18) Agricultural Radionics Today

Fortunately, agricultural Radionics still exists in our world today in many guises and forms, even as simple a one as a green thumb. Out of numerous well qualified possibilities claiming direct descent from Upton and Armstrong however, two will be mentioned here.

“Various European governments and landowners report that forests that were once dying are now being miraculously rejuvenated. Farmers report measurable increases in crop yields and livestock reproduction. People visiting and living on treated land areas experience enhanced well-being and a greater sense of community. What is going on here?”

These are the words of Dr. Franz Lutz, Director of Europe’s Institute for Resonance Therapy (IRT) and Matthew Cross, President of Leadership Alliance.

“The answer is a remarkable method for conscious restoration and rejuvenation of ecosystems, people and the planet: Resonance Therapy. This new science, which at first sounds like something from a science fiction novel, defies "modern" scientific paradigms. Yet the results from Europe’s Institute for Resonance Therapy (IRT) near Dusseldorf, Germany are attracting increasing international attention from many agriculturists, environmentalists, therapists, scientists and governments.

“IRT has now been using its unique energetic principles to revitalize dying ecosystems for ten years. Recognized by the Gorbachev Foundation and the European Economic Community (EEC) Environmental and Agricultural Department, IRT has been involved in revitalizing reserves in Russia, restoring parkland in Austria, and treating depleted farmland in England. Resonance Therapy has also demonstrated positive results for treating people as well.”
The Institute for Resonance Therapy (IRT - their site seems to be gone, this link to it circa 2002 is via archive.org's Wayback Machine ), was established by the German natural healer and Radionics practitioner Irene Lutz and Dr. Marion Hoensbroech in 1986 in response to accelerated ecosystem degradation in Europe. Today, the IRT uses for its revitalizing services a computerized Radionics device called the SE-5, working remotely with an aerial photograph or map (called a "resonator") of the area to be treated. The SE-5 has been applied by IRT to many double-blind studies, quickly becoming the instrument of choice for their applications.

Newer approaches to agriculture Radionics do not focus as much on getting rid of pests as on building up the strength of the seeds, soil and plants. The methods of IRT emphasize this point of constructive balancing and nurturing, which strengthen the forests against predators and disease. Their radionic analyses found that the introduction pollution and chemicals from the atmosphere and water have stressed the forest's ability to adapt to change.

By increasing the vitality of the forests through radionic augmentation, IRT is able to assist the adaptation of the forests to the new circumstances. Their process, called "Resonance Therapy", introduces a new "organizing field" into the forests' ecology that reinforces the potential for the system to adapt and reorganize itself again.

Under the guidance of the local forest service, the ecosystem designated for treatment is analyzed radionically and the appropriate IDF resonators are used to balance the systems. These sessions normally run for two to four hours a day, five days a week, with two people monitoring the results.

Author Don Paris, in his book From Regaining Wholeness Through the Subtle Dimensions, describes the IDF process this way: "Detailed physical examination of foliage growth, new root development, the forest floor, leaf analysis, light measurements and tests of control trees in the surrounding area are done twice yearly. With the heavy burden of our present pollution, forests usually need about three years of balancing before they are able to renew their self-regulation process again. The results of the balancing show themselves on many levels, i.e., the increase of humus on the ground, an increase of the number of plant species in the forest, better food supply for the trees, and increase of leaf mass. Interestingly, the animals in the area seem to sense the balancing and seek out food and nesting in the areas that are being balanced."

Other experiments at IDF are done with photographs of these treated forests, before and after, with all the treated trees showing much improvement over the controls. Similar tests are done on seeds and sprouts, where roots, stems and leaves can be readily measured by comparison.

When plants are connected to an EEG (electroencephalogram) and then treated from some distance away by the SE-5, a sharp increase can be seen on the graph at the beginning of the treatment which continues to grow.

Currently projects in Germany, Austria, Russia, and Czechoslovakia, some over 40,000 hectares are underway, according to Paris. Undoubtedly, creative approaches to agricultural Radionics like that of IDF are underway in hundreds or even thousands of locations around the world, in varying levels of sophistication, are taking place today. We do not hear about them, however, because of scientism's blackout of this technology and the general unwillingness of researchers to accept methods that provide results that do not stem from an existing scientific paradigm.

It is a testimony to the lasting effects of pioneers like Curtis Upton that these techniques have continued to flourish and expand throughout the world in spite of official condemnation. We will turn our attention now to the case of Little Farm Research, a Utah homestead that has been successfully using and promoting Radionics in all aspects of rural family life.

