We pick up the recorded interview
                      in Herminio's words:

                      (Herminio had been a Jehova
                      withess pastor for many years, and was well eduacated- and
                      the investigator here; Rudolfo R. Casellato, writes the
                      withness here seemed to be very honest, and credible, and
                      after this adventure, he has got a bigger view on God, the
                      universe, and religion).
                    
                    
                    "Bianca and I were travelling
                    from Rio de Janeiro to Belo Horizonte on a highway that
                    connects both capitals. When we were close to the city of
                    Juiz de Fora, in the state of Minas Gerais, and also near
                    the city of Mathias Barbosa, which is before the city of
                    Juiz de Fora, I began to feel very sleepy.(map at the bottom
                    at this site) I told Bianca I
                    am going to stop the car here in order to rest for a while.
                    I am going to close my eyes for 15 or 20 minutes because I
                    am so tired. And I did that. My car was a Karman Ghia,
                    1965, yellow color, and this was on January 12th, 1976.
                    "it was night time, about
                    11:30 at night, and I stooped the car on the shoulder of the
                    highway and reclined myself in the seat and fell right to
                    sleep. Bianca was awake and smoking as she looked ahead up
                    the road. I had told her not to sleep because we might sleep
                    too long and I had a very important meeting in Belo
                    Horizonte, and I should be there in the morning. So she
                    should wake me in 20 minutes and we would proceed with the
                    trip. I always did that, stopping along the road to sleep
                    for a little while, and I always travelled during the night
                    because I liked to drive at night. I also needed the day for
                    work. At that time I was also selling the Encyclopedia
                    Brittanica. I was going to meet friends in Belo Horizonte
                    also.
                    "Bianca later told me how
                    everything started. She said that she saw a light in the
                    sky, and that light was moving from one side to the other,
                    like a hot air balloon. (In Brasil people rnake hot air
                    balloons of silk paper with a candle or wad of oil-soaked
                    rag inside to heat the air) We used to live in Rio where
                    people release balloons like this the year round. As Bianca,
                    if I was wake I also would have considered it a balloon. I -
                    or we, never thought that flying saucers existed, or
                    extra-terrestrials and their spacecraft. I was a Pastor of
                    the Jehova's Witnesses Church, and as pastor and head of the
                    congregation, I would not have accepted any idea of the
                    existence of other life in other worlds, no matter who told
                    me.
                    "It so happened that the light
                    was getting closer to the car, and Bianca was disturbed by
                    the luminosity in the sky. She found that "balloon"
                    beautiful, and suddenly had the impression that it fell
                    because the light went out. and that was all. Then suddenly
                    she saw a glow
 on
                    the ground, like a lightning flash, ahead and to her right,
                    but out of the road, and she thought it might be a
                    short-circuit in the high tension lines along the road there.
                    She was concentrating on the light when she saw a black
                    shadow.
                     
                    
                    the shape of the craft that took
                    the whole car into a bigger mothership was something like
                    this acc. to the drawing in the book - but picture here is
                    not from the book!
                     
