ל'חוויה דתית' על-טבעית.
באופן בסיסי, עד כדי כך פשוטים הם

אנושי כזה החושש מהחיים."_*

,Wilhelm Reich was born in Austria on March 24, 1897
the son of a prosperous farmer. His early years were spent in
a rural atmosphere close to animals and natural phenomena and
this may well have determined his later interest in biology and
natural science. After his service in the First World War, he
entered the Medical School of the University of Vienna from which
he was graduated in 1922. He met Freud in 1920 and soon became
a prominent participant in the early psychoanalytic and mental-health
,movements. Freud's idea of a psychic energy, his LIBIDO theory
provided the stimulus for Reich's clinical and experimental
studies in the exact nature of this energy, which was most vividly
expressed in the orgasm function. These studies led eventually
to the discovery of the life energy to which he gave the name
.ORGONE
Forced to flee Nazi Germany in 1933, Reich pursued
his work in Scandinavia until September, 1939, when he moved
to the United States and established his laboratory in Forest
.Hills, New York. He later transferred it to Rangeley, Maine
In 1954, the Federal Food and Drug Administration filled a complaint
for an injunction against him, attacking specifically and clearly
designed to discredit his discovery of orgone energy. He refused
to be forced into court as a "defendant" in matters of basic
.natural research and a Decree of Injunction was issued ON DEFAULT
He was subsequently accused of criminal contempt in disobeying
this injunction, and following a jury trial in May, 1956, in
'which his plea was "not guilty", he was sentenced to two years
imprisonment. He died on November 3, 1957, in the Federal Penitentiary
.at Lewisburg, Pennsylvania
