The Orgone Wombiverse

OOBEs, Oranur & Teleology

I’ve been reading Robert Monroe’s early accounts of his consciousness research. He was a pioneer of the study of the OOBE (Out Of Body Experience). He developed a simple non-invasive method that enabled them to be studied in a lab type setting. I find Monroe very interesting partly because I have developed a similar approach, and also as he uses what amounts to a kind of experiential analysis. I use dream analysis and the creation of numbers to ‘communicate’ with an energy field - the orgone or oranur. Monroe used the induction of OOBEs to explore the energy universe.

I have read his excellent, Journeys Out Of Body and Far Journeys and am very much looking forward to reading his newest book which brings it all together, Ultimate Journey. I can also recommend his institutes’ podcast, Expanding On Consciousness, which although a few years old is nicely presented and features in-depth and long chats with many of the seminal figures in consciousness research. It also doesn’t suffer from an over-materialist bent which is nice.

Reading his Far Journeys book, which is more autobiographical, I was surprised to find out that there might be a connection to oranur energy in Mr Monroe’s initial foray into OOBEs. Mr Monroe was a successful businessman from a well thought of ‘no nonsense’ type family who were regular church goers. When he started having frequent OOBEs he thought he was going mad and got himself checked out by all sorts of medics and psychiatrists. When he couldn’t find anything wrong and the experiences continued he set about investigating them scientifically - the Monroe Institute was thus born.

There are three things that connect his experience to oranur energy. Firstly, the house he lived in when the OOBEs started had a pyramid shaped roof. This roof was copper lined too. Pyramids may concentrate orgone energy. Some believe that the uppermost pyramidion of the Giza pyramids was plated with metals such as copper or other precious materials originally. There is not a lot on orgone accumulators and pyramids but see here for more, Widmoser, J. 1981, The Orgone-Energetic Effect of the Pyramid, JO, Vol 15, Num 2pp219-223 or Seiler, H. 1982, New Experiments in Thermal Orgonometry, Vol 16, Num 2, pp197-206. See also Schul and Pettit, Secret Power of Pyramids for more orgone-like effects. There is evidence that geometric shapes accumulate orgone (for example from the dowsing research I’ve mentioned in previous posts).

So the roof would very much increase the orgone charge. A copper roof and a large pyramid structure were both present in his suburban home in Westchester county near New York (Far Journeys, pp4). Copper is a strongly energising and warming metal so it might have an oranur effect just in itself (oranur is energised orgone). My own experiences with OOBs were precipitated by my early experiments with oranur in the county of Cheshire, England.

The second connection to Mr Monroe is the phenomena that he gets when he is going OOB. This is a strong buzzing or vibration sensation. I also got this very markedly when I was in a high oranur field and subsequently popped out of body during my early oranur experiments. Only 38% of people having OOBEs get this phenomena apparently (Far Journeys, pp288). If I left a strong oranur device running nearby and fell asleep sometimes a loud humming vibration would occur within my body and I’d enter the OOB state. The vibration has occurred a few times. It was very frightening at first, as it was for Mr Monroe. I thought I might die, as did Mr Monroe I think. I didn’t know anything about the Monroe Institute or his work when this first happened to me around 2017.

The third connection is an energy characteristic to the precipitation of OOBEs in the Monroe lab. There are sleep ‘booths’ in the lab which are stronger than others which suggests the existence of resident energy fields. Aligning the person North-South seems to be propitious too, again suggesting that energy fields heighten the experience (and reminding one of the subtle energy work of Reichenbach). There seems to be a connection to magnetism in some way. Orgone changes or even induces magnetic fields. Lastly, water beds were used in the institute booths which would themselves have an energetic effect on the orgone field (as orgone is strongly attracted to water).

The amazing Robert Monroe, over many years of often difficult and quite challenging work, has mapped out, without imposing a prior religious or philosophical viewpoint, the energy/consciousness environment in which we exist on this planet. I feel he has done it quite accurately. Basically we have a material and an energy body. The energy body can remove itself from the material and there are a set of expanding ‘locales’ which surround the planet in which the energy body can exist (as well as roaming the material locale). This got me to thinking about what the ultimate purpose of this whole locale or realm we live in actually is, from a consciousness and energetic viewpoint. I’ve been on quite a teleological trip this month!

All the main conceptions of the nature of this realm seem to me somewhat problematic:

This realm as a ‘school’ - yes we do come here to learn but at some point presumably, if we came from the ‘source’ energy we would have known all there is to know so why would we forget it all in order to go through the trauma of remembering? Why would we want to be so lost that we could be found, when we were found in the first place? Does the ‘source’ or God in which we have our prior existence, get bored or somehow lack knowledge? Or become lonely? This seems unlikely. But there definitely is learning aspects to our existence in this difficult realm. One of the things that makes us human, rather than animal, is our heightened ability to learn. I would say when we became dependent on the technology we created, be it animal skins or arrows we were no longer animals but humans, though some animals use limited technology, they are not dependent on it, possibly except for birds and their nests. So yes we are in a school but it is only a partial explanation I feel.

