Dear Hugh,
Thanks for the effort. That was very
informing. I guess that humans, like machines, also emit many types
of vibrations. That's why I was taught by a BD practitioner to have "good
feelings" while stirring the preparations. I wonder if the vibrations of
"good feelings" by a person can override the "bad vibrations" of a
machine. Like a happy farmer singing on his tractor. In this case,
attitude would be a very important facet of BD farming. Or even deeper, if
a person eats BD foods, would they emit different vibrations then someone eating
chemically grown foods. In that case, would they have a greater potential
for healing with vibrations.
By the way, a chemist friend of mine once pointed out to
me that WATER was the most studied element since the beginning of times, but yet
the LEAST understood. He also told me that some of the theories in cell
biology (e.g. the transport of intra-cellular particles) were being revisited as
they have found that the scientists had built their theories on a bunch of
artifacts (false visual cues). For example, small tiny lines inside the
cells formed themselves when preparing and mounting cells on glass plates.
For a long time they thought those lines really existed and had very important
functions for cells. Well... now they know that they don't! So.. now
it would seem that some cell biologists are turning to the properties of WATER
to explain many of their biological theories. They call it WATER
MEMORY. I think this is very similar to what you call TONE : Ether
permeating water capable of holding the patterns of water. Any
all of this is very exciting as I seriously believe (and here I'm certainly
exposing myself to criticism by those who believe that they could never merge)
that humanity is entering a period where people will be trying to build bridges
between the hard and esoteric sciences. In a sense, when
you say "We can use more science and less mumbo jumbo on this
subject", I feel that some people are
now trying to turn the mumbo jumbo into hard science. But really...
aren't we simply dealing with rules, set conventions, and words to
understand and talk about the same forces and phenomenon's. In this case,
we will undoubtedly finish up in the same place... Some getting there
faster.
Have a nice one,
Robin

Dear Lloyd, et. al.,
What I encounter here at the
antipodes from you Aussies is fear amongst the BD community that radionics
DOES work, but is somehow Ahrimanic. It works with the forces of sub-nature,
critics say.
I want to define a few terms so folks will know what
Ahriman and the forces of sub-nature might be.
Ahriman rules the
deepest earthly realms, just as Lucifer rules the most far-flung cosmic
realms. Where Lucifer deals in fantasy and illusion, halucinations, isolation,
pot smoking, etc. Ahriman goes for the gutso--money, war, lust, the use of
force, automatic machinery, real PHYSICAL things. Lucifer, traditionally,
wants to set himself up with his own universe, independent of the Creator,
while Ahriman's mission is to achieve perfection by stasis, which is to say
death.
The Forces of Subnature refers to the so-called fallen
ethers. So, first we have to define what ethers are.
Ethers are
the organizational principles permeating the elements, which are fire, air,
water and earth. Warmth is the principle associated with fire, light with air,
tone with water and life with earth. Imagine an eagle sailing high aloft
riding the rising warm air currents in the atmosphere. This shows us some of
the organizational character of warmth. Light passes through the atmosphere
but is reflected off of surfaces, and we can see how lenses and other optical
devices can direct and modify it. And we can see how it can be much more
organized than warmth. What we don't often think about is non-visible light,
such as infrared. Infrared light is lower energy light that is more closely
associated with warmth. The earth holds this sort of light in during the
winter. (Steiner pointed out in his agriculture course that we understand very
little about how light behaves within the earth, but, of course, if silica
conducts light so readily and the earth's crust is so silica rich then light
is at work within the earth as well as in the atmosphere.) Tone, which is the
ether permeating water, is available to our senses as sound in a very limited
range of vibrations. Water is the best conductor of sound. But water is also
the vibrational medium for chemistry, the universal solvent the basis for what
we know of as acidity and alkalinity. It is a ready recptor of patterns and
holds the memory of patterns. Consider the infinite variety of patterns in
snowflakes. So we see in water a further intensification of organization. With
earth we see the last and greatest intensification. Because organization is
the basis of life and the earth element, permeated by its ether, is the most
intense element, then we call this ether the life ether. We see its intensity
in the crystal lattice structures of rocks and minerals, and in our bodies
particularly in the bones with their heavy lime nature. But lime carries its
forces through oxygen, hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, sulfur on into every sort
of combination in living organisms.
