"...is the worldwide headquarters of FIGU, the Free Interest Association for Border and Humanities and Ufology Studies.The Semjase-Silver-Star-Center, with all its facilities, teaches creative laws and commandments as well as spiritual teaching." Additionally, FIGU says that their main purpose is: "The aim of the FIGU is the worldwide dissemination of the truth, together with Billy and with the help of the Pleiadians / Plejaren and other life forms of non-earthly origin, but the truth are knowledgeable and since time immemorial after the universal truth and live their lives according to the peaceful criteria and implications of the same. The goal of the FIGU is further, that through the doctrine of truth, the life of all human beings according to creative laws and commandments is designed, and that the application of the truth and its laws and commandments in a creative-orderly and creative way, successful application to find the earthman." Though the headquarters of FIGU is based in Switzerland, they have organizations in 12 other countries. They are funded by their membership system which, at their lowest tier, is required to pay the following:
So, for example, if you were a Swiss member of FIGU then you would have to pay (30 + 30 + 90 + 466.83 + 210) 826.83 CHF in your first year, if you have an average monthly salary in Switzerland and were not able to work at the Semjase Silver Star Center (SSSC) for your required 3 days. This is just over 1% of your total average annual salary that you would be paying to FIGU, for the least expensive membership. Oh, and if you work your required 3 days at the SSSC then you have to camp on-site or book a hotel because "We do not offer any accommodation facilities at the center." and though breakfast is provided while you are working at the center, there is a charge of CHF 10.00 for lunch and dinner. It is not publicly available how many members they have worldwide. So FIGU is supposed to be this egalitarian, open, and voluntary society (definitely not a cult) BUT membership is limited to those who can pay for it and those who "choose" to become members are likely already indoctrinated into the teaching of Billy Meier, the figurehead and core-philosopher of the organization. FIGU, in addition to being highly invested in "UFOlogy" is also an advocate of population control through state sanctioned regulation whereby women are restricted to having 3 children, so long as they follow a long list of rules, and alternating 7 year periods where procreation is allowed and then 7 years when it is not, and so on. According to this anti-overpopulation plan, written by Christian Frehner who is a FIGU Core Group member, the penalties for breaking these rules are that the child you conceived will be taken from you and put for adoption as well as that both parents will be sterilized. Certainly no one is FOR overpopulation but what FIGU proposes as a solution which is essentially a eugenics program: people are selected due to their favorable characteristics such as age, status, income, and lack of hereditary diseases and "mental handicaps". If anyone reading this has seen the bio-punk movie Gattaca, FIGU's plan to curb overpopulation may seem eerily familiar as the movie describes a "future society driven by eugenics where potential children are conceived through genetic selection to ensure they possess the best hereditary traits of their parents". In this text written by Christian Frehner, it is very careful to lure the reader in so as not to scare them off with the proposed eugenics program: "The fight against overpopulation is only one of many important issues that are pursued by FIGU or its members, and presented to the public. One the one hand, the focus of our activities lies on the fulfillment of one’s own self-responsibility in connection with performing and developing one’s own intrinsic values and realizations (virtues, character, striving for the truth, etc.)..." It seems to me, according to their manifesto, that this kind of strict program does not adhere to their ideals regarding education as well as for fulfilling one's own self-responsibility. It is an extreme measure and is highly unlikely to ever be taken seriously but it gives insight into the organization. This is one example where their ultimate goal is noble, in that they want to create a more sustainable world but where the way of reaching that goal is morally questionable (at best). This example can give us some insight into their written organizational principals also, as most or all of them are noble at face-value but there are hints, when reading about them or watching their videos and when getting deeper into their dogma, that there is something more nefarious happening. Even if FIGU does not actually fit all of the criteria of a cult, it is certainly cult-ish. As an another example, they say that "We fight against all women's discrimination and the abuse of women." but in their document on curbing overpopulation, they relegate the woman back to traditional gender norms. So, within the organization there are these lofty progressive ideas but then they are underpinned by conservatism. Everything about the organization, the mythology surrounding Billy Meier and their current practices are interesting and complicated and cult-ish. As an outsider/non-member to the organization there is a lot of information available regarding their philosophies but it is impossible to know how exactly they function as their is still a veil of exclusion which exists between non members and members. At least superficially, they are very reminiscent of Scientology, just smaller and based out of Switzerland. There are certain people who exist as public figures and political actors who are able to create a false mythology surrounding themselves in order to lure supporters. Through their doctrines they create an alternate-reality which is accepted as the truth while the actual reality is regarded as fake. Such chicanery plays on the desires held by some to believe in something, which then benefits those at the top of the pyramid. There's probably no solution to this problem but perhaps it can curbed by humanizing people, empathizing with them, and learning about their beliefs so that there can be a discussion about it, rather than an argument. The only way to find the truth is to cross-reference sources and to examine all of the positions, especially when you don't agree with them, and treat each one with equal scrutiny and skepticism. The appealing illustration at the top of this post led me on a journey to research FIGU, the Semjase Silver Star Center (SSSC), and Billy Meier by investigating the content they've made available. Through this, I have concluded that they are an organization which profits a few few individuals while taking advantage of their membership and sometimes acts contrarily to their manifesto. I suppose the point of all of this is that we have to learn about the things which we don't understand, through a great deal of inquiry, in order to eventually reach a semi-accurate conclusion. Is the truth still out there? Sources:

From the vaccum of space4/13/2018 The photo is from page 192 of 'The History of Rocketry and Space Travel' found in the Bibliothek Andreas Zust and added to the Z Files archives. The picture depicts a alien, floating above our planet and using a compressed air gun to propel himself through the vacuum.
We can assume this photo is real, because we trust the source that it comes from. Our understanding of the indifferent truth is reliant on the trustworthiness of experts and witnesses to it. Truth and trust are therefor deeply intertwined as the former is defined by the later. Trustworthy sources come as unbiased and without ulterior motive. For example, the majority of scientists have concluded that human induced climate change is the truth however there are some which deny this truth who do so because it benefits them to hold that position. Ulterior motives can come in many forms; keeping one's job or funding, pushing one's agenda, spectacle and attention, political benefit and so on. So when we look for the truth in order to try to understand reality, we not only have to understand what is being presented to us but to be aware of what is behind that presentation. The relationship between the two is how we can determine the trustworthiness of the source and therefor the truth of reality. Archive awakened4/7/2018 Been scouring the archives looking for evidence. Piles of books on the table, scanning images from each that seem useful or important. The sound of the scanner echoes in my ears. Found this diagram of different UFO profiles in the Das Geheimnis der unbekannten Flugobjekte by Adolf Schneider and Hubert Malthaner. I will keep it in mind as I look to the skies of Appenzelland. #IsTheTruthStillOutThere?
