Introduction

I first became aware of Allan H. Frey’s work at Willow Grove in 1972, just after completing “The Holographic Concept of Reality.” I was working with Dr. Carl Scheicher (MRU) at the time, and was asked about the significance of this work. Realizing its possible use in mind control, my first reaction was to go on “red alert.”

Full significance was not yet understood at this time. Basically, Frey had discovered another sensory motor input in the higher blue-band frequencies of 0.3-3.0 GHz. – at very low amplitudes of power. It was “as if” we had another type of “vision,” but did not know how to “see” what was being received. It constituted the next generation of subliminal communications.

My work at the time was involved with an AI database for paranormal references (Project Parafile). A second paper was also presented at the Omniversal Symposium, California State College at Sonoma, (September 29, 1973). This was titled “Embryonic Holography,” and was an application of “The Holographic Concept of Reality” model. It dealt with biogenesis and neurological regeneration, and included speculation on the origins of cancer, faith healing, psychic surgery and more technical aspects of mind-body energetics.

One week after the delivery of that paper, four men came into my place of business, two in suits and two in full Army dress. The two suits held me under close arrest, while the two Army personnel went through my files, pulling anything related to “Embryonic Holography.” The paper was rewritten from old notes and memory, but it was not the same.

What got this paper classified “top secret” for almost 20 years was that it was critical for the use of Allan Frey’s study, and its possible application to mind control. I never was able to draw what was so important in that initial paper until I began researching this paper, more than 24 years later. I will discuss those aspects further into this document.

In 1961, Allan Frey, a freelance biophysicist and engineering psychologist, reported that humans could hear microwaves. Most United States scientists dismissed this discovery as the result of outside noise.

James C. Linn offered a more technical description of the experiment.

“Frey found that human subjects exposed to 1310 MHz and 2982 MHz microwaves at average power densities of 0.4 to 2 mW/cm2 perceived auditory sensations described as buzzing or knocking sounds. The sensation occurred instantaneously at average incident power densities well below that necessary for known biological damage and appeared to originate from within or near the back of the head.”

Pulsed Microwave Technology
(top)

Pulsed microwave voice-to-skull (or other-sound-to-skull) transmission was discovered during World War II by radar technicians who found they could hear the buzz of the train of pulses being transmitted by radar equipment they were working on. This phenomenon has been studied extensively by Dr. Allan Frey, (Willow Grove, 1965) whose work has been published in a number of reference books.

What Dr. Frey found was that single pulses of microwave could be heard by some people as “pops” or “clicks”, while a train of uniform pulses could be heard as a buzz, without benefit of any type of receiver.

Dr. Frey also found that a wide range of frequencies, as low as 125 MHz (well below microwave) worked for some combination of pulse power and pulse width. Detailed unclassified studies mapped out those frequencies and pulse characteristics which are optimum for generation of “microwave hearing”.

Very significantly, when discussing electronic mind control, is the fact that the peak pulse power required is modest – something like 0.3 watts per square centimeter of skull surface, and that this power level is only applied or needed for a very small percentage of each pulse’s cycle time. 0.3-watts/sq cm is about what you get under a 250-watt heat lamp at a distance of one meter. It is not a lot of power.

When you take into account that the pulse train is off (no signal) for most of each cycle, the average power is so low as to be nearly undetectable. This is the concept of “spike” waves used in radar and other military forms of communication.

Frequencies that act as voice-to-skull carriers are not single frequencies, as, for example TV or cell phone channels. Each sensitive frequency is actually a range or “band” of frequencies. A technology used to reduce both interference and detection is called “spread spectrum”. Spread spectrum signals usually have the carrier frequency “hop” around within a specified band.

Unless a receiver “knows” this hop schedule in advance, like other forms of encryption there is virtually no chance of receiving or detecting a coherent readable signal. Spectrum analyzers, used for detection, are receivers with a screen. A spread spectrum signal received on a spectrum analyzer appears as just more “static” or noise.

The actual method of the first successful unclassified voice to skull experiment was in 1974, by Dr. Joseph C. Sharp and Mark Grove, then at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research. A Frey-type audible pulse was transmitted every time the voice waveform passed down through the zero axes, a technique easily duplicated by ham radio operators who build their own equipment.

The sensation is reported as a buzzing, clicking, or hissing which seems to originate within or just behind the head. The phenomenon occurs with carrier densities as low as microwatts per square centimeter with carrier frequencies from 0.3-3.0 GHz. By proper choice of pulse characteristics, intelligent speech may be created.

Dr. James Lin of Wayne State University has written a book entitled: Microwave Auditory Effects and Applications. It explores the possible mechanisms for the phenomenon, and discusses possibilities for the deaf, as persons with certain types of hearing loss can still hear pulsed microwaves (as tones or clicks and buzzes, if words aren’t modulated on). Lin mentions the Sharp and Grove experiment and comments: “The capability of communicating directly with humans by pulsed microwaves is obviously not limited to the field of therapeutic medicine.”

“Synthetic Telepathy”
previous / (top)

In 1975, researcher A. W. Guy stated that “one of the most widely observed and accepted biologic effects of low average power electromagnetic energy is the auditory sensation evoked in man when exposed to pulsed microwaves.”

He concluded that at frequencies where the auditory effect can be easily detected, microwaves penetrate deep into the tissues of the head, causing rapid thermal expansion (at the microscopic level only) that produces strains in the brain tissue.

An acoustic stress wave is then conducted through the skull to the cochlea, and from there, it proceeds in the same manner as in conventional hearing. It is obvious that receiver-less radio has not been adequately publicized or explained because of national security concerns.

Today, the ability to remotely transmit microwave voices inside a target’s head is known inside the Pentagon as “Synthetic Telepathy.” According to Dr. Robert Becker, “Synthetic Telepathy has applications in covert operations designed to drive a target crazy with voices or deliver undetected instructions to a programmed assassin.”

This technology may have contributed to the deaths of 25 defense scientists variously employed by Marconi Underwater and Defense Systems, Easems and GEC. Most of the scientists worked on highly sensitive electronic warfare programs for NATO, including the Strategic Defense Initiative. It is claimed that directed energy weapons might have been used to literally drive these men to suicide and 291accidents.

Biological Amplification
Using Microwave Band Frequencies
previous / (top)

The next major development in ELF weaponry was the concept of a biological amplification of these signals at the cell level to perpetuate and set up resonance for more sophisticated information transfer. This was the beginning of using more than one technology in a stack to do something “more.” While this was implied, it was never developed in “The Holographic Concept of Reality.”

Electromagnetic fields or relatively weak power levels can affect intercellular communication. Bio-amplification is apparently why radio signals of very low average power (mw) can produce audio effects, and is difficult to detect. [Electromagnetic Interaction with Biological Systems, ed. Dr. James C. Lin, Univ. of Illinois, 1989, Plenum Press, NY]

Imposed weak low frequency fields (and radio frequency fields) that are many orders of magnitude weaker in the pericellular fluid (fluid between adjacent cells) than the membrane potential gradient (voltage across the membrane) can modulate the action of hormones, antibody neurotransmitters and cancer-promoting molecules at their cell surface receptor sites.

These ELF sensitivities appear to involve nonequilibrium and highly cooperative processes that mediate a major amplification of initial weak triggers associated with the binding of these molecules (specific cell surface receptor sites). Membrane amplification is inherent in this trans-membrane signaling sequence.

Initial stimuli associated with weak perpendicular EM fields and with binding of stimulating molecules at their membrane receptor sites elicit a highly cooperative modification of Ca++ binding to glycoproteins along the membrane.

A longitudinal spread is consistent with the direction of extracellular current flow associated with physiological activity and imposed EM fields. This cooperative modification of surface Ca++ binding is an amplifying stage. By imposing RF fields, there is a far greater increase in Ca++ efflux than is accounted for in the events of receptor-ligand binding. from imposing RF fields.

Enzymes are protein molecules that function as catalysts, initiating and enhancing chemical reactions that would not otherwise occur at tissue temperatures. This ability resides in the pattern of electrical charges on the molecular surface.

Activation of these enzymes and the reactions in which they participate involve energies millions of times greater than in the cell surface, triggering events initiated by the EM fields, emphasizing the membrane amplification inherent in this trans-membrane signaling sequence.

Frey and Messenger confirmed that a microwave pulse with a slow rise time was ineffectual in producing an auditory response. Only if the rise time is short, resulting in effect in a square wave with respect to the leading edge of the envelope of radiated radio-frequency energy, does the auditory response occur. This is why we don’t “hear” ordinary radio and TV signals.

The significance of “Embryonic Holography” now becomes more understandable. For example, the specific frequency bands (0.3-3.0 Hz) are so flat as to appear almost 2-dimensional to most biological processes on a semi-quantum mechanical level. This means that these frequencies can be seen as “scalar” in their possible interaction with specific brain processes.

What these frequencies really are, however, are actual holograms of specific thoughts. They have a third component of detail (much like the patented P300 wave). This means that a hybrid form of brain fingerprinting is now possible. And, once these “images” are stored (usually in a very sophisticated super-cooled computer), similar responses can be fed back to the person, inducing virtually any state desired (via entrainment protocols).

Silent Sound Technology – “S-quad”
previous / (top)

Silent (converted-to-voice FM) hypnosis can be transmitted using a voice frequency modulator to generate the “voice.” It is a steady tone, near the high end of hearing range (15,000 Hz), plus a hypnotist’s voice, varying from 300 – 4,000 Hz. These two signals are frequency modulated. The output now appears as a steady tone, like tinnitus, but with hypnosis embedded. The FM-voice controls the timing of the transmitter’s pulse.

Each vertical line is one short pulse of microwave signal at a frequency to which the human brain is sensitive. Timing of each microwave pulse is controlled by each down-slope crossing of the voice wave (Sharp’s method, 1974). Then the brain converts the train of microwave pulses back to inaudible voice. There is no conscious defense possible against this form of hypnosis.

Ordinary radio and TV signals use a smooth waveform called a ‘sine’ wave. This wave signal cannot normally penetrate the voltage gradient across the nerve cell walls. Radar signals consist of very short and powerful pulses of sine wave type signals, and can penetrate the steep voltage gradient across these nerve cell walls (Allan H. Frey, Cornell University, 1962).

Differences in osmosis of ions (dissolved salt components) cause a small voltage difference across cell walls. When a small voltage appears across a very tiny distance, the change in voltage is called very ‘steep.’ It is this steep gradient that keeps normal radio signals from throwing us into convulsions.

The mind-altering mechanism is based on a subliminal carrier technology: the Silent Sound Spread Spectrum (SSSS), sometimes called “S-quad” or “Squad”. It was developed by Dr Oliver Lowery of Norcross, Georgia, and is described in US Patent #5,159,703, “Silent Subliminal Presentation System”, dated October 27, 1992. The abstract for the patent reads:

“A silent communications system in which nonaural carriers, in the very low or very high audio-frequency range or in the adjacent ultrasonic frequency spectrum are amplitude- or frequency-modulated with the desired intelligence and propagated acoustically or vibrationally, for inducement into the brain, typically through the use of loudspeakers, earphones, or piezoelectric transducers. The modulated carriers may be transmitted directly in real time or may be conveniently recorded and stored on mechanical, magnetic, or optical media for delayed or repeated transmission to the listener.”

According to literature by Silent Sounds, Inc., it is now possible, using supercomputers, to analyze human emotional EEG patterns and replicate them, then store these “emotion signature clusters” on another computer and, at will, “silently induce and change the emotional state in a human being”.

Edward Tilton, President of Silent Sounds, Inc., says this about S-quad in a letter dated December 13, 1996:

“All schematics, however, have been classified by the US Government and we are not allowed to reveal the exact details… … we make tapes and CDs for the German Government, even the former Soviet Union countries! All with the permission of the US State Department, of course… The system was used throughout Operation Desert Storm (Iraq) quite successfully.”

“Induced Alpha to Theta Biofeedback Cluster Movement” is an output from “the world’s most versatile and most sensitive electroencephalograph (EEG) machine”. This device has a gain capability of 200,000, as compared to most other EEG machines (with gain capability of 50,000). It is software-driven by the “fastest of computers” using a noise nulling technology similar to that used by nuclear submarines for detecting small objects underwater at extreme range.

The purpose of all this high technology is to plot and display a moving cluster of periodic brainwave signals. The illustration shows an EEG display from a single individual, taken of left and right hemispheres simultaneously. This technology is very similar to that used to generate P300 waves.

