Interview - P.A. Straubinger, Austrian film journalist, on his seriously controversial Documentary, "In the Beginning There was Light."

Listen Now to P.A. Straubinger 

As a film journalist for the Austrian Broadcasting Corporation, Peter Arthur Straubinger had covered many interesting stories, but none caught his personal attention like that of people who claimed that they did not need  or have a desire to consume food anymore, our cherished molecules of mammalian nutrition. WTF?

 

His documentary takes us into this rarefied world of people who do not eat (or at least very very very little) and explores how this might be possible.  According to his research  molecule-based energy from food only accounts for about 77% of human energy, leaving the generation of the rest a mystery.

  

Could that extra human energy be from other sources of power, like the Sun, or perhaps from other peope or Nature?  Could this mysterious energy source be what many through the ages have called various names like Qi Qong, Orgone, Elan Vitale, or the Life Force? How might it work?

Over five years in the making, we discuss with the filmmaker these questions, as well as the swirling controversy his film has generated in the sceptics circles.  

Many thanks to Wendy Sue Noah for helping to make this interview possible.
