“On the organic theory of nature there are two sorts of vibrations which radically differ from each other. There is the vibratory locomotion and there is the vibratory organic deformation; and the conditions for the two types of changes are of a different character. In other words, there is vibratory locomotion of a given pattern as one whole, and there is vibratory change of pattern.”
– Alfred North Whitehead, 1925
Organon and Imago are two new fundamental concepts in physics and biology.
In 1960 I happened to read “New Worlds Beyond the Atom” by Langston Day and G.W. de la Warr. In that year I was experimenting with the pendulum, verifying the “vibration -patterns” of Louis Turenne. Earlier I had ridiculed radiesthesia, but in 1950 I had discovered that the pendulum was not the nonsensical instrument I had judged it to be up to then. From time to time I was soon doing radiesthetic experiments.
When reading the Book I was especially struck by the picture of the two flowers of Aconite (reproduced in Fig. 19) obtained by Mr. de la Warr by placing a bottle of homeopathic pilules of Aconitum C2 in his camera. I had an intuition that there must exist some relation between Mr. de la Warr’s photograph and the vibration patterns of Turenne, although the latter patterns only show geometrical lines. Having no homeopathic pilules at my disposal, or Aconite in the garden, I took a leaf of climbing rose, “Inspiration,” that was covering a wall of my house and I fixed it on the centre of a sheet of paper and started. A reproduction of the vibration-pattern I obtained is seen in Fig.20
I was excited by this result and from that day I have given my time entirely to Radiesthesia with the preconceived intention of trying to find the physical grounds of these phenomena, ie. Mr. de la Warr’s photographs and my vibration-patterns. My experiments led me to the new concepts of organon and imago. To explain these terms it is necessary to enter into some of the details of my experiments.
Mr. de la Warr calls his pictures “photographs” and without considerable explanation this may give rise to misunderstandings as light plays no part in their being. For the sake of clarity I will call them “Energraphs,” as they are produced by the special energy emanating from the object itself. In my research I have used the three following methods:
- The study of Mr. de la Warr’s energraphs as far as possible from publication at my disposal.
- The study of some contact-energraphs made by me with photographic materials.
- The study of numerous vibration-patterns I have detected and recorded by hand.
VIBRATION-PATTERNS
Every natural entity is surrounded by a network or pattern of standing waves that can be detected by a photographic plate as energraphs and contact-energraphs, and by the pendulum is vibration-patterns.
In a short paper like this it is impossible to give explicit descriptions of my method of producing vibration-patterns. I did so recently in the French monthly, “Radiesthesie Magazine.” The quintessence of the method is as follows:
An object is fixed at the centre of a sheet of paper. Displacing an antenna (I used a sharp pointed pencil) with the left hand over the paper along a chosen line, the point of the highest vibrational intensity on that line is discovered by means of the pendulum, held in the right hand.
Fig. 21 is part of the vibration-pattern of a leaf of Euphrasia medicinalis. The points between the lines are points-organon. A cross-section along the line R-S shows the intensity of the electro-magnetic fields of the four organic-lines (see Fig. 22). These characteristic are very important in understanding the problem and therefore it is necessary to enter into further details.
The normal position of the pendulum is rest. Its movements have three principal form as as follows:
SIMPLE MOVEMENT
(a) A positive gyration, clockwise to the right.
(b) A negative gyration, anti-clockwise, to the left.
(c) oscillations.
Between gyration and oscillation we have as transitional movements all sorts of elliptical movements imaginable.
COMBINED MOVEMENT
In addition there is found a special combined movement of positive gyration, oscillation, negative gyration, oscillation and rest, in that order. Points at which this combined movement is observed ae called “double points” (Turenne).
When determining the vibration patterns we find that the positive gyration is by far the most common, it is followed by the combined positive-negative movement, the negative gyration is rare.
