1936-1939: Wilhelm Reich excerpts

20 november 1936
Saw a film on cancer yesterday, shown by the English delegation. No doubt about it. I'm right.

"Migratory cancer cells" are amoebic formations. They are produced from disintegrating tissue and thus demonstrate the law of tension and charge in its purest form -- as does the orgastic convulsion.

Now money is a must -- cancer the main issue -- in every respect, even political.

It was a staggering experience. My intuition is good. I depend on it.

Wilhelm Reich: Myron Sharaf on the orgone motor and 1948 (from "Fury on Earth")

One of Reich's chief preoccupations during the summer of 1948 was the orgone energy motor.* (*Reich never published the design for the orgone energy motor and I no longer remember the details of the experimental set-up or its operation. I do recall that it involved the use of an accumulator attached to a wheel; concentrated orgone energy was triggered by a small amount of electricity, an amount insufficient to rotate the wheel without the accumulator. I also recall that when the wheel was rotated entirely by electricity, it had a steady grinding motion.

1947-09-07: Wilhelm Reich: New facts and ideas concerning the GM reaction

1. The "clicks" are noises similar to the crackle in radio sets before thunderstorms.
2. The whitish orgone rays are miniature lightnings, discharges of the nebulous form of orgone.
3. There are not three types of orgone rays but only three different states of one type of orgone energy.
"Fog" concentrates into bluish dots or into yellow rays. Fog is the "matrix" of energy, which discharges in whitish rays, audible as cracks.
4. Orgone and electrical tension avoid each other or hunt each other away, depending on which is stronger.

1943-01-30: Wilhelm Reich: The orgone energy field of rotating bodies pulsates

At approximately 4 p.m. (in the presence of Ernst Kalmus, who is going to build the apparatus) I noticed the following disturbing phenomenon:

2008-07-14: Archive Workshop at Orgonon - results from Wilhelm Reich Museum 2008 Update

For three days in July, eleven people—scholars, researchers, and Trust board members and advisors—convened in the Conference Building (formerly Reich’s Student Laboratory) to peruse what we consider the most sensitive and proprietary materials in The Archives of the Orgone Institute: Reich’s orgone motor research, the Y factor, and orgonometric equations, including Reich’s gravitational equations.
As we mentioned in earlier Updates, after the Trust’s busy schedule in 2007 we opted not to have a regular summer conference at Orgonon in 2008.

1939-03-17: Wilhelm Reich: A Measuring Apparatus, an Orgonometer, Is Needed

A Measuring Apparatus, an Orgonometer, Is Needed
Principle: Materials with high dielectric strength used for measuring purposes. Glass and hard rubber.
Suitable for charging alternately with electricity and orgone.
For testing of cultures and orgone charge in bodies.
ReasoningInsulators take up orgone.
Metals radiate it, probably amplified.

1938-09-01: Wilhelm Reich: My Spinning-wave hypothesis seems to solve a multitude of contradictions in physics

My spinning-wave hypothesis (*) seems to solve a multitude of contradictions in physics.
How to elaborate this?
(* Reich's spinning-wave theory represented his evolving thought on the relation of mass and energy.

1937-10-14: Wilhelm Reich: I am on the track of the matter

I am on the track of the matter.
1. Local oxygen deficiency due to poor respiration makes tissue decay.
2. S bacteria form.
3. The tissue regenerates itself as a tumor.
4. The S form the metastases.
5. Sarcoma S is more dangerous than carcinoma S.

1939-02-27: Wilhelm Reich: Thank you for your help in determining the radiation

Dear Dr. Bon,
I am very grateful that you have agreed to help me determine the radiation. I would like to give you as a preliminary guide some of the main observations that have been made since my first letter to you.
1. The cultures fill the room in which they are located with a strange something that, after approximately ten to forty minutes, depending on the individual, is experienced as a curious heaviness.
2. They penetrate the packaging of X-ray films, cardboard covers, thin wooden boards.

1947-08-14: Wilhelm Reich: I have simply transformed orgone into electrical energy. The impulse is a simple electromagnetic system

5-6 a.m. It is beginning to become clear to me that the reaction in the impulse counter has nothing to do with the mechanics of cosmic rays. It is new:
Orgone is capable of turning a wheel if a counter tube or similar instrument is so excited that an electromagnetic wheel rotates. It seems important that the electrons "excite" the orgone in the tube. It remains to be discovered whether the electrons or the orgone itself is the motor force.
I have simply transformed orgone into electrical energy. The impulse is a simple electromagnetic system.

