Water is a mysterious substance, yet we take it for granted. It is the most misunderstood and most abused element on Earth. Its chemical formula is H2O but that isn't all there is to it. Water is alive. It is the lifeblood of the Earth. Water has its own living energy, and if water dies, our Earth dies with it. Water makes up 60 to 70% of our bodies. Minerals, proteins, sugars, and other substances dissolve in this water forming colloids, which carry a subtle electrical charge. Thus, water provides the electrical life force in all living things. Even dispersed into a fine mist, water continues to carry this vital life force, maintaining its potency and power. It is literally good to the last drop. Since water is alive, it continuously needs to regenerate itself by dewing in a spiral or vortex motion which we see in the shape of a tornado's funnel.

Water is the most potent in its densest state at a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius. Above or below this magic temperature, water loses its maximum strength and absorbent ability. In its most potent form in forests or mountain streams, water is near 4 degrees Celsius, but, as it heats up, it becomes stagnant and powerless. To be alive, water must be allowed, first, the freedom to flow in its characteristic spiral motion, and second, the freedom to approach its optimal cool temperature, of 4 degrees Celsius. The primary need of water to roll in a 3-dimensional vortex causes rivers to meander in a gentle to-and-fro motion. The water naturally swings to one bank of a river, turns, and moves across to the opposite bank, and then swings around again in a dancing rhythm of constant motion. Within every flowing stream, water constantly circles in small vortices called eddies. Water desires to coil itself up and spin around an invisible internal shaft like a speeding wheel. The same movement is seen in the waves of the ocean, constantly rolling in spiral movements.

This rolling motion causes water to gather electrical force. As water moves across the Earth, it cools itself and increases its internal power. Water stores this potential energy within itself and then gives the energy freely to all-living things. Through this perpetual motion, water constantly exposes its "skin" to the air. Thus it constantly spins around upon itself like a whirling top. Just like a spinster spinning her thread, Mother Nature attempts to twist water into a thread of life, which then becomes a sparkling strand of living electricity. We see this electricity as glimmering threads of light in swift mountain streams, especially on cold moonlit nights. Victor Schauberger an Austrian forester and expert on water, demonstrated how running water has the capacity to excite and illuminate light bulbs using this principle inherent in water.

The centripetal, inward-directed movement of water causes it to become rejuvenated and creates the sucking action evident in a whirlpool. As the water accelerates more toward the center of the vortex, the electrical potential increases to very high levels. This concentrated power within water can become the power of future technology -- the vortex power of water.

The greatest damage that can be done to water is to straighten out its natural meandering. An example is the Rhine River, which was straightened, causing it to flow faster. Erosion resulted. Moreover, the eroded soil became toxic wherever it was deposited and thus could not be used for crop growth. When rivers are 'straightened', the water tends to die. The Danube River was "regulated" and forced to flow along man made channels causing the water to lose its ability to sustain life. In addition, the river level steadily dropped.

A more common way that we destroy water is by pumping it through straight pipes into our homes and offices . When healthy spring water is pumped by conventional centrifugal pumps under pressure, it rapidly loses its energy and electrical potential. It then becomes the breeding ground for microorganisms and bacteria which must be eradicated with toxic chemicals such as chlorine and fluorine. Unfortunately, the unwary American consumes this chemically treated, dead water. Furthermore, American farmers constantly pour tons of devitalized water onto their crops, stunting growth and vitality.

(Schauberger's design for a WOOD pipe, above left, with vanes (Fig.5) attached inside of the pipe, to induce a vortex producing spiral motion.)

Human arrogance causes us to try to conquer Mother Nature rather than to learn form her. Luckily we can learn from her. We can regenerate water by swirling and coiling it in its characteristic spiral motion. It then undergoes a diamagnetic energy transformation and regains its electricity, its good tasted, and its life-giving power.