Cloning the Emotions
previous / (top)

By using these computer-enhanced EEGs, scientists can identify and isolate the brain’s low-amplitude “emotion signature clusters,” synthesize them and store them on another computer. In other words, by studying the subtle characteristic brainwave patterns that occur when a subject experiences a particular emotion, scientists have been able to identify the concomitant brainwave pattern and can now duplicate it.

“These clusters are then placed on the Silent Sound[TM] carrier frequencies and will silently trigger the occurrence of the same basic emotion in another human being!”

Regarding system delivery and applications, there is a lot more involved here than a simple subliminal sound system. There are numerous patented technologies that can be piggybacked individually or collectively onto a carrier frequency to elicit all kinds of effects.

There appear to be two methods of delivery with the system. One is direct microwave induction into the brain of the subject, limited to short-range operations. The other, as described above, utilizes ordinary radio and television carrier frequencies.

Far from necessarily being used as a weapon against a person, the system does have limitless positive applications. However, the fact that the sounds are subliminal makes them virtually undetectable and possibly dangerous to the general public.

In more conventional use, the Silent Sounds Subliminal System might utilize voice commands, e.g., as an adjunct to security systems. Beneath the musical broadcast that you hear in stores and shopping malls may be a hidden message that exhorts against shoplifting. And while voice commands alone are powerful, when the subliminal presentation system carries cloned emotional signatures, the result is overwhelming.

Free-market uses for this technology are the common self-help tapes, positive affirmation, relaxation and meditation tapes, as well as methods to increase learning capabilities. But there is strong evidence that this technology is being developed toward global mind control.

The secrecy involved in the development of the electromagnetic mind-altering technology reflects the tremendous power that is inherent in it. To put it bluntly, whoever controls this technology can control the minds of men – all men.

There is evidence that the U.S. Government has plans to extend the range of this technology to envelop all peoples, all countries. This can be accomplished, and is being accomplished, by utilizing the nearly completed HAARP project for overseas areas and the GWEN network now in place in the U.S. The U.S. Government denies all this.

Dr Michael Persinger is a Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at Laurentian University, Ontario, Canada. His work and findings indicate that strong electromagnetic fields can and will affect a person’s brain.

“Temporal lobe stimulation can evoke the feeling of a presence, disorientation, and perceptual irregularities. It can activate images stored in the subject’s memory, including nightmares and monsters that are normally suppressed.”

Mind Reading Devices
previous / (top)

Alan Yu, a former lieutenant colonel in the Taiwan National Defense Department, says that the United States has not only developed an operational mind control machine, but has also distributed models for use by allied countries. Yu states that such machines pose a great threat to human rights and the American way of life. He calls the device the “Mind Reading Machine” (Mind Machine).

Yu writes that there are two sources of information detailing the existence of the Mind Reading Machine. The first evidence: In the 1970s, The South China Morning Post reported that the University of Maryland had invented a Thought Reading Machine. The original purpose of this invention was to help authorities investigate severe car accidents. It was to be used on people who were severely injured to get their accounts of how the accidents occurred.

In the spring of 1984, Yu was a lieutenant colonel serving in the National Defense Department of Taiwan. At that time, Yu read a classified document from the department that he serviced under. The document said the Military Police Department of Taiwan had purchased several of the Mind Reading Machines from the United States (In Taiwan, it was called Psychological Language Machine).

The document was a request to the United States for parts to repair several malfunctioning machines. The machine allegedly uses microwaves to deliver spoken messages directly to the human brain, as well as using radio waves to hypnotize people or change their thoughts. Yu reports that before he left, this machine had become the most effective weapon for the security departments of Taiwan.

In 1993, Defense News announced that the Russian government was discussing with American counterparts the transfer of technical information and equipment known as “Acoustic Psycho-correction.” The Russians claimed that this device involves the transmission of specific commands via static or white noise bands into the human subconscious without upsetting other intellectual functions.

Demonstrations of this equipment have shown encouraging results after exposure of less than one minute and have produced the ability to alter behavior on unwilling subjects. A US Department of Defense medical engineer claimed in 1989 that the U.S. and Israel had regularly used microwaves to condition and control the minds of Palestinians.

Unclassified ELF-Type Weapons
previous / (top)

Remote physical manipulation: Not covered in this document. At time of writing, that technology appears to be classified.

Transmission methods for neuro-effective signals: This includes pulsed microwave (i.e., like radar signals) and ultrasound and voice-FM (transmitted through the air), which is also known as “Synthetic Telepathy.”

While transmission of speech, dating from the early 1970s, was the first use of pulsed microwave, neuro-effective signals can now cause many other nerve groups to become remotely actuated. That specific technology is classified.

Pavlovian hypnotic triggers: A [Pavlovian] hypnotic trigger is a phrase or any sensory cue that the subject is programmed to involuntarily act in a certain way. MKULTRA survivors can still be triggered from programming done decades ago.

One of the main goals of the institutional/drug/child abuse phases of the CIA MKULTRA atrocities (1950′s through 1970′s) was to implant triggers using a “twilight state” (half-conscious) medication and tape-recorded hypnosis. The ultimate goal was to have the acting out of Pavlovian triggers erased from the victim’s memory.

These triggers are now planted using either of the above two transmission methods, but with the words moved up just above (or near the top of) the audible frequency range. The result is that hypnotic triggers are planted without the subject being aware. This technology was used in the Gulf War as “Silent Sound.”

Through-wall surveillance methods: This includes top end of microwave (near infrared), and the so-called “millimeter wave” scanning. This method uses the very top end of the microwave radio signal spectrum just below infrared. To view small objects or people clearly, the highest frequency that will penetrate non-conductive or poorly-conductive walls is used.

Millimeter wave scanning radar can be used in two modes: The first is passive (no radiated signal) and uses background radiation already in the area to be scanned. It is totally undetectable. The active system uses a (low power millimeter wave) “flashlight” attached to the scanner.

Thought reading: Thought reading can be classed as a form of “through wall surveillance” technology. In the unclassified and commercial realms, it is called thru-skull microwave reading, and magnetic skull-proximity reading.

Brain entrainment: This involves moods and sleep states, the reverse of biofeedback. The low frequency electrical brain rhythms are characteristics of various moods and states of sleep. Not only can they now be read out using biofeedback equipment or EEG machines, but also radio, sound, contact electrodes, or flashing lights. These moods and sleep states can be generated or at least encouraged using brain entrainment devices.

Brain entrainment signals cannot carry voice, which is a much higher frequency range. Brain entrainment can, however, be used to “set up” a target to make him/her more susceptible to hypnosis.

Implantation:(no longer required)

Specific ELF Weapons

Ultrasound and Voice-FM: Main advantage in mind control work is that it can carry verbal hypnosis, more potent than simple biorhythm entrainment. An example is Chicago’s Airport Terminal connection tunnels and their “Keep Walking.”

Steady tone, near the high end of hearing range (15,000 Hz). Hypnotist’s voice, varying from 300 to 4,000 Hz, fed into a frequency modulator, where the voice controls the frequency. Output is now a steady tone, sounding like tinnitus, but with hypnosis embedded. While the brain can hear and understand, the ear only hears a “tone” or a “rush.”

Thought Readings: Thought reading is an enhanced version of computer speech recognition, with EEG waves being substituted for sound waves. The easiest “thought” reading is actually remote picking up of the electro-magnetic activity of the speech-control muscles.

When we say words to ourselves, silently, or, read a book, we can actually feel the slight sensations of those words in our vocal muscles – all that is absent is the passage of air. Coordinated speech signals are relatively strong and relatively consistent.

We are “fed” hypnotic signals to force consistent “neutral” content (but of different character than prior to becoming test subjects) in dreams. These forced, neutral content (“bland” content) dreams occur every single night and may represent the experimenters’ efforts to have our experiences portray themselves in such dreams, in effect, mining our experiences.

www.raven1.net/elecvisn.htm confirms the ability of current unclassified technology to actually see what a living animal sees, electronically. It is therefore extremely likely that these forced dreams can be displayed on the experimenters’ screens in an adjacent apartment or adjacent house, (which are made obvious to the involuntary experimentee).

Implants: Implants can either receive instructions via radio signals, passing them to the brain. Or, can be interrogated via external radio signals to read brain activity at a distance. Since implants for beneficial purposes are actively being promoted by NIH, it is obvious they will not disappear any time soon.

Thermal Gun, Seizure Gun, and Magnetophosphene Gun: Evokes a visual response and is thought to be centered in the retina (as seen in the movies Goldeneye, Broken Arrow, Escape From LA, and Eraser). The popular video “Waco: The Big Lie Continues” shows video footage of three EM weapons being used during the confrontation.

From their brochure:

“Only your mind can hear. Your ears hear nothing but your mind hears and accepts the powerful suggestions.

You can safely play these tapes anywhere – in a car, while watching TV or listening to your favorite music, while working or even as silent sleep programming.”

Warning: Everyone within listening range of the tape will be programmed by the suggestions. To assure yourself that strong suggestions are recorded on the tape, take it to any Radio Shack store, play it on their stereo and read the output with a Radio Shack Sound Level Meter (Item 33-2050)

How To Use The Tapes: Increase the volume until it is just below any tape noise. If your stereo deck has treble and bass controls, you can boost the subliminal output by increasing the treble and decreasing the bass. The player then emits a strong but inaudible frequency – modulated 60 – 90 decibel signal that is received and demodulated by the human ear.

Technical Information: The Suggestions are delivered on a carrier frequency of 14,800 cps, via a low-distortion sine wave signal. This frequency is slightly above the audible hearing range but the frequency-modulated (FM) signal is still strongly impinging upon the diaphragm of the ear. The listener can expect his subconscious mind to accept the suggestions with repeated listening.

The Silent Subliminals is a new brain/mind technology developed by an aerospace engineer. This new technique has been licensed to Valley of the Sun Audio/Video for this incredible new tape series. Patent pending. Note: Because the frequency is beyond normal recording range, the tape cannot be duplicated:

“Acoustic Spotlight (Can Target One person in Crowd)”
Posted by F. Joseph Pompeii, MIT Media Lab

Usage: The Audio Spotlight can be used in two major ways: As directed audio, sound is directed at a specific listener or area, to provide a private or area specific listening space. As projected audio, sound is projected against a distant object, creating an audio image. This audio image is literally a projected loudspeaker – sound appears to come directly from the projection, just like light.

The Audio Spotlight consists of a thin, circular transducer array and a specially designed signal processor and amplifier. The transducer is about half an inch thick, nonmagnetic, and lightweight. The signal processor and amplifier are integrated into a unit about the same size as a traditional audio amplifier, and have similar power requirements.

Technology: Because it is impossible to generate extremely narrow beams of audible sound without extremely large loudspeaker arrays, we instead generate the sound indirectly, using the nonlinearity of the air to convert a narrow beam of ultrasound into a highly directive, audible beam of sound.

The device transmits a narrow beam of ultrasound (blue), which, due to the inherent nonlinearity of the air itself, distorts (changes shape) very slightly as it travels. This distortion creates, along with new ultrasonic frequencies, audible artifacts (green) that can be mathematically predicted, and therefore controlled.

By constructing the proper ultrasonic beam, this nonlinearity can be used to create, within the beam itself, an audible sound beam containing any sound desired. This is presently done in real-time using low cost circuitry, a specially designed amplifier, and transducers developed at MIT specifically for this project.

Hyperdirectivity: The directivity, or narrowness, of an acoustic wave generated by a circular transducer is proportional to the ratio of the diameter of the transducer to the wavelength of the sound. So a transducer much larger than the wavelength of the sound creates a very narrow beam.

Audible sound contains wavelengths reaching lengths of several feet, so a reasonably sized loudspeaker will always produce a very wide, non-directional source at lower frequencies. The Audio Spotlight, in contrast, outputs short, millimeter sized ultrasonic waves, which form a very narrow beam even in a small transducer, which in turn generates audible sound.

The nature of the nonlinear transformation also essentially eliminates side lobes in the resulting beam, and maintains relatively uniform directivity across the entire audible frequency range.

The figure above (from American Technologies Corp.) compares the directivity of the Audio Spotlight (yellow) to that of an ordinary loudspeaker (purple) at 400 Hz. Note that the directivity of the Audio Spotlight is only three degrees, compared to the essentially omni directional directivity of the loudspeaker.

In order to obtain such narrow directivity from a traditional loudspeaker system, one would need a loudspeaker array fifty meters across! A loudspeaker is like a light bulb, but the Audio Spotlight is like a laser.

History: The use of nonlinear interaction of high frequency sound to generate directive low frequency sound sources has been a well-researched subject in the field of underwater acoustics since the early 1960′s. Often misattributed to so-called “Tartini Tones,” the effect is more accurately described as a parametric array, a term introduced by Westervelt.

