Front Cover: NASA photo of Apollo 12 astronaut walking on thesurface of the moon (see Life Magazine, 12 Dec. 1969). His bodyorgone energy field is softly glowing a blue color in the lunarvacuum, possibly due to excitation by his high-frequency radiocommunications equipment. This blue coloration of the energyfield in the photo, which has been seen in a few other lunarastronaut images (but often deleted in published versions) hasbeen systematically ignored or explained away as an effect of“lunar dust”, “water vapor” or “camera lens smudges”. In fact, itis a visible expression of the human orgone (life) energy field.For more information, see:

“We consider the discovery of the orgone energy among thegreatest events in human history.”– from a letter to theAmerican Medical Association, signed by 17 medical doctorsin 1949.

“THE ORGONE ACCUMULATOR IS THE MOSTIMPORTANT SINGLE DISCOVERY IN THE HISTORY OFMEDICINE, BAR NONE” – Theodore P. Wolfe, M.D., fromEmotional Plague Versus Orgone Biophysics, 1948.

“It is justifiable that the discovery of orgone energy and itsmedical applications by means of the orgone accumulator, theorgone shooter, bionous earth, and orgone water have openedup an abundance of new and, it appears, amazingly goodprospects.” – Wilhelm Reich, M.D. from The Cancer Biopathy(Discovery of the Orgone, Volume 2), 1948.

“What would you say of the leading philosophers here towhom I have offered a thousand times of my own accord toshow my studies, but who with the lazy obstinacy of a serpentwho has eaten his full have never consented to look at theplanets, the moon, or telescope? To such people philosophy is akind of book... where the truth is to be sought not in theUniverse or in nature, but (I use their own words) bycomparing texts.” – Galileo Galilei, Italian astronomer of the1600s who proved that the Earth moved in the heavens,shortly before being prosecuted and threatened with tortureby the Catholic Church. From a letter to Kepler, 19 August1610.

“...the orgone energy does not exist.”– Judge John D.Clifford, from a 1954 U.S. court ruling in which all of Dr.Reich’s books and research journals were banned, andordered burned in incinerators; Reich was later sent to aFederal Penitentiary, where he died

About theOrgone Biophysical Research Lab(OBRL) and Greensprings Center

The Orgone Biophysical Research Lab is a non-profit scienceresearch and educational foundation, established in 1978. Overthe years, OBRL has supported various laboratory and fieldresearch projects, educational lectures and seminars in both theUSA and overseas, focused upon the sex-economic and orgonebiophysical discoveries of the late natural scientist, WilhelmReich, MD. OBRL also publishes a journal, Pulse of the Planet,on an irregular basis. The founder and director of OBRL, JamesDeMeo, PhD., has been investigating and extending Dr. Reich’soriginal findings in both the social and natural sciences since1970. Early in 1995, the Greensprings Center was established ina vibrant forested region of rural Oregon, to provide a betterfoundation for continued public outreach and in-depth study oforgone energy functions in nature. The Center also has the WestCoast’s only Orgone Energy Darkroom, for experiments requir-ing a higher energy charge, and for direct visual observation oforgone energy functions. New books are also occasionally pub-lished, and public educational programs, the Greensprings Semi-nars, are held in summer. Accomplished scholars in the field oforgonomy are invited periodically to share their knowledge andexperience with interested students and professionals fromaround the world. OBRL programs have included seminars onBions, Biogenesis and the Reich Blood Test, The Orgone EnergyAccumulator, and Guided Independent Study, and a conferenceon New Research In Orgonomy.

SAHARASIA: The 4000 BCEOrigins of Child-Abuse,Sex-Repression, Warfare andSocial Violence, In theDeserts of the Old World,by James DeMeoDr. DeMeo’s magnum opus on theorigins of human violence andbiophysical armoring, the firstgeographical, cross-cultural study ofhuman behavior around the world,using Wilhelm Reich’s sex-economic discoveries as a basic startingpoint, presenting world maps of different behaviors and socialinstitutions. Source-regions (Arabia and Central Asia) forpatriarchal authoritarian culture were identified, and migratory-diffusion patterns were traced, back in time, to pinpoint whereand how the human tragedy began. Solves the riddle of theorigins of human violence and armoring. A breakthrough in thescientific study of human sexuality, psychology and anthropology,and must-reading for every parent, student, professor and clinicalworker in the field of human health and behavior. 464 pages,with over 100 maps, photos, and illustrations. Large formatwith vivid full-color cover, extensive bibliography and index.

On Wilhelm Reich and OrgonomyEdited by James DeMeoContains Reich's milestone articles on psychic and somatic(mind-body) processes, and on the bioelectrical aspects of humanemotion and sexuality, with articles by R.D. Laing on Reich, anda discussion on Reich's work in Denmark when he fled Naziterror in Germany and was also expelled from the InternationalPsychoanalytic Association. Other papers discuss: Reich'sresearch on biogenesis and discovery of the microscopical bion;

John Ott:Exploring the SpectrumDVD-MovieDirected by John Ott

An exciting video journeythrough the world of time-lapsephotography by one of the foundersof the science of photobiology.Do fluorescent lights cause cancer andchildhood learning and behaviordisorders? Can long-term exposure tolow-level radiation as from TV sets, computers, fluorescentlights, and similar devices harm your health? Does livingbehind window glass and with glasses covering our eyes overyears affect our health? Is natural sunlight and trace ultra-violet radiation really harmful to our health? Or is it necessaryand beneficial? How do cells, plants and animals respond toconstant exposure to different light color frequencies? Doesmal-illumination and electrosmog create nervous agitation anda weakened immune system? These and similar questions werethe subject of Dr. John Nash Ott’s pioneering investigations inthe field of photobiology, using the methods of time-lapsephotography. In an era of increasing low-level electromagneticpollution, where everyone is “wired up” to the internet 24/7, andeven children have the latest cell phones, iPods, blueberrys andother Wi-Fi gizmos, with eyeballs glued to display screens, Dr.Ott shows we are paying the price with our health and biology.Our indoor lifestyles and chronic wearing of UV-blocking eye-glasses and contact lenses additionally has deprived us ofbiologically-necessary natural trace-ultraviolet and bluerfrequencies of light, with an irrational and nearly superstitiousfear of natural sunlight. Dr. Ott’s time-lapse movies, reproducedhere, show how plants and animals are deeply affected inmovement, growth, form and sexual behavior, by these significantbioenergetic changes in our natural living conditions. This is awonderful video showing Dr. Ott’s original film sequences,including entire plants growing from a seed to fruit in less thana minute. A fascinating nature study for both adults andchildren. 80 minutes, with humorous introduction. Multi-Region.
