What we know about tachyon energy, part 1: From the zero point to the electron

Imagine standing knee-deep in the sea and scooping up a little water in your cupped hands. What you are holding is still the sea. It has the same salt, the same temperature, the same make-up. The only difference is that it is no longer boundless. It has an edge, you can carry it up the beach and look at it closely. This ordinary picture of a drop and an ocean is the one David Wagner and Gabriel Cousens reach for when they explain where, in their view, tachyon energy comes from.

This series of four articles walks through their theory step by step. It draws on the book the two of them wrote together, published in Czech as Energie tachyonu (the original English title is Tachyon Energy: A New Paradigm in Holistic Healing), and on a handbook by Dr Andreas Jell, Tachyon, klíč ke zdraví (Tachyon, the key to health). In physics a tachyon is a hypothetical particle that nobody has measured so far, so everything that follows is made of the ideas and conclusions of these authors, who have spent years researching the tachyon in their own way. If you would first like to know how physicists see the tachyon, have a look at the article on the physics of tachyons.

Zero-point energy

Quantum physics talks about an energy that fills the whole universe, even in places where we would expect complete emptiness. It calls this zero-point energy. Wagner and Cousens describe it in their own particular way. In their book it has no shape or form, it is everywhere at once and it moves faster than light. They credit it with infinite intelligence and say that it carries within it everything needed for a perfect form to come into being, which means matter shaped the way we know it. Such energy, they write, has no frequency, does not spin, does not vibrate and is not affected by gravity.

The authors describe tachyon energy in almost the same words. It, too, is present everywhere, it is unlimited and it holds the full potential for creating perfect forms in the universe. It does not spin, vibrate or oscillate either, and gravity has no hold on it, exactly as with zero-point energy. So where is the difference? According to Wagner, it lies in one single thing: tachyon energy already has a form.

A drop from the ocean

This is where we go back to the sea. Picture an ocean with no end, holding an infinite number of drops, yet with no shape as a whole, just like zero-point energy. When you lift a single drop out of it, that drop contains everything the ocean contains. The only thing that sets it apart is that it now has a shape. In the same way, say the authors, tachyon energy carries everything that exists in zero-point energy, only in a form that has already taken shape.

Wagner and Cousens call this transition, the moment when formless zero-point energy condenses into the tachyon, the beginning of the energy continuum. In their account it is a stream that is directly responsible for every form on our planet, from a pebble to a human being.

How the tachyon meets a particle

The authors explain the next step in this continuum with simplified ideas borrowed from physics. As an example they take the way tachyon energy acts on particles that the book places in the lepton family.

The first particle in their account is the pion. It exists below the speed of light and has a precise orbit that can be calculated mathematically. Around this orbit, according to Wagner, lies what he calls subtle organising energy fields, or SOEFs for short (Subtle Organizing Energy Fields in the original). These fields sit just below the speed of light and, in the authors' words, have one single task: to turn tachyon energy into the frequencies a given form needs in order to come into being, organise itself and stay in its perfect shape.

A comparison with a radio helps here. At any moment the air around us is full of stations, yet the receiver picks up only the one it is tuned to. Every form, in the authors' view, is made up of many different frequencies, and the SOEF turns the tachyon into exactly the one that the form needs at that moment. In our example it is the frequency that keeps the pion in its orbit.

Then something begins that Wagner describes as a chain of transformations. The pion's SOEF, sitting just below the speed of light, meets the tachyon, which is faster than light. When it turns the tachyon into the pion's frequency, the pion, according to the authors, changes straight away into a muon. The new muon has an orbit ten times larger than the pion had. The muon's SOEF also lies just below the speed of light, and when it meets the tachyon the orbit grows once more and the muon becomes an electron. The book gives the electron an orbit 207 times larger than the muon's.

That is not where the process stops. According to Wagner and Cousens, the SOEF keeps turning the tachyon into the frequencies required, further and further along the whole energy continuum, until a finished form appears, whether that is a human being or anything else we know. If you would like to see how the SOEFs link up with the idea of auric layers and chakras, the article on the holistic balancing system covers exactly that.

The tachyon as the link

From all this the authors conclude that tachyon energy connects the formless with what has form. In their view it plays the main part in a stream that flows from endless formlessness all the way to perfect form, and it is precisely this stream that they call the energy continuum.

There is one more detail that matters. Every form in our universe is slower than light, and the SOEFs, too, cannot cross the speed of light, according to the authors. Wagner considers this essential. Ours is a world of forms, and the only way it can connect with formless zero-point energy, he says, runs through the tachyon. So in their understanding tachyon energy has everything it needs to build an energy continuum in any individual form of life.

David Wagner builds his products on this very idea. According to the manufacturer, materials such as silica or glass go through a process he calls tachyonization, after which they are meant to work as an antenna for this energy. The easiest way to picture it is the 7.5 cm silica disk, which is usually the first thing people come across when they discover Tachyon. You can see the rest of the range on the products page.

In part two we move from particles to nature. There Wagner and Cousens describe what they believe happens when the energy continuum gets blocked somewhere along the way, and why they give wild animals as their example.
