Secrets of Medjugorje Investigation Revealed in Bombshell Report

A Question Answered?: Headed by Cardinal Ruini, a team of investigators cracked the code. With a resounding vote, they deemed the first seven encounters to be credible, shaking the foundations of a long-standing mystery.

A bombshell revelation has exploded onto the religious scene. In a new book titled “Medjugorje Dossier,” Italian author Saverio Gaeta unveils a startling truth: the findings of a previously shrouded Vatican investigation. This international commission, led by the enigmatic Cardinal Camillo Ruini, delved into the heart of a modern mystery – the Marian apparitions of Medjugorje.

Gaeta unlocks the secrets of their unpublished writings, revealing an overwhelming majority verdict (13 out of 15) that shatters all expectations. 

The commission, shrouded in secrecy for years, declares the origins of Medjugorje to be far beyond human explanation. The faint whispers of the supernatural have solidified into a resounding truth, leaving one question hanging heavy in the air: what secrets lie within the very beginnings of this phenomenon?

A ten-day window in the summer of 1981 marked a turning point. From June 24th to July 3rd, a series of encounters unfolded, shrouded in mystery. These encounters possessed an undeniable power, capable of igniting a reawakening of faith, a complete transformation of lives, and a fervent return to the Church in those who witnessed them.

The locations of these encounters were as enigmatic as the events themselves. Seven transpired on a hill soon to be christened “Apparition Hill,” forever etched in the minds of believers. Another occurred within the very heart of Medjugorje’s parish facilities. The final one shrouded the young witnesses in an even deeper mystery. Taken by car by police officers, they found themselves in the village of Cerno, leaving one to ponder the purpose and significance of this chosen location. What transpired during these ten days? What profound truths were revealed on these hallowed grounds?

The veil begins to lift on the experiences of the chosen witnesses. Saverio Gaeta, in his explosive book, unveils the mysterious  details documented by the Vatican commission. Here, in the commission’s own words, lies a chilling portrait of the encounters:

  • An undeniable Presence awaited the visionaries, a “Mother of Christ” shrouded in mystery.
  • This “phenomenon,” the “Gospa” or “Figure,” held a constant vigil in the same location during the initial encounters.
  • The memory of that first encounter burned bright in the minds of the young witnesses – the exact time and place forever etched in their consciousness.
  • The message delivered wasn’t meant for a select few, but resonated outwards, encompassing all present, both those who witnessed and those who merely heard the echoes.
  • The encounter itself unfolded with an abruptness that sent shivers down their spines, a complete surprise that left them unsettled.
  • An initial  fear gripped the hearts of these young witnesses, a profound disturbance echoing within their souls, but would soon transform into a great love for “Gospa”.

The Vatican commission’s investigation into Medjugorje has unearthed startling truths about the visionaries at the heart of the phenomenon.  Gaeta, in his book, lays bare the commission’s  assessment:

  • Untainted Minds: These teenagers, far from being susceptible to manipulation, were found to be psychologically sound. Normal adolescents, they possessed the critical faculties to discern deception and assert themselves.
  • Unforeseen Encounters: The commission delved into the visionaries’ pasts, uncovering a startling truth. Nothing in their experiences could have prepared them for these initial encounters with the “Gospa.” These apparitions were not yearnings or fantasies manifesting, but a sudden, unexpected intrusion into their lives.

The very foundation of the Medjugorje phenomenon rests on these seemingly ordinary teenagers.  But were their encounters with the “Gospa” a genuine mystery, or something more unsettling?

The lives of the Medjugorje visionaries unfold like a scene from a haunting mystery.  Gaeta, in his book, paints an illuminating picture based on the commission’s findings:

  • Unyielding Faith: The teenagers were steeped in a traditional Christian upbringing, heavily influenced by the Marian spirit of Franciscanism. However, this devotion did not translate into a yearning or expectation for a supernatural encounter with the Virgin Mary. There was no hint of them fabricating such an experience.
  • Unsuspecting Minds: At the time of these initial encounters, the commission discovered no evidence of any special knowledge, inclinations, or interests that set these teenagers apart. They were, in all outward appearances, ordinary teenagers.
  • Unassuming Believers: The commission discovered no evidence that the teenagers played any particularly active role in church life at the time. They were not known for exceptional piety or religious fervor.
  • Isolated by Faith: Gaeta emphasizes a crucial aspect: Yugoslavia, a totalitarian state under Tito’s rule, restricted access to information. The “seers,” as they came to be called, were unlikely to have been influenced by external events due to the limited media available.

