“Since it might appear unusual that a bio-psychiatrist should work as an expert in the realm of non-living nature, I believe it will be helpful to give the following summary:My present work began in the realm of psychiatry and psychoanalysis, with natural scientific investigations of the energy at work in human emotions.This led to the discovery of the bio-energy in the living organism, termed organismic orgone energy; and further to the discovery of the same type of a basically physical orgone energy in the atmosphere.Orgonomy is not psychiatry, but the science of biophysics of the emotions, thus also including psychiatry, and physics in the realm of basic cosmic orgone energy.It is not mysticism, but natural scientific, experimental investigation, also of mystical emotions and experiences.Orgone energy is energy before matter (not after matter, as is atomic energy).
