Marcel J. Vogel

 

         Marcel Joseph Vogel (1917 - 1991) was a research scientist for IBM’s San Jose facility for 27 years. He received numerous patents for his inventions during this time. Among these was the magnetic coating for the 24” hard disc drive systems still in use. His areas of expertise were phosphor technology, liquid crystal systems, luminescence and magnetics.

         In the 1970’s Marcel did pioneering work in man-plant communication experiments. This led him to the study of quartz crystals and the creation of a faceted crystal that is now known as the Vogel-cut® crystal. The Vogel-cut®  crystal is an instrument that serves to store, amplify, convert, and cohere subtle energies.

         Marcel’s research into the therapeutic application of quartz crystals led him to the investigation of the relationship between crystals and water. He discovered that he could structure water by spinning it around a tuned crystal, altering many of the characteristics of the water and converting it into an information storage system. 

 Introduction

          This article presents an overview of the work of Marcel Vogel. It is not a technical paper, but rather a presentation of possibilities as demonstrated in the life and work of one man. Marcel spent the last 17 years of his life doing pioneering research into the relationship between quartz crystals and water. In retrospect it seems that his entire life brought him to this work. In 1984, after almost 27 years as an IBM senior research scientist, Marcel retired and created his own laboratory, Psychic Research, Inc. The lab was dedicated to the study of subtle forces and energies that radiate from the body of living forms. It was his intent to quantify these forces and build a systematic language of identification for these energies which have most often been labeled and dismissed as “metaphysical”. Among his projects were:

1)   - the structuring of water for purification purposes 
2)  - the structuring of wines to rapidly age them 
3)  - the measurement of energy fields around a crystal 
4)  - the therapeutic application of crystals and crystal devices 

      When visiting his laboratory in San Jose, California, one would find some rather sophisticated scientific equipment inside of what seemed to be a rather ordinary industrial and office complex. In one room there was an electron scanning microscope. Another room was virtually filled with a Zeiss Ultraphot microscope. It had over two hundred accompanying objectives and many applications – dark field, light field, interference microscopy, the use of a contrasting chamber and polarized light microscopy. All of this was attached to a camera, computer, and video display system. The Zeiss, which Marcel assembled during his 27 years at IBM, was used to detect (among other things) magnetic defects and errors. This was more than $500,000. worth of equipment donated by IBM to Marcel at the time of his retirement.

       In another room of the laboratory was a Cary Model 15 spectrophotometer and other incidental equipment. Some was donated by the Stanford Research Institute while others were obtained through grants from the Arthritis Foundation. 


         In yet another room one could find a radionic instrument known as the Omega 5.  This device was used to study the fields seemingly undetectable by the otherwise impressive standard scientific equipment. 

  

Ronald Carson (Rumi Da)

                                                                 
         Ronald Carson (Rumi Da) is a spiritual friend and mentor, a guide whose work is to be a friend to those who tread the path of Awakening and seek to be of service in the process.  He is an authority on the use of quartz crystals,  having studied with  teachers from  a variety of backgrounds ranging from the scientific to the spiritual and shamanic.  Rumi has trained as an addictions counselor, massage  therapist, and  professional rebirther.  He is a graduate instructor of the School of Hatha and Raja Yoga of Toronto, Canada, and has participated in informal training in Gestalt,  Transactional Analysis, Bio-energetics, Neuro-Linguistic Programming, and Spirit Releasement® Therapy.  He is also a member of the Association to Advance Ethical Hypnosis and the Sound Healers Association. In 1979 he was initiated into sannyas by Osho Rajneesh and given the name Swami Anand Rumi Da.
 
         In 1981 he was given the Dharma name of Venerable Karma Tigme Tashi by His Holiness Kalu Rinpoche and in 2002 Khenpo Palden Sherab Rinpoche and Khenpo Twewang Dongyal Rinpoche gave him the name Pema Lhasung upon his reconfirming his refuge dedication.  Rumi has a broad understanding of Theosophy and the teachings of the Tibetan Master Djwal Khul as presented through Alice Bailey and Janet McClure. He is also a Reiki Master/Teacher in both the Usui and Karuna systems of Reiki.  Rumi Da is also a student of Trika Shaivism as revealed by Swami Lakshmanjoo.

         He has traveled extensively throughout the United  States,  Canada, Europe, and South East Asia offering teaching to a wide variety of individuals.  He is a teacher and consultant for the School of Traditional Ayurveda and Allied Disciplines in San Vito, Italy. To experience his lectures and seminars is to be accessed to the energies of Love and Humor as well as to a broad spectrum of knowing, expertise, and understanding.  Rumi Da brings both  Eastern and Western mystery traditions into up-to-date, practical, and  interesting presentations. 
         He is  the author of Lifestream Crystal Energywork, Vogel-cut Crystals, numerous articles for a variety of publications, and  has in preparation Crystals, Love, and The Matrix of Consciousness. Rumi has conducted workshops with friend and mentor Dr. Marcel Vogel with whom he acquired his fundamental training and knowledge of the use of quartz crystals. 

