This blog deals with issues of Energy and fuel, within the context of likely healing catastrophies.
Energy Self Sufficiency - Off-grid?
- What happens to your safety and comfort when the mains electricity is off for a prolonged period, perhaps for a very long time?
- Is your wood burning stove dependent on an electric pump fed from the electricity grid?
Renewable Energy
It is hoped to offer practical solutions, based on experience at Damanhur and best practice else where, eg at the Centre for Advanced Technology in Wales, UK.
New Energy
But will existing technology be enough, or do we need New Energy based on New Science that goes beyond the Second Law of Thermodynamics?

Laws of Thermodynamics
These remain valid for 3-d reality, EXCEPT for living systems which create order (or complexity).
They are:
Claimed exceptions to these laws have been around for centuries and are known as Perpetual Motion Machines, but none has yet stood the test of time
EXCEPT that:
Energy Storage
The Gotcha in most schemes for alternative energy generation and distribution is the need for storage:
People have been working on improved batteries for generations, and perhaps there hase been a two fold improvement over simple car batteries. Prospects are good, eg for hydrogen fuel cells for storage, but the problem remains on a larger scale.
Another example is the generation of methane from bio mass, which cam be done, but you really need to be able to compress the gas and store it in specialised high pressure containers - illegal in Italy and some other countries.
New Energy
Well, so much for the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
It turns out with a modicum of research on the Internet that there is a well established scientific field of “New Energy”, going back to the 1980’s. There are different flavours, to be described later, and what looks like solid scientific proof (although not accepted as such by “mainstream” science.)
There are three alternative approaches you can take:
Traditional Scientists
Traditional scientists are those who are sticking to the traditional interpretation of the Second Law of Thermodynamics, in spite of the evidence to the contrary.
The New Science
Many Scientists are applying the Scientific Method to the new discoveries, and wish to remain within the paradim of the Scientific Method as such with repeatable experiments, measurable outcomes, peer review etc
Properly applied this has thrown up a wealth of scientific evidence of machines producing energy at close to zero cost.
These can be classified according to the Infinite Energy Magazine FAQ as:
Seee also the New Energy Times magazine FAQ.
There are a multiple theoretical models, often contradictory, attempting to explain these phenomena objectively.
There is a thread of practical and mathematical theory behind Etheric Physics, from Tesla through William Reich and more recently Beardon. This has long been taboo to traditional science.
The Mystical Approach
Others take a more mystical approach, based on channelled information and maybe direct contact with the “Akashic Records”.
These purport to show how “New Electricity” was the basis of the Atlantean civilisation, and indeed its misuse was said to have triggered the collapse of Atlantis.
An example is the Matthew Lewin material, comprising hundreds of channelled pages. Many are happy with channelled information provided the source can be checked out subjectively using intuition or other inner guidance.
Resolution
Funnily enough there is a substantial overlap between the New Scientists and the Mystics.
The implications of the New Energy as described in the above FQA for domestic, low scale local sources compatible with current appliances but obviating the need for the National Grid are almost word for word the same as in the Matthew Lewin material.
In this respect the new scientists are catching up on old esoteric knowledge, but they are ahead on provable repeatable machines that work.
Mostly these three groups do not talk to each other.
And where might Damanhur fit in?
Ready Yet?
Question:
Are there now any New Energy devices on the market that generate electricity or produce heat and cooling?
New Energy Times (LENR) Magazine FAQ
(last updated 2009)
The LENR Cold Fusion effect is real and proven, but it is not ready to use because the science is still not sufficiently-well understood.
While the research community knows a great deal about the related phenomena, it still does not know the factors necessary to bring it forward to a viable technology.
Infinite Energy Magazine FAQ
Answering the same question re commercial availability the Infinite Energy Magazine FAQ response is “No, not as of January 2003”.
Although their magazine publications are up to data (May / June 2011).
