Vivaxis in The Stelle Group
[Editor’s note: Vivaxis,
as discussed in this paper, bears no resemblance to the art of body-dowsing
(your own), as developed by Frances Maude Nixon (1910-1984). Ms. Nixon’s
discoveries are concerned with a unique energy flow that connects an
individual’s Vital (Etheric) Body with that of their physical body, at the
time of birth, and the Etheric Plane constructs that comprise the framework
of the our planet. Each person’s circuit has a unique frequency. It should be
noted that is a separate phenomenon from the Golden Cord as described in
esoteric literature. The Vivaxis connection can be harmed or distorted by
chemicals, electromagnetic fields, including lightning and building
electrical distribution systems, and hypnotism. Disturbances to the Vivaxis
can manifest as any form of illness. Ms. Nixon’s practice was primarily
concerned with restoring balance to the Vivaxis connection.
Original it was
presented to the members of The Stelle Group as a practice to learn to
recognize the subtle responses of the human body to foods, chemicals, and other
things in a person’s environment. Once a practitioner learned to recognize
their body’s “yes/no” responses in the classroom, it was an easy matter to extend
their ability to “test” foodstuff and environmental factors, thereby learning
to avoid certain things and embrace others, especially in regard to personal
nutrition. Vivaxis is generally in a category which includes disciplines such
as Tai Chi, Mari El, advanced martial arts training, etc.
However, the system
introduced by Don Marrow, falsely attributed to advanced Vivaxis training,
was little more than Mind Control, Remote Viewing, psychic manipulation, etc.
And that is where this story begins…]
Vivaxis first became an influence in The
Stelle Group in 1981 through Mr. Don Morrow, Malcolm Carnahan’s former
supervisor when Malcolm worked for HUD in Chicago. Morrow had been a Colonel in U.S.
Army Intelligence in Southeast Asia at a time when the CIA was very
interested in investigating Oriental psychic methods of
intelligence-gathering and surveillance such as reputedly were being used by
the Russians. Morrow excited Malcolm’s enthusiasm in Vivaxis’ dowsing
techniques for use in identifying elements and diseases, and Don asked
Malcolm to allow him to teach Vivaxis to Stelle participants. This was begun
at the Continuum House, and Malcolm began training to become a Vivaxis
teacher.
Malcolm asked Richard to become a student
free of tuition to help check out the methods and theory of Vivaxis so
Richard could give his official approval. The lessons in the beginners’
course consisted of developing sensitivity to the etheric signatures of
various elements which are present in a continuous invisible beam of these
etheric vibrations. This beam encircles the planet in a serpentine pattern
about 16 feet apart vertically and horizontally through the atmosphere at the
Earth’s surface. Richard saw no danger in dowsing these natural phenomena,
and he felt it was useful for Stelle members to learn to dowse. It became
apparent that Vivaxis students were truly learning to identify the etheric
signatures because they were able to agree on the location of such beams
penetrating walls and the ground when independently tested.
When Malcolm moved to Dallas, he asked The Stelle Group Board of
Trustees for approval to supplement his income as a co-teacher of Vivaxis
with Don Morrow. Approval was given, and classes were thereupon conducted at
Malcolm’s home. Malcolm spent much of his time in his TSG office practicing
Vivaxis. Richard was again invited to be a guest student, and he attended a
class with other Stelle and Adelphi members. Meanwhile, Don was complaining of
dire interference by a woman from whom he had taken advanced Vivaxis lessons
in Canada—a
Fran Nixon. Morrow told us that she was very jealous of him because Don was
more competent at Vivaxis and was moving beyond her knowledge since he was
experimenting with advanced techniques on his own. Don said that she was
trying to kill him psychically and that he was having to devote much effort
to defend himself and do psychic battle with her. He later announced that he
had won and Fran was dead. At a subsequent class he was asked if there was
similarity between Vivaxis and witchcraft. His reply was that he had read a
book on witchcraft and that it appeared to him that witchcraft is elementary
Vivaxis.