When water is brought to fields in canals and pipes that allow the water to flow in a natural meandering spiral fashion, crop fields have increased by 30 to 40%. Water thus delivered using the principle of vortex flow has turned salty marshes and sour swamps into productive sweet soils. If we do not make use of this knowledge, pollution will destroy water. Many aquifers and ground waters in America are now polluted. If we destroy water, we destroy ourselves. We must care for water and keep it alive simply because it is nonrenewable. No Life can exist on Earth without clean, healthy water. Therefore it is absolutely essential to keep water alive. Yet our current technology is almost exclusively built on the principle of exploding centrifugal forces which lead towards the destruction of Nature and eventually the death of Earth. The combustion engine in every car, bus, and truck is a perfect example of this principle. This engine is only one side of Nature's law of motion. (article originally published by Jeane Manning - compliments)

The living water:

The other side is the up-building force contained in the principle of implosion ; the centripetal, inward-directed movement which constantly renews life and supports growth. Living water is a constant rolling exchange of gravity and levity. The waves move rapidly, and yet the water remains relatively still. In this paradox is the magic of water and the life that it gives. It is this magic in water that causes its own natural purification. In Stockholm, there is a beautiful example of this process. Sewage treatment plants are located in a park where people walk, play and have picnics. Natures biological systems are at work treating the water. Microorganisms break down the organic matter which remains after the solid, non-biodegradable materials have been removed. A Similar process is to be used to treat the terribly polluted water of Providence, Rhode Island. As a result, 99 to 100% of the toxins are removed. Microorganisms in the roots of reeds in the water break down the organic matter. Sludge is aerated, and over 90% of the solids are reduced. The plants even eliminate some heavy metals by retaining these metals in the reed stalks. Vortex technology can be used to rebuild America's agriculture. The same destructive power of water that is demonstrated in tornadoes and hurricanes can now be harnessed for the service of all humanity. The power inherent in the cyclonic movement of water can become the source of unlimited power in our future technology.

We need to listen to the lesson Mother Nature shows us. If we learn from the natural movement of water, we will be able to save our ailing Earth. In water we can see not only the illness but also the cure if we are willing to learn the lessons Nature offers. The spiral vortex is reflected in every movement of the universe, from the shape of the galaxies, down through storm cloud formations, to the swirl of the human ear, the pumping of the heart, and the tremendous power in atomic and subatomic matter. The science of tomorrow will be based on the principle of life - the principle of implosion and the geometry of the vortex. If we are willing to learn Mother Nature's lesson, water will again be honored as the magic source of life.

The air, the water, and the earth is going to be wasted. The damages can be seen everywhere. Contamination, poisoning, and plundering of the earth's raw-materials, all break down the life-processes and destroy the energy sources. Our forest's are dying. The food that we are eating is being destroyed. The quality of our lives is decreasing. This we can see daily. This is a fact well known to everyone, even to those who are "vampiring" nature and to the scientists who are "thinking one octave to low" regarding natures' way of functioning and do not see the large energy-crises that is emerging.

Living Energies, Biotechnique in practice for the first time:

By Viktor Schauberger (from "Implosion" magazine) and compliments: Callum Coats

The family coat of arms for the von der Schauenburg family was a broken trunk with a savage hedge rose wreathing around. The family motto was: "Findus in silvis sientibus" (Faithful to the silent forests). Their castle once stood on Schauenberg. The last descendants of one of the last robber barons was caught in an ambush by the archbishop of Passau. The elder one was decapitated but the youngest was reprieved and exiled. Being the last of his family, he went into the vast primeval forests around Dreisselberg and settled down on the shore of PlÃ¶ckensteinsee. Here he lived a life as a forester. From him the family Schauberger emerges, who during nearly one millennium have been foresters, fishermen and woodsmen. They had their faith in the church doctrines, as they served the crosier for a millennium, and even less, had science as their belief. They only trusted in what they saw with their own eyes and felt with their born intuition. Most of all, they knew the healing forces of water and understood how to use peculiarly shaped water-channels, which only worked during the cold night, in order to create a greater harvest than their neighbors. However, their main interests was to care for the forest and its wildlife. Many times, flooding uncovered the strange water-constructions that they built in the mountain creeks for the purpose of floating timber. These constructions forced the water to bend in peculiarly shaped curves, in spiral looking or "snake" shaped movements. Of course, the term "cycloid space-curve movements" was unknown to them, but strange enough, they used the essence of this term so skilled, that the shaping made the channels work rhythmically so the water and the logs got a tremendous "schwung" so it sometimes passed upwards, as to making fun of the law of gravity...

