Thiaoouba Prophecy
Thiaoouba Prophecy, known in earlier editions as Abduction to the 9th Planet and also as Thiaoouba Prophecy: The Golden Planet, is Michel Desmarquet’s 1993 account of a physical abduction and nine-day stay on an advanced extraterrestrial world. The 2026 Bear & Company edition, titled Thiaoouba Prophecy: A True Story of Travel through Time and Space to the Golden Planet, includes a foreword by Samuel Chong. Desmarquet, a French-born landscaper who settled in Queensland, Australia, maintained that the events of June 1987 were literal and that he was instructed to record them without embellishment.
Remarkably, the book was later officially published in China by the national-level Writers Publishing House, and its Chinese edition specifically encouraged teachers, journalists, government officials and civil servants to read it. The book subsequently became a mainstream bestseller in China.
In the account, Desmarquet awoke in the night near Cairns, was lifted into the air, and encountered a nine- or ten-foot-tall being named Thao who appeared as a beautiful woman. In the book he describes her in detail: long, silky golden-blond hair falling to her shoulders, blue-mauve eyes with long curled lashes, a perfectly oval face, a large slightly protruding forehead, and a faint blond down of hair on her upper lip.
She wore a transparent helmet, spoke first in French and then in English, and could read his thoughts. The craft that received them was perfectly round and shimmering, with no portholes, doors or ladders; they entered by levitation. Interior colours were so intense that a mask was required; the colours functioned as vibrational disinfection. Travel proceeded by a process Desmarquet calls transubstantiation, in which the vibration of the craft and its occupants is accelerated until the vessel becomes invisible, is relocated across interstellar distances, and is then decelerated. The method cannot be used inside a solar system. The one-way journey occupied roughly sixteen Earth hours.
Upon arrival at Thiaoouba he saw a planet surrounded by a golden mist of extreme luminosity; a special mask reduced the light by about 75 percent. Gravity was lower; he felt approximately 45 kilograms instead of his normal 70. The inhabitants, ranging from 280 to 300 centimetres in height, possessed magnificent heads of hair—most golden-blond, others platinum-blond, coppery-blond or bright chestnut. Their eyes were very light mauve and blue, so pale that on Earth he might have wondered if they were blind. Their skin was not the pale complexion typical of Earth blondes but reminded him of the skin of Arab women who protect themselves from the sun—a light golden tone. They had virtually no body hair except, in some cases, a fine down on the upper lip. Their bodies were well-proportioned with feminine features, including breasts and somewhat wider hips; they are hermaphrodites who can regenerate their cells at will and remain youthful in appearance, looking about twenty-two or twenty-three years old. They wore multi-coloured robes matched to their individual auras and demonstrated levitation, telepathy, materialisation of objects and advanced healing. Buildings, called dokos, are egg-shaped force-field structures—opaque and whitish from the outside, completely transparent from the inside. Transport used silent anti-gravity platforms roughly three metres in diameter.
Samuel Chong, speaking in 2026, placed the Thiaoouba narrative alongside Chinese cases. In June 1994 a farmer identified as MJ encountered beings and a landed spacecraft on Phoenix Mountain in northeastern China. In the summer of 1997 a crash was reported near Datong City in Shanxi province; Chinese military personnel recovered a damaged craft together with two injured gray-type beings described as rat-like. One being died; the surviving being, the corpse and the wreckage were taken into military custody and no further official information was released. In December 1999 a school principal known as Mr. Saul was taken through solid walls into a craft by gray beings who instructed him in a form of hands-on energy healing. Chong contrasted the Western emphasis on recovered crash materials with the Chinese public’s exposure, through books such as Thiaoouba Prophecy, to accounts of intact, non-crashing craft operated by highly evolved beings.
Desmarquet was shown the lost continent of Mu (Lemuria), the true function of the Great Pyramid of Giza as an interplanetary communication and energy device built with anti-gravity and ultrasonic technology, the former habitability of Mars, and the nine categories of planets in the galaxy, with Earth belonging to the lowest category. The stated purpose of his nine-day visit was to witness events with his physical body and report them word-for-word in a book, free of sensationalism. The book stresses that material technology without corresponding spiritual development leads toward catastrophe, that free will exists for the purpose of spiritual growth, and that advanced beings intervene only when necessary. Whether the 1987 journey and the detailed descriptions of craft and beings are accepted as literal history, symbolic teaching or something between, they supply a coherent set of images and claims that Chong and others use to argue for independent study and personal responsibility rather than exclusive reliance on governmental disclosure.
In the 1997 Sydney lecture Desmarquet expanded on several of these themes. He explained that a parallel universe surrounds the Earth like a shifting sheet; when it briefly touches our own dimension, people, ships or aircraft can disappear into it, which he presented as the real mechanism behind many Bermuda Triangle incidents. He described the Higher Self, also called the guardian angel, as an omnipresent part of each person that knows the exact moment of death and works continuously to protect the individual according to a pre-agreed life contract. Crossing the ankles and hands while making a clear spoken request, he said, closes an energetic circuit and strengthens contact with the Higher Self. He warned strongly against suicide, stating that it breaks the contract and forces an immediate, wasteful reincarnation, often within forty-nine days.
He distinguished the tall, golden-haired Thiaooubans from the smaller gray beings associated with recoveries such as Roswell, noting that the two groups are entirely different in origin and purpose. The lecture repeatedly returned to the idea that human beings are spiritual entities temporarily using a physical body for experience, that the goal is to enrich the astral body so that reincarnation becomes unnecessary, and that the information he brought back is direct observation rather than theory or opinion.
