It was in this state of mind that I recognized the finality of the messages; first, I recognized, then I digested in a long digestive process, which had its periods of activity, I must confess. At first it was not a simple coincidence, but a real collision, where an enormous brain-washing, more or less conscious, was released, putting back each thing in its place. A psychologist being by definition a disorganized person on the outside (but fairly well organized on the inside), I was stunned to see how the information revealed by the extra-terrestrials not only found its place in my mind, but also established an incredible synthesis between the elements of my life. What is even more incredible is the creative changes which I 4 . now use to help my patients. Actions causing reactions, I was led to verify one by one each of the principal elements of the messages.

I refuse to follow a credo, because the mental operations related to believing have nothing to do with the operations conducting logical reasoning, even with subjective verifications. I do not blindly believe in extra-terrestrials, I truly understand their role and their presence in a true and reflected manner, in complete understanding of the decor.

But on the other hand, who has never been cheated by Society? Be that as it may, one must react to those usurpations; and so here I am on this slow boat which carries the truth, beauty, sanity and which builds a liberating progress.
