Analysis Of The Secret Of Life By Georges Lakhovsky

The Lakhovsky effect only happens when the coil (or bracelet) is open and made of copper. Closed loops don’t work.
Georges Lakhovsky published the English version of The Secret of Life at the outbreak of World War II, and it went unnoticed with very little review, but Lakhovsky’s reputation for obtaining dramatic results with his futuristic Multi Wave Oscillator got the world’s attention nonetheless.
By 1941, Lakhovsky emigrated to New York, escaping the Nazi occupation of France. In The Waves that Heal, Mark Clement describes Lakhovsky’s being approached by many people and organizations wanting to capitalize on this MWO therapy. A film featuring real human case studies proved to be both interesting and convincing, and Lakhovsky was approached

Later editions of The Secret of Life detailed many of these cases. What seemed like a remarkable development in the use of the MWO in America faded after Lakhovsky unexpectedly died in New York in 1942.
All his equipment was removed from the hospital, and his patients were told that the MWO therapy was no longer available. Except for a brief trial in New York, Lakhovsky’s work remained completely unknown to the American public. Even the spectacular success of the New York cases were quickly forgotten, a strange fluke of memory in that era’s scheme of things. Hidden hands of those in power were at work again, obliterating all memory of Lakhovsky’s Multi-Wave Oscillator in the United

Then, in 1986, Borderlands compiled a manual called The Lakhovsky Multiple Wave Oscillator Handbook - which was updated and revised again in 1988, 1992, and 1994. The Handbook includes the compilation of informative articles by many authoritative MWO researchers, including articles by Lakhovsky himself, translated into English.
The MWO produces a wide range of high-frequency pulsed signals which radiate energy into the patient via 2 resonators, one acting as a transmitter and the other as a receiver. The resonator is constructed from a series of round open-ended copper tubes terminating with sphere-shaped knobs.
The rings of copper tubes nest inside each other but don’t touch. In Lakhovsky’s original design, the assembly is held in place with silk thread, and each ring has an open-ended terminator 180 degrees opposite its adjacent ring. The instrument generates a broad spectrum of high frequencies together with static high voltage charges that are applied to the resonators via spark gaps (spaces between electrical terminals across which discharges pass.)
(These high voltages cause a corona discharge around the perimeter of the outer resonator ring which Nikola Tesla referred to as an “electric brush” and Lakhovsky referred to as

    Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can become a harrowing mental illness that serves as an obstacle to the future, causing its victims to relive their trauma time and time again. In Tim O’Brien’s “Speaking of Courage,” the cyclical nature of PTSD is embodied in symbolism that is used throughout the text to portray Norman’s constant struggle to reconnect with society after serving in the Vietnam War. Norman’s story of isolation demonstrates a universal struggle of war veterans in their quest to reintegrate with the society they fought so hard to protect; this is an especially important message for author and veteran O’Brien to express, as the text was published when PTSD was first professionally recognised as a mental illness. As such, the…

    It is a common misconception that science and literature are opposed. The common belief held is that the two cannot coexist because scientists are too focused on science and authors are too focused on the humanities. However, there is much blending between the two, with many scientists becoming authors and many authors taking an appreciation to science. As evidence, Michael Frayn’s Copenhagen is a perfect example as to how the two can cohabitate the same plane of knowledge and work together in unison to create something more educational and entertaining. Copenhagen is a play written by Michael Frayn that highlights a meeting between two globally known physicists, Niels Bohr and Werner Heisenberg, in Bohr’s house in Copenhagen.…