There is in this a very marked agreement with the structure of the proteins which form the bulk of living matter. We know that the macromolecules of the proteins are spirals turning to the right and that the macromolecules of the nucleoproteins in the chromosomes are formed by two involved spirals that turn, the one to the right, the other to the left. Now it is significant that the points-organon of such sub-patterns as seem to be in relation to procreation, are double points.
The gyration to the right being by far the most common seems in agreement also with the “spin” i.e. the rotational movement of the smallest particles, electrons, neutrons, etc. around their own axis, which is almost exclusively to the right. It is not possible yet to make any deductions, but it is remarkable.
When we hold the pendulum over a point-organon it begins to gyrate, say clockwise, but this does not continue indefinitely. Abruptly the movement becomes elliptical, then oscillating and then stops. The moment at which the movement becomes elliptical is well marked and the number of gyrations then accomplished is characteristic of that point-organon; I call it its “mark.”
For ordinary points-organon the mark may be any figure up to a hundred or more. We do not know its meaning, but the regularity of its appearance leaves no doubt that it has a meaning. As regards double points I did not meet a “mark” figure other than a 6 or 10 or their multiples.
When detecting the points-organon I keep the cord of the pendulum very short, say two or three cm. above the point of suspension. To detect the point-organon I displace the antenna along a chosen line until the pendulum begins to swing. Then I make the displacements of the antenna as small as possible while the movements of the pendulum grow stronger, until suddenly the pendulum turns so quickly that it is impossible to count its rotations. This indicates that the antenna now stands on the point-organon. I fix it by pressing the pencil strongly on the paper whilst turning it between my fingers. If I want to know the number of rotations of the pendulum I lengthen the cord to say 15 or 20 cm. It is then easy to count the number of rotations.
My observations have led me to consider the number of rotations, other than on the points-organon, as a measure of the intensity of the detected force field. The number is a function of the “mark” and of the intensity of the field. I have followed lines more or less perpendicular to the organic-lines over a great number of vibration-patterns. (It is easily done after laying a sheet of transparent millimetre paper on the drawing). Using the millimetre lines as the horizontal axis and the number of rotations as ordinates I have drawn a great many of the “characteristics.” They are highly instructive for judging the character of the waves that constitute the vibration-pattern.
Electro-magnetic waves and the other waves of vibratory locomotion becomes standing waves by reflection. If a front of running waves is reflected under the required conditions the results is a field of standing waves. The field is limited between the source and the reflector. Characteristic of the field is the sinusoidal form of the standing waves which are uniformly repeated and which are perfectly symmetrical. In such a field a single standing wave is unthinkable. But now look at our patterns: Fig. 22 is an instance out of many. The pattern is composed of single standing waves which, practically without exceptions, are asymmetrical. It is evident that those whose waves cannot be reduced to the laws as yet known to us in physics.
HOMEOPATHIC DILUTIONS
The fact that Mr. de la Warr obtained his two aconite flowers from a bottle of homeopathic pills induced me to take such pill as object. I found that one single pill is sufficient to obtain excellent vibration-patterns. I never have used more than a single one.
Homeopathic pills are prepared by gradual dilution. There are two methods of “dynamizing” as we ay call these methods, the decimal and the centesimal way. Aconitum D10 means the 10th dilution of Aconitum according to the decimal method, Aconitum 2 and Aconitum C2 both mean dilution according to the centesimal method. I have only used pills prepared after the decimal method. Let us see what this means.
For the sake of brevity I will call the medicine that is to be diluted “Med.”. One unit of Med. is diluted in 9 units of solvent. The whole is vigorously shaken for about 50 seconds. This gives Med. D1.
After this one unit of Med. D1 is taken and mixed again with 9 units of solvent. This gives D2. The remaining nine-tenths of Med. D1 are set apart. It is easily seen that to obtain a solution of Med. Dn, n/9 units of solvent are needed.
The concentration of Med.Dn is 1:(10n-1). For higher concentrations the -1 can be neglected and we can write 1:10n. The work is done mechanically. So far for the preparation of homeopathic remedies.
