t h e O ’ S P A 139 t h e O ’ S P A 138 Radiesthesia and radionics - the second as a consequence of the first - have been experimenting along this path since the end of the nineteenth century, operating upon a belief that the sensitivity of one’s own body allows the human being to read these constantly-moving fields related to matter. With the use of devices which amplify these vibrations, the practitioner of radiesthesia probes the environment and living beings. From their resonance, the practitioner can understand their traits and needs. The radionic operator does not only limit his or herself to the analysis, but also sends out messages and information on how to correct or improve the function of the body detected by these fields. Radiesthesia observes, listens and describes, while radionics intervenes, communicates and transfers. Both probe and act in the same playing field. Since our five senses do not detect these activities, a little imagination is needed. If we are to discuss quantum physics without the basics, it can be useful to imagine every body as a small sun. We clearly spot the radiation coming from our star, from which we can measure the heat that is given off and the temperature of its nucleus. Imagine that we can observe the same activity in the apparatuses that form the human being - or, any living organism in general - and perceive the traits that this radiation transmits, being able to influence and correct it accordingly. Radiesthesia and radionics investigate and operate based on this evidence. The other assumption that unites these practices is the possibility to operate at a distance. A distance measured in kilometers, thus a physical one, since radionics states that no distances exist, except the real one encountered by our eyes. Bodies - particles - with the same resonance - correlated - remain always in contact. Science says so. The first to define the principles of radionics was the Californian physician Albert Abrams, who was born, and died, in San Francisco between the nineteenth and the twentieth century. Abrams used electrical impulses in his studies, regulating these units of measurement on the signals he perceived through resonance from his patients. Expelled by the medical association and ultimately accused of fraud, he is considered a genius by those who recognise his first efforts to classify resonance emitted by living organisms. Organ by organ, Abrams had pinpointed the ailments on the basis of radiation errors detected by his diagnosis technique. The element which has been abandoned in Abrams’ theories is the use of electricity as a language for dialogue in the relationships between organisms. But it was his taxonomic approach to this discipline that is crucial in the radionic tradition. Criticised, but still recognised as an expert biologist, the British essayist Rupert Sheldrake became a researcher following the completion of his studies in Cambridge and Harvard. Already a member of the Royal Society , Sheldrake caused a stir in the 70s and 80s when he proposed Formative Causation . Upon postulating this theory, the English biologist defined the energy fields emanated by living organisms as “ morphic fields ”, capable of organising the matter to which they belong and keep information on physical and behavioural organisation. Next to DNA, Sheldrake identified these morphic fields as a new fabric of knowledge on organisms, adding cultural and evolutionary factors among the traits of this invisible and silent communication. Morphic fields define the change of habits that typify living species: revolutions that span centuries and are transmitted to future generations, remaining imprinted as if these were instinctive. Meanwhile radionics has been substantiated in due course, and its theories filled with legitimacy from the field of medicine [Abrams], engineering [Galen Hieronymus] and biology [Sheldrake]. The practice has evolved and become recognised in certain cultures and countries as natural medicine therapy. Associations have been created across the entire world and the support derived from quantum physics has led to a qualitative leap in their interpretation. It is not unlikely that a new unit of measurement will be used to describe living species within a few decades. After height and weight, frequency or resonance will be next. The medical field is still waiting to announce the type of energy emanating from every body, the one that quantum physics has detected in the relationship between the most infinitesimal particles that compose matter. Now that it has been unveiled that no body is truly isolated, what still remains to discover and understand is how to ride this wave, one which is absolutely undetectable by our five senses, yet inherent to the existence of everything.
