Bions

Bions, are transitional forms in the process of the organization of matter from its non-living to its living state and are always found during the decomposition of organic matter. They also form during the destructuring of inorganic matter, under specific conditions of course. Bions of organic or inorganic origin display, when compared to each other, different morphological characteristics, but they share common qualitative traits as regards to pulsation and motility, which point to their living-like functioning. Reich claimed that the long term culture of organic bions, under controlled sterile conditions so that the possibility of outside infection (from air “germs”) is excluded, can lead to the development of protozoa. The “Heraclitus” Laboratory of Microscopic Research is conducting experiments of preparation, microscopic observation and culturing of bions, in order to control Reich’s claims and identify, if possible, the developing protozoa.

The verification of Reich’s scientific hypothesis regarding the bions and their relationship to non-living and living matter dynamically enhances the concept of continuous creation proposed by evolutionary biology and establishes in a substantiated, i.e. scientific, way on the one hand the idea that life is the highest level in the evolution of matter and on the other that creative evolution is still going on as a result of mutations and differentiations of cosmic orgone energy.