In the past several decades, many underwater sonar researchers have used the effect to generate directive low frequency sonar beams, detect underwater sound (parametric receiving array), and extend the bandwidth of underwater transducers.

The first published demonstration of an airborne parametric array was in 1975 by Bennett and Blackstock. Rather than using inaudible ultrasound, they instead used very intense, high frequency audible sound to produce simple difference tones. While their goal was not a practical audio reproduction device, they nonetheless effectively demonstrated that the parametric array would work in air in addition to underwater.

Life Assessment Detector System (LADS): The Life Assessment Detector System (LADS), a microwave Doppler movement measuring device, can detect human body surface motion, including heartbeat and respiration, at ranges up to 135 feet (41.15 meters).

The primary function of the LADS is to provide a reliable method by which medical and emergency personnel can locate personnel buried in building collapses or injured on the military battlefield. LADS can detect such signs of life as movement, heartbeat, or respiration.

Originally designed to detect heartbeat and respiration of military personnel wearing chemical-biological warfare protective overgarments, the LADS has been restructured, greatly increasing its operational range and providing a means for eliminating “nuisance alarms” which could mimic human life signs, such as fans, wind drafts, or swaying trees.

This is accomplished through neural network technology, which “trains” the system to recognize human motion and heartbeat/respiration functions. If these functions are not detected, the reasonable assumption is that there are no survivors. Operating under such an assumption, the rescue team can now proceed without fear of further loss of life, i.e., rescue and medical personnel and equipment can be deployed more effectively and efficiently.

The LADS consists of a sensor module, a neural network module, and a control/monitor module. The sensor module is an x-band (10 GHz) microwave transceiver with a nominal output power of 15 milliwatts, operating in the continuous wave (CW) mode. The neural network module device can store many complex patterns such as visual waveforms and speech templates, and can easily compare input patterns to previously “trained” or stored patterns.

The control/monitor module provides the LADS’ instrument controls, such as on-off switches, circuit breakers, and battery condition, as well as motion, heartbeat waveform, pulse strength, and pulse rate displays.

LADS provides life assessment capabilities for people who are:

+ Trapped in building rubble;
+ Battlefield casualties in a chemical/biological warfare environment;
+ Victims of airline, train, or automobile crashes;
+ Trapped in an avalanche or mudslide;
+ Trapped on a mountain ledge;
+ Trapped under a collapsed tent structure; or

Radar Flashlight: The National Institute of Justice (NIJ), through the Joint (Justice-Defense) Program Steering Group (JPSG), is sponsoring Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) in developing inexpensive, handheld, low-power radar that will enable law officers to detect individuals through interior building walls. It works by sensing the motion of an individual’s chest when they breathe.

GTRI is currently designing and refining the first prototype unit. A laboratory test area has been constructed consisting of a section of home siding and drywall, a wooden front door, and a section of brick and mortar.

It also demonstrated the ability to detect an individual through the laboratory’s cinder block walls. GTRI is working to combine the two parts of this device into a single unit. NIJ plans on demonstrating the Radar Flashlight with law enforcement agencies through its National Law Enforcement and Corrections Technology Center (NLECTC) (Southeast Regional Center) before the end of 1999.

Millivision Radar Millimeter-Wave Camera picks up both metallic and plastic concealed handguns. Between microwave and infrared lies the millimeter wave band. This little-heralded portion of the electromagnetic spectrum turns out to be perfect for “remote frisking.” Millitech Corp. has designed a camera to accomplish just that.

The idea calls for measuring the time delay and intensity of millimeter wave energy that radiates naturally. At millimeter wavelengths, people are good emitters, while metals are very poor. Dielectric objects, such as plastics, ceramics and powdered drugs, are somewhere in between. Clothing and building materials, such as wallboard, are virtually transparent.

Ground (or Home/Apt. Wall) Penetrating Radar: Patriot Scientific Corporation has developed radar technologies with a wide range of possible applications.

A pulse generator is used to drive the transmit antenna. The pulse is a positive spike going up to 100V then falling back to ground in one and a half nanoseconds corresponding to a pulse transmit frequency of 750 MHz.

The return signal is read by the receive antenna. At this point some simple analog processing is done and the signal is digitized at a resolution of 6 GHz, and sent to a PC. The PC correlates the data into a conventional waveform, does some processing, and then transmits the data over an Ethernet cable to a Pentium workstation (not shown).

The Pentium workstation is used to apply different digital filters, combine waveforms, and display the results. This system can be used to demonstrate detection of small targets buried in sand, people behind walls, and other targets.

Patriot has used its antenna system to demonstrate detection of objects as small as a coke buried in sand, through a wall. Even small targets disturb the wavefront of the pulse, producing reflections and modifying the field in measurable ways.

The key to Patriot’s Radar system is its ability to transmit and receive pulses barely longer then single cycles at the transmit frequency. The first waveform shown here is a pulse generated by an earlier Patriot Design, based on “off the shelf” antenna technology. The waveform on the bottom was produced and received by Patriot’s current Design.

The current Patriot antenna system produces a pulse at the desired frequency with little leading or trailing noise. The Patriot antenna system provides many advantages over pulse-based systems.

Patriot originally developed the impulse radar system to allow time domain processing in Patriot’s GPR systems. Because the impulse is extremely short (3 nanoseconds), the time to return can be used to gauge the distance traveled by the pulse.

Furthermore, the transmitter and receiver antennas are very directional, eliminating much of the multipath components of the return signal. The short pulses combined with the directional transmit and receive to provide us with a number of important advantages:

+ Very low average power during transmission
+ Low interference from other transmitters
+ Transmission invisible to conventional receivers
+ High bandwidth digital data transmission possible
+ Difficult detection by other impulse receiver

Interference with other sources and receivers is further reduced by using directional antennas. The antenna design shown is highly directional.

When penetrating the ground, we wish to eliminate as much of the multipath signal as possible. The directional antennas reduce the multipath signals detected to those that are relatively inline with the wave path, and eliminate much of the multipath signal that returns at odd angles.

Impulse radar uses low power inherently because the transmissions occur in pulses separated by periods of no transmission. The power of the pulses is offset by the dead time between the pulses. The average output of the current system is about 300 microwatts. The low average power of an impulse system effectively hides the transmissions from conventional receivers.

Interference can be further reduced in an impulse system by using random interval spacing. As long as the transmit and receive antennas are in sync, the period between pulses can be varied to prevent aliening with other continuous- or pulse-transmission systems that might be operating in the same locale.

Furthermore, if an impulse system is being used to transmit data, varying the intervals between pulses prevents other impulse systems from locking onto the signal. Patriot Scientifics’ current GPR system does not use random interval spacing.

Hearing For the Deaf: It was during these [Frey] studies that a profoundly important discovery was made: Deaf subjects often had the ability to hear radio frequency sound. The clinical criterion was that, if a given person could hear audio above 5 kHz [higher range of a piano] by bone or air conduction, then radio frequency sound could be heard as well.

This and related work has resulted in the manufacture of radio frequency type hearing aids for the deaf, one of which is made by Listening, Inc., of Arlington, Mass., and is known as the Neurophone Model GPF-1. It operates at 100 kHz (about five times the normal maximum hearing frequency) and employs crystal control.

These observations tie in with the fact that some individuals can detect radio programs through fillings in their teeth. This phenomenon was technically verified by interposing shields between respective people who exhibited this effect and the modulated radio frequency sources.

When the lower half of the head was covered, including the maxillary dental area, the radio frequency sound was perceived. The sound ceased on covering the top half of the head. While the mechanism responsible for this phenomenon is only imperfectly understood, it can be assumed to be the result of DIRECT cortical stimulation.

In other words, even when the sound seems to be coming from the teeth, it is actually being directly received and interpreted in the brain, not the teeth.

Some Important Historical Developments
previous / (top)

Brain-Wave Detection: Some 40-odd years ago, university professor F. Cazzamalli started publishing papers on the subject of brain-wave detection [using radio signals] and implied that he had detected radiations from the mind.

He placed his subjects in a shielded room (or Faraday cage), emanated VHF radio waves through their heads, and claimed to have recorded “beat frequencies” obtained with an untuned receiver consisting of a galena crystal or diode tube, a fixed capacitor, an antenna, and a sensitive light beam galvanometer. A “galvanometer” is a voltmeter; light beam types show up in physics labs and are one of the most sensitive types of voltmeter.

The trouble is that Cazzamalli never mentioned transmitter power in his somewhat unprofessional papers. His oscillograms meant to show variations of the “beat” when his subjects were emotionally aroused or engaged in creative tasks when they were in the Faraday cage. “Beat” as used by Cazzamalli refers to EEG-frequency, i.e., ELF, traces.

Later he told an astounded world that his subjects would hallucinate when under the influence of his “oscillatori telegrafica,” its frequency being around 300 MHz at the time. Aviation radios are in this range.

Tom Jaski, a noted science writer and engineer duplicated some of Cazzamalli’s work with a modern low-power oscillator that was swept from 300 MHz to 600 MHz. Cell phones start at over 900 MHz.

His subjects could not see the dial. They were told to sound off as soon as they felt something unusual. At a certain frequency range – varying between 380 MHz and 500 MHz – the subjects repeatedly indicated points with exact accuracy in as many as 14 out of 15 trials. At these “individual” frequencies, the same subjects announced having experienced pulsing sensations in the brain, ringing in the ears, and an odd desire to bite the experimenters.

The oscillator’s output power was only a few milliwatts, while the oscillator itself was located several feet away from the subjects. Any experimenters out there want to try this? Milliwatts are quite safe for short-term experiments. Kids’ walkie-talkies are 50 to 100 milliwatts, for example.

LIDA Machine: 1960 Soviet device that bombards brains with low-frequency radio waves. Now with Dr. Ross Adey, Chief of Research, Veterans Hospital, Loma Linda, CA.

Low frequency square wave modulation of a radio frequency field. It was developed by L. Rabichev and his colleagues in Soviet Armenia, for “the treatment of neuropsychic and somatic disorders, such as neuroses, psychoses, insomnia, hypertension, stammering, bronchial asthma, and asthenic and reactive disturbances.” (U.S. Patent # 3,773,049)

The radio frequency field has a nominal carrier frequency of 40 MHz and a maximum output of approximately 40 watts. The E-field is applied to the patient on the side of neck through two disc electrodes approximately 10 cm in diameter. The electrodes are located at a distance of 2 to 4 cm from the skin.

The radio signal appears to be the primary cause of the sleep/trance effect. Optimal repetition frequencies are said to lie in the range from 40 to 80 pulses per minute.

Voice to Skull, 1974: The demonstration of sonic transduction of microwave energy by materials lacking in water LESSENS the likelihood that a thermo hydraulic principle is operating in human perception of the energy. Nonetheless, some form of thermo acoustic transduction probably underlies perception. If so, it is clear that simple heating is NOT a sufficient basis for the Frey effect; the requirement for pulsing of radiations appears to implicate a thermodynamic principle.

Frey and Messenger (1973) and Guy, Chou, Lin, and Christensen (1975) confirmed that a microwave pulse with a slow rise time is ineffective in producing an auditory response; only if the rise time is SHORT, resulting in effect in a square wave with respect to the leading edge of the envelope of radiated radio-frequency energy, does the auditory response occur.

Thus the rate of change (the first derivative) of the waveform of the pulse is a CRITICAL factor in perception. Given a thermodynamic interpretation, it would follow that information can be encoded in the energy and “communicated” to the “listener”.

Communication has in fact been demonstrated. A. Guy, a skilled telegrapher, arranged for his father, a retired railroad telegrapher, to operate a key, each closure and opening of which resulted in a pulse of microwave energy. By directing the radiations at his own head, complex messages via the Continental Morse Code were readily received by Guy.

Sharp and Grove found that appropriate modulation of microwave energy can result in “wireless” and “receiverless” communication of SPEECH. They recorded by voice on tape each of the single-syllable words for digits between 1 and 10. The electrical sine-wave analogs of each word were then processed so that each time a sine wave crossed ZERO REFERENCE IN THE NEGATIVE DIRECTION, a brief pulse of microwave energy was triggered.

This is, in effect, is a form of what is called pulse-RATE modulation. By radiating themselves with these “voice modulated” microwaves, Sharp and Grove were READILY able to hear, identify, and distinguish among the 9 words. Persons with artificial larynxes not unlike those emitted the sounds heard.

Communication of more complex words and of sentences was not attempted because the averaged densities of energy required to transmit longer messages would approach the current 10 milliwatts per square centimeter limit of safe exposure.

The capability of communicating directly with a human being by “receiverless radio” has obvious potentialities both within and without the clinic. But the hotly debated and unresolved question of how much microwave radiation to which a human being can safely be exposed will probably forestall applications within the near future.