                     The night was dark
                    but she could still see something coming from the sky, and
                    passing directly over the car! At that point she screamed,
                    and that scream woke me up. It was a scream of terror! 'Herminio,
                    an airplane is going to fall on the car,' Bianca screamed! I
                    woke up frightened, and at that moment I was paralyzed in
                    position. I was trying to get out of the car and I was
                    paralyzed in that position. I tried to overcome the power
                    but was helpless. 
                    I was completely
                    paralyzed,... feeling a strange sensation, like everything
                    inside me wanted to come out of my mouth. The sensation that
                    I felt at that moment was like an elevator trip at high
                    velocity. I do not remember how long that took. I can only
                    say that everything stopped as quickly as it started. My
                    movements were free again and normal. Suddenly it was no
                    longer night, but like I was under the sun in daylight. I
                    was under a light like the mid-day sun, and I was no longer
                    on the road, and was still in my car! We were all inside a
                    round room, where the light a luminous light, was coming
                    from the wall sides. It was like if I was inside a light
                    bulb, but the only place that was not illuminated was the
                    ceiling. In the ceiling was a large apparatus that looked
                    like an exhaust ventilator. And we were frightened. What
                    could this be? I want to leave the car but Bianca is holding
                    me saying, 'Don't go out', and she was crying. I was
                    frightened and my heart was beating very hard. I could never
                    think that I was being kidnapped, and I don't know if this
                    is the correct word, but kidnapped by a flying saucer,
                    because I was not a person that would be attracted to this
                    type of studies, about saucers and ETs, because I was
                    completely ignorant in this respect. And Bianca also, like
                    me, was ignorant on the subject.
                    "Besides the apparatus I saw
                    on the ceiling, there were also smaller appliances around
                    the room. And there was a curious thing ahead of us, and I
                    could see it from my seat inside the car. A stair, aluminium
                    color, went up in a curve, ending on the top of the ceiling
                    of the room we were in. But there was no opening, so why
                    would it end in the ceiling? Start from the floor and end in
                    the ceiling, and it was not in a spiral but a gentle curve
                    going up. We were there sitting in the car and looking at
                    that room, worried. I was trying to calm Bianca, telling her
                    that it could be possible that we were being taken by
                    Americans -- american Scientists -- or Russians, and
                    possibly we were mistaken for somebody, like scientists, or
                    something like that, and possibly when they would find out
                    their mistake they would release us, and let us go. Maybe we
                    were not the important persons they were looking for. A
                    confusion must have been made some-place. But we could never
                    stop thinking that we were inside something that came from
                    the sky, like a flying saucer! So, Sr. Casellato, at the top
                    of that stair, in the ceiling, a hole was suddenly visible,
                    like a round covering was open, and we were upset wondering
                    what would come through that hole!
                    
                    Rodolfo-(the interviewer) Was there
                    anybody in that room beside you?
                    
                    Herminio- No. We were alone inside
                    the car and the apartus was all around us, and in that
                    beautiful illumination. Suddenly a man started coming down
                    the stair, and after him another one! Two men were coming
                    down, and they seemed to talk with someone that was on the
                    upper floor from where they came. It seemed that somebody
                    was asking them a question, and they would respond and
                    answer. That would mean there should be another room beside
                    the one we were in at that moment. And then they came up
                    close to us. We saw that they were two men, very tall, a
                    little over 2.0 meters tall. They were wearing white
                    overalls, and they were coming up to us while they were
                    talking. They were smiling, with beautiful white teeth. The
                    skin was like a bronze color, and I thought what kind of
                    people are they?
                    Germans? Russians? Or what race
                    were they? I also noticed when they came closer that that
                    skin color I had never seen before. They were very beautiful
                    people, with large green eyes, oblique, but the eyes were
                    positioned a little different from our own. Our eyes end at
                    the side of the head in a point. But their eyes were just
                    the opposite. The point was close to the nose and not at the
                    side of the head. They looked like oriental eyes, but in
                    reverse. We see oriental eyes pulled to the sides, but
                    theirs was reversed and pulled to the front, towards the
                    nose, and the round end was at the side of the head. They
                    were very nice looking. They had nice long black hair, worn
                    to the neck,
                    and neatly cut horizontally across
                    the bottom. While they were approaching, I noticed that
                    their coverall was brilliant, giving the impression that the
                    color would change with the ambient light. When they came
                    closer, I started talking and cursing them, and trying to
                    start a fight, and yelling at them, 'Who are you people!
                    What do you want with us? Why did you do this? Where are we?'
                    And I was gesturing and insisting in more questions and more
                    questions still.
                    
                    Rodolfo- What kind of language did
                    they speak?
                    
                    Herminio- I will come to that.
                    T'hey were talking in a language very similar to French, at
                    least it sounded like that to me, seemed to be close to it.
                    I don't speak French but I know the meaning of some words
                    and I know when I hear it. I saw that it was like French,
                    but it was not French... One of them went behind my car and
                    the other went to the right side of the car and made a
                    gesture to Bianca to get out of the car, which she did
                    helped by me because the door on her side would get stuck
                    and I had to hit it with my hand to open it. My car was an
                    old one, and I had the impression that he already understood
                    that because he helped me open the door. When Bianca was
                    getting out he took her arm, and without waiting for an
                    invitation I went out the door on my side and was taken by
                    the hand of the other one who had gone around the back of
                    the car. I hit his hand trying to make him let go. I am not
                    too tall, so I was near the height of his belly button. I
                    was feeling like a dwarf, and that strong warm hand
                    was holding my arm, and I was trying to get myself free from
                    him with no success. I had the impression that he was
                    holding us in the air. And so in this way we were going in
                    the direction of a hole that was in the floor behind the car.
                    We went down by a stair, and then I understood why they were
                    holding us all the time. It was because we could not feel
                    the ground (floor)!!!
                    
