On Saturday May 24 and Sunday May 25 an Orgonomy conference was held in the home/office of Dr. Stephan Simonian in Granada Hills, CA. This conference was sponsored by The Journal of Psychiatric Orgone Therapy. The conference was titled “ORGONE ENERGY IN ACTION”. Speakers were invited from different parts of the world. Considering the multinational composure of the speakers, the conference could be classified as international orgonomy conference. The conference began with Dr. Cony Huthsteiner’s introduction and
Dr. Simonian provided the opening speech.
Dr. Simonian’s speech was entitled “The Theory of Orgone Therapy and Beyond”. Dr. Simonian discussed the theory upon which orgone therapy is based on, as well as the effect of orgonomy in sociology, biophysics, medicine, psychology and psychiatry.
Mr. Michael Mannion spoke next. Mannion’s speech was entitled “Orgone Energy, Demonstrable, Measurable and Usable”. Under this topic, Mr. Mannion provided documentations and interesting data regarding the treatment of different medical conditions, most importantly, the healing of retinal macular degeneration by using an orgone energy device. Mr. Michael Mannion also delivered the closing lecture the next day under the topic of “The medical and scientific legacy of Wilhem Reich, proof of concept”. Mr. Mannion’s closing lecture was emotionally touching.
Professor Jorgos Kavouras, MD. was the next speaker. Professor Dr.Kavouras is a very effective speaker who is able to connect with the audience easily. His first lecture on Saturday May 24, was entitled “Experiences with and Practice of Physical Orgone Therapy”. During this speech, he talked about his experiences and the significant healing effects that he has obtained by using orgone energy devices. His second speech was entitled “Nature, Orgone Energy and Health”
which was also very interesting and moving.
Mr. Roberto Maglione, MSc, followed Professor Dr. Kavouras. His speech was entitled, “What is orgone energy, it’s relation to other forms of energies”. During this speech Mr. Maglione brought up the concept of Ether and discussed the fact that this concept was agreed upon and was accepted until Einstein declared that this concept is inaccurate and space is empty. However, considering the fact that all along throughout the history scientists and philosophers have accepted the concept of Ether, Einstein’s decline of this theory is questionable. Mr. Maglione also spoke on the next day, Sunday May 25, under the title of old and new methodology of measurement of orgone energy with the examples. His lecture during the second day was extensive and provided numerous examples and instruments that is able to produce such data.
Dr. Armando Vecchietti was the next speaker, who spoke about the formation of cancer cells and orgonomic prospective of early cancer diagnosis. His speech was in Italian but the speech was energetic and was translated by Mr. Emilio De Simone. It was pleasure to hear him speak in Italian with such an energy that was also, contiguous and energizing the audience.

At the end of the sessions, a pannel discussion was held on Sunday May 25, and the audience had an opportunity to ask questions and the speakers were able to respond including those who were talking virtually. The venue of the conference provided a specious and relaxed environment with pine trees. Mr. Leon Southgate also wrote an article entitled “Reflections on the Orgone Conference”. He described the environment and his experience as :
“What a fantastic time I had , so many really special people and fabulous villa on a hillside to experience it all in. There was huge pine trees and a golf course below, listen to the birds from the comfort of your outdoor patio double orgone accumulator! Nice.”
The audience as well as speakers had an opportunity to mingle and related to each other and exchange ideas. They were able to enjoy a relaxed environment and enjoy intellectual contact with each other. This conference also, provided opportunity for us to plan for the future and discuss the possibilities of future activities. The next provisional international orgonomy conference will take place in Italy under the directorship of Roberto Maglione.
The conference speeches and sessions were video taped and will be published one at a time in the “Journal of Psychiatric Orgone Therapy” as well as available on the “YouTube”. We will try to make both the video presentation as well as the transcript of the lectures available for the readers and hope this will have a snowball affect in further promoting introduction of orgonomy.
The few bad poems which occasionally are created during abstinence are of no great interest.