HAARP: HAARP (High Frequency Active Auroral Research Project), by virtue of its far-reaching impact on the environment to be a global concern and calls for its legal, ecological and ethical implications to be examined by an international independent body before any further research and testing, regrets the repeated refusal of the United States Administration to send anyone in person to give evidence to the public hearing or any subsequent meeting to be held by its competent committee into the environmental and public risks connected with the HAARP programmed currently being funded in Alaska.

One of HAARP’s potential uses is a communications system. The military officially acknowledges two communications-related applications:

(1) to replace the existing Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) submarine communications system now operating in Michigan and Wisconsin;

(2) to provide a way to wipe out communications over an extremely large area, while keeping the military’s own communications system working.

As we have seen, the mind-control subliminal messages are carried on radio-frequency broadcasts. The HAARP facility could be used to broadcast global mind-control messages, or such messages could simply be inserted into existing systems.

Dr. Igor Smirnov, of the Institute of Psycho-correction in Moscow, says in regard to this technology: “It is easily conceivable that some Russian ‘Satan’, or let’s say Iranian [or any other 'Satan'], as long as he owns the appropriate means and finances, can inject himself [intrude] into every conceivable computer network, into every conceivable radio or television broadcast, with relative technological ease, even without disconnecting cables.

Recent Media on HAARP

HAARP TRANSMITTER NOW RUNNING AT FULL POWER!!
Can be Easily Heard Around the World on Short-wave Radio.
Has Space War Begun?
-BJNews by Marshall Smith

“As of this morning, Saturday Feb 17, 2001, HAARP began doing testing with greatly increased FULL power. The transmitter can now be heard all day long on 3.39 MHz. Very early this morning about 3 AM, HAARP could be heard at its “old” normal signal strength. About 4 AM the signal changed in both its pulse timing and inter-pulse spacing. At 4:30 AM the signal strength suddenly increased tremendously.

“Unlike previous mornings, there was no regular F-layer daytime fade out when the sun rose here in California about 6:45 AM. I continued to monitor during the daylight. I have never heard the HAARP signal during the daytime before. The sun now rises in Gakona Alaska about 10 AM PST. The received signal again increased from about S5 to S9 at 10:05 AM. With sunlight at both the transmitter and receiver there is no F-layer skip to bend the powerful signal around the planet. This means this is an extremely powerful direct ground wave signal. And I’m only receiving the leakage off the side lobes of the antenna array.

“The full HAARP design power is supposed to be about 350 Megawatts. But that is only the published spec, not necessarily what is done in practice (as in those CB’rs running illegal 1KWatt linear amplifiers). There is a planned Air Force “Star Wars” test with two vehicles, one from California and the other in the south Pacific, similar to last summer’s failed test. The tentative published launch is set for late March or April. I will monitor HAARP to confirm it is running full power during the launch, as it was last summer.

“Last summer’s “failure” is exactly what a HAARP device is supposed to do; destroy the electronic controls of a vehicle so the second stage cannot separate from the booster. A very cheap, simple way to knock down missiles launched from anywhere on the planet. It also can destroy military satellites in low orbit. Maybe that’s why the Russians and Chinese have been complaining in the last several weeks about Bush’s intention to “build” the star wars system. Maybe they’ve been losing some of their “secret hardware.” But of course, they won’t say that in public.

“Its now 11 AM PST, on Saturday the 17th, and the signal is blasting in with the powerful pre-pulse tone around S+20 and the main signal about S9. The signal varies 3 to 6 db over a series of several pulses. Since this is not due to F-layer skip fading, I must assume they are slewing the beam of the antenna in various directions, and thus changing the amount of the side lobes in this direction. This must be a test of a simulated space warfare game with multiple targets. Rapid slewing of the antenna in just a matter of a minute or two is not useful for submarine communication, nor for their stated purpose of doing “ionospheric research.”

“To show the HAARP signal is abnormally large, at this time, the 80-meter band is silent and WWV at 5 MHz cannot be heard, as would be expected during the daytime. WWV at 10 MHz is barely heard but does not even register on the S meter. Tuning back to 3.39 MHz, the S meter jumps off the top of the scale. Even the extremely powerful Russian “woodpecker” transmitters during the cold war never did that, and they were aimed along the ground not out into space. I have no way to estimate how many Gigawatts that represents.

“It may be only coincidence but just several days ago, Russia announced it would be conducting a massive space war game, including the launch of numerous missiles, from both ground sites and submarines. Of course this is only a coincidence. You Think. For more information about HAARP, how the transmitter works and to hear what the transmitter sounds like, go back to the Brother Jonathan Gazette front page article about the HAARP facility and how it is used in space warfare.

“I should point out in 1983 a number of Air Force ER-135 electronic warfare planes were shot down in the Sea of Japan. They were apparently making a covert entry into soviet airspace to test the latest Russian technology. What the Air Force did not know then was the Soviets had developed a stealth fighter so the 135′s never saw the Russians coming and all 5 of the US e-warfare planes were shot down. To cover this “covert” event, the US shot down a 747, a plane similar to the 135′s (or modified Boeing 707′s whose parts are very similar to a 747) so if plane parts are found in the Sea of Japan they are claimed to be the 747. The 747 may, in fact, have played a part in the covert event. This is the supposed “Russian” shoot down of Korean Airlines Flight 007, on Sept 1, 1983. I remember the event well, since it is my son’s b-day.

“The proof of a covert event with stealth Russian fighters shooting down 5 Air Force ER- 135′s is documented in R.W. Johnson’s book, SHOOTDOWN, published in 1986. The most convincing evidence is the strange fact that 27 US active duty electronic warfare officers somehow end up on the passenger list among the dead on the civilian KAL Flight 007 going to Korea. I only point this out to show how high tech secret warfare between Russia and the US may result in deaths and the destruction of hardware, and yet is never reported to the public.

“The US did not announce and demonstrate deployment of its own stealth fighters until the Gulf War in ’90-91, seven years later. In 1991, three events occurred, (1) the US demonstrates stealth fighter-bombers which can travel anywhere in the world without detection, (2) the announcement of the construction of HAARP which would neutralize all soviet missiles coming over the pole, and (3) the collapse of the Soviet Union. To see these as unrelated events is to miss the point of history.

“At the present time, both the Russian’s and Chinese have demonstrated their ability and inclination to engage in warfare, especially space warfare. It would thus seem clear the “coincidence” of the massive Russian war games and the sudden increase in the output of HAARP in a warfare mode, would indicate that on this Presidents Day Weekend 2001, warfare is actually occurring, not just games. Just as in 1985, when planes were destroyed and US airmen died, the story was completely covered up, but it nonetheless had great implications on the relations between the governments of the world.

“There are, of course, no airmen on the Russian missiles, nor the Chinese and Russian satellites in orbit. This is the new hi-tech robotic remote control warfare of outer space. But, the “war games” are real, nonetheless. The massive increase in the output of HAARP, under the control of the Air Force’s Space Vehicles Command which operates HAARP and has the mission of engaging in space warfare, would indicate of a lot of expensive space hardware is now biting the dust. The Russians will claim their exercise was a “success.” The Chinese who have just lost their “eyes in orbit” will say nothing. And the US will claim, as usual, “What, who me? HAARP hasn’t been in operation since October ’99.” But you can listen for yourself on any short-wave receiver by tuning to 3.390 MHz. Good Listening.”

Some Concluding Remarks
previous / (top)

The discovery of “Synthetic Telepathy,” as an EM way to communicate information directly onto the brain has changed everything. And, with related discoveries on membrane responses to specific frequency bands, and their amplification, has led to some very serious questions. Where are these technologies really leading man?

Certainly not toward a better way of living…. We see little application in their uses in medicine. In fact, most aspects have remained classified, and are still being used (historically) for military applications and uses. When you consider our ability to clone emotions, and the possible uses of HAARP, there is NO QUESTION on the possibility of its use for the complete mind control of humanity.

We can do it now. We have the theory. We have the technology. Why would it not be done? And then, by whom? Dr. Robert O. Becker, twice-nominated for the Noble prize for his health work in bio-electromagnetism, was more explicit in his concern over illicit government activity. He wrote of “obvious application in covert operations designed to drive a target crazy with voices.”

What is frightening is that words, transmitted via low-density microwaves or radio frequencies, or by other covert methods, might be used to create influence. For instance, according to a 1984 U.S. House of Representatives report, a large number of stores throughout the country use high frequency transmitted words (above the range of human hearing) to discourage shoplifting. Stealing is reduced by as much as 80 percent in some cases.

With frequencies of electromagnetic radiation able to be converted into tight beams, it is worth considering the possibility that low-orbiting satellites could transmit such signals directly to a chosen person. Such a capability would have obvious strategic value.

What if some group or organization wanted to conduct terrorist activities that would strike right into the heart of their intended victims? What better way than to create killers from the most ordinary of citizens? Worse yet would be to cause children to unexpectedly lash out and murder those around them.

It is apparent that the technology exists to elicit such behavior using waves of electromagnetic energy sent directly into the brain.

“ELF” frequencies, as we know now, are not the most invasive weapons-capable frequencies. Doses of ELF can act as either sedatives or stimulants, entraining the target’s EEG as with the Russian LIDA machine. Weapons that can transmit hypnotic commands silently and untraceably, over distance and through walls, can cause a far wider spectrum of effects.

In other words, don’t assume that “ELF” is the only form of electromagnetic signal which can do damage. And, if you might wonder what that “buzzing” sound you sense behind you ear might be? It is HAARP. You can actually hear it when they have it “on.”

The obvious next important discussion should be around the changing Shuman Resonance, and its affects and importance to biological functions and activities. There is no question that the Shuman Resonance is changing toward the higher frequencies associated with our “conscious states” of mind… Why is that?

Electromagnetic (EM) weapons are of recent invention. They utilize the various frequencies of the electromagnetic spectrum to disable or kill the target. Psychotronic weapons are those EM weapons that interact with the nervous system of the target.

Synergetic Qabala

THE DODECAHEDRAL UNIVERSE and the Qabalistic Tree of Life

by Iona Miller and Richard Alan Miller, O.A.K.

“An analysis of astronomical data suggests not only that the universe is finite, but also that it has a specific, rather rigid topology (dodecahedral sphere). If confirmed, this is a major discovery about the nature of the universe.”

George F.R. Ellis, “The Shape of the Universe,

Nature, Vol 425, October 9, 2003

Plato informs us in his Republic: “Geometry rightly treated is the knowledge of the Eternal,” and he is reported by Plutarch to have said that “God is always geometrizing.” Nor was the conception of the Universe in the form of the Dodecahedron unknown to Plato, for in his Timaeus this idea is clearly indicated.

Frater Achad, Anatomy of the Body of God

Sacred Geometries

Imagine that hundreds or even thousands of years ago, mystics anticipated the astounding findings of modern science by looking deeply within themselves to plumb the mysteries of the universe. The ancient doctrine of Kabbalah says that its teachings about the nature of creation were given to Abraham in the form of wisdom and sacred geometries by an angel of God. Ten spheres or subtle dimensions of existence emanated in a geometrical pattern from the veils of negative existence, ranging from archetypal Kether through the Causal and Astral levels to Malkuth, the physical plane. Current research may bear out some kabbalistic assertions about the cosmos.

Recent discoveries by French cosmologists have led them to believe that the universe is finite with a regular dodecahedral or soccer-ball shape, which is omnitriangulated and omnisymmetrical with 20 vertices. This contrasts markedly with the flat, infinite “Standard Model”.

In the 1920′s, Hermetic magician Charles Stansfield Jones, known as Frater Achad, experimented with 3-D projections of the kabbalistic Tree of Life. The Tree of Life diagram is a key provided initiates to unlock the more comprehensive geometry of creation. When he modelled the Tree as emanating from a single point in six directions, he found the projections culminated in a dodecahedron.

Later, kabbalist Leonora Leet (1999) described the regular dodecahedron as the geometric symbol of the Earth and also that of “Perfected Malkuth”, or the realm of matter in general. Buckminster Fuller (1975) includes this ancient Platonic solid, the dodecahedron, among the energetic tetrahedral topological relationships described in Synergetics I and II. The chords of the five spherical geometrical integrities interact energetically, pulsating through their synergetic transforms. With the dodecahedron as its basis, a geometric nest is formed which turns information into coherent structure.

Synergetics, Fuller and Applewhite

This is nature’s own way of assembly which seems to be reflected from the smallest to the largest systems, echoing the qabalistic axiom, “As Above; So Below.” This axiom is also reflected in the Holographic Concept of Reality (R. A. Miller, Webb, Dickson; 1973-75) and the fractal reiterations (self-similarity regardless of scale) found in Chaos Theory and Complexity (I. Miller, 1993a).

