Man, intermediate between the Microcosm and the Macrocosm, shows similarity to the atomic structure in the
expansion and contraction of his muscles, in his rhythmic breathing to sustain life, and his shell-like fields of
vibration surrounding the visible body.
Dr. Cecil Bowiby of Los Angeles, California, recently reported that he has succeeded in photographing four
distinct fields of vibration around the human body which are in various colors invisible to the naked eye. They
are, respectively, about one-half inch; six inches; three feet; and nine feet and over from the skin. He believes
the fourth field is the strongest, that is, most extensive when persons radiate strong feelings, especially those
of love and peace.
Now let us consider our own Solar System:
In _One Two Three . . . Infinity_, Dr. George Gamow says: "The picture of an atom began to look more like a
miniature solar system with an atomic nucleus for the sun, and electrons for planets. The analogy with the
planetary system can be further strengthened by these facts: the atomic nucleus contains 99.97 per cent of the
total atomic mass as compared with 99.87 per cent of the solar system concentrated in the sun, and the
distances between the planetary electrons exceed their diameters by about the same factor (several thousand
times) which we find when comparing interplanetary distances with the diameters of the planets. The more
important analogy lies, however, in the fact that the electric attraction-forces between the atomic nucleus and
the electrons obey the same mathematical law of inverse square (that is, the forces are inversely proportionate
to the square of the distance between two bodies) as the gravity forces acting between the sun and the planets.
This makes the electrons describe the circular and elliptic trajectories around the nucleus, similar to those
along which the planets and comets move in the solar system."
However, physicists have stressed the fact that "an atom differs from the solar system by the fact that it is not
gravitation that makes electrons go round the nucleus, but electricity." (H. N. Russell). But what difference
does it make, since gravity and electricity are both manifestations of electromagnetism! This is an example of
scientists calling effect, cause . . . if they looked beyond gravitational and electrical phenomena they would
find the cause of both, which is electro-magnetism.
Another difference was also discovered. An electron in an atom, on absorbing the energy of a photon (light),
jumps to another orbit, and again to another when it emits light and releases the energy of a photon. Because
of this phenomenon, comparison with the solar system did not seem valid. A critic said: "We do not read in
the morning newspapers that Mars leaped to the orbit of Saturn, or Saturn to the orbit of Mars." This is true,
we do not read it in the newspapers, but the atom with its system of electrons rotating around the central
nucleus resembles the planetary system. In considering the atom, the jumping of electrons from one orbit to
another, when hit by the energy of a photon, takes place many times a second, whereas in accord with the
vastness of the solar system, a similar phenomenon occurs there once in thousands of years. Our own Solar
System has experienced displacements in its planetary members over the centuries and this is similar to the
"orbit jumping" of an electron.
The circular motion of an electron around the nucleus of an atom, or a planet around the sun of a solar system,
gives rise to an intensive electro-magnetic radiation, and in this action they are identical. The circular motion
referred to is an effect of intersecting lines of force.
Now let us consider the Galactic System:
Toward the center of the Galactic System is found the nuclear region which corresponds to the sun of a solar
system and the nucleus of an atom. The many solar systems revolving about the nucleus region of a galaxy
correspond to planets revolving about a sun and electrons revolving about an atomic nucleus.
At present astronomers are wondering whether magnetic fields exist in the galaxy. Cosmic radiation suggests
