通过与外星人取得联系，而得到觉醒？？

A Chinese astrophysics PhD student has embarked on a solo online campaign to expose what he said are cult-themed social media accounts that promulgate the idea of enlightenment through contact with aliens.

一位中国的天体物理学博士在微信公众号上，揭发了一些他认为与邪教主题相关的社交媒体账号。这些账号通过与外星人取得联系而觉醒的主题来进行宣传。

Liu Boyang, an astrophysics PhD student under the National Astronomical Observatories of Chinese Academy of Sciences, exposed on Tuesday dozens of social media accounts, including one called “Xingkong Diantai” or in English “Galactic Radio Station.”

中国科学院国家天文台在读博士刘博洋周二揭露了一系列的社交媒体账号，其中包括“星空电台”。

The WeChat account featured a series of speeches made by Ma Xiaoxiao, a woman who claims to be an Australia-based lawyer and a member of the World Chinese UFO Association. Ma introduced her experience of coming into contact with aliens in a series of 11 speeches that are available for download on Youtube and the Chinese audio website ximalaya.com.

该”星空电台”微信公共账号有马晓晓关于星际文明主题系列的讲座。马晓晓是一位澳洲华人律师和世界华人UFO联合会的成员，她在讲座中介绍自己来与外星人取得联系的经历。该讲座共11场，从YouTube 和喜马拉雅app上可以下载。

In one of Ma’s speeches, she claimed that the spirit of Gautama Siddhartha, or the Buddha, had paid her a visit while she was shopping for chocolate in Sydney, Australia. She also claimed to have come into personal contact with other prominent spiritual figures in Buddhism, such as Guanyin Bodhisattva.

在马晓晓的讲座中，她声称乔达摩⋅西达多(也就是释迦牟尼)曾经于她在悉尼巧克力节买巧克力的时候找过她。她还声称自己和佛教里其他有名的佛取得过联系，比如观世音菩萨。

Liu said in his online article that Ma’s speeches are “brainwashing” in nature and that Ma was trying to establish herself as a prophet-like figure through her speeches, essentially paving the way for her to start a cult and recruit believers.

刘博洋在文章中说马晓晓的演讲在“洗脑”，她想通过演讲试图树立起一个伟大的先知形象。

In December 2018, Ma allegedly spoke to an audience of 600 people in Beijing and Shanghai on how to achieve enlightenment through contact with aliens, according to the "Galactic Radio Station."

据星空电台报导，2018年12月，马晓晓声称她在北京和上海举办了如何通过与外星人取得联系，而获得觉醒的讲座，号称有600人出席。

Liu warned that Ma had come dangerously close to developing offline believers through “planned propaganda.”

刘博洋警告马晓晓，这样做已经接近通过“有计划的宣传”发展地下信徒。

Ma could not be reached for comment as of press time.

截止周五发稿，马晓晓没有对此进行回复。

However, after Liu’s article went viral online, the "Galactic Radio Station"’s account posted a response from Ma on Thursday in which Ma claimed that she was only an alien enthusiast and denied that she had deified herself or developed or controlled any group.

但是在刘博洋的文章在网上引起热议后，星空电台帐号于周四发布了一篇马晓晓的回复。马晓晓在文章中说她仅仅是一名外星和地外文明的爱好者，并且否认神话自己或发展并控制任何团体。

Ma said Liu’s article had smeared her reputation and that China is a country under the rule of law and she reserves the right to take legal actions.

马晓晓说刘博洋的文章已经玷污了她的名誉，而中国是一个法治国家，她会采取法律措施进行维权。

In an interview with the Global Times on Friday, Liu shrugged off Ma’s threat of lawsuit, saying, “China is indeed a country under the rule of law, so I hope she will not hide overseas, but return to China to face legal judgment.”

刘博洋在周五对Global Times的采访中说到他对马晓晓的法律诉讼威胁表示不屑，“中国是法治社会没错，希望她不要躲在国外，回国面对法律的裁判”。

Liu’s article also exposed dozens of other social media accounts on Sina Weibo, WeChat and ximalaya.com that advocate either “awakening through extraterrestrial contact” or hypnosis healing through “past life regression.” Some of the hypnosis practitioners have used the accounts to profit, including selling courses or services.

刘博洋在文章中也揭露了诸如微博，微信，喜马拉雅app等一系列的通过“前世回归”提倡“通过外星接触觉醒”或催眠治疗的社交媒体帐号。一些催眠大师参与者还通过这些帐号进行卖课或者相关服务的盈利活动。

Other social media accounts Liu had exposed lie more in the management grey zone. One of the accounts that calls itself “Awakers” on Sina Weibo has over 835,000 followers. The account frequently shares information on alien activities or extraterrestrial civilizations. The account denied on Tuesday having anything to do with the alien-themed cult groups.