There is a fundamental reality which is an invisible flux that is not comprised of parts, but an inseparable interconnectedness. In this dynamic model, there are no “things,” only energetic events. The holoflux includes the ultimately flowing nature of what is, and also of that which forms therein. Patterns of interference (light waves) create matter and energy as we perceive them. This domain is not transcendental to matter but underlies it as a coherent unity.

Through the seemingly chaotic process of emergence, order appears spontaneously or instantaneously within a system. Chaos is creative at its complex “edge.” Chaos theory tells us that new kinds of laws come into play when the level of complexity of a system increases.

Complex feedback loops from subsystems constitute integration. Creation is instantaneous. The flow of energy washes life and consciousness into the world. Or, in the kabbalistic vision, consciousness washes energy and life into the world. As the kabbabalists say, “God is a verb.” Chaos is nature’s guide, the matrix of formation, cosmic “zero,” as Fuller called it. Thus, something emerges from nothing.

Our notions about ourselves and the nature of the world about us, our worldviews, are filtered through our prejudices about “the way things work”. This is particularly true when we look at complex dynamic systems. The ultimate complex dynamic system is, of course, the Universe. And whatever it is, we are that—of the same essence. Arguably, consciousness is an intrinsic emergent property.

Our scientific theories are simply state-of-the-art models which often conflict with one another, such as the irreconcilability between relativity, quantum mechanics and string theory. Not all theories prove to accurately describe reality. The universe has always been space-time as well as matter-energy.

Relativity eliminated the Newtonian illusion of absolute space and time, uniting them as one in the fabric of space-time. There is no objective point of observation in the universe. In fact, quantum theory tells us there are no “points” at all.

Counter-intuitive quantum mechanics introduced the Uncertainty Principle, mandating participation rather than observation. It shows us that at the smallest level we can only make statistical predictions about how nature will manifest from waves of probability. And the non-linear equations of chaos theory imply dynamic processes are actually deterministic though unpredictable.

While providing a unified vision, the holographic concept doesn’t provide equations to unite all the forces of nature. Yet it reminds us of the holistic perspective that each part contains the whole, even though at a lower level of resolution. Physics demands experimentation while astrophysics relies largely on ever-sharper observation to determine the nature of our existence.

All these disciplines interrelate in certain specialty fields such as quantum cosmology, consciousness studies, transpersonal psychology, and metaphysics – that which by its very nature emerges from a domain beyond the physical, the realm of Source.

Our models still cannot completely reconcile the physics of the very small and the very large. Untestable theories which make no predictions are essentially philosophy rather than good science. Conversely, a strong argument can also be made that scientific ‘materialism’ is essentially a philosophy.

String theory, for example, remains a philosophy or conceptual paradigm, since no experiments can yet be devised to prove its applicability. Nor are they likely to be in the foreseeable future. It alleges that the essence of all manifest reality is vibrating strings, tiny one dimensional loops (rather than the quarks of quantum mechanics). These infinitesimal strings are the building blocks of matter.

Some kinds of string theory have open strings; some have closed circles. Some have one kind of vibration while others called heterotic have different kinds of vibrations moving in opposite directions.

Several of the superstring theories and one supergravity theory all fit into a kind of ecosystem called M-theory (for matrix or magic, take your pick), which is an alternative description of the same phenomena. The string part is natural because a point particle has an infinite energy singularity whereas a tiny string isn’t a point of energy but rather a base vibration.

All these theories are supersymmetric in 10 or so dimensions, meaning each force-carrying boson is paired with a matter-forming fermion but our particles are nn-symmetric in 4 dimensions. Our fermions, like the neutrino, electron, and proton don’t pair up in any kind of ‘arranged marriage’ with the photon or graviton or any other force particle.

Schwarz calls the Second String Revolution the finding that the formerly competing versions of string theory are actually variations on a theme, and the theme is M-theory. A nagging problem, already recognized in the work of Kaluza and Klein, has been: What of these extra dimensions? Where are they? Why do we never see them? To get from one to the other requires compactifying the 6 or so extra dimensions. There are millions of ways of doing this and one or two might produce the odd array of particles we find. So the theories aren’t just philosophy but they might as well be unless we can figure out which one if any really coincides with nature. Strings are orders of magnitude smaller than atoms, yet condition their various subatomic manifestations, such as quarks, protons, neutrons and electrons. Observed particle properties are a reflection of the various ways a string can vibrate.

Each preferred pattern of resonant vibration appears as a particle determined by the oscillatory pattern (Greene, 1999). This pervasive resonance phenomenon is literally the Music of the Spheres of ancient philosophy. A string field includes the number of possible configurations of a string in space. It is related to a new kind of geometry in an enormous extension of the idea of space. It is defined by all the possible configurations of a string. Strings act like point particles. However, a stringlike particle should be thought of as a “wavelike” disturbance in that huge space, just as a graviton is a wave in ordinary space. The interference of these wavelike disturbances could, indeed, be the holographic domain. One version of string theory posits our four manifest dimensions (3-D + time) are undergird by 6 subtle enfolded dimensions curled up unobservably in space-time, according to the mathematics. This 10-dimension theory reminds of the qabalistic notion of 10 spheres, with only the lower four being manifest while the other six are more fundamental emanations.

String theory, because of the inelegance of its multiple solutions is being superceded by Mtheory or Membranes, with branes or p-branes as fundamental phenomena. M-theory relies on supersymmetry. This supersymmetry transforms the coordinates of space-time so the laws of physics become the same for all observers, implying gravity.

In M-theory, everything may arise from strings, bubbles and sheets in higher dimensions of space-time. Membranes take the shape of them all. M-theory has 11 dimensions so it is more fundamental perhaps than strings. Gravity is the geometry of space-time. “Matrix” theory is based on an infinite number of zero-branes (particles). Their coordinates are not ordinary numbers but matrices, making space-time a fuzzy concept. A testable holistic model is the Holy Grail of science, a “theory of everything”, or T.O.E. uniting all the forces of nature, including gravity.

In principle it would explain everything from the macroscopic Big Bang to the most elusive microscopic phenomena. Yet it has remained elusive. However, science is only roughly 200 years old and growing exponentially.

Some philosophies, on the other hand, such as Kabbalah claim up to a 4,000 year lineage. The Jewish kabbalists had a holistic theory of everything including mankind’s relationship to cosmos depicted in their Tree of Life diagram. It is a holographic encyclopedia of phenomenology.

It is a graphic display of the unity of micro- and macrocosm, of how man and universe

interpenetrate and reflect one another. Does our psychobiology somehow condition or reflect our philosophies? Reality seems to depend on how you look at it. Were the ancient mystics prescient? Were they somehow able to intuitively perceive the true nature of the cosmos by looking into themselves?

Intuition is a non-linear informational source which creates “quantum leaps” in our awareness. But mystics have also always spoken of the illusory nature of consensus reality. However, without the matrix of theory, data flies by incomprehensibly, its deeper meaning lost. If so, how does what the ancients discovered relate to current scientific findings? Can we know the nature of the universe if we do not even know ourselves?

The ancient philosophers corresponded the dodecahedron with the fifth element, Ether, or

the Universe. We can examine its symbolic and phenomenological manifestations at the macro and micro levels in both science and metaphysics.

The Shape of the Universe “An analysis of astronomical data suggests not only that the universe is finite, but also that it has a specific, rather rigid topology (dodecahedral sphere). If confirmed, this is a major discovery about the nature of the universe.”

George F. R. Ellis, “The Shape of the Universe,”

Nature, Vol 425, October 9, 2003

In early October of 2003, a team of French astrophysicists announced that rather than flat and endless, the cosmos is shaped like a soccer ball, with curved pentagonal-shaped panels. Their discovery comes from mapping the allpervading microwave radiation released during the Big Bang over 13 billion years ago.

Fluctuations in temperature, (like waves in the ocean), at the extreme ranges of the radiation do not match the Standard Model. There are no large waves which would be expected in an infinite universe. Data showing fluctuating density is arguably consistent with the cosmos being a Poincare dodecahedral space. This finite spherical solid universe would be contained by 12 curved pentagons.

Independent mathematician, Jeffrey Weeks of New York points out,“A journey of 60 billion light years across a dodecahedral Universe would bring you right back to Earth. Like a circumnavigation of the globe, it would be a seamless ride: there would be no obvious point at which one ‘re-entered’ the Universe.”

“The most distant objects would be visible in opposite directions, although they would be seen at different ages. Trying to spot the same galaxy in two different places “would be like trying to recognize the same person viewed at age 50 face-on, and at the age of 7 from the top of their head, in a crowd of billions.”

Synergetics and the Dodecahedron

“All that is physical is energetic. All that is metaphysical is synergetic.” (Fuller, 1979, p. 68)

According to most creation stories, out of primal Nothingness, the All or Everything emerges or emanates. Paradoxically, everything seems to come from nothing. How does nothing become something? Energy “crystallizes” into matter in the womb of empty space, a dynamic Void. Mass is simply a form of energy. This process is structured by an underlying, invisible, geometrical lattice. Actually, it is pre-geometric. Because it has no true physical existence, it is metaphysical (beyond physics).

This threshold of matter, where nothing becomes something, is of great philosophical interest. It bears on the nature of reality from the micro to macro level, and is the basis of atomic structure and quantum cosmology, and life itself.

If we look at the structural matrix of the universe, atoms, or life we see the same

equilibriating geometrical architecture repeating over and over. The human body shares the same structural laws as Cosmos. This echoes the axiom “As Above; So Below.”

Tensegrity Structual Matrix According to the fundamental laws of physics as

described by Ian Stewart (1998), nature likes to conserve, or minimize, the energy it has to expend in order to do its work. The original proponent of this view was R.Buckminster Fuller (with E.J. Applewhite), who expressed it mathematically and philosophically in his tour de force, Synergetics: Explorations in the Geometry of Thinking (1975) and Synergetics II (1979).

Fuller discovered Nature’s own rules of assembly. His vision was founded on the geometry of closest-packed spheres, which can be found in the nuclei of all atoms. In fact, there is much to link the nature of Fuller’s primary modules, the self-assembling tetrahedron and the Vector Equilibrium Matrix to the virtual vacuum or quantum foam, as well as to the dodecahedron.

Nature’s own economy and minimalism is the reason why: (a) “the surface of smallest area that encloses a given volume is a sphere”; (b) “Without some constraint, the area of minimal surface would be zero”; and, © “Minimal surface” is a surface whose area is the smallest possible, subject to the following constraints: the shape’s surface must contain some given volume, and its boundary should lie on some given surface or curve, or both (p. 104).

Thus it can be said that in its material form, energy seeks to equilibrate itself into a perfectly energy-efficient, completely energy-balanced shape of a sphere. Its underlying “assimilation and accommodation” dynamics therefore all seem subsequent to this basic geometrically equilibrative law of energy conservation. Therefore, the distinctive shapes which virtual/actual particle/energy wave patterns reciprocally evoke depends upon their underlying energy-redistribution dynamics.

In a notable Scientific American article (1/1998), Donald E. Ingber revitalizes the current of Synergetics by identifying the prominence of tensegrity in geometric shapes (including the dodecahedron) in “The Architecture of Life.” He relates it to complexity (chaos theory) at macro and micro levels, stating in his introduction:

Life is the ultimate example of complexity at work. An oganism…develops through

an incredibly complex series of interactions involving a vast number of

different components…[which] are themselves made up of smaller molecular

components, which independently exhibit their own dynamic behavior…Yet, when

they are combined into some larger

functioning unit—such as a cell or tissue—utterly new and unpredictable properties

emerge, including the ability to move, to change shape and to grow….That nature

applies common assembly rules is implied by the recurrence—at scales from the

molecular to the macroscopic—of certain patterns, such as spirals, pentagons and

triangulated forms…After all, [everything is] made of the same building blocks:

atoms of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and phosphorus. The only

difference is how the atoms are arranged in three-dimensional space (p. 48).

Ingber goes on from there to describe this emergent phenomenon as a process of “selfassembly” (p. 48) into increasingly complex hierarchies of life forms. He states his observation that nearly everything in our world, including the human body, is constructed using a form of architecture known as tensegrity (p. 48). He explains, “The term refers to a system that stabilizes itself mechanically because of the way in which tensional and compressive forces are distributed and balanced within the structure” (pp. 48-49).

The key point here seems to be that the stability (or resilience) of a tensegrity structure comes not from the strength of its individual member-parts, but from the way that its mechanical stresses are balanced and distributed across all of the parts of the whole.