Suppose that the specific gravity of Med. is 1, that water is used as solvent and that we start from 1 cm3 of Med. To get a homeopathic solution Med. D18 concentration 1:1018, we went 9 x 18 = 162 cm3. For a solution of the same concentration for a physical experiment we would have to take 1018cm3 of water. This means a volume equal to the volume of our terrestrial globe. And homeopathic medicines up to D60 are of current use, and if wanted they are available up to D1000.
The pills I use for my vibration-patterns are made of pure cane sugar. When using them for making homeopathic pills ax 100g of pills are moistened with a g of Med. Dn. The whole is intensely shaken and then left for drying. The average weight of the pills I use (granules is the better word, they are very irregular in shape) is 6 mg. It is easy to calculate that one pill of Med. Dn. has an average content of 6 x0 10-(n+5)g of Med.
Homeopathic pills of vegetable origin are obtained by treating an original mass, obtained by triturating the whole plant, roots and all. It is a mixture of hundreds of chemical combinations. We can make all sorts of suppositions about its chemical composition. But calculus tells us, that after the dilution Med. D20 no molecule of the original plant is to be found any more in the homeopathic pill.
But now, when we use them as objects for vibration-patterns, the astonishing fact presents itself that they do not show any differentiation. I have e.g. drawn the vibration-patterns of the the end of a leaf of Aconite and of homeopathic pills of Aconitum D3, D100, D500, D1000. They all give the similar pattern, not identical, but all of the same type, typical of Aconite.
The conclusion is that the leaf and the pills are carriers of identical specific energy centres; I call them “Organon”.
SOME PROPERTIES OF VIBRATION-PATTERNS
One would expect that any dynamic of the nature that we are investigating would cease when the object (the leaf, for instance) is removed from the paper. But that is not so. The points-organon continue to “mark”. I consider that a point “marks” when it causes the pendulum to move, inversely I consider that the pendulum marks when it reacts for any other reason. It seems that while fixing the point with the pencil-antenna on the paper the paper acquires organons at that point. I cut such a point out of the paper and used it as an object and it produce a vibration-pattern similar to that of the object. I have repeated the procedure many times, progressively using fresh sheets of paper without recourse to the original object. This is the reason I call the points by the name “point-organon”‘ they are active. I would define active as any object that in such a series of repetitions still produces the specific pattern.
The “organic-lines” by which I join the point-organon are not active. No point on them will mark, but provided the tracing of the line has been well chosen, it will mark as soon as the object is replaced. Furthermore, when I then press and turn the pencil to fix the point, it then becomes a point-organon too. It would seem that in some instances a certain mechanical force is needed to produce organons with staying power. We have found the same to apply in the preparation of homeopathic pills. Every step in the scale of dilution is dynamised by vigorous shaking and so is the moistening of the sugar pilules with the solution.
After some months of work, I began to draw my patterns on transparent drawing paper. It appears that every point that is active on the tracing paper is active on a photocopy of it also, i.e. the black spot representing the object, and other black spots representing the points-organon. From an original tracing it is possible to take photocopies on a serial type of transparent photocopying paper, called “acutes” by my workshop for the sake of brevity. We can progressively make a second acute, a third and a fourth, etc., and every new acute is active and gives photocopies. I carried out an experiment with a point-organon cut from the vibration-pattern of a pilule of Aconitum D1000, which means that it has already gone through 1,000 stages of progressive dilution, and the points-organon still proved to be active. Making three consecutive acutes from this I cut a point-organon out from the previous one and found that it was still active after the 1,0004 operations. It means that there is the possibility of unlimited propagation in space of the organon.
I also obtained typical vibration-patterns of mere specks of dust of fossils of Orbitolina lenticularis, approximately 100 million years old. It seems that organons are indestructible, immortal.
