This is a page to explain who Wilhelm Reich really is, (no past tense here, for Truth, Love and Knowledge, are an Eternal Continuum, and so is the Soul that adheres to these three precious principles, such as Wilhelm Reich).
Many biographies have been written about Him. All of them tainted with that special personal shade that only a hurt ego can bring forth, announcing its presence loud and clumsily, to an equally loud and clumsy “audience”, ready to accept its “version” of events, a version based on that “added” attritube that a memory soaked in ego, inherently always carries: deception.
But there is no room for ego in the realm of Truth.
That’s why, all of those little books written about Him, have been found guilty, in Reality’s Courtroom, by the Real Supreme Judge: Life, of which Its dearest Messenger, is my Friend. The Man judged by a million liars.
One cannot describe the Sun to the blind and the prisoner, by purposefully ignoring its obvious attributes of Life giving energy, its warmth, its light.
But that is exactly what every author that has had the “call” and the “audacity” to write about the Man that Discovered Life, has done: ignore the obvious, intentionally or by ignorance, and bring forth the “human” details of His life.
Am I implying that He was more than just “human”? No, but He lived and applied those insights and hints at Eternity that the Muse of Wisdom and Truth, touches us all with at one point of our lives, until His very last breath, disclosing to a blindfolded humanity, the True Nature of their existence.
The True Nature of our existence …… a Reality both so obvious and incredible, that It has had The Club working overtime at full power, since humanity got infected with the fantastic thought of being superior to Nature, to ensure that gross deviation follows its crooked path, within the psyche of the misguided.
And what a tragic proportion has that deviation from Life, from Reality, taken ….. what started as a fraction of a degree is now so far from the original, from the authentic, that looking back we no longer descry the Core, whence It All emerged.
But Life counteracted ignorance’s attack by arming Its Dearest and Sharpest Soldier, with the wisdom and strenght of a thousand northen winds, sweeping over scorched wastelands, and bringing over the healing rain of Wisdom.
This website has a very personal and intimate character. My writtings are not “intellectualized”, (and yet, are accurate, in accordance to True facts, based on the reading, devotion and research of thousands of pages related to the subject), but emerge right off my heart. And the heart, my friend, is where Truth lives.
I tend to take for granted that not everybody is as familiar with Wilhelm Reich’s Writtings as I would prefer, this fact, to be. Therefore, I write from my personal experience and point of view. This, in no way, alters the facts, however, for once one has been in the presence of Truth, (thank you Wilhem), one cannot help but to throw away masks and formalities, and confront the lie hammering its ugly face, right between the eyes.
Yes, my writting is very passionate in regards to this Man. I have been, say, “baptized”, by Truth in His Work. This is neccessary because we are all helplessly dispossessed of It, initially by default, subsequently by personal consent, as per the fine print at the bottom of the contract we all signed upon agreeing to exist in this strange world …. that confirms a large supply of free will, when confronted with the eternal duality: ignorance or wisdom.
The reader will notice how I always use a capital block letter when any alusion to Him or His work is made, almost reminiscent of a religious character ….. no obssesive irrational opinion has been formed by the writer, in regards to Wilhem Reich. I have simply read His Work, and a gradual understanding of what His Discovery really Was, has, inevitably, led me to appreciate and be in eternal gratitude to this Man, whom I refer to as, my Friend.
A Real Friend.
No time should be wasted by the Soul whose most refined quest for Truth, leads him or her to a search of Wilhelm Reich’s Work, for once you embark into the train of Knowledge of His Writtings, there is only but one way:
Forward, at an increased speed.
A speed that will promptly lead you to lose sight of the world around …. no … not losing a grip on reality but handling and understanding it for what it really is …..
Once on this Train, no stops are made. As we pass the small villages left and right of the wagon, crowds will gather at the windows, begging you to step down and pay a visit to their small town … but the Train goes too fast and you are enjoying the Ride too much, to even notice those poor creatures …. a Train also came for them once, but they not only refused to embark, they tried to set it on fire and sell the remainings to their local yunkyard, in exchange for some bread ….. the situation got so bad that no stops are made anymore by the Train of Knowlege, and so now, the villagers only watch and beg each time that Train swifts by, carrying the odd Soul that has managed to purchase a firt class ticket ….
…. a ticket handed freely by Wilhelm Reich. All that is required in exchange, is the undestanding of a pure Soul.
So who was my Friend?
A small background on His Life is neccessary to hold a correct perspective on the development of His Work:
He was born to a prosperous family and was schooled at home, by His mother, whom He loved very dearly.
Soon He was to become an orphan after the death of His beloved mother and later on, His father, while He was still quite young. His only brother also died of TB, leaving Him alone at a very early age, in charge of all the properties He inherited.
But the first WW destroyed everything, leaving a very young Reich, alone and despossed, of any material means to survive. The only way out for Him, was to enroll the military.
This sequence of events was this world’s way of saying: “welcome, Reich, try to prove the lords of darkness wrong, on their assumption of the evil and rotten essence of the reality You have been brought forward to …. “
And He did. He proved them wrong, one by one. From freud to einstein, He demonstrated the supremacy of Life over “death instincts” and “atomic bombs”.
No “Manhattan project”, nor any other of the countless and grotesque displays of psycopathy, by The Club, was to be a match for the spark of Life He was able to visualize and measure, in His laboratory in Maine ….