Ingber describes two categories of tensegrity structures, the first of which is made up entirely of “rigid struts,” each of which is able to bear either tension or compression, and the second of which is composed of “prestressed” structures which bear either tension or compression even before being subjected to external forces.

“The compression-bearing rigid struts function to stretch, or tense, the flexible tension-bearing members, or “cables,” while the tension-bearing cables, in turn, compress the struts. Thus, these “counteracting forces, which equilibrate throughout the structure, are what enable it to stabilize itself” (p. 49).

A closer look at some of the other interesting and relevant features of tensegrity shows that:

(a) It is the constructive, architecturally equilibrative use of gravity which gives most structures their stability by taking advantage of its continuous compression forces;

(b) Tension-bearers “map-out” the shortest path between adjacent members,

resulting ideally in highly resilient geodesic-like shapes;

© Tensional forces, in turn, follow these accommodative shortest routes between points so that their tensional stresses become adaptively assimilated as new functions of the structure’s resilient, ever equilibrating form (Ingber, p. 49-50).

When studying the functions of tensegrity structures involved in the make-up of cells, Ingber found that when attached to a flexible substrate material, cells contract and become more spherical, thereby “puckering” the material beneath them. So it seems that the tensegrity dynamics of any given structure, even a living one, can have a significant rippling effect on the dynamics of its surrounding neighbors, much like mass distorts or curves space at the macro level More significantly, it was seen that pushing down on a tensegrity structure forces it into what appears to be a flattened, disordered state. But as soon as the pressure is removed from it, “the energy stored in its tensed filaments causes the [structure] to spring back to its original, roughly spherical shape” (p. 50). This demonstrates that when tension and compression ratios are evenly distributed across a structure’s member-parts, the structure will resiliently rebound from traumatic stressors (Miller, 2002).

As shown above, in cellular tensegrity structures all the way up to and including the human body, all interconnected structural elements rearrange themselves as needed in response to local stressors. So, in effect, the body varies the stiffness or flexibility of its bones, joints, tendons, and muscles in response to demands made upon it.

Also, cellular structures stiffen or relax their various cytoskeletal parts through contraction and extension of their minute microfilaments, microtubules, and intermediate filaments in response to its structural integrity needs. This is important because some research shows this bears directly on our own consciousness, (Miller,

2002, Part IV).

Furthermore, molecules too rearrange their shapes in order to communicate their reactions to the electro-chemical dynamics which influence their structural integrity. Thus, all levels of the human body’s structure are simultaneously and continuously increasing their tensegrity states as much as possible.

Reciprocal limitations set the corresponding state of the “structural matrix” to which and within which they are attached. Elsewhere in science, the notion of reciprocal limitations is referred to as “rein theory.”Geometric Philosophy

We can expect these same tensegrity principles to apply at the cosmic level, astrophysics. Actually, materialism (a natural philosophy) is a theory of metaphysics. It is metaphysical thinking to consider static matter as a primary reality. In fact, any attempt to describe reality is metaphysical speculation. In its dynamic form matter cannot be separated from energy.

Energy is a property of matter, which can be considered potential energy. The mystic believes in matter, but believes it is more than science has yet discovered. Even before Western science began, mystics believed that mind, consciousness, or spirit is a property of matter. It hardly matters, philosophically, if you consider it as manifesting force or manifesting spirit. The nature of reality is that matter-energy must be taken together .The theory of relativity conceives of this single substance as a distortion or curving of the structure of space-time.

Physicist Ian Barbour writes that, “…in quantum theory, separate particles seem to be temporary and partial manifestations of a shifting pattern of waves that combine at one point, dissolve again, and recombine elsewhere; a particle begins to

look like a local outcropping of a continuous substratum of vibrational energy.” That vibrational energy is governed by the laws of probability.

But what subtle forces underlie matter-energy and space-time? All form and power are latent within the void. The Heart Sutra tells us that, “Form is not other than Void, Void is not other than Form.” This implies that our human form is not other than void, and biophysics shows this to be true.

Our physical makeup is largely emptiness. If we conceive of humans as being most fundamentally electromagnetic entities, instead of chemical beings, we can imagine our finer existence as wave-fronts in space. Our microcosmic personal “space” is not utterly empty, but cannot be conceived apart from our matter exhibiting itself in particular ways, i.e. as “waves.”

Yet, the void state, or primal matrix, is “cosmic zero,” and proportionately our most fundamental reality. It is part of the surrealistic quantum realm. It lies within us all, for the relative space between our atoms is astronomical. This is the ground state of existence which mystics seek in their meditation, moving beyond mind and maya. It is that state of consciousness where outer perceptions cease, and consciousness is free to simply be.

Throughout the centuries, various geometrical forms have been revered as expressions or metaphors of higher spiritual truths. These sacred forms and symbols are a natural part of the collective consciousness which emerges in every generation.

We project them outwardly from within our psyche because they are so fundamental to our existence. That apprehension is intuitive. Certain typical forms recur in meditation and ceremonial practice, worldwide.

When something emerges from nothing, it does so via non-Euclidean geometry, coming to occupy space/time. Einstein used non-Euclidean geometry to explain the relativity of time and curved space as the geometry that is produced by matter or matter by geometry.

The perception of the transcendental or metaphysical aspects of geometry is intuitive. There are examples of philosophical geometry or geometrical philosophy from around the world. These traditions are found in India , China , Southeast Asia , Egypt , Europe, and Great Britain , to name a few. It is expressed in monuments, tombs, temples, church and mosque construction, astrology, the arts, mandalas, yantras, stupas, magical circles and symbols, etc.

Plato, Archimedes, and the Pythagoreans based much of their philosophical speculation around the nature of geometrical form, suggesting that mathematics and structural forms had ultimate status.

Pythagoras considered the geometrical nature of the dodecahedron so secret he kept it from the uninitiated. He realized the dodecahedron is related to PHI, the Golden Mean proportion.

Their relationship is fractal, meaning selfreiterating at all levels, disclosing a profound interrelationship. The dodecahedron, nested within an icosahedron, nested within yet another dodecahedron, exemplifies Golden Mean ratios. Ratios established can be used to infinitely extend the figure to any scale, small or large. A dodecahedron can be constructed by taking three golden rectangles and assembling them at 90 degree angles. The figure formed is a 3D shape with twelves corners which are also the twelve centers of each of the twelve pentagons that form the faces of the dodcahedron.

Our modern science has never forsaken the tradition of seeking the understanding of forms that reveal beauty, shape and meaning in physical reality. Euclidean geometry describes the nature of the human scale, but non-Euclidean models describe the cosmos and microcosm. More and more intricate forms of measurement became the basis of the scientific method. Eventually, this led to modern topology—the study of those properties of geometric figures or solid bodies that remain invariant under certain transformations.

Heisenberg explained that, “The elementary particles of modern physics can be transformed into each other exactly as in the philosophy of Plato.” In “sacred topology”, the relationships are more than metaphorical. Metaphysical and physical reality coincide. This is abundantly illustrated in Fuller’s Synergetics I & II.

Fuller demonstrates, via synergetics, that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts, because of the relativity of forces. In our universe, as more complex systems are built up, new properties appear that were not foreshadowed by the parts alone. These emergent properties include life, conscious awareness, and beauty.

Plato’s Academy in Athens had a policy: “You are not allowed to enter here, unless you know geometry.” Since Plato’s main injunction is “Know Thyself”, we can infer that to some extent to know oneself one must know geometry – or, conversely, to know geometry somehow helps us know ourselves and cosmos.

Plato was clearly a Pythagorean. He fled to Sicily and studied there around the time of the politically-enforced death of Socrates. In the dialogue, Meno, Plato describes Socrates teaching geometry to a slave. In true Socratic form, he does not instruct him directly. Rather, he elicits knowledge from the slave which he did not know he possessed. The diagrams themselves elicit the buried intuitive knowledge of a world inhabited by the gods and by the divine “Forms.”

Synergetic Topology

Fuller’s Synergetics, a dynamical topology, is not easy to describe or conceptualize. He calls his combination of topology and vectoral geometry, a “complex hierarchy of nuclear system intertransformabilities with low-order numerical and topological relationships.” It is a wholesystems geometrical model of energy configurations – vectoral modeling.

In other words, they are nature’s most economical forms and motions, based on the tetrahedron and great circles. They model nature and sensible reality; synergetics is the coordinate system of nature. Fuller contends, “forces in both macrocosmic and microcosmic structures interact in the same way, moving toward the most economic equilibrium patternings.”

Synergetics is energetic geometry, identifies energy with number, and employs 60-degree coordination based on closest-packed spheres. This includes the lattices of all atoms. Energy has shape. The synergetics of primary systems based on closest-packed spheres is based on the following:

Symmetrical omnitriangulated forms:

tetrahedron, octahedron, icosahedron;

Omnitriangulated and omnisymmetrical forms:cube, diagonal rhomic dodecahedron, rhombic dodecahedron, dodecahedron, tetraxidecahedron, triaxidecahedron, enenicontrahedron. The prime unit of synergetics, the Vector Equilibrium or cuboctahedron, is locally mixed symmetrical and asymmetrical.

Since the physical is always special case, Fuller spells Universe with a capital U. He called the physical Universe, “a discontinuity of such islanded events.” He called them “energeticsynergetic events.” Comprehensive Universe combines both the physical and metaphysical Universe. Asymmetry and disequilibrium are physical; symmetry an equilibrium are metaphysical.

Synergetics is concerned only with physically demonstrable phenomena. Matter never ceases its motion, and when it moves it does so synergetically. Only the metaphysical can “designedly organize the phyical.” Only the physical is alterable; the metaphysical is unalterable. Synergetic advantage flows from the macro to the micro, but not the other way around.

Fuller described how “nothing” becomes “something” through triangulation and geometric energy transforms based on the tetrahedron, octahedron, icosahedron, dodecahedron, and vector equilibrium – from the smallest to the largest “things”. Size depends on frequency which is cyclic.

Conceptuality is metaphysical and independent of size. “Universe is, inferentially, the biggest system,” says Fuller. In this comprehensive system of energy processes, Universe is a nonsimultaneously potential vector equilibrium. This is a metaphysical assertion.

According to the French astrophysicists, Universe is physically a pentagonal dodecahedron. We might add, at least that is arguably true for now, as dynamic transforms seem typical of all such matrices.

According to Fuller’s theory, it may be an infinitely transforming propagating pulsivity.

“Universe is not a system. Universe is not a shape. Universe is a scenario.” He calls our

Universe “finite but nonsimultaneously conceptual.” He says we cannot simultaneously conceptualize Universe except as a scenario of interacting macro and micro systems. We may get an intuitive perception of its magnitude through our human fractal relationship to the greater whole. But it is more than mere analogy, for we are that in the holographic sense that the part contains the whole only in lower resolution. The containment of somethingness by uncontained nothingness is modeled by the five omnisymmetrical Platonic polyhedra. These equiedged Platonic solids are the icosahedron, octahedron, cube, tetrahedron, and the regular dodecahedron.“The chords of these five spherical geometric integrities all interact to produce those wellknown

equiedged polyhedra commonly associated with Plato. The intervolumetric

quantation of these five polyhedra is demonstrated as rational when referenced to the

tetrahedron as unity. Their surface values can also be rationally quantized in reverse order of magnitude by the 48 spherical triangles tiles in whole, low-order, even numbers. These

hierarchies are a discovery of synergetic geometry.” (1975, 1053.21)

Anatomy of the Body of God

“We have therefore discovered in the “Tree of Life,” properly Multiplied and Projected according to the Art of the Wise, what may well be looked upon as the Anatomy of the Body of God, or the natural structure of Matter under the Influence of the Concealed Spirit.” (Frater Achad, 1924). The Great Work of the Qabalists has always consisted in finding the equivalence of the Macrocosm and the Microcosm, heaven and earth. Among the ten spheres of the Tree of Life these are represented respectively by the spheres Kether at the top of the glyph, and Malkuth at its bottom. There is a qabalistic saying about the essence of godhead or spirit in matter: “Kether is in Malkuth.” (See figure above).

Medieval texts describe the creation of the universe as an emanation from the negative veils of existence beginning with Kether, down the ten spheres of the Tree of Life through the archetypal, causal and astral planes to the material world of Malkuth. The prehistory of this traditional Tree diagram is unknown, but may be presupposed to come from the oral mystical tradition.

Sephir Yetzirah describes cryptic directions for constructing a cube extended through the

diagonals of its dualing octahedron. This system reflects that of Cartesian XYZ coordinates we use for orienting in 3-dimensional space. This minimal form of dualing octahedrons and cubes is the lattice from which both single twodimensional

and cubic six-fold Tree of Life diagrams are formed.