                    Rodolfo- Does that mean you were
                    skidding on the floor?
                    Herminio- No. We were light, very light, and could not walk
                    normally. I had the impression that we were like stepping
                    and not finding the step.
                    
                    Rodolfo- Loss of equilibrium?
                    
                    Herminio- Yes, exactly, loss of
                    equilibrium. You step on the ground but you don't feel it ..
                    .even though you are
                    on the ground. Up to now there was
                    nothing about flying saucers, nothing about ..... I thought
                    at that moment that they were people from here, that they
                    had gotten us by mistake and were going to do some
                    experiment with us. And there I really became afraid,
                    because they were people completely umknown to us. And in my
                    mind I was connected to God, with Jehova, and I thought I
                    was having a bad dream, something bad, that could not be
                    real, and I wanted to wake up from this situation! As soon
                    as we got down we reached a metal floor, and I was looking
                    up, looking at where I came from, and I looked around. I had
                    the lmpression that we were in a hangar, also round but very
                    big, maybe the size of a city block, real big one... And
                    there, there were many objects, like the same one from which
                    we were taken, and there were smaller and bigger craft also.
                    But in the center there was a bigger one!
                    
                    Rodolfo- In the form of a discus?...
                    
                    Herminio- No, they were more like
                    fire-fighter hats, higher in the middle. It was like the
                    discs (UFOs) that are usually seen today, but the upper part
                    was much taller. There were no windows, but in certain parts
                    of the craft we could see outside. From the outside you
                    can't see in but from the inside we were able to see out,
                    but as mentioned, only from certain parts of the ship, in a
                    place that looked like a windshield.
                    
                    Rodolfo- What color was this window?
                    And the craft?
                    
                    Herminio- They were a little
                    different from the rest of the wall, but it was dull, like
                    the other parts inside, and the color was like a lead color.
                    I did not have a chance to come closer but saw it from a
                    distance. The ships looked from outside like they were made
                    from aluminium.... From outside we could see that it was
                    like aluminium in color, but in these places that I call
                    win-dows the aluminium was a little lighter color, so we
                    were able to distinguish it. Outside, in the outer part, the
                    round part, when they start to depart, a ring, where there
                    is another ring that looks like it is made of crystal, clear
                    crystal, they became incandescent...
                    
                    Rodolfo- Is it clear as crystal.
                    
                    Herminio- I do not know if it like
                    a crystal... look like crystal? is crystal. It is clear that
                    the ring is like
                    the energy collector, they said
                    that this mechanism that they called a "montagem"
                    (assembly), collects electrons from the air, the electrons
                    that come from our sun, and the electrons charge the
                    batteries, and the batteries take the electrons to the
                    engines of the ship. That is why when they come close to a
                    car, it lose all its electrical power, and when going over a
                    city it makes the city go dark, because they use all the
                    electrons that are in the wires, and they suck up all the
                    energy, electrical energy that is made by electrons. When
                    they come close, or fly low, it is like they take that
                    energy with them...
                    
                    Rodolfo- Did you travel in one of
                    those machines?
                    
