Albert Abrams (1863-1924) was the first to employ radionics in the medical field, whereas Curtis P. Upton and William P. Knuth were the first to employ it in the fields of agriculture. But radionics as such is much older than that; the Tibetians already used it in form of the prayer wheels. Feng Shui is nothing else than turning a house into a radionics device that activate the morphic fields at home ?
Abrams was certain that he could cancel out the disease vib rations, if he could build a device that would emit the right wavelengths, rather like a radio transmitter. With the help of his friend, Samuel O. Hoffman, an outstanding radio research engineer, he then built the 'Oscilloclast', with which he could actually cure diseases; the machine emitted waves which changed or cancelled out the waves of the sick molecules. Abrams method requires a high level of concentration on the part of the therapist and is sometimes very time-consuming. This process can be carried out differently with the help of modern technology. [further reading] Curtis P. Upton, was an engineer trained in Princeton, whose father had worked with Thomas Alva Edison, and his colleague at college, William J. Knuth, a specialist in electronics, from Corpus Christi in Texas. Upton was obsessed with the thought of 'oscilloclasts'. He wondered if the curious device which had been used to heal human illness could not also be used for pest control in agriculture.
They wanted to clear the pests from the field without needing to use chemical insecticides. The whole concept was based on the theory that the molecular and atomic components of the photograph would vibrate at the same frequencies as the objects that they represented. This had already been discovered by Bovis in the 1930s, but the two American engineers did not know this.
On the East Coast of the United States, another student colleague of Upton's at Princeton, Howard Armstrong, who had become a chemist, started to check out his friend's method in Pennsylvania. After he had taken an aerial photograph of a maize field which had already been attacked by pests, he cut a corner of the photo off. He placed the rest on the 'collector plate' of an Upton-type radionics devic e and added a small portion of an insecticide that had been obtained from the roots of a wood Asiatic vine. After a number of five to ten minute treatments, in which the dials were set to particular levels, a 'pest count' was carefully carried out. It showed that eighty to ninety percent of the beetles from the maize plants in the treated part of the photo had either died or disappeared. The untreated plants in the corner that had been cut off the photo, however, continued to be 100% affected!
Years later, further tests were to follow, carried out by T. Galen Hieronymus, an appliance engineer at the Kansas City Power and Light Company. He also succeeded in 1949 in being awarded USA-Patent Number 2 482 773 for the 'registration and measurement of the rays from all sort of different materials'.
In a maize field, he picked out three corn cobs, each of which had a maize worm. He packed the cobs up so that the worms could not escape and started to treat them with his radionic transmitter. After three days in which he carried out the treatment for ten minutes per hour over a period of 24 hours, two of the worms had turned to pulp. But the third was still eating. After a further 24 hours of the same treatment, the stubborn worm had also suffered the same fate. Nothing remained of the two others apart from two damp stains on the corn cob. Hieronymus was so impressed and horrified by the fatal power of his appliance that he decided never to give any precise details about the design and function of his device unless there were serious, honest researchers who would be able to help him to clarify the basic principles of his work." Hieronymus described an experiment that can be repeated by any gardener. He planted seeds in a darkened basement in pots and tied the plants through wires to metal plates outside the building which were exposed to sunlight. The elements that the plant needs to grow normally were obviously supplied through the wires and the associated electrodes. In fact, the treated plants stayed relatively healthy, whilst the control plants which had been left without wires showed all the characteristics of plants that had been deprived of those elements that exposure to sunlight brings. The publication of this patent had two important consequences. Firstly, the trained, innovative scientist John Campbell, heard about the invention and ordered a copy of the patent. He built the device in accordance with Hieronymus' instructions and tested it an endless number of times. He found that it actually worked and wrote, in the early 1950s, a positive report about it in his magazine, which triggered a huge demand for copies of the patent and which caused many people to experiment with the device themselves. "It is even harder to believe the reports of the agricultural use of radionics, which had been tried out for the first time at the end of the 1960s and beginning of the 1970s. For example, Dr. William J. Hale, Head of Research at the 'Dow Chemical Company', in central Florida, had photographed a citrus fruit plantation suffering from pests from the plane. He placed the photograph in a radionic device and painted every second row of trees (in the picture!) with a strong insecticide. Then Hale took the device to the planter and instructed him to operate the device for two hours every morning. A week later, according to a report from Joseph F. Goodervage in the anthology 'Future Science' (publ. John White & Stanley Krippner), every second row of the plantation had been freed from any pests. In the untreated rows of trees, on the other hand, the destructive work by the nematodes, which are amongst the worst pests in the world and which normally defy even the strongest pesticides, had continued. In summary, it can be said that there are many indications that radionics is the missing, spiritually informed component that was so far not taken into consideration in our materially structured way of seeing and thinking. As with the physical discovery that the spirit is above matter, radionic diagnostic and therapy processes have a potential which is at least the equivalent of our traditional processes, but which will probably turn out to be far superior.