Elsewhere (Miller, 1992) I have shown how this figure of interpenetrating cubes and octahedrons is related to Synergetics and kabbalistic geometries through the geometry of Fuller’s Vector Equilibrium Matrix.

The ancient Kabbalistic text, Sephir Yetzirah hinted that the Tree of life could project not only in one direction, but also to the heights and depths and in the four cardinal directions. This is the basis of the kabbalistic meditative geometry known as The Cube of Space (Case, 1947) or Merkabah Throne-Chariot (Work of the Chariot, 1970) [see below].

The Jewish kabbalists did not proceed, as far as anyone knows, to project the Tree further than a single repetition, except in a very linear, ladder-like manner.

Frater Achad, following his intuition, was the first to discover such precise geometric properties in the glyph as the Vesica Pisces and its tetrahedral nature. He proceeded to create nesting, allspace filling two dimensional depictions of the Tree (Macrocosmic Snowflake), then went on to model crystalline nested 3-dimensional Trees (Garden of Eden; see Introduction). The true Kether is concealed within the Malkuth at the center of this solid all-space filling figure. The conception of the universe as a dodecahedron appears to have originated with Plato. Without any awareness of the quantum universe or synergetic energy transformations, Frater Achad was accustomed to thinking of hyperspaces in terms of the qabalistic Cube of Space and Euclidean geometry. His model united Greek (Platonic; Pythagorean) and Hebrew (Qabalistic) models.

He summed up the main result of his research as a dodecahedron within a perfect sphere. If he thought synergetically, he would have spoken of curved pentagonal surfaces. Plato and Plutarch (Republic, Books II and II) imply that the god Vulcan erected twenty tripods in the heavens, which are the twenty solid angles of the dodecahedron formed from the junction of three lines. This framework was bounded by twelve equal and equilateral pentagons.

By starting with a finite center point of Malkuth, or the Sphere of the Earth, Frater Achad projected and multiplied the Tree out until it had 20 vertices, each representing a Kether. He identified this “Triangular Crystal Prism” with “The Stone of the Wise”, and considered it the true representation of the Philosopher’s Stone.

But it may turn out to be more than symbolic if scientists confirm that the universe is, indeed, shaped like a dodecahedron. It may be more than metaphorical, containing the true essence of the universe…from the infinitely small to macrocosmic dimensions. Elsewhere (Miller, 1992) I have shown how the Tree of Life geometry reflects actual microcosmic atomic structure.

Four of Achad’s blocks of Five Trees form a solid capable of progression in all directions so as to fill every dimension of known space. The nature of the whole figure is that of a perfect dodecahedron or twelve-fold figure, each side of which is a perfect pentagon. At the Center of All is Malkuth Achad’s “Garden of Eden” figure (Anatomy, Chapter 9) represents the first or simple prismatic “Tree” branching out in 20 directions from its central Malkuth.

If the second progression of the solid is taken to Tiphereth it exactly encloses this in a perfect dodecahedron comprised of 20 solid angles forming 12 equilateral pentagons.

The Fifth progression of the original Malkuth exactly encloses all this in a perfect sphere.

When connected, the points of the 20 Kethers form twelve perfectly regular pentagons. Thus the whole structure indicates a perfect dodecahedron and, when enclosed in the circumscribing sphere, touches it at eighty points.

The whole solid is capable of expansion by means of the progression of the unit “Trees” as explained before. Likewise, it is possible to imagine the infinitely small reduction or microcosmic contraction of the whole figure.

Achad (Anatomy, Ch.10) points to references about the dodecahedron in Madame Blavatsky’s Secret Doctrine, the foundation text of Theosophy, and unacknowledged basis of most New Age thought:

“The most distinct and the one prevailing idea, found in all ancient teaching, with reference to Cosmic Evolution and the first ‘creation’ of our Globe with all its products, organic and inorganic. . . is that the whole Kosmos has sprung from the Divine Thought. This Thought impregnates Matter, which is co-eternal with the One Reality; and all that lives and breathes evolves from the Emanations of the One Immutable Parabrahman-Mulaprakriti, the Eternal One-Root.

“The former of these, in its aspect of the Central Point turned inward, so to say, into regions quite inaccessible to human intellect is Absolute Abstraction; whereas, in its aspect as Mulaprakriti the Eternal Root of All, it gives one at least some hazy comprehension of the Mystery of Being.

“Therefore, it was taught in the inner temples that the visible Universe of Spirit and Matter is but the Concrete Image of the Ideal Abstraction; it was built on the Model of the First Divine Idea. Thus, our Universe existed from eternity in a latent state. The Soul animating this purely Spiritual Universe is the Central Sun, the highest Deity Itself.

“It was not the One who built the concrete form of the idea, but the First Begotten;

and, as it was constructed on the geometrical figure of the dodecahedron the

First Begotten ‘was pleased to employ 12,000 years in its creation.’ “

It would seem, from the above, that the “Model of the First Divine Idea” may have been very much in harmony with the ideal Formative Principle we have been studying.

Plato says we may liken the receiving principle to a mother, and the source or spring to a father, and the intermediate nature to a child. It reminds immediately of the mythopoetic union of Earth and Heaven and the Life of Nature, which is its offspring.

Plato describes three kinds of being 1) that which is uncreated and indestructible, changeless, eternal, imperceptible to any sense, open only to the contemplation of the intelligence, and this is the principle of the Father [spirit], the ideal or formal essence of the world;

2) that which is sensible and created and always in motion, the Child [matter], the world of change and life;

3) the Mother [spacetime], like the Father, is eternal and admits not of destruction.

She provides a home for all created things, and is apprehended ‘without the

help of sense, by a kind of spurious reason, and is indeed hardly real.’

This mothering space is the cause of the determinism of nature. Plato identifies it as the material element of being. As pure matter, it is purely indeterminate, but it is receptive. The four elements, earth, air, fire and water, are formed from it, for ‘the mother substance becomes earth and air, insofar as she receives the impressions of them.’

Plato’s conception of the formation of these elements from the original substance was as

purely mathematical as are our modern physical notions. ‘God fashioned them by form and number,’ he says: and the forms which he assigned were the forms of the regular solids. Thus the form of the fiery element is the pyramid, of air, the octahedron; of water, the icosahedron; of earth, the cube.

The fifth solid, the dodecahedron, is the form of the universe as a whole, or perhaps

one might say the scaffold upon which the spherical universe is constructed.

Further, these elements are themselves compounded of simpler mathematical forms, the tetrahedron, octahedron and icosahedron of equilateral, the cube of isosceles triangles; so that if we regard the elements as molecules, we may view the triangles as atoms of the material substrate.

Plato’s Academy – Michelangelo

This geometrical account of matter gave rise to the saying ascribed to Plato that ‘God always geometrizes’. God, says Plutarch in his commentary on the saying, made the world in no other way than by setting terms to infinite and chaotic matter.

Achad’s complex solid contains those elements mentioned by Plato. It should be remembered that the Qabalists attribute the four elements to Malkuth, which is often called the Sphere of the Elements. Malkuth has remained a perfect sphere in our plan and in fact represents the material substance of the Universe.

Earth, as Matter, has always been symbolized by the Cube, or the Cube within the Sphere, and we may well consider this Cube to be concealed in the Sphere of Malkuth. When the progression is made to include Tiphereth, the twenty equilateral planes become points, or tripods which mark out the dodecahedron, while the

Second Progression of the Tree exactly encloses this. The points of the twenty Kethers indicate a similar but larger solid.

A Mandala of Perfected Earth

In the symbolism of both Hermetic and Jewish Kabbalah, “earth” represents not only the planetary sphere we live on, but also the whole of the physical plane, the realm of manifest matter. It is a way of representing divinity and the Godhead in matter through sacred geometry Leet (1999) speaks in kabbalistic terms of many of the astral plane properties of such a figure and how it is related to and derived from the Lurianic Tree. Thus the dodecahedron represents the divine personality immanent within both Earth and the cosmos. In this way, the earthy element can mate with her more transcendent partner. The transcendent element contains the entire creation, and is reflected in it at every level. The kabbalists have an axiomatic expression which is their prime formula: “As Above; So Below,” and what could better represent this continuity than this ideal geometry. Even mystic William Blake depicted the Ancient of Days as a geometer.

Leet presents this figure to demonstrate “the only true orthogonal projection of the dodecahedron that can be geometrically allowed in relation to the Sefer Yetzirah,” which is contemplated as well as its final dualing with the icosahedron.

She says it “can represent both the Yichud of those Male and Female Partzufim and also the icosa-dodeca crystalline pattern of this earth.” (p.287).

The Sefer Yetzirah Tree enclosed within an orthogonally projected dodecahedron may be

read as “the consummation of the cosmic mating of Ze’ir Anpin and the Nukvah toward which the entire process has, in Lurianic cosmology, been progressing.”

This repeats our theme of cosmic mating as described by Plato, the kabbalists, and Mme. Blavatsky’s Theosophy. Could this “mating” include the interactive dynamic of Fuller’s tensegrity?

“In this cosmology, such a Yichud is dependent upon the commencement of the Tikkun, and this is also borne out by the geometry of the interconnected Sefer Yetzirah Tree and the Sabbath Star diagram. For if this final dodecahedron is to be given a tonal name, it can be seen to be contained within the inner hexagon of the Fi Sabbath Star…that marks what can be considered the turning point of the cosmic octave between Tzimtzum and Tikkun.”

According to Leet, this mandala of the earth is being perfected by the Tikkun. What does it mean to perfect or restore the world of matter, or the physical plane? Some schools of Kabbalah (Lurianic, Sabbatian) contain a controversial doctrine of Universal Correction (Tikkun) that restores the existential break or gap in Absolute Being which was broken by the shattering of perfection in the Big Bang.

This restored world is not a pre-creation potentiality, however, but a concrete unity of differences and actuality. Raising the “holy sparks” dispersed during creation is the purpose of mankind working in partnership with God on the redemption of the universe. Malkuth is the immanent aspect of divinity.

As the kabbalists say, “Kether is in Malkuth.” Spirit suffuses matter. Malkuth is the turning point between Emanation and Return. The whole endeavor of mystical aspiration is called the Path of Return, and involves working one’s way philosophically back up the experiential Tree of Life to Kether by intentional participation in the Great Work.

Summary

No matter which geometrical description of nature and cosmos we start with, from Buckminster Fuller’s Synergetics to ancient and modern Qabalists, secular or sacred geometry, we seem to wind up with the dodecahedron as a fundamental element.

Much as the alchemists searched for the Godhead in matter (Miller & Miller, 1994), modern scientists seem to have found it there, whether specifically looking for it or not. We could actually argue that they have found the Philosopher’s Stone in the dodecahedral universe. This strongly suggests that the archetypal character of the dodecahedron tends to repeat in intuitive thinking, whether spiritual or scientific. This image, arising in different contexts, comes up in different cultures periodically as a mandala of wholeness. Jung (1964) spoke of the significance of regular geometries and mandalas as images of the Self, part of the pattern of psychic growth.

Scientists have “redeemed” or restored this polygon in philosophical form through a modern projection or model of the Universe as a Dodecahedron, whether their scientific hypothesis proves out and holds, or not.

“For geometry will lead the soul toward truth and create the spirit of philosophy.”

Topology as an Explanation for Weak Wide-Angle

From  the  time  of  Dionysius to the  time  of  Plato,  the
cultures of the Mediterranean consented to the doctrine that
claimed  the existence of an order of ultimate reality which
lies beyond apparent reality.  This "paranormal" reality was
accessible  to  the  consciousness only  when  the  "normal"
routines of mental data processing were dislocated.   It was
Plato's  pupil  Aristotle  who changed his  teacher's  game,
separating  physics  from  metaphysics.   The  philosophical
temper of our present civilization, being scientifically and
technically oriented, is basically Aristotelian.

No  such rational figure as Aristotle arose in the Orient to
a  position  of equal eminence.   Because of this and  other
reasons,  Indian  anatomists  and zoologists,  who where  no
doubt  just  as curious as the Greeks about the  origins  of
life,  and as skilled in dissection,  did not feel compelled
to  set  their disciplines up in opposition to  metaphysics.
Physical  and  metaphysical philosophy remained joined  like
Siamese  twins.   As a result,  the discipline which  became
medicine  in  the  West  evolved  into  a  system  known  as
Kundalini Yoga in the Hindu culture.