                    Herminio- I told you that. I was
                    taken by one of the machines, and that one went into a
                    bigger machine, that I now know is called a mother-ship. I
                    did not see the mother-ship from outside; and I did not walk
                    through it while I was there inside. This is a drawing I am
                    making so you can see how it was. It was landed on three
                    supports like this... (sketching). I am not a
                    good artist but this will give you an idea of the shape of
                    the ship. From the "hangar" we went to a wall and
                    a door opened like the doors you see in a super market, or
                    airports, opened to the sides, in two parts, one goes to the
                    left and the other to the right at the same time. When we
                    were walking to the wall I saw no door and I was upset, then
                    the wall opened up and we got into an elevator there.
                    Something like we already know here.
                    When the door opened again we came out into a room, of a
                    squared shape, filled with apparatus, and they were ugly.
                    They were the same color as the walls. We had the impression
                    that the room was empty, but it was filled with these
                    apparatus. They were spread out and joined to the walls, and
                    now the light was not coming from the walls, but from the
                    ceiling, like the sunlight and Must as brilliant, but with
                    no central light focus or source. And interestingly, there
                    were some seats that did not look like the kind we are
                    accustomed to. They were not similar to our chairs or
                    lounges, but were like two cylinders, round and tall. They
                    made us sit there, and when we sat there it felt very soft,
                    very sensitive and after you sat or while you were sitting
                    they took the form of your body and then is transformed into
                    a
                    lounge and they followed your
                    movements whether you shifted left or right or lay back. If
                    you lay down it is a bed. But our feet did not touch the
                    floor because they were tall. Possibly they were made for
                    them being such tall people and not for us who were like
                    dwarfs compared to them.
                    "It was there that they
                    performed on us many kinds of physical examinations. They
                    passed an instrument the size of your recorder (a
                    mini-recorder) through our arms and it felt like the hair on
                    the skin stood up. At that moment we felt a kind of
                    anesthesia or numbness, and the instrument was taking some
                    readings but I don't know what they were. Later they used an
                    apparatus like a looking glass that was made like a tube,
                    like the one an ophthalmologist uses to look into your eyes
                    (possibly a light conducting glass rod. or some kind of
                    fibre-oMic type viewing instrument). When he used this
                    apparatus I had the impression that he would press a button
                    and the whole instrument glowed with red light, and the
                    light was the same color as the energy collector that I
                    mentioned before. And he was looking with this inside our
                    eyes, like as if he could see behind our eyes into our
                    brains and parts inside, or maybe' he was examining our eye
                    structure. He did not say what he was doing so I do not
                    know... Later, they placed us inside a transparent box that
                    seemed to be made of glass. First they put Bianca inside it,
                    through a door that opened in one of the sides. There were
                    two red lights that emitted a di-fuse red light, one in the
                    top and one in the side, but I did not see what they showed.
                    After Bianca was put inside the box it started turning
                    red... and Bianca was bathed in that red light on all sides.
                    From outside I could hardly see Bianca inside... I could
                    only see her shadow inside, and I became desperate...
                    
                    Rodolfo- And how was Bianca feelinq?
                    
                    Herminio- I don't know. She was
                    standing there inside, standing still... I did not know what
                    was happening because very little could I see of what was
                    happening to her. I tried to get up and get closer to the
                    box, and to save Bianca, because I thought she might be
                    getting fried or baked alive... or killing her because the
                    light was the color of fire. One of these beings placed his
                    hand over my shoulder and kept me there seated….
                    
                (From 
                page 145 continues)
                
                    And I was talking
                    without interruption, very nervous with fear, and very
                    frightened. Because at that time I came to the conclusion
                    that we were inside of a "flying saucer". I had
                    told Bianca before that if we were inside a flying saucer we
                    would never get back home! And according to the little I had
                    heard about them, people picked up by them would end up
                    crazy. That's what some people said of these things. By now
                    I was certain that I was inside one of these machines, but I
                    was not sure if they really were from another planet...
                    because, according to what I had learned from the Bible,
                    life originated here on Earth, and that is what I also used
                    to teach... that life had originated here from Adam and Eve,
                    and never in space!
                    "Well after
                    some time the light was diminishing, till everything was
                    clear again and they had Bianca removed and she was allright,
                    and then they put me inside and then I knew what that red
                    light does to the body. The light paralizes you, and besides
                    that, all the hair on your body stands up and you have the
                    impression that you and your whole body gets bigger, swollen
                    and the whole body goes into a nameless condition. There is
                    a high point and then it starts diminishing until it is
                    completely gone and you are back in your normal state. They
                    open the door and you get out and they do not explain
                    anything. Until that moment was not answered to me anything
                    despite the fact that I was always asking them questions...
                    And I came to the conclusion that they did not understand
                    what I was saying, and we did not understand what they were
                    saying. Later, they touched my chest with another apparatus,
                    and then the bottom of that thing came out and hit my chest
                    and I became unconscious, I blanked out...
                    Bianca told me
                    later that, after that one of them left, and she was
                    standing there alone with the other one, and me unconscious.
                    Bianca was crying desperately because she thought I was
                    killed and were dead! He seemed to understand the
                    nervousness and desperation of Bianca. She wished to come
                    closer to me but he would not let her. He was making a
                    gesture to her by putting his fingers close to his nose and
                    breathing heavily, trying to make her understand that I was
                    alive! Bianca was not comforted and was not satisfied by his
                    explanations and was still very nervous. It was then that he
                    took a small apparatus and pointing it at objects items
                    inside that room, would make them fly close to the face of
                    Bianca, and make them float and perform manoeuvres there in
                    the air. He smiled and seemed to want to call Bianca's
                    attention to these effects so she would stop worrying about
                    me. Soon I started removing, showing that I was alive, and I
                    tried to sit up, and at that moment I was conscious of
                    everything that was happening. When the being that left
                    before returned to the room, they came close to me and
                    Bianca and took now Bianca by the arm and me by the hand,
                    and took us to another room where the walls looked like they
                    were made of polished silver. There were enormous machines
                    inside that room. It was a very silent place, almost
                    impossibly silent! A feeling of peace and tranquillity.
                     