This realm as ‘matrix’ - this comes down to the difference between illusion and reality. Many of those who say we exist in an illusory matrix, from the early Hindus, the Gnostics and modern holographic theorists do not always outline what is by contrast a ‘reality’. Anything that is experienced is a reality, including an illusory one! So illusory realities are still real, just perhaps a lower quality of real! To be fair, this is pretty much what Plato said too. So maybe the all powerful ‘source’ energy eventually created a demi-urge who eventually created our world and who harvests us for our ‘loosh’ energy as the Gnostics might say.

Sometimes it seems our whole earth is parasitical. We are parasites on chickens and cows and wheat. But we don’t see ourselves that way. Probably as the entities that feed on us, both the material and the spiritual, don’t see themselves that way either? We need steering from their point of view. Managing, farming. For our own good of course. But is it just a huge cycle of addiction of those cut off from the source? The demi-urge could well be real and the fears of the Gnostics could well be founded. But it still seems a strange and somewhat pointless exercise to expel heavenly citizens from primeval perfection in order for them to have the freedom to create illusory matrixes in which they can then feed on their fellow citizens parasitically. Certainly this world appears parasitical in many ways but is this ‘why’ this world exists? It seems too simple and neat an answer for me.

This realm as a ‘free-will examination’ - the ‘source’ or God creates humans fully formed but then puts them in a specially designed realm of pain (or sometimes pleasure) where they can decide for themselves whether to align with their original source, God, or rebel and risk going to their ultimate doom. Again why create creatures just for some of them to fail? Doesn’t that indicate a lack of foresight or a lack of perfection?

This realm as ‘endless reincarnation’ - we are doomed to wander forever in this realm hopping between the material and the spirit until we achieve escape velocity. But why go into this realm at all if the main purpose is to escape it? Being with source and God ain’t so great so we need a diversion for however many years?

This realm as a ‘game’ - we are just here for entertainment. We have to forget our true selves and risk being endlessly humiliated and saddened in order to play a game we cannot possibly win. If we do by some remote chance win, our prize is to become what we were before we even played. If the whole purpose of this realm is diversion, that implies we were not content and perfect before setting out to play this game. But we might come out of the game with more than we came in with - so it could be true to say there are game-like aspects.

This realm as ‘purposeless’ - craziness happens and there’s nothing you can do about it. Enjoy the ride! But all animals are driven by goals. All consciousness has goals. Even the most nihilistic philosopher strives to stay alive - most days. Bacteria struggle to survive and have ‘goals’. All environments and the cosmos itself is alive and conscious, therefore it must have an overarching ‘goal’ as consciousness cannot exist without goals. So this realm itself must have a singular higher ‘purpose’ or goal.

A variation on a theme is that because the universe doesn’t have any purpose we can give it our own egotistical purpose instead. All things are nested within other things. All consciousness is nested within a greater consciousness. So if you know the ultimate purpose than you are in fact the ultimate consciousness and identical with God’s purpose anyway.

None of these answers as to the nature of our realm seems too satisfying ultimately.

However, I’ve been in quite a teleological mood all this month. I’ve been thinking what is the actual overall purpose of this realm really? And then it occurred to me perhaps we are ‘grown’ rather than ‘created’ and that explains the purpose of this realm - we live in a wombiverse for birthing little godlets!

I saw an enjoyable sci-fi series called Resident Alien which was about a shapeshifting Octopus type humanoid who came to Earth to destroy it but became enmeshed in its life and eventually discovered he could grow a soul and enjoy being human for a while. In Genesis creation is brought forth successively, it is grown as much as created, the Earth, the waters and the sky gives birth (brings forth) creatures and things, things which have their own consciousness. Nothing is dead in the Biblical view.

Perhaps this whole realm is but a dance of the source energy? We are Dante’s sparks of the divine, acting out the Divine Comedy. We maybe start out as merely an orgone particle, move on up to a particle of dust in a conscious plasma cloud, then perhaps we experience life as some element of matter before working our way up to animal life, then human life and then whatever comes after that. The trans-humanists seem to be saying they will decide what comes next. Utopias have never really worked out well. Including techno ones. Doesn’t a utopia imply an end? An end is artificial and cannot last. God is such an anarchist! But maybe our post-human future is already there in the dance of ‘source’ - we just need to tune into it.

Having said that, I believe we are already in many ways a ‘post-human’ society. If one is so integrated with technology, computerised, ‘thinking’ technology, that one cannot function without it then one is effectively already a cyborg, a post-human. We are already post-animal but now we are rapidly becoming post-human too. One cannot function as an adult in China, even work as a small farmer, without a smartphone I am told. That might not be a particularly bad thing but I’d say it does make China the first fully post-human society.

Maybe this realm is an orgone ‘womb’. So, rather than the ‘source’ or God creating us as fully formed humans, perhaps we start out tiny and grow from a seed in some far distant past. This might explain why this realm is so hard sometimes. If we were to get stuck, say as a squirrel, we might stay there forever and not realise that we were destined to be human beings. Then as humans we might get stuck too and not realise we are destined to become stars, planets, or cosmic beings of some sort. Eventually perhaps the whole dance ends when every orgone particle is reunited fully with source? And then it would begin all over again presumably. Then again in the absence of linear time all these stages might happen at once and in multiple, even infinite iterations or dimensions. I think that makes more sense of the nature of this realm and it’s matrix-like, school-like, prison-like, game-like, heavenly and hellish aspects. Why create this realm at all if it wasn’t somehow necessary for the expression of the ‘source’?