刘博洋揭露的其他社交媒体帐号更多是钻网络管理灰色地带的空子。一个取名为“觉醒网_觉醒字幕组”的微博帐号已经拥有835,000的关注者。这个帐号经常分享一些关于外星人活动或者地外文明的信息。该帐号于周二在微博上澄清自己与所谓的外星主题邪教毫无关系。

However, Liu replied on his own Sina Weibo account that “although these accounts could not be labeled as cults, they help sow the seeds and cultivate the environment for alien cults to flourish in China.”

但是刘博洋在他的微博帐号上回复道，尽管这些帐号并没有被标签为邪教，但是他们已经帮助外星邪教在中国生根发芽。

In November 2018, the official Sina Weibo account of the Chinese government’s anti-cult office warned of a cult group in China that called itself the “Milky Way Federation.” The office said the cult group advocates doomsday theory and has anti-government tendencies.

2018年11月，中国反邪教的官方微博警告了中国的一个叫“银河联邦”的邪教组织，说该邪教组织主张世界末日理论并具有反政府倾向。

Extraterrestrial-themed cult groups can be extremely dangerous. In 1997, 38 members of the “Heaven’s Gate” religious cult in the US, led by Marshall Applewhite, committed mass suicide believing they could leave their bodily “containers” and enter an alien spacecraft hidden behind the Hale-Bopp Comet, reported CNN.

外星人主题的邪教组织是极端危险的。据美国有线电视新闻网报道，1997年由马歇尔⋅ 阿普尔怀特领导的“美国天堂之门”事件中，宗教狂热团体中的38名成员大规模自杀，这些成员认为他们可以离开他们的身体“容器”，并进入隐藏在海尔-波普慧星的外星飞船。

Global Times于周五中午收到了觉醒字幕组的回复，具体回复如下:

文章关于我们觉醒网的观点是不赞同的，觉醒网自设立以来一直以“崇尚科学、自我鉴别、理性评论、切勿迷信”为原则，多年坚决反对蛊惑人心外星邪教组织。我们的理念是：UFO和外星人文化需要合理的引导，就像二次元文化一样，客观存在年轻人也喜欢，要像二次元文化一样将UFO文化也发展成为一个健康的文创产业，打击其中的“外星邪教”和“不理性灵修课程”。觉醒网是自媒体，旨在分享和交流，不以盈利为目的。我们与文中提到的组织、个人没有关系。

关于觉醒官网链接打不开的事实是:觉醒网没有被和谐，是我们主动下线整改，并永久关闭“觉醒”“觉醒字幕组”，因为“觉醒”二字确实会被误解。目前这种圈内乱象更是与我们UFO爱好者的初衷是相违背的。

另外，一名质疑刘博洋文章的微信名为“雯雯”的用户于周五告诉Global Times:

针对刘说的这个邪教，我是反对的，理由是：

1. 首先她的分享通常是讲飞碟探索和地外文明领域的，是自己的经历以及采访国际飞碟和地外文明研究专家和知情者。不是宗教和气功。而飞碟探索这个领域，中央电视台也热播过引进的《远古外星人》等相关纪录片，如果是这样的，那央视岂不是“邪教”的传播者。

2. 飞碟和地外文明研究在国际上是个被广泛讨论的话题，研究者中不乏主流科学界的前沿科学家，有很多主流科学界的前沿科学家都做个严谨的调查，谈论过这个话题。相关的资料网上有很多。还有很多飞碟的图片各类这方面接触者反应的信息都很多。

3. 我也没有“发展和控制”任何团体。马晓晓她长期在海外，只是线上的分享，她没有控制或者通过什么群去控制别人。

4. 她在网上的所有的分享个人经历的都是免费的。很多都很落地，很实在，对我们生活帮助很大。里面有内容都是教大家积极的，保持正念正知正行，鼓励大家，给大家关爱和支持的。对大家帮助很多，刘同学提到的危害社会更是危言耸听。

5. 刘先生引用极端的例子，故意忽视从古至今，史书上记载的一些有外星人的事实，而一而再的断章取义，来诬陷马晓晓。刘先生不仅仅对马晓晓诬陷和攻击。还对其他很多个平台也是攻击。所以我对刘先生的人品有了很深的质疑。他不断的攻击别人造谣已经是很严重的事实。

那么……你的看法是？