                    
                    Rodolfo- A mystic
                    silence?
                    
                    Herminio- I don't
                    know if it was mystic or not.. .1 could not even think or
                    rationalize on that... Again they have us seated in lounges
                    of the same type as before, and now they are telling me by
                    signs that they are going to put some equipment on our heads,
                    which they then proceeded to do, a helmet filled with wires
                    and little lights. They put these things on me and Bianca.
                    They also put on our arms an apparatus like a large bracelet.
                    It was connected to something by wires. Then they seated
                    them-selves in other seats. I was facing Bianca and they
                    were facing both of us. At our sides there was a big
                    equipment console that went from floor to ceiling, covered
                    also with lights, indicators, and other things of that kind,
                    and also what looked like buttons and knobs. I do not know
                    what they were for. And then a third person came into the
                    room, because until that moment I only knew two people. The
                    third took a look at us and went to the machine connecting
                    all the cables that were around on the floor. He connected
                    the cables to the machine that was at our side. He also
                    connected the big bracelet that we had, with wires, to
                    another small box that was at one side. With Bianca he did
                    the same thing. He took the wires that were coming from her
                    helmet and connected them to the two extraterrestrial's
                    helmets, and then he left saying nothing to anybody. But I
                    noticed something interesting. They look as if they were all
                    twins, they all looked the same! There was only a
                    slight difference between them. One may be a little taller
                    than the other. Later I was to find that they were all like
                    that, because they are all of one race only. On their planet
                    there is only one race and one type of people. They call
                    their planet Terra (like we call our Earth in Portugese
                    --Terra).
                     
                    After the third man
                    left they started talking to each other. One of them had a
                    large aparatus on his lap, that he was working on, like a
                    calculator, with an old style adding machine, filled with a
                    lot of small lights. He was working with this machine while
                    talking to the other. Colored lights went on and off as he
                    was talking and operating that machine on his lap. Here on
                    Earth he would be considered a vary fast typist by the way
                    he was operating the machine. While he was typing on that
                    machine lights would light up in the helmet on his head, and
                    in the one on the other also, and in the machine beside us
                    the lights were running fast. A blue light like an electric
                    welder's torch would also shoot through the console and we
                    were enchanted by the beauty of the lights. Suddenly Bianca
                    said to me, 'now, they are talking to me.' But I was not
                    hearing anything and I said, 'Why aren't they talking to me
                    also? What are they telling you?' ..
                    He had directed his
                    attention to Bianca and was talking to her, and I heard
                    Bianca saying, 'Thank you, thank you, and who are you?' But
                    I could not hear the answers. I could only see Bianca's head
                    nodding, meaning that she was understanding what they were
                    saying. Then he made a signal to Bianca meaning that he was
                    going to stop, and directed his attention to me. Then
                    suddenly I heard in my ears (the helmets had a bulge in the
                    side like earphones) and I heard a voice in Portugese saying
                    to me, 'Be welcome,' and I was surprised by this. I did not
                    handle myself as calmly as Bianca. She looked calm. I do not
                    remember if I answered his greeting. I didn't know what to
                    do. I felt a blank in my mind, a kind of confusion.
                    That came to my
                    mind since I was a very religious man who would not believe
                    in "flying saucers", and a man who thought that
                    the flying saucers were not from heaven, but something that
                    came from the devil; the first thing that came to my mind
                    was to ask him, 'who are you? ...And he answered, 'I am
                    Karran.'
                    And Immediately I
                    asked him, 'Karran, from where, from what nation?' And he
                    answered. 'From no nation!!' 'How no nation?... From another
                    planet?' And then the answer was positive. 'Yes, from
                    another land.'
                    How?... From
                    another land?'
                    I asked... 'How
                    from another land! If the Bible does not say anything about
                    this...'
                     
