1897: Alternative Health Dictionary on Orgone therapy

orgone therapy (medical orgone therapy, medical orgonomy, orgonomic medicine, orgonomic medicine therapy): System developed by psychoanalyst Wilhelm Reich (1897-1957), who coined the word orgone to refer to a hypothetical fundamental, omnipresent, life-sustaining, intelligent radiation.

Orgone therapy encompasses the Reich Blood Test and Reichian Therapy. The professional activities of medical orgonomists include administering orgone charged water and applying peculiar devices: The orgone field meter and the vacor tube contribute to ostensible diagnosis. The meter shows the extent and strength of the patient's orgone energy field. The vacor tube is an orgone charged glass vacuum tube that glows under the influence of the patient's orgone energy field. The medical dor-buster siphons a toxic form of orgone - dor (an acronym for deadly orgone) - from the patient's body.

1897: New Age Spirituality Dictionary on Wilhelm Reich

Wilhelm Reich

(1897- 1957) Perhaps the only modern men to claim to have created life, he was a conventionally-trained scientist who studied medicine at Vienna University. His main theme was that sexual energy was of vital importance not only to the creation of life but to its complete fulfillment and that sexuality was "the center around which revolves the whole of social life as well as the inner life of the individual. "

Reich eventually concluded that almost all sickness - including psychological ailments such as schizophrenia and depression - was the result of failing to achieve "true orgasm": complete sexual satisfaction. He was an important member of Freud's Psychoanalytic Society in Vienna, but later broke with Freud.

In 1939, forced to leave Austria because of Nazi activity, he settled in New York. In 1935 he had announced that he had succeeded in producing what he called 'bions' from certain substances (such as coal), and that these were capable of developing into protozoa (single-cell organisms). Biologists rejected this, but Reich worked on, and in 1939 announced that the radiation given out by 'bions' produced: from sterilized sea sand was a hitherto unknown form of energy, which he called orgone, and described as "the basic life-stuff of the universe. "

In 1942 he founded the Orgone Institute, a center for development of his theory that the lack of repeated discharge of this energy through "true orgasm" led to both individual and social neuroses. Reich claimed that orgone could be measured, collected in an "orgone box", and used for the treatment of serious diseases, including cancer. However, the United States Food and Drug Administration declared it a fraud and in 1956 he was sentenced to two years imprisonment for contempt of court and violation of the Food and Drug Act: he died in prison a year later.

1897: Spiritual - Theosophy Dictionary on Aries

Aries The ram; the first sign of zodiac, in astrology a masculine, cardinal, fiery sign which governs the eastern quarter and, in the human frame, the head. It is the positive house of Mars and the exaltation of the sun.

In Sanskrit it is called Mesha, presided over or dedicated to the Vedic divinity Varuna, one of the interpretations of the latter being the primeval ocean of galactic space. The twelve great gods of the ancients were equivalent to the celestial regents presiding over the twelve signs of the zodiac. Equating the sons of Jacob with the signs of the zodiac, Aries falls to Gad.

If we take 1897-8 as date of the approximate entry of the sun into Aquarius, the Aries cycle would then have begun about 2400 BC ((originally given as 2443 BC, Blavatsky gives 2410 BC in BCW 8:174n)) and closed around 263 BC when the Pisces cycle began. This agrees very well with other calculations based on the 25,920 years of the precessional cycle, and with very early Babylonian zodiacal records, making due allowance for the uncertainties inherent in the problem.

1897: New Age Spirituality Dictionary on Vampire

Vampire

1) A person who, for sexual or ritual reasons, drinks the blood of others.

2) The vampire is usually believed to be a restless soul of a heretic, criminal or suicide - that refuses to join the ranks of the dead but instead leaves its burial place - in its original body or taking possession of another's corpse - and becomes a bloodsucking creature in order to continue enjoying the pleasures of the living. The belief in vampires dates back to antiquity. Ancient Mesopotamians feared that corpses not properly buried would rise from their graves and attack the living to suck their blood. Homer's Illiad tells of Odysseus traveling beyond the Gates of Hercules to the land of the dead where he pours out blood to attract them that he might gain information from them. Western notions of the vampire come primarily from Slavic folklore, especially as it was interpreted by the author Bram Stoker in his novel Dracula (1897). In some isolated regions of eastern Europe, peasants still hang wreaths of garlic over their doors - a preventive measure cited in Dracula - as protection against evil spirits, but many other aspects of Stoker's story may have been his own invention.

1897: Indian Hindu Dictionary on Bal Gangadar Tilak

Bal Gangadar Tilak (1856-1920): One of India's first prominent nationalist leaders. His efforts towards India's total independence earned him the title of Lokamanya, “Respected of the people.”His efforts were rewarded by a term of six years (1897-1902) in British prisons in India. He developed the ideas of passive resistance, boycotting of British goods, organization of mass opinion, and other political tactics that were later adopted by Mahatma Gandhi. Because of his words, “Swaraj [self-rule] is my birthright,”he has been called the Patrick Henry of India.

1897: Alternative Health Dictionary on Reichian Therapy

Reichian Therapy (psychiatric orgone therapy, Reichian bodywork therapy, Reichian massage; called vegetal therapy in Europe): Psychoanalytic form of bodywork developed by Wilhelm Reich (1897-1957), the discoverer of orgone (see orgone therapy).

According to Reichian theory, blockages to orgone cause neuroses and most physical disorders. Muscular contractions (body armor) in various parts of the body manifest such blockages. The Reichian therapist intuitively decides where the greatest body armor is and seeks to dissolve or dismantle it. Approaches to dissolving this armor include massage and having the patient breathe deeply, cry, gag, kick, make faces, scream, and roll his or her eyes. Reichian Therapy is also called Reichian vegetotherapy.
