raum & zeit 43/89: the SAFE congress at Einsiedeln
9 September 2026
"SAFE-Kongreß: Metaphysik in Einsiedeln", notes from a congress, by Hans-Joachim Ehlers, Munich. raum & zeit issue 43, 1989, pages 60 to 64. The scan the old site carried: the issue and the article.
The first international congress for free energy, organised by SAFE, the Schweizerische Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Freie Energie, at Einsiedeln in Switzerland at the end of October 1989. Ehlers, who edited raum & zeit, reports eight hundred participants from sixteen nations over two days, and writes that the magazine would publish the most important findings from the meeting one by one.
His theme is the spirit of the thing rather than the engineering: Einsiedeln was chosen, he notes, as the birthplace of Paracelsus, who brought the whole of body, soul and spirit into medicine and was chased across Europe for it. Stan Meyer and John Searl are among the names set in the margins of the report.
Meyer's lecture at that congress survives on tape, and the archive has transcribed it: part one and part two. The host's introduction on the tape says he had followed Meyer's press releases for some years and wrote to him personally when asked to invite American participants, which is the invitation Ehlers's report is the other half of.
This is the earliest of the four Meyer items in the German edition, and it is the reason the later ones exist: it is where the magazine's readership met the water fuel cell. The Ola Deräker article of 1991 looks back on the coverage as "raum&zeit Nr. 43, 44 und 48".