In Western terms, Kundalini Yoga can be best understood as a
biological  statement  contained within the language of  the
poetic  metaphor.   The system makes the attempt of  joining
the  seeming disparate entities of body and mind.   It is  a
very  complicated doctrine;   in oversimplified  terms,  the
system  encourages the practitioner to progress through  the
control  of a number of stages,  called Chakras or mind-body
coordination.   A  sixth,  associated with clairvoyance  and
telepathy, is called the Ajna.

The  physiological site of this sixth Chakra,  the Ajna,  is
located in the center of the forehead.   It is symbolized by
an eye - the so-called third eye,  the inner eye, or the eye
of the mind.   When this eye is opened, a new and completely
different   dimension   of  reality  is  revealed   to   the
practitioner  of  yoga.   Western scholars when  they  first
encountered  this  literature,  took the third eye to be  an
appropriately poetic metaphor and nothing else.

It  was not until the middle of the nineteenth  century,  as
the  subcontinent of Australia and its surrounding territory
came to be explored, that a flurry of interest centered upon
a   lizard  native  to  the  are,   the  tuatara  (Sphenodon
punctatum).   This  animal  possessed,  in addition  to  two
perfectly  ordinary eyes located on either side of its head,
a  third eye buried in the skull which was revealed  through
an aperture in the bone,  covered by a transparent membrane,
and surrounded by a rosette of scales.   It was unmistakably
a   third   eye  but  upon  dissection  it  proved   to   be
non-functional.

Though  this eye still possessed the structure of a lens and
a  retina,  these were found to be no longer in good working
order:  also lacking were the appropriate neural connections
to  the  brain.   The presence of this eye in  the  tuaqtara
still  posses  a puzzle to  present-day  evolutionists,  for
almost all vertebrates possess a homologous structure in the
center  of  their skull.   It is present in many  fish,  all
reptiles,   birds,   and  mammals  (including  man).    This
structure is known in literature today as the pineal gland.

The  gland is shaped like a tine pine cone situated deep  in
the  middle  of  the  brain  between  the  two  hemispheres.
Studies  then  began to determine whether this organ  was  a
true functioning gland or merely a vestigial sight organ,  a
relic from our reptilian past.  In 1959 Dr. Aaron Lerner and
his  associates at Yale University found that meletonin (1),
a  hormone  manufactured by the pineal  gland,  was  created
through  the  action  of  certain  enzymes  on  a  precursor
chemical  which must pre-exist in the pineal in order for it
to  be transformed into melatonin.   This precursor chemical
turned out to be serotonin (2).

It  was  E.J.  Gaddum,  a professor of pharmacology  at  the
University  of  Edinburgh,  who  was  the first  to  note  a
connection between serotonin and mental states of being.  In
a  paper  published in 1953,  he pointed out the  fact  that
LSD-25  was a potent antagonist to serotonin.   Serotonin is
not  an  unusual chemical in nature;   it is found  in  many
places  -  some  of them odd,  like the salivary  glands  of
octopuses,  others  ordinary;   it abounds in plants such as
bananas,  figs, and plums.  What then is its function in the
human brain?

The task of exploring the role played by melatonin,  and its
precursor serotonin,  was undertaken by a biochemist, Julius
Axelrod.   He  found that melatonin suppressed physiological
sexuality  in mammals.   If test animals were stimulated  to
manufacture excessive amounts of melatonin, their gonads and
ovaries  tended  to become reduced in size,  to  shrink,  to
atrophy.   The  estrous or fertility cycle in females  could
likewise be altered experimentally by doses of melatonin.

Now  two  most curious functions had been attributed to  the
pineal gland, the third eye of the mind:
    (1)  It  has  now  been  established  that  this  organ
produced  a chemical which had,  indirectly at  least,  been
associated with psychedelic states, and
    (2)   It  also  produced a  chemical  which  suppressed
functional sexuality.

The  literature  of religious mysticism in all ages and  all
societies  has  viewed  the mystical passion of  ecstasy  as
being  somehow  antagonistic  to,  or in  competition  with,
carnal passion.

Axelrod   and   his  co-workers  also   discovered   another
incredible  fact:  the  pineal gland produces  its  chemical
according  to a regular oscillating beat,  the basis of this
beat being the so-called circadian rhythm.   They found that
the  pineal responded somehow to light conditions,  that  by
altering  light conditions they could extend,  contract,  or
even  stabilize  the  chemical  production  rhythms  of  the
pineal.

The  fact  that the pineal responds to light,  even if  this
response  is  indirect via the central nervous  system,  has
some  fascinating and far-reaching conceptual  applications.
There  are many behavioral changes which overtake animals as
the seasons change,  and which can be produced out of season
in  the  laboratory  by simulating the appropriate  span  of
artificial  daylight.   Do such seasonal changes in mood and
behavior persist in humans?

The  great religious holy days of all faiths tend to cluster
around  the  times of the solstices and  equinoxes.   Is  it
possible  that  the  human pineal gland  responds  to  these
alterations in length of daylight?   Changing the balance of
neurohumors  in  the  brain  may perhaps  effect  a  greater
incidence  of  psychedelic  states  in  certain  susceptible
individuals  just at these crucial times.   This possibility
provides  an entirely new potential dimension to our secular
understanding of the religious experience.

The  pineal  gland  has thus been referred to as a  kind  of
biological  clock,  one  which  acts as a kind  of  coupling
system;    perhaps  maintaining  phase  relations  within  a
multi-oscillator  system;   a phase coordinator for multiple
bio-rhythms.   The pineal is a "cosmic eye;"  it is aware of
celestial  rhythm.   It  "tunes"  our biochemistry to  those
subtle rhythms not observed by the normal eye, like seasonal
and lunar changes rather than daily ones.   Serotonin can be
seen as the "intensity knob"  of the brain.  As the level of
serotonin increases,  so does the level of activation of the
cortex.

Strong suspicion has fallen now on serotonin as being one of
the principle agents of the psychedelic experience.  Studies
now  reveal  that LSD-25 strikes like a chemical  guerrilla,
entering  into receptor granules in the brain cells swiftly,
and  then  leaving after a very short time,  perhaps ten  to
twenty  minutes (in animals).   When the bulk of LSD-25  has
left the receptor granules,  it is replaced by what seems to
be  excessive,  or super-normal amounts of  serotonin.   The
LSD-25  creates what is called a "bouncing effect,"  like  a
spring pushed too tight.  When the LSD-25 leaves the system,
the serotonin springs back and overcompensates.

For most of us,  most of the time,  our world is a Darwinian
environment.   We  must manipulate ourselves within  it,  or
attempt  to  manipulate  it  in  order  to  survive.   These
survival needs tend to color our appreciation of this world,
and  we are continually making judgments about it.   Some of
these  judgements  are based on prior  personal  experience,
others  are  provide  by  the  culture.   This  "recognition
system"  is one of the elements disrupted by the psychedelic
state.

The   principle   question  concerning  psychedelic   states
remains:  How much disruption can the system tolerate?   The
problem  of  how to maintain a certain madness while at  the
same  time  functioning at peak efficiency has now  captured
the  attention of many psychiatrists.   There seems to be  a
point at which Edgar Allen Poe's "creative madness"  becomes
degenerative, impeding function rather than stimulating it.

In  light  of  this analysis,  a shaman can be  seen  to  be
uncoupling   his  internal  bio-sensor  from  the  universal
inputs.   He  gets  "drift"  where he is rushed  toward  new
signal-to-noise  ratios.   The particular rituals are set up
to   disconnect  the  shaman  from  his  social  and  cosmic
environment.   this  is  done  through  the  ritual  use  of
hallucinogens;   they  de-synchronize his internal  rhythms.
This   de-synchronization   produces  more  noise   in   his
awareness.  It also expands that awareness.  The rituals are
so  designed as to contain elements which focus or tune that
"noise" and direct the expanded awareness.

Man  is  unique by virtue of being possessed  by  intuitions
concerning the scope of the mysterious universe he inhabits.
He  has  devised  for himself all manner of  instruments  to
prove  the  nature  of this  universe.   The  beginnings  of
scientific  understanding  of  shamanistic  ritual  and  the
function  of  the  third eye provide man with  powerful  new
techniques   for  exploration.    This  will  allow  him  to
penetrate  the  vast  interior spaces where the  history  of
millions of years of memories lies entangled among the roots
of the primordial self.

(1)  The  chemical  substance melanin is the  pigment  which
darkens  skin  color.   It is located in  specialized  cells
scattered through the topmost layer of skin.   Melatonin was
found  to  be  the  substance responsible  for  causing  the
contraction of melanin-producing cells.

(2)   Serotonin  is  of the same chemical series  of  indole
alkaloids  which  include psychedelic drugs such as  LSD-25,
psilocybin, D.M.T. and bufotenine.  The hormone serotonin is
also known as 5-hydroxtryptamine.

06-01-92   This  paper  was originally written in  1975  for
several  scientific publications,  and was reprinted IN  THE
CONTINUUM (Vol.II,  No.3) in 1978.   At that time,  I made a
very  important  discovery which was added to  THE  HOLISTIC
QABALAH  series.   I thought to share that discovery at this
time, to complete my thoughts on this subject:

In  1979  I  was in a very serious  accident,  where  I  was
crushed   between   a  brick  wall  and  an   out-of-control
automobile.   My left knee was crushed,  the parenteal nerve
was  severed at the knee.   I was going to loose my leg!   I
postponed surgery,  did some specific rituals with Kundalini
and  my "third eye,"  and now have complete regeneration  of
nerve tissue - something now believed by mainstream medicine
as physically impossible.  Here is how I did it:

There is a "chill" which runs up (Gopi Krishna) or down (Sri
Aurobino) the spine at certain times of the week.   You can,
in some situations,  actually induce this event.  Sometimes,
you  can  make our whole body shake.   This is the  physical
aspects  of  Kundalini.   On a physical plane,  there are  a
series of small nerve fillia that stick out from the spine -
almost like a "ladder."

The "chill" is an EM-wave that is traveling up (or down) the
spine,  as each nerve fillia begins to oscillate.   The most
interesting  fact about this is that the EM-field  frequency
in  the visible light region!   This is what most  religions
refer to as "The Light."   And what is a the very top end of
this wave-train of light?  The pineal gland!

Now,  if you stimulate the pineal gland on a regular basis -
lets do it 3 times each day, what happens next is wonderful.
The pineal gland is "light sensitive,"  its primary function
now  understood  to regulate the body for  seasonal  changes
(health).  This so stimulates the pineal gland that it sends
out a signal down the neural cavity.   The neural cavity, of
course,  connects  the  pineal  gland at one  end  with  the
thalamus at the other....

What  happens is that a resonant cavity oscillator is set up
in the neural cavity, causing it to modify the gleal cell it
normally  manufactures.   If there are enough trace minerals
in  your diet,  this stimulated neural cavity with  actually
create  true nerve cells,  rather than those associate  with
sheath (gleal).   If you take a trace mineral supplement and
do this exercise, you can regenerate nerve tissue!

The  actual process took some 5 months of daily  meditation,
as  the actual consistency of nerve tissue is somewhat  like
that  of Vitamin E - very viscus and slow to travel down  my
central  nervous system to my knee.   I no longer have nerve
loss  of  any kind.   This was documented by Clinic 7  (Pain
Clinic) at the University of Washington in 1980.  I now walk
normally, although I still have some structural problems.

This  is  but one application of the principles outlined  in
this paper.   Serotonin can also be considered a "Gate"  for
accessing   other  dimensions  not  accessible  to  "normal"
consciousness.  If you enjoy this style of writing and these
subjects,  I  recommend  you review the  DrRam  Bibliography

Richard Alan Miller has been at the forefront of many fields during his long and varied career. A solid-state physicist with graduate work at MIT, Miller was involved in groundbreaking work for cloaked agencies in the late ’60s and ’70s. A colleague of Dr. Stanley Krippner, Miller co-authored in 1973 the paper, The Holographic Concept of Reality – a document whose implications for psychoenergetic systems are only now beginning to be realized.

Like so many of idealists of his era, Miller became quickly disillusioned with the severe ethical compromises forced on him by what he recognized as corporate manipulation. After a brief stint as an engineer at Boeing, Miller left the corporate world in disgust and entered the more spiritually satisfying world of the occult. He opened Beltane Books in Seattle and swiftly became ” the Herman Slater of the West Coast.” At this time he penned several works including his classic ” The Magical and Ritual Use of Herbs.”
Miller also co-authored, with his wife Iona, THE MODERN ALCHEMIST, hailed by Stanley Krippner as the most “illuminating” study of Alchemy since Carl Jung. Before its publication, Miller had used an electronic form of the book as teaching material for his on-line course in Metaphysics, taught on America Online. MORE