The plot thickens.  These ordinary teenagers, residing in a closed society, become the epicenter of a potential visitation.  Were they simply unwitting pawns in a larger celestial game, or was something more at play?  The mystery of Medjugorje deepens with each revelation.

The Unexplainable:  After an intense and comprehensive examination, the commission concludes that the first seven encounters transcend any earthly explanation.  The details, the sheer scale of the phenomenon, all point to something far exceeding the capabilities or experiences of these ordinary teenagers and their surroundings.  It was beyond invention.

A Glimpse of the Divine?:  But the commission doesn’t stop there.  They delve deeper, hinting at a potential connection to the divine.  The “unpredictable and special religious bond” forged during these encounters aligns with the possibility of a supernatural event.

A Lingering Enigma:   Gaeta’s book throws open the doors to a captivating mystery.  Were these encounters a genuine visitation from the Virgin Mary?  Or something otherworldly, at play in Medjugorje?  The answer hangs heavy in the air, waiting to be unraveled.

  • Unnerved and Empowered: The commission discovered a startling shift within the visionaries after the first seven encounters. These seemingly ordinary teenagers were thrust into a role – a “subjectivity, a responsibility and a protagonism” – for which they were completely unprepared. The encounters left them shaken, yet imbued with a newfound purpose.
  • The Unknown Entity: The very nature of the “Gospa,” the entity the teenagers encountered, deepens the enigma. Her characteristics and familiarity were unlike anything they could have previously imagined. It was as if they were face-to-face with someone, or something, entirely outside their realm of knowledge.

The question burns ever brighter: Who, or what, was the “Gospa?”  Was this a genuine celestial being, or something more unsettling masquerading as the Virgin Mary?  The secrets of Medjugorje continue to unfold, each revelation a chilling fragment of a larger, unsolved mystery.

THE devil didn’t make them do it.

  • Casting Out Darkness: The report decisively rejects the notion of demonic involvement in the phenomenon’s origins. They deem this theory “gratuitous and unfounded,” incompatible with the nature of the encounters and the positive outcomes they inspired.
  • A Message Beyond Understanding: The focus of the requests and messages – peace, imbued with a profound theological significance – transcended the existing knowledge and desires of the visionaries and their community. It was a message that resonated on a far deeper level.

The commission acknowledges the otherworldly nature of the phenomenon, but rejects the idea of a malevolent force.  This raises a chilling question: If not demonic, then what entity possessed the power to deliver such a profound message that transcended human understanding?  The mystery of Medjugorje deepens, leaving us with a lingering sense of awe, and a hint of something unknown lurking just beyond the veil.

A captivating truth emerges from the shadows in Saverio Gaeta’s “Medjugorje Dossier.”  The Vatican commission, after meticulously examining the phenomenon, reveals a link with Christ that enthralls:

  • Bound to Divinity: The report underlines an “indissoluble bond” between the “Gospa” and Christ. Her very existence, her actions, are incomprehensible without acknowledging this connection to the divine.
  • A Message Steeped in Faith: The “Gospa’s” requests and messages transcended mere words. They possessed a “theological structural dimension,” weaving together intellectual understanding and practical application of faith. This was a message that resonated on a deeply spiritual level.
  • A Return to the Fold: Perhaps most compelling, the report highlights the “Gospa’s” ability to reawaken a sense of belonging to the Church within the visionaries. This act suggests a force working to strengthen, not undermine, faith.

Based on these revelations, the commission reaches a pivotal conclusion: with “reasonable certainty,” they declare the first seven apparitions as intrinsically credible.  But credible for what?  Was the “Gospa” a divine messenger, a beacon of hope, or something more enigmatic?  Gaeta’s book leaves us at the precipice of a profound mystery, the answer waiting to be unveiled.