PHOTOGRAPHS
In 1950 Mr. de la Warr discovered that an ordinary photograph of a person can be used as an intermediary between operator and patient. He supposed that radiations of a person are taken up and re-emitted by the emulsion of a photographic plate. Remembering this I drew a vibration-pattern of a leaf of Euphrasia medicinalis and took a photograph of the middle of the pattern (about normal size). I cut out a square of 18 x 25 mm. containing the photograph of the leaf and used it as the object for a new pattern. The vibration-pattern of the photo-graph is not identical but it is familiar to and as clear and detailed as the vibration-pattern of the original leaf.
From this experiment and from the phototypes it is clear that in given circumstances light, as well as mechanical forces, plays a role in the propagation of the organon.
When I say “propagation” we must bear in mind that the preparation of homeopathic pilules shows that a process of transmission of organons is excluded. Only creation of new organons can be envisaged and for that it is necessary that the organon should have structure. But a structure of what? The combination of two groups of observations gives us the answer.
1. The manufacturing of homeopathic pilules teaches us that the organon is independent of the substance of the entity of which it is typical.
2. The organon is always found in combination with matter, i.e. the sugar of the pills, the emulsions of the plate, the paper of the photostats etc.
In the face of these data it seems that there is only one possible location for it, viz., in the emptiness of the atom but without affecting the chemical of physical properties of the atom.
We are too apt to forget that the atom is a vast emptiness. I borrow an image from Charles-Noel Martin. If we attribute to the nucleus of the atom the dimensions of the sun, the orbit of the two electrons that are nearest to the nucleus is equal by the same scale to that of Pluto, the planet farthest away from the sun — a distance of over 5,000,000,000 kilometres. Yes, between nucleus and electrons all is emptiness.
That is to say a relative emptiness. For a few decades we have known that neither atomic nor interstellar space are an absolute emptiness. Physicists know that besides the gaseous state of matter there exists a fourth state, the plasma. It is plasma that fills the Universe, the atomic as well as the interstellar space. The plasma is composed of ordinary molecules and atoms, of ionised molecules, and of electrons. The frontier with the third state is not sharp. We speak of plasma when an important part of the gas is ionised.
Plasmas differ by the number of particles per cm. cube. The interstellar plasma contains from one to a hundred particles per centimetre cube, in laboratories plasmas of 1010 to 1018 particles per cm3 have been obtained. Of inter-atomic plasma we do not know anything. We are forced, however, to admit that the organon is a structure of its component parts, only a tiny spot perhaps in the immense emptiness of the atom. But a very persistent structure as the vibration-patterns of fossils more than 100 million years old have taught us.
THE IMAGO
But now let us consider the actual manifestations of the organon. They are known to us by the work of Mr. de la Warr. Figs. 20 to 26 in “New Worlds Beyond the Atom” and many others are manifestations of the organon. They are perspective images of what I will call the Imago. Our vibration-patterns are horizontal cross-sections through the imago.
Erwin Schrodinger accounting for the general character of his excellent little book, “What is Life” says that the lectures out of which it arose could not be termed popular “even though the physicists’ most dreaded weapon, mathematical deduction, would hardly be utilised. The reason for this was not that the subject was simple enough to be explained without mathematics, but rather that it was too involved to be fully accessible to mathematics.” And he begins the last chapter with the words: “What I wish to make clear in this last chapter is, in short, that from all wee have learned about the structure of living matter we must be prepared to find it working in a manner that cannot be reduced to the ordinary laws of physics.” Trying to explain the manifestations of the organon we must keep these words in mind.
Since Einstein published his famous equation E=mc2 we know that energy and matter are two aspects of one unknown reality. Matter and energy are quantitatively different manifestations of one fundamental phenomenon viz. vibration. Static vibrations, standing waves, are pure energy, i.e. potential power. Vibratory displacement, running waves, is power. According to Postma the Universe is one reservoir of cosmic potential energy. The material forms are created by radiant cosmic energy which by inner reflection, activated by its inner nature, transforms itself into single standing waves. Postma’s cosmic potential energy and de la Warr’s “pre-phyiscal state” of matter seem identical concepts.