Lutie Larsen of Little Farm Research is a radiant mother and grandmother, Radionics pioneer and one of the best educators in Radionics alive today. From her homestead in Utah, Lutie approaches Radionics in a family-oriented way, treating her garden, her animals, her family and her spirit with equal dexterity. In each case, Radionics has proved to be a creative, efficient way of managing the many challenges of day to day life on a homestead. Her simple "down to earth' approach is what makes her methods so attractive and effective in a cultural environment that remains so hostile to Radionics.

In 1999, Lutie received a diploma from Keys College of Radionics, Oxford, England in Radionic Agriculture and Horticulture. Many would say that by the time she received her diploma she was already in a world class of her own. Since 1974 Ms Larsen has studied and developed radionics in such a way as to make it familiar, comprehensible and eminently natural, without loosing any of its magic and wonder. Finding herself in the position to help others, she began teaching radionic theory and application in 1983.

Today, Lutie and her daughter call their operation in Utah Little Farm Research. She is also a partner in Wise Woman Ventures, a company that supports and consults with women in business. Recently she disclosed that for many years, she was a consultant with cosmetics giant Estee Lauder. Ms. Larsen is the mother of 10 and grandmother of 14 children. Her website and her newsletter, "The Radionic Homestead Report" can be found at http://www.littlefarmresearch.com .

Lutie’s model demonstrates how Radionics can benefit normal day to day life. Using Radionics appropriately can free us of many false assumptions, services and products we have grown accustomed to and dependent upon in our lives. In Lutie's system, Radionics becomes much more of a philosophy of applied balance, a technical Taoism, than a type of occult technology. As much as a Radionics device utilizes the mind of the operator to work, so does the reverse become true. Through Radionics, the mind of the operator is brought to bear on the critical details of daily life, addressing each with love and patience and care. In Lutie’s hands, Radionics becomes more a metaphysical approach to life than a tool or technique.

As a result, one learns that attention is not to be wasted; we can constantly reinforce meaning in our lives through directed attention, instead of dissipating it through inertia. Radionics may not be a cure for every problem, but in the world of Little Farm Research it goes a long way.

Lutie's device of choice for her work is also the computerized SE-5, as it was for the Institute of Resonance Therapy. More information on the SE-5 appears in the ‘Computerized Radionics’ chapter.

Excerpts from in interview with Lutie Larsen* by Marie Allizon** January 2001

“Marie: What is the definition of subtle energy for you?

“Lutie: We all have a sense of the meaning of subtle - in the background, less obvious, more yin-like - but I think we misunderstand the meaning of energy in this context. Most of us think of energy as force like the motor of a car starting and moving, or the energy activated by turning a switch. I would like to define subtle energy in a different way. I feel that subtle energy is more information than force, or perhaps it could be called intelligent energy/force. The subtle energy fields were called Formative Force Fields by Rudolf Steiner and George de la Warr spoke of the "Formative Rays" coming from the "Counterpart body".
The great physicist David Bohm once gave an illustration of Quantum Potential by describing a huge airplane flying on autopilot and having a computer on the earth radio a correction in course to the airplane’s computer. That radio wave carried information that changed the course of the airplane. It did demonstrate force but from information not physical force.

“Subtle energy is like that and the subtle energy we use in healing and strengthening the physical form, I believe is more information than force. Coherent subtle energy activates manifestation. It is truly a formative or creative force in a subtle way. Every physical form has a subtle field -a complex informational pattern. And the physical form and the subtle pattern are inherently linked.

”This is David Bohm’s "Implicate Order" linked with the tangible, physical "Explicate Order". Once we understand that this subtle information is the manifesting pattern or formative force we can begin to understand the importance of supporting health and wellbeing. Our focus will change from what is wrong and placing all our attention on dis-ease, disharmony to what is right, coherent, harmonious and synergistic. We will start building, supporting instead of trying to fix by tearing down.”

The following examples of what Lutie teaches people to do with Radionics are taken from her website:

“Measurement of positive subtle energy fields associated with living systems and a comparison of them with normal healthy fields.

"Measurements of negative or pathogen-toxin subtle energy associated with unhealthy or otherwise distorted living systems.

"Experiments to balance and utilize subtle energy fields.

"Experiments using potentized vibrational or homeopathic-type preparations.

"Experiments to measure and compare the energy compatibility between a substance and a life form.

"Experiments to develop consciousness."

Of the last, Lutie has this to say: "Much knowledge from the golden era of the past is being restored. The ability to tap into natural law and to understand the principles that govern the physical world is taught through working with the subtle body fields. For us this is the greatest gift of Radionics, that unique, utterly amazing view of our whole being and the "beings" we interact with daily on this marvelous earth plane."