                    Karran- 'We are
                    from other land, and from a distance not known yet to the
                    men of your land...
                     
                    Herminio- And
                    suddenly the facts from the Bible came to my mind and I
                    thought I was talking with the devil himself, and I started
                    to exorcise, 'In the name of Jesus I want you to be gone!...'
                    And I raised my voice eloquently and I started throwing over
                    him all my knowledge, my biblical knowledge, and I was
                    thinkinq that all this was a vision, that it was not real,
                    and that it was prepared by the devil himself, and I started
                    to exorcise again. I was quoting bible texts. I involved the
                    name of Jesus, and so on, and so on, until I emptied all my
                    knowledge about the subject! and my voice was going lower
                    and low..... and I was looking to him and him looking at me,
                    without any interferrence.
                    He never stopped me.
                    He let me speak until the end of my voice... until I was w
                    then I stopped. And he kept looking at me silently and
                    probing my thoughts. Then there was a deep silence, and then
                    I heard his voice talking to me in my own language, in
                    Portugese...
                     
                    Karran- 'I am
                    Karran. Did you finish?...'
                     
                    Herminio- 'Yes!'
                    And then he asked....
                     
                    Karran- 'Do all the
                    people in your land think like you?..'
                     
                    Herminio- 'No!...'
                    And then deep within myself, I said to myself, 'How stupid I
                    am! How stupid I am!!' And in that moment I felt sorry for
                    myself. I felt sorry for not knowing before things relating
                    to Ufos and extraterrestrial beings, or even science
                    fictions. I was not a person interested in this subject and
                    was never interested... and that hurt me in some way. As you
                    see, Casellato, I went over him with Bible facts, and
                    everything, and I asked him, 'Is there religion in your
                    land, where you come from?' . Because I was a religious man
                    and I had to know if he was a religious man like myself! And
                    I asked him again, 'Is there religion in your land?' and he
                    answered...
                     
                    Karran- 'There is
                    no need for religion. We do not have need for religion.'
                    (He was speaking in
                    his language, but the machine was translating it into
                    Portugese for our ears, and when we talked the machine would
                    instantly translate it into his language and he would hear
                    the translation in his own language.)
                    Herminio- 'But the
                    Bible? Don't you have a bible?.. There there is the word of
                    god?'
                    And he said that he
                    knew of that document, that we call Bible, from people from
                    our earth... I found this strange, but since I was not aware
                    of all the facts... I continued to ask about If he ever saw
                    and if he had ever come close to the presence of god... And
                    if God is in a shape like us... Well, you see, a man like me,
                    who has been teaching all about God for twelve years... was
                    there asking of a stranger... asking everything about God
                    from somebody that was saying that he has no religion... And
                    I suddenly felt, from the way he was speaking, that he had a
                    knowledge about God that I could never imagine or think! He
                    taught me not to believe in the existence of any. But he had
                    transmitted to me -- a knowledge about God that I could
                    never think of!! He taught me not to believe in the
                    existence of God... But the way to feel his existence, HIS
                    EXISTENCE! 
                     So he was saying that they love Him and respect
                    Him by the ground that you step on, and he showed me the
                    floor, and we also walk on; by the air that you breathe, and
                    that we also breathe; and by the water that you drink, and
                    we too... And he continued to say that everything that you
                    do, whether to watch and admire or to feed yourself, dress,
                    everything comes from the supreme creator, and it is through
                    all these things that we love him and respect him... And
                    that the answer that I want to know about God was never
                    answered to any living being here on this planet, or to any
                    other living being on any other planet, and that these are
                    answers that nobody has - who is God and where is He... or
                    how He really is...
                    And our
                    conversation was extending itself into religion. He returned
                    many times to talk with Bianca, and I could hear Bianca
                    asking questions but could not hear the answers, because
                    they would talk, like on different channels. When he spoke
                    and gave answers to Bianca I could not hear. The same
                    happened when he spoke to me, Bianca could not hear it. I
                    had the impression that he wanted us to talk to him. And
                    before he spoke all of this to me, he said that I should
                    calm and be tranquil. because we would be returning to our
                    land (soon), and it was then that I asked him, where were we,
                    and he said that the place where we were wasn't important.
                    What was important was where we had come from! That was the
                    matter of importance for them. I also asked other questions
                    about their planet, how they live, and we had a very
                    interesting talk about that.
                    Because they all
                    seem to be of the same age, I asked him if they grow old as
                    we do, and he said that their age is not related to the age
                    of matter, and I found that strange -- that they do not get
                    old.. They do not calculate the time as we do; or the time
                    of an existence. To illustrate, he said that he was older
                    than the oldest ancestor of Bianca! That means he would have
                    to be over 500 - 1,000 years old. And
                    he looked young, like an age of 25 years...
                    