My observations have led me to the following conclusions. The organon seems to have the faculty of activating the potential cosmic energy of the atomic emptiness and to transform it into what I have termed “plastodynamic” radiating energy. The plastodynamic waves have the faculty of transforming themselves into solitary standing waves. into condensed energy or – should I say – a first attempt at materialisation. These standing waves build up the Imago, which reveals itself as the pre-conceived plan of the entity to be.
The imago itself emanates electro-magnetic waves which influence the photographic plate. So the existence of the imago can be proved physically. The above mentioned energraphs of Mr. de la Waarr, of which one is reproduced in Fig . 19, are the indubitable proof of its existence. The Fundamental Rays discovered by Mr. de la Warr are the radiation of the imago. A schematic sketch of the relationship between organon, imago and their radiations is given in Fig. 23.
The imago is composed of standing-wave systems, but in spite of this static structure it is the most variable phenomenon possible. In all his diagnostic instruments Mr. de la Warr has introduced a vertical magnet as a stabaliser. I have, therefore, examined the influence of a magnet on vibration-patterns, i.e. on the imago. In some instances I found distortions of the pattern that made it unrecognisable. All is all my experiments resulted in two conclusions:
- The imago is a manifestation of electro-magnetic energy.
- The imago is strongly influenced by the terrestrial magnetic field.
A good example of the influence of terrestrial magnetism is given by reference to Fig 24.
A copy of the photograph of a leaf of Euphrasia medicinalis mentioned before was taken as an object and pivoted around a central point. The pattern as a whole turns with the object, buts its dimensions change continuously and sometimes enormously. To illustrate this the composite Fig 23 was made. It shows the same sub-pattern of the above-mentioned photograph but in 12 different positions of the object, 30 degrees apart. If we compare the pattern in tits positions marked 3, 4 and 5, the distance from the point of the pattern to the centre for these three positions s 9.5, 23 and 44 cm.
When we waltz our imago contracts and dilates like a concertina. From the purely experimental point of view it implies that, if we want comparable patterns from the same object, we must be very careful about the orientation.
THOUGHT RESONANCE
In 1962 Professor Y. Rocard of the University of Paris proved by scientific experimentation and mathematical deduction that “Man … by means of the dowsing rod or … when he holds a pendulum, owns a curious physiological sense which makes him sensible to inequalities of the magnetic field.” Since then were are justified in considering the man with the pendulum as a physical instrument with a pointer (the pendulum), and one might think it possible that laws will eventually be found which will make the phenomenon fit in with known physical laws. This as regards the movements of the pendulum, but besides we are faded with phenomena that lead us into a completely unknown domain, discovered by Mr. de la Warr. One of the them is the phenomenon he has called “Thought resonance”. The other phenomenon discovered by him, but not denominated, is what I have analysed to be the “four-dimensional radiation” of the organon.
It is with the help of the four-dimensional radiation that Mr. de la Warr has established the physical reality of thought resonance. This has been experimentally possible by the fact that the fundamental waves, the electro-magnetic waves emitted by the imago, have proved to be harmonics of sound waves. I will try to give you a general idea of how thought resonance has been demonstrated but with regard to the instruments used I must refer to “New Worlds Beyond the Atom.”
Thought resonance means that one or more centres in the brain resonate with the specific vibration of material objects. This can be verified by using the detector. The detector consists essentially of a box, covered by a rubber diapahragm, and an antenna that can be applied to the object, thus transferring its vibrations to the box. The operator has to move his fingers over the rubber diaphragm, and by thinking of the objects he can establish resonance with its vibrations and then experiences a “reaction” on the detector. A “stick” occurs when a resonance has been established; this means that his fingers tend to cling more or less to the rubber diaphragm.
The proof that this really indicated thought resonance has been supplied by using two instruments. The first one is a Diagnostic Instrument used to determine the “vibration rates” of healthy or diseased organs, of bacilli, etc. In this instrument are mounted a certain number of circular resonations that can be tuned by means of dials on the outside of the instrument. The dials work freely between two stop pins and provide a proportional measurement of the frequency of the resonator is tuned to.