1947-08-09: Wilhelm Reich: My Geiger-Muller counter has been running amok since yesterday

At the beginning, in early June 1947, when it arrived, it clicked two to five times on the first day in the room and in the orgone accumulator. Then the Geiger-Muller apparatus was silent for many weeks and did not show the slightest reaction. Therefore, I was already starting to think that it was worthless for my orgone research. Yesterday, by chance, out of curiosity, I picked it up again, to see whether it was still dead. When I switched on the power, the apparatus suddenly burst into life.

1939-05-23: Wilhelm Reich: What have I discovered?

I am sitting in a completely empty apartment waiting for my American visa. I have misgivings as to how it will go. I have lost faith in pushing things through rapidly.
I am utterly and horribly alone!
It will be quite an undertaking to carry on all the work in America. Essentially I am a great man, a rarity, as it were. I can't quite believe it myself, however, and that is why I struggle against playing the role of a great man. What have I discovered?
1. The function of the orgasm
2. Character armoring
3. The life formula
4. The bions

1937-05-25: Wilhelm Reich: Combustion = release of energy, Organization = binding of energy, Radiation tests are needed!

The breakdown of matter into vesicles when heated to incandescence undoubtedly releases large amounts of electrical energy. The glowing heat must correspond to the emission of radiation by this energy.
Combustion = release of energy
Organization = binding of energy
Radiation tests are needed!

1937-04-22: Wilhelm Reich: Cancer is an infection

22 April 1937
The assumption is inescapable that the disease of cancer is:
1. Self-vivification -- protozoal disintegration of the organism
2. Autoinfection -- bacteria from the decay of tissue
3. Bodies as incubators for bacteria

The formula: "cancer = not keeping sterile" = stupid. Cancer is infection (cf. autoinoculation of the nutrient medium)

1937-01-01: Wilhelm Reich: What was known before me, what did I bring?

What was known before me?
The idea that life = sexuality (Freud, Hartmann)
The concept of orgasm
The concept of tradition--subjective factor
The reactionary role of the family
The relationship of religion--Oedipus complex, father
The concept of the stasis of sexual excitation
The idea of spontaneous generation
The idea of sexual reform, indeed world sexual reform: sexual politics
Pregenitality
Character as fact
Methodology of dialectical materialism
The idea that the "savage" has another kind of life

1936-12-12: Wilhelm Reich: Third generation of bions

The grandchildren of my bions have come to life; so that's the third generation!!
I actually have every reason to be very happy. If only this epidemic of neuroses didn't bother me!!
The cancer plague is becoming more understandable all the time.
1. The disturbed sex economy of the human being
2. The production of motile forms from disintegrating tissue
3. Mechanistic and religious thinking in the sciences.

1936-11-20: Wilhelm Reich: Saw a film on cancer today

1937-12-18 - Wilhelm Reich to Roger Du Teil excerpts about cancer and the radium industry

...A short while ago, my friend Sigurd Hoel drew my attention to the enormous danger that looms from the various trusts set up to manufacture and sell radium for the treatment of cancer. I do not know to what extent you are aware of the practices and the brutal determination of the representatives of these trusts and of the people who profit from them.

Excerpts from an article written by Brian Desborough entitled "Why I Wrote "They Cast No Shadows""

"Authors of non-fiction books often experience difficulty in acquiring sufficient data to fill a book of normal length. In contrast, the research material acquired by myself over the past three decades has resulted in an overabundance of riches. Consequently, I’ve had to omit much important research material in my book and also shorten some passages."

"We do not try to convince him"

In our thinking we have rid ourselves of the question of guilt. We blame nobody, but we remove barriers to our rational freedom of movement. If a rock on the road blocks my car, I do not declare that the rock is guilty but I get it out of the way; I do not destroy or condemn or imprison it, but simply move it aside. If the rock is too heavy, I drive around it. If there is no road by which I can drive around it, I take the trouble to build a piece of road. This takes time and effort but it is unavoidable. Under no circumstances do we accuse the rock.

58 Million U.S. Dollars to Alternative Energy Publicity/Picketing, No Dollars to Research&Developers?

http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2008/jul/09/energy.energy

says:

The billionaire Texas oilman T Boone Pickens today unveiled a $58m PR campaign aimed at convincing Americans to replace petrol with natural gas and wind.

The Pickens Plan, as the 80-year old has dubbed his effort, would involve an estimated $1tn government investment to substitute wind for the 22% of US electricity now derived from natural gas.

September 11, 1986, Tom Brown - Introduction to "More Implosion than Explosion" booklet by BSRF

To begin this introduction I would like to thank the people who made this book possible. First, my wife Alison, who did an excellent review of LIVING WATER, which is probably the best book in english on Viktor Schauberger. Secondly, I wish to thank Borderland Sciences Research Associate Bodo Capeller for his great help in translating a series of articles on Schauberger from the German magazine "WELTE SPIRAL", or World Spiral. The readers of this book will be well served by their efforts.
