CHAPTER 17

RADIONICS MEETS POPULAR CULTURE

Anything as hopeful as radionics likely casts a shadow, and the shadow in this case is the lethal potential of the technology. There is a famous story about how Ed Hermann, an engineer at McGraw-Hill, Inc. publishing company in New York, upon learning of radionics, asked Hieronymus to treat a caterpillar-infested tree on his lawn. He never expected that from 300 miles away Hieronymus, using a photograph (and negative), would be able to exterminate in a few days the insects that had resisted every other treatment!

For safety’s sake and national security, Hieronymus later claimed to have deliberately removed some critical factors from the patent. Whether this is true or not remains unresolved. Today, some manufacturers claim that they have installed components in their radionics devices that prevent them from being used for harm.

In retrospect, Hieronymus was anything but pleased by the notoriety his invention was accorded, especially the focus on its potential for pest control. In this regard, it’s worth mentioning the correspondence between Hieronymus and Astounding editor John Campbell, as it serves to illustrate and illuminate many aspects of radionics that remain mysterious and unresolved to this day. It also helps the reader understand the technical and cultural difficulties about why that should still be the case.

The following excerpts are drawn from The Story Of Eloptic Energy, The Autobiography Of An Advanced Scientist Dr. T. Galen Hieronymus, which was authored by his wife Dr. Sarah Williams Hieronymus and published in 1988 by the Institute of Advanced Sciences. In Chapter V, Hieronymus writes that he chose these letters because “they represent, on the part of Mr. Campbell, a viewpoint of a man who seemed wedded to an opinion common to many people, that of regarding the study of Eloptic Energy as something magical or supernatural. He ignored the long years of research and application of the power of Eloptic Energy for healing the human body, and dwelt on the conducting powers of India ink to create a replica of the schematic of my Eloptic Energy Biometer (Analyzer).

“I appreciated Mr. Campbell’s interest in my work, but over the years since then, I have concluded he set back the acceptance of my work at least a hundred years by his continual emphasis on what he termed the supernatural or ‘magic’ aspects of a mind-control device he built by drawing the schematic of my patented instrument with India ink. The energy flowed over the lines of this drawing, because India ink is conducting, but it wasn’t worth a tinker’s damn for serious research or actual treating.”

Hieronymus is referring, of course, to Campbell’s ability to make a symbolic drawing of the device function as well as the electronic one. This development, while boding poorly for the study of eloptic energy, has just the opposite potential for applying subtle energy through art. Clearly,
