I was re-reading Stewart Swerdlow's Blue Blood, True Blood - Conflict & Creation yesterday. It surprised me when I came to a passage that said that at Montauk, there were observers that were beings from the Antarian star system who were present because they were interested in the programming aspects of sexuality as they related to Wilhelm Reich methods.
Is this the same Wilhelm Reich? |

By Christopher of Information Liberation (www.informationliberation.com)
Listen, Little Man! is a book written by a truly great man named Wilhelm Reich. I first read this book when I got out of high school at the age of 17. Having never read a complete book throughout all of school (I was always quite bright, though I certainly did not take kindly to being forced to do things against my own will) this was the first book I ever read from cover to cover. I have since become an avid reader and I have read this book dozens of times. In fact, I still read it frequently. I strongly believe this is one of the best books ever written, it completely changed my life and helped make me the man I am today. This book changed my life all because of one single thing, the most important thing I have ever done in my life... The book made me look at myself. For once in my life I saw myself as I truly was... I have never been the same since, and at the young age of 21, though I am still living and learning, I can truly say I am free. That is not to say I am completely free, but I am free to be honest with myself. I am free to think for myself without asking "what will my neighbor think of me?" I am free to fully live like I once did as a child, as all children live before they are forced to become "civilized." That is not to say I am free from cooperation and responsibility, I am not insolent. It does mean I am free to go swing on a swing, or to go play in the snow without reservation, and if some "civilized" neighbor disapproves of my motility I know that they only act that way because they are dead inside and cannot stand to see others truly living (because they know deep down they could, and should, be doing it too). Most importantly, I am free to be honest with myself, and with others, and that, my friend, is the foundation of true freedom. For that, I say thank you Wilhelm, thank you for showing me what life and living truly is, thank you for showing me what life is truly about, and thank you for caring about me at a time when I didn't even care about myself. Thank you. Your friend, Christopher Listen Little Man book on scribed.com http://www.scribd.com/doc/3191151/-W...ten-Little-Man |

http://www.scribd.com/doc/3191151/-W...ten-Little-Man YEAH, I understand, and why I referenced the quote, it was intended to go along WITH your post for those who would like a choice in either PURCHASING the book from Amazon or reading it online in its entirety. Amazon only shows a very limited portion of the book. But I get the message, I didn't realize by adding to your post it would also entitle me to your scrutiny. In the future I will refrain myself. |

I think what Seashore was getting at is that, except for the scribd link, the post was basically the same and she, well most of us, know that they have been "cracking down" on posting large portions of text from elsewhere. Perhaps she was just subtly letting you know that much of the text had already been posted and didn't want you to get a bump on the noggin for it.

I looked up Wilhelm Reich on Wikipedia and the article does reference both psychoanalysis and orgone.
A quote from the article: "Later in life, he became a controversial figure who was both adored and condemned. He began to violate some of the key taboos of psychoanalysis, using touch during sessions..." Here's the link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilhelm_Reich |