The arrangement is based on the fact that every material object radiates and is characterised by a set of natural resonance periods. When the resonators are tuned in accordance with these periods, resonance has been established between object and instrument and they vibrate in unison. When the operator concentrates his thoughts on the object resonance is established between object and operator also, and this is experienced by him though the “stick”. the reading on the dials at the moment of the stick are a measure for the resonance periods of the object. Together they are named the “rate” of the object.
Let us note here that it is by the thought of the operator that the rate is revealed. To give an example, let us say that we want to know the rate of Streptococcuw Viridans. A culture of it is placed in the well of the instrument. The operator, turning with one hand the first dial and passing with the other hand over the rubber sheet, concentrates his thoughts on Streptococcus Viridians. When by turning the dial the resonator is tuned to streptococcus, he experiences the stick. He notes the positions on the first dial, 60 (the first dial calibrated 0 to 100). This number regards the whole family of streptococcus. He leaves the first dial at 60 and continues, turning the second dial. Here he feels the stick at 5 (the other dials are calibrated 0 to 10). On the third dial he finds 2. The fourth dial gives no reaction. The rate of Streptococcus Viridians is 60-5-2, (i.e. the rate of the culture as it actually is.) But generally speaking it is evident that, when we think of a living entity without thinking of it at a given stage of its life, we are thinking in vague abstraction. There is very little similarity between a new-born baby and the same man ninety years later. We are forced to take time into account.
We may take the time factor for a living material entity of being indicated by a uniform displacement of the origin of the three axes defining its material form along a fourth axis, the time axis. With every point along this time axis there is a corresponding unique arrangement of the molecules of the entity with a corresponding unique arrangement of the molecules of the entity with a corresponding unique set of natural resonance periods, registered by its “rate”. We have already seen how we can establish the rate of a given object as it actually is. To establish it for a given period of its existence we have to think of the object at the desired moment. The experimental proof that in that way, that is by thought, we actually obtain the right rate, is obtained by using one of the radionic Cameras invented by Mr. and Mrs. de la Warr. In these cameras pictures are produced not by using light but by the energetic action of the organizations of the object on the emulsion of a photographic plate. These are the pictures I called energraphs.
The cameras are combined with a set of resonators like those in the diagnostic apparatus. Now it appears that, when we set the dials in accordance with a given rate, the organon irradiates the corresponding imago.
This is well illustrated by the Figs. 25 and 26, representing the imago of the seed of a horse-chestnut: Fig. 25 for the rate corresponding with the period of “germination”; Fig. 26 for the rate corresponding with the period of “flowering”.
Let alone the working of the camera, the results obtained with it are an undeniable proof of the reality of thought resonance. Mrs. de la Warr has been able to detect by thought over 7,000 rates or dial settings for use with the Diagnostic Instrument. When some of these rates were used for the camera they almost always produced the corresponding energraphs. We preproduce three more energraphs to illustrate it.
The blood specimen of a pregnancy case was used for the experiment. Three rates for human embryo were made, for a one-month foetus, for a two-months’ foetus and one for three months. It is important to note that all three energraphs were taken on the same day and came out of the developing and fixing process together. Figs. 27, 28 and 29 show the result.
Due consideration of the time-axis to which I have referred really demands a fresh rate fore very consecutive day if were are to produce the image that is typical of the entity day for day. And before all things far more comprehensive rates are necessary if we want to have perfect images. The important feature, however, is that even as it is the three-dimensional radiations of the organon are being record by the apparatus and show us potential forms of the entity. The shown form, an image of the imago, is the form of the living entity at the time indicated by the place of the entity on the time-axis. It is a function of the time. And that is why I called it a four-dimensional radiation.