…… oh please, read “The Cancer Biopathy“, and allow Life to speak straight to your Core ….. the Discovery of Life by the Greatest western Scientist, is explained in detail within the pages of that Book! that is to say: The Discovery of You and Me! ….. and what we are really made of! ….
War threw on His face the ephemeral and hypocritical essence of the ideals of a suffering and misguided humanity. A lifeless humanity that relied on the furer in charge for guidance.
It was not race, nor political ideals, it was not even hunger or the uncertainty of an imminent second WW approaching. It was the lack of Life within the core of their beings, that made the masses react as one, with a single grotesque voice, raising their fist against their brothers.
Lacking Life, a secondary parasitical force took over like a Tsunami engulfs everything on its way, filling that void with the pseudo reality of a life filthy with lies and illusions of superiority, not superiority over jews nor women, superiority over Nature. A simple impossiblity that only a lifeless entity, can accept.
Witnessing the profound effect, that void left in a Lifeless creature’s core, made Him pursue the answer to the only valid question, a Soul following the correct path towards Truth, could raise: what is Life?
Once the witnessing and experiencing of human pathology at its most barbaric expression, that of war, was completed, He decided to study the human psyche, to find an answer to another question, a very important one: what is it that makes humans turn into mindless monsters?
He immediately found a prominent place under Freud’s exclusive group of eminent and brightest students, indeed, being the youngest, He became his predilect disciple, until the master was challenged in his “death theory” by Life’s Defender: Wilhelm Reich.
With Freud He was taught that humans are basically losers. That we all lean towards a death instinct, that given the choice between good and bad, we eventually choose the bad, because, deep inside, Freud says, we have a self destructive tendency towards death, and that this “attribute” is in line with the entropic nature of the Universe … a lack of order … a pointless survival of the fittest scenario where once the needs are met, we simply drift away into the “nothingness” whence it all emerged …… so it’s not only us, humans, you see, but everything that is alive …..
To this, my Friend said a loud and clear: NO.
He found that not only Life has a very specific purpose in all of Its Manifestations, but that Life Never Ends, that in accordance with the functional scientific method of thinking, there is an equivalent to entropy, but on the opposite end of the same measurement scale … that is, at the same rate this proven, and cherished by The Club, disordered law takes place in the Universe, leading towards chaos and eventual elimination, an antithetical Law takes place, restoring order and establishing continuation.
Eternity was proven.
Life’s Defender threw the first pebble at Goliath’s ugly face.
This NO made Him being expulsed from the psychoanalitic association.
He did not say NO to the big boys (He was the youngest and most admired student of Freud), to gain attention to Himself, He did not need it, He already Had it due to His own merits. He said NO to the death instinct because He discovered what made the masses follow that self destructive instinct: it was the same reason they followed the furer as one, the same reason they raised their fists against their brothers, the reason was, again, the lack of Life within their inner core. This was not an innate attribute of the living, as Freud insisted, but it was due to a infestation of the Core within the human being, He called this infestation: the psychic plague (later on to be termed: “The emotional plague”).
But then again ….. what caused this “infestation”?
This “psychic” plague was the result of the inability of man to surrender to Life, its most obvious expression was the absence of love in the sexual act, leading to secondary drives replacing the natural drive to love, and be loved.
The natural ability to simply surrender to the ocean of a Life streaming process, is what Wilhelm Reich termed: “Orgastic Potency”.
While being a psychoanalyst, He found out that, practically everybody was armored against Life, that is, everyone supressed That which is Alive, within themselves, and replaced It with an armor, a pseudo self that finds no place within Nature, within Life’s realm.
Fully deluded within his pathological assumption of superiority, man found himself being both victim and perpetrator of his nightmare, self dissociated from his source, keeping the flame that burns the bridge between his ignorance and Reality, ever alive.
To be accurate, and being strictly in accordance with the real events that drove Reich outside of the International Psychoanalitic Association, it was rather the Man Himself who left the club, being led by the forces of Life, that is, by the forces of what is Real, and Him, allowing for that Force to flow and guide His steps, ever away from a circle of dried up intellects, defenders and emisaries of death, itself, and not a forceful “dismisal” from the mentioned group, just another club within “The Club”, home to the “all knowing, all powerful” entities, that rule this world.
This branch of The Club, the International Psychoanalytical Association, a very powerful organization back in the days when psyches were worth analizing …. ( now there is hardly anything left to analize, in that sense, but that would be a complete different story) …. had a sole objective in its rotten mind: to destroy Wilhelm Reich and His Work.
Sadly, they did.
They were the ones behind the vicious attacks on His Work towards the end of His physical life, when the most important Discovery within the realm of Orgonomy was found. Them, the IPA, along with the FDA, sent the Discoverer of Life to prison, where they killed Him.
But only momentarily ….. only for a brief moment in time, was the eternal flame of Life, “dimmed” …… for a fire only gets stronger when tried to be blown away, by the weakness of desperation ….
The importance of the Discovery of the Living function, was to guide Wilhelm Reich’s rest of His days, in a passionate and unabated battle against those that advocated the empty and meaningless existence of all living creatures, where the birth of a living organism was simply the product of certain laws that could be proved in a sterile laboratory, by equally sterile minds, and that the logical sequence between birth and death was nothing more than a struggle to survive, to perpetuate the species by mating, before decay and finally, death.
And with each denial of the Truth that He was just beginning to prove, by the enemies of Life, the same Law that governs the Universe granted unlimited degrees of strength and wisdom to the Man that was to confront, not only the most powerful in charge on Earth, but also their masters, the ones they serve and respond to: off planet entities.