                     
                    
                    Herminio- - Do they
                    look like they exist physically, like us.
                    
                     
                    Yes, They were as
                    physical as we are on this plane, and he was telling me that
                    they know a process in wich they can keep the cells of
                    matter, or our body, alive and renewing for a long, long
                    time; and that they also separate from matter, like we
                    separate from matter, but it takes a much longer time than
                    for us, and what we call death they call a separation frem
                    matter...
                    They said that when
                    matter (corporeal matter) reaches a certain stage, when the
                    cells are no longer able to rejuvenate or reproduce
                    themselves, and when they do not have more reasons to
                    continue alive, that they leave the body and the matter is
                    destroyed. And then they return into a new body, in the body
                    of a newborn (infant) by the same process as we do, by
                    sexual reproduction, though they have other processes also,
                    but the normal process of reproduction, the original process,
                    is the most perfect that exists, and it is the correct
                    process. And when the new matter is prepared (corporeal
                    matter) it is transfused with the old body knowledge so that
                    all the kwowledge before, is maintained forever and they do
                    not lose their previous consciousness. They said that we
                    same thing happens to us. The
                    only thing that is different is that we are not conscious of
                    the fact.
                    
                    We kept talking
                    till the moment that he wanted to know about my faith, in
                    what I believed and do not believe. That was when we talked
                    about our spirit... I was telling him that my religion
                    taught that in the event of death or loss of the body, we
                    would not be alive like a spirit, or as a soul or energy,
                    and at the time of death the body would be destroyed, but
                    the memories of our life lived as a human being, and the
                    good accowlished and good actions, and the will of God,
                    would be engraved in the God-memory, and we would await the
                    noment of resurrection, and then God would make a new body
                    of matter again and would incarnate in that body the
                    previous personality and make it come to life again. I was
                    telling this to him, that this was taught by my religion.
                     
                    
                    Rodolfo- And what
                    did he say?
                     