We can think of fallen light ether
as disruptive electricity, fallen tone ether as disruptive magnetism and
fallen life ether as disruptive nuclear energy--namely radioactivity. Really,
in our bodies we have electricity, magnetism and nuclear energy. The way we
have it, however, is very, very fine and highly organized. But in our wall
current we have very raw, extremely forceful, highly disruptive electricity
that can kill us if we come in contact with it. This is fallen light ether. In
strong magnetic fields we have much the same, only this is fallen tone ether.
If you want to erase the patterns in water, use a strong magnet. In a nuclear
power plant we have the worst of all, fallen life ether. Our bodies don't
handle radioactivity well at all.
When we apply Steiner's agricultural
remedies and we use a stirring machine with an electric motor we may very well
be subjecting our remedy to the disruptive forces of sub nature, which is why
Steve Storch is making his stirring machines hydraulic rather than getting
electric motors too close. But with electric motors, and for that matter with
tractors, we ARE playing with the forces of sub-nature.
A field
broadcaster, however, is just a set of coils, diodes and resistors with a top
plate to contact the atmosphere at 9 1/2 feet above ground and a bottom plate
to contact the soil 2 feet deep. There is a difference in electric potential
between the top and bottom plates and this causes a very slight current flow
through the coils. Rather than disrupting the organizational patterns used in
the broadcaster this arrangement establishes them over large areas. It really
gets the patterns, which is to say the most important part of the agricultural
remedies, established very effectively. So how is this more Ahrimanic then a
tractor or spray rig? How is it using the forces of sub-nature?
Many
radionic instruments use electricity and/or magnets. But how do they use them?
Disruptively or disorganizationally? Not at all. Just the opposite. Instead of
raw power electricity and magnetism that disrupts patterns and kills, these
devices do just the opposite and employ electricity and magnetism with a fine
touch, an almost impercepitable adjustment in the organizational patterns.
After all, they are intended to heal.
We could, of course, have
radionic instruments that use specific isotopes of various elements, including
ORME or ORMUS materials. Steiner did some experimentation along these lines
and built some contraptions using radioactive isotopes. As I understand it
much of this portion of Steiner's work has remained unpublished and circulated
only amongst a small circle of workers, but stories are told. Steiner
evidently foresaw the day when Orbitally Rearranged Mono-atomic Elements
(ORME) would be discovered, as he mentions these in talking about
transmutation and making the dandelion remedy in his agriculture course. As I
understand it Bruce Tainio out in Spokane, Washington is experimenting with
using ORMUS materials with radionic instruments, and that this accounts for
some of the seemingly fabulous results he has been able to get. Hopefully at
some point we will see these insights incorporated into field broadcaster
designs.
Try to understand that we are only at the very beginning of a
completely new science and technology. It will revolutionize everything.
Inevitably there will be foot dragging and nay saying. There may even be a
fair bit of murder and mayhem, as the established order has its ways of
resisting change, no matter how inevitable that change may be.
Cheryl
and Hamish are to be commended for their efforts to spread understanding about
these things. You too, Lloyd, Gil, et. al. We are on the cusp of an
astonishing new era. I hesitate to say new age as this term seems to have been
preempted by some with little more than gasseous matter in their craniums. It
will help to be down-to-earth and matter-of-fact about this. We can use more
science and less mumbo jumbo on this subject.
Best, Hugh
Lovel

D&S, /smaller> The Radionics
Wizard weekend must of been very interesting indeed. The world of subtle
energies certainly can spike our curiosity. I have to admit, though, that I
like to keep a grain of skepticism when it comes to certain subject. /smaller> Dear Robin I just got home from the wizards
workshop too. It was fantastic! To top it off a small party of us put a
field broadcaster up in Cheryl Kemp's back paddock (a donation for research
purposes) average one way distance for these people was over 800 miles.
I have been using field broadcasters myself and radionic diagnosis and
treatment of crops via a friend /consultant for three years now and have to
say I am a bit amused when biodynamic farmers have scepticism about
radionics working. Radionics is not very far on from the subtle energies and
forces involved in the use of "proper " BD - particularly the peppering of
insects etc. I can easily understand when those grounded in conventional NPK
science argue, but remain entirely baffled by the amount of energy thats
expended by some BD people trying to prove that radionics is a hoax. Keep an
open mind and think about this - or better still read Hugh Lovel's excellent
post and look at some of the hard science behind radionics. Cheers