Don introduced a more advanced class in Dallas to what he called
the “Love Beam,” which was touted to induce health-giving vibrations in a
person who faces a specific direction while standing on a spot where that
beam emerges from the ground or floor. Apparently this name is a misnomer,
because some students who practiced standing on the Love Beam suffered mental
confusion and rapidly deteriorating health. Those who complained of ill
effects were told to double their time on the beam, but this resulted in
worsening conditions. Richard was one of these, and he asked one of his
Teachers about this practice when he was soon after contacted by one. Richard
reported that his Teacher informed him that the so-called Love Beam has no
association with love but rather is a channel that has been used by sorcerers
for millennia to communicate with one another. Richard told us his Teacher
said that exposing oneself to the Love Beam breached one’s protection from
the Brotherhoods. People who stopped the “Love Beam” exercises recovered
immediately.
One of the other exercises the Dallas class was taught
by Don and Malcolm involved diagnosing diseases by their specific etheric
vibrations in anyone at any distance and presumably being able to cure those
diseases at a distance by Vivaxis. The class was also being taught that
psychic connections between people could be dowsed, and that all the past
actions and thoughts of a person could be dowsed by asking the right
questions, and that all lies a person may have told could be determined by
dowsing the Akashic Record. By this time, Richard already had been objecting
to the direction Vivaxis was being taken. Attempts at such divination were
counter to the Brotherhoods’ teachings and warnings, since these are
activities in which spirit entities can interfere so as to influence the
answers. Experiments that Richard and other students conducted indicated
that the answers obtained in these probings of other persons’ lives were
mostly determined by the preconceptions of the questioner. Ethical concern
about attempts at such secret probings into the lives of people was also
brought into question. Richard complained openly and also privately to Don
about these matters, and he quit the class in protest; but the exercises
continued to be taught.
Don Morrow had praised Richard’s mental
tone as the highest he could find, and Don had long suggested to his students
that Richard be tuned into by them to use as their standard to check their
own tone. Even by Vivaxis rules, this would constitute a drain on Richard.
Don pointed out that the “On Becoming an Initiate” recordings Richard
had made were beneficial to listen to because of the soothing timbre of
Richard’s voice and his positive vibrational projection. Don had pointed out
that Richard’s home and peach tree were free of lead and the other pollutants
that he dowsed everywhere else in Dallas.
But after Richard objected to the sorcerous kinds of things being added to
the Vivaxis courses, Don and Malcolm had only bad things to say about Richard
and claimed he had become mentally unbalanced. The other students were asked
to scan Richard whenever they could to determine if he was “off his beam” in
spite of the class having earlier been instructed that whenever you think of
another person, he or she is thrown off their natural beam. Some students
objected to this as being harassment of Richard and voiced their ethical
concerns.
Some time later, Don Morrow came up with exciting
news that he had dowsed the identity of the “Brotherhood Guides” of three TSG
members in his classes. Don told the three how it is possible to engage in
communication with these spirit presences by means of Vivaxis dowsing. Beder
Wood was one of the students Don approached with the offer to be introduced
to his “guide,” but Beder flatly refused to have anything to do with it.
However, Don successfully introduced his co-teacher, Malcolm, and a woman
student in Dallas
to their respective “Brothers.” In spite of all the warnings passed along by
Brotherhood teachings against forming an alliance with spirits (since
continuing influence from such connections with spirits cannot be broken, and
real Brothers never operate that way), these two people let themselves be
swept along by Don into becoming dominated by a spirit. The two recipients of
this dubious gift described their experiences at a joint meeting of all the
members of TSG and TAO in the Summer of 1986, and they both mentioned that
they became uncomfortable after awhile and ceased to be the initiators of
subsequent communications with their presumed Brotherhood Guides.
The Vivaxis classes dissipated after the students used
much of their efforts to try to derive gossip items about members and former
members of TSG and TAO through Vivaxis techniques. Since almost all their
findings were questionable and almost invariably erroneous, interest in Vivaxis
simply waned. Hearers of the gossip were simply not interested after awhile.