                    
                    Herninio- He said
                    that he would not tell me about that matter. He said the
                    matter (corporeal) of your body could not answer anything
                    without any real presence, and he was tellinq me that I
                    should know myself, that I should get out of my body in
                    order to have the awareness of the spiritual being that we
                    all are, including him, himself. That we lost that type of
                    consciousness including other registers of knowledge,
                    because of a cosmic accident. That accident was responsible
                    for our separation and prevented the interchange that
                    existed between many races. We have suffered from that lack
                    of interchange due to the accident with planet Earth. That
                    accident affected not only our planet, but also all in the
                    system. It was affected by the excess radiation that came
                    from our sun. Karran said that in a time already lost in the
                    ages our sun gave out many solar explosions on a large scale,
                    and the explosions generated a great energywave that blew up
                    the protective systems of our planet. A system of radiation
                    filters was broken. And these excesses of radiation in
                    pulsating waves, has pushed our planet from its original
                    position in space, and at the same time the earth suffered
                    an acceleration in its movements, and shifted its own axis.
                    An overflow of sea waters in great tidal waves reached high
                    levels and cities and habitation centers that existed here
                    before. And the seas destroying these life centers seriously
                    damaged this planet, destroying almost everything that was
                    here... at that time. (Same told by in some of the
                    rampa-books - study them on lobsang-rampa.net rø-remark)
                    But the major consequence of that
                    were not the material damage, but the excess of radiation
                    penetrating the matter body of the arrivals. He said that
                    the brain activity was diminished and we lost our ....... We
                    lost the register of knowledge of ourselves, we lost the
                    knowledge of ourselves and we became brutes, aggressive...
                    We became like ....... And he said that the excess of
                    radiation created a magnetic barrier between this system and
                    their system, and they could not get through that barrier,
                    and that it took almost 3,000 years (of our time) till they
                    could come through again. They did not come through during
                    that time because of the excess radiation, which was
                    damaging to them.
                    "Something that I found very
                    interesting, Casellato, he said that a strong register (memory)
                    was kept very strong in the minds of the people of this
                    planet, by the survivors. He said two registers were alive
                    in the minds of the people. One was a natural register that
                    is very strong, and even the solar radiation did not destroy
                    it.
                    It was greatly diminished but not
                    erased. And the other is in trauma. That is the register of
                    God existence, of a Creator, of Something Superior. Even
                    with their minds fogged by their diminished brain activities,
                    by the lack of activity in memory, man looks for God. As a
                    result of this trauma, every time they approached the
                    inhabitants of this planet they were received as if they
                    were Gods and were adored as Gods come from Heaven (the sky)
                    They were persecuted by others, and sometimes attacked, in
                    fear as a result of the trauma. He said that we are
                    descendents of 11 other races that came from many of the
                    inhabited planets, and came to our Earth. And I am going to
                    use a word that I don't much like --They colonized,
                    they built inhabited centers here. Each race had its
                    own way of living, their own technology, but they lived in
                    peace with each other. The Earth was then in its own correct
                    position, which did not offer danger to the minds of the
                    people!
                    "And he said that many of
                    these races disappeared --after that accident, the cosmic
                    accident. And after all this a new 12th race emerged in this
                    land.
                    
                    Rodolfo- Did they mix their own
                    race with us? Was there any race here at that time?
                    
                    Herminio- No, there was no other
                    race here at that time.
                    They supplied the
                    matter for the new race, in order for a new race to be
                    formed here, but a few people survived, so we may say that
                    there were some people here. He said that the races that
                    were here at the beginning of the accident expected that
                    craft would arrive in the sky, and would take them away frem
                    this planet, but they did not know, or were not conscious of
                    the magnetic barrier that existed at that time which
                    originated from the solar activity and prohibited the
                    outsiders frwn coming in. Help could not come in and the
                    people who were here could not get out. And that expectation,
                    that salvation would come from the sky, was registered in
                    the minds even till today... You may note this in all the
                    religions of Earth. And they teach that we will depart to
                    the sky...
                    "And he
                    continued, saying that this is deeply engraved in our
                    memories, and we still hope today that they will come to
                    save us from this Earth, that they will come to solve our
                    problems, and to remove us from here. All the religions, he
                    said, in one way or another teach something like that. They
                    teach us that when we die we go to Heaven (the sky), and
                    that Jesus will come from Heaven (again the sky), and will
                    take us to Heaven. Some say that we are exiled from other
                    planets, that we are here to pay for our sins, and so on.
                    The theories are many. Perhaps they do agree in some
                    respects with what Karran said... about that...
                     
                    ***
                    "When we
                    returned to Earth we found that we had been missing for two
                    days, which we were not even aware of. We had talked a lot
                    with Karran. He taught us many new things. We were feeling,
                    and still feel, like we had taken a trip into the future
                    where we saw and touched things, marvelous things, fantastic
                    things. And then we returned to the past, and the past is
                    our present, in which we are living now... and we can do
                    almost nothing about it. We are plagued with a burning
                    question.. Why?
                    Why? We know a few
                    things. We know how to do a few things. I teach those
                    techniques in this school, here in Sao Paulo. We teach
                    people to know themselves, because they said that the
                    elevation of the consciousness of man on this planet, is
                    going to bring us closer to them. It would not be a military
                    contact. It would not be a government to government contact,
                    nor from people to people, but
                    a contact with a humanity thinking with a different head,
                    thinking the way they think.

          Another remarkable case in Botucatu
          
          Intro - we know from esp. " UFO
          Abduction At Botucatu" that much ufo activity seemed to be ongong
          there in that region. Here another case some years ahead of that other,
          in that same city in Brazil. And so one could speculate if this early
          visit there, was a kind of prepartion for those that happend later…?