What I have been saying about the energraphs applies to the vibration-patterns as well. If we do not specify a given period in the life of the object of which we are going to draw a pattern, we inevitably find that we are producing the pattern of an abstraction. For radiesthetic reasons I did not do this in the beginning, but later I have set aside my scruples and have concentrated on special periods on the time-axis before beginning to work.
The question was how to do it. I have found that to concentrate, or should I say, to condition my brain, it is sufficient to repeat say ten times a few words referring to the subject but without thinking of anything else. After that it is not necessary to think of the words any more. In that way I have prepared from the pips of a golden rennet the patterns of 1. Germination 2. Before flowering 3. Flowering. 4. Fruition. The results were quite remarkable.
Our vibration-patterns show that every entity has a pattern and that it is typical of the species the entity represents. I can indicate the organons that reproduce it, where necessary, by that entity. One could refer, for instance, to the Aconitum-organon.
CONTACT-ENERGRAPHS
The energraphs of Mr. de la Warr are obtained by the action of the fundamental rays, i.e. of the electro-magnetic radiations emanating from the imago, on the emulsion of the photographic plate. Vibration-patterns are found by detecting with the pendulum the tracing of the imago’s standing waves on the drawing paper. I decided to investigate whether these waves do influence the photographic plate directly. They do, and it has been proved by so-called contact-energraphs.
Mr. de la Warr has made a highly interesting energraphy of a crystal of copper sulphate in “New Worlds Beyond the Atom”. Fig. 16 which is reproduced in Fig. 30.
To obtain a contact-energraph of copper sulphate I dissolved a small piece of a crystal in distilled water and have with a stirring rod put one drop of the solution in the centre of a piece . of cardboard 6 x 9 cm. This piece of cardboard with the absorbed drop I used as the object. It is laid on a table in the dark room and covered with an unexposed photographic plate of the same dimensions emulsion down. This contact has been maintained for 26 minutes in complete darkness.
Lack of space does not allow a description of the complete process involved, but one point must be emphasized. To get results the piece of cardboard must be placed in a special orientations with regard to the magnetic North, the “privileged orientation”. This is found by means of the pendulum.
In Fig. 31 we see the resulting contact energraph. The result may seem poor at first sight, four tiny specks, and one almost invisible. Bit it becomes highly interesting when magnified up. Then the agreement with Fig 20. is evident. We must bear in mind that Fig. 30 is the perspective image of the imago. We tend first of all to think that the point of junction of the beams coincides with the body of the crystal and analogically with the drop of solution on the cardboard but this is not so. The imago is produced by the drop on the cardboard touching the emulsion. The specks on the energraph are the places where the beams penetrate the plate. The point of junction of the beams lies a good distance above the drop of copper sulphate solution.
The enlargements (10 times) seen in Figs. 33 to 36 bring the matter into clearer focus. It is interesting to note that in Fig. 20 the beams present the appearance of quills. On examining Figs. 34, 35, and 36 we see that they are indeed hollow tubes from which radiations are emanating in two opposite directions. Mr. de la Warr has identified the points as follows:
Fig. 33. Hydrogen (H), moisture in the crystal.
Fig. 34. Copper (Cu)
Fig. 35. (Sulphur (S) and Oxygen (O)
Fig. 36 Sodium (impurity).
The age-old controversy between materialists who believe that all in nature can be reduced to material processes, and the vitalists who deny that life can be explained as physical or chemical phenomena, has been decided, in my opinion, by organon with imago in favour of the vitalists. However, this controversy concerns animate matter only.
But now we find the organon present in inanimate matter as well, in its building stones, in the atoms. Here the boundary between animate and inanimate matter seems to vanish, the two realms seem to unite.
Organo and Imago are opening new perspectives in all directions. Towards vibration-patterns, and towards a combination of energraphs and contact-energraphs, an enormous task lies before us. One of the most interesting outcomes is offered by the fact that all organons emanating from the same object appear to have by their structure a common natural vibration period and so vibrate in unison. Between them all a rapport appears to exist.