Of him,  Marcel said:

   “I see in Rumi Da a man who is capable of carrying on the teaching in a lovable, meaningful manner.  This teaching is to know Self in a deeper, more meaningful way and to release the attachments to the past in a loving manner.
   “Rumi Da now treads the path of  Enlightenment and the unfolding of the Soul descending more fully into matter.  Rumi has the training, he has the crystals, and you can come to him... and he will have other people that he will train and this type of training can be passed on to others.”

         Shortly before his death in 1991, Dr. Vogel asked Rumi Da to continue the work with crystals and specifically to offer teachings to those individuals interested in this form of service: “I ask that you carry on this work as best you can and maintain the standards we have striven to achieve over the years. I have given you the heart of my work and I know you will continue with wisdom and love.”
   To this purpose we continue the teaching on crystals and the exclusive authorized production of the authentic Vogel-cut crystals. Rumi Da has also trained in the use of crystals with Ross Andaloro, DaEl Walker and Dhyani Ywahoo.

The human crystal

       

        A physical body is and has its essential form in the bony structure. An energy analog exists around the body maintaining the balance and total functioning of the physical form.

        This energy field exists as a systematic array of oscillating points of energy which have a layered structure and a definite symmetry. These statements all embody a definition of a normal crystal in material form. The patterning and positioning of these energy points, called nadis, result from breath and its control, including the patterning of thought into these structures, and, above all, the thinking of oneself in wholistic form as a spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical being. The original work delineating these types of structures was done by the team of George and Marjorie De La Warr, using a rubbing plate to delineate these patterns in space. A further extension of this work was a thought photography camera developed by George De La Warr. He captured on photographic film an image of these nadis, showing some of them in relation to the positioning of the body of an individual. These fields surrounding the body are very sensitive to weak magnetic fields, a half gauss to 100 gauss. They can be expanded and contracted by the north and south pole of a bar magnet held in opposition to the body. These fields are drawn in with inhalation and released with exhalation.

        If we become attached to a thought process which has a high emotional content, that pattern of thought will be locked into this energetic pattern which surrounds us, and the physical body will manifest itself in a distortion of the form, i.e.: slumping of the shoulder, a shortening of the leg, a twisting of the muscles of the eye or mouth. If continued for an extended period of time, these will become chronic and locked into the body.

        One of the principles of healing with a double terminated healing crystal is to break up these patterns with breath and the energy supplied through the crystal to that normal crystallographic pattern and structure. It is re-assumed and locked into place with the intention of the party being given the treatment to continue to exist in this current state of health and well being. A severe blow, a sudden shock, or sound will cause a displacement of this subtle body, causing a loss of body control resulting in collapse and at times a loss of consciousness. A knowledge of this information makes it possible to rapidly assist as individuals return to consciousness. Place your free hand on the solar plexus and the crystal hand on the heart chakra. Release your breath in a sudden pulse while focusing on the body. Create an image of bringing the etheric field back into the physical body and then slowly draw your breath in. Hold the breath for four to five seconds, then suddenly pull your hands away. Done properly, an unconscious person will come back to active consciousness.

        In the case of strokes or excessive pressure from a tumor, this will not be successful. It requires a great degree and extension of therapy which is not covered here.

        We repeat that a person is existing  both in and out of their body. In successfully maintaining this level of existence, knowledge and love are necessary. This information is the primary object of the teaching we are giving.

The power of love

        

        When you generate an act of lovingness to your body, a field is created. This field is transferred by an act of will from the initiator to the recipient. We can look on love as glue that holds matter in form. It has in it the element of consciousness and contains the program for the total well being of an individual. This was fully understood and manifested by Jesus Christ. A question was given to Him as to what was the primary law. He answered, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength and with your mind, and your neighbor as yourself." (Luke 10, 25. New American Bible).

        In studying and meditating on the statements of Christ, we have a practical guideline for the conduct of our life. We must develop the art and science of knowing ourselves. From this knowledge, we develop an awareness of love and self. In turn, we must emit and distribute this love to others without distinction or limitation. This is the whole study or life itself. To give love, we empty self into a recipient. In that act of emptying this force, we, in turn, are filled with the love of God. So we, in loving, receive infinite love from God, the source of all energy. If we limit the act of loving, this limits us as well.

        Working in a loving way with crystals facilitates the transfer of this charge, generated by mind. In this way it is totally harmless. The crystal will amplify the weak field we first generate. As we release this field with intention and breath, the field moves like a laser into the energy, or subtle body, of the recipient. They, in turn, can draw this energy into their body. This acts with their energy to bring their body into balance and form. When I love you, that act opens us both to a Divine illumination. We can see beyond the body into the soul of this individual. We feel with us the beauty that resides in the body, mind, and soul of an individual with whom we are becoming one. As we evolve in the practice of becoming loving individuals, we become conscious of the power and force that resides within each of us. When we love another person, a magnetic like force is generated between the two individuals. They are drawn together, as if pulled by this magnetic like field. It is instinctive to embrace to bring the two bodies together as one.

        In the work we are doing in the laboratory, we are striving to measure this force in water. It is our continuing effort to understand what these forces are and how they operate in nature. We are doing this by observing the structuring of water. This is accomplished by charging a crystal with thought and love, transferring this charge by a resonance process from the crystal to water which is being spun around the crystal in a clockwise direction. We complete this process by studying the water for change in pH, conductivity, and its ultra violet spectra changes.
