How do you defend yourself against these attacks?

I know about the truthfulness of my contacts and that’s all I need for my defense—should I elect to take this stance. Because my contacts with the Pleiadians/Plejarans are real and true, I see no need to defend or justify myself in any manner, shape or form.

 

You lead a very reclusive lifestyle. Why?

Although the opposite is often claimed, my lifestyle stems by no means from a fear of the various assassination attempts which, so far, have been made on me a total of 13 times [15 as of June 10, '98]. The reasons why I maintain my low profile vary: First, I am no guru or leader of a sect, and for this reason I need not present myself publicly to gather followers or to represent myself as some saint, which I certainly am not by any means. Second, I do not want others to put me on a pedestal, for I am neither something special nor someone who enjoys being admired or gawked at; I am not on display like an animal in a zoo.

Furthermore, I am not inclined to have journalists interview me because, as a rule, they want only to sensationalize the material, whereby they twist and falsify the truth to the limit.

 

And yet your foes portray you as a guru and the leader of a sect because you founded an organization called FIGU. Just what is FIGU?

The "Free Community of Interests for Border and Spiritual Sciences and Ufological Studies" (FIGU) is endeavoring to disseminate worldwide the truth about the Creational-natural laws and directives, and about a way of life that directs people toward the emergence of love, harmony, and humaneness, and a life of purposeful evolution.

The tasks associated with the teachings of the Creational-natural truth vary greatly and include campaigns against overpopulation, torture and capital punishment, the discrimination against women, and the abuse of children. We seek the protection of animals and nature, and we offer assistance to those in need, be it through food supplies, clothing, medication, household articles, tools or other items.

FIGU’s portfolio of tasks also includes counseling functions related to situations arising from everyday life situations. Such advice is provided free of charge, of course, for we are a non-profit group or, to be more precise, a legally established, non-profit association/organization.

Producing written material and books is another of FIGU's tasks, whereby the books are sold at cost and many brochures are even disseminated free of charge. We make no profit and, therefore, we are truly a non-profit organization.

 

How do you reply to the accusation that FIGU is a sect?

We certainly are not a sect, of course. We are neither a religious nor a sectarian group, nor are we a political, military or civil organization that is based upon any totalitarian and autocratic truth. Neither are we perfect in any way nor all-knowing. No member of FIGU is forced or coerced into believing or embracing anything that he or she cannot discover from within for him- or herself, or recognize as the actual truth without any external influences. We of FIGU have no guru, master or leader of a sect who stands above any other group member. We do have a leader who is in charge of everything without holding a special position within the group—namely me. Therefore, I am not a guru but only a normal member of the organization, respectively group, just like all the others—with the same rights and obligations.

Thank you, Mr. Meier!