"From my early childhood, it was my highest wish to be a forester, as my father, grandfather, and in fact, all my ancestors had been. When I was received by an elder forester as an assistant in his domain, my dreams came true in a way that I had not been able to paint in my dreams. Replacing the elder forester, I got my own hunting domain after the WW I. It was the most distant, but therefore, also the best, regarding hunting. As my nearest manager treated me in a patronizing way, our relation was not the best, but instead, the landlord's (FÃ¼rst Von Schunburg-Lipped) confidence for me hastily increased. When he got married, shortly after, I won one more favorer - his bride - the extremely beautiful young Princess, as I, on her birthday, managed it so that she was able to shoot a mighty twelve spine stag. In the hunting-grounds, the Princess confided that her husband was close to loosing his estates, because of the changes that the War had brought. He had lost a lot of his prosperity and could only keep his estates if his economy could increase. Before this, I had already brought a plan to the estate management that would have saved the costs of the timber transports by 90 %. But this plan was rejected as unrealistic. The management said that according to Archimedes's law, timber from oak and beech could not be floated as it is heavier than water."

"However, the princess came from an open-minded family and did know of my plan. She had a feeling that this plan could save the large domain. She had also learned about the attempt to bribe me, for the purpose of making me not realize my plan. The bribe had come from the company that bought the timber "on root" from the Prince. Suddenly she asked me: "how much did they offer you"? I answered: " three times my annually wages". She abruptly stopped and asked again: "How much could be saved if your construction would be realized"? "Today the transport cost of one cubic meter of timber is 12 Schilling. We fell 30,000 cubic meters per year. This will be about 360,000 Schilling. How much would one cubic meter cost with your construction?" I answered, "1 Schilling, plus the pay off." In his domain, the prince had to make a yearly investment of 80,000 Schillings, and soon she had counted how much could be saved. "OK", she said, "lets do it". I asked for complete freedom in my work and overtook the full responsibility, and the princess kept her promises. At this time I had no idea of the risk I took. But, I was lucky, even in the most critical moments. During one of these moments I was able to make an observation whose enormous impact I realized many years after."

"The construction was completed in 4 months. The huge timber logs laid ready on the store place. One day, I did a simple test. One medium heavy log was placed in the entrance of the channel. It floated about 100 meters and laid "dead" on the bottom. The after-coming water flooded over. Immediately I saw all scornful and malicious faces in the front of me. I realized the full consequences of my failure and was furious. I removed the log from the channel. The diagnoses was clear: not enough of water and too much fall. I had no idea of what to do. At first, I sent away my working staff to be able to think in peace."

"The shaping of the curves was all-right; no doubt about that. But, why did the construction not work, as I had thought? ( Timber flotation installation in Neuberg an der MÃ¼rz/Styria, right) I walked along the channel slowly and finally I came down to the gathering and sorting dam which formed the entrance to a new channel. The dam was full of water. I sat down on a rock and overlooked the water surface. Suddenly, I felt a movement under my leather-trousers. I stepped back and saw a snake that had been laying there when I sat down. I threw it in the dam where it immediately swam to the shore and tried to get up. But the rock wall was steep, and the snake searched for a better place to land. When the snake crossed the dam, I looked at it. Then a thought crossed my mind: how is it possible for the snake to swim so fast without any fins? Quickly, I got my binoculars and observed the snake's strange winding movements in the crystal clear water. The snake reached the opposite shore and landed. I stood petrified for a while when I repeated every change in the snakes movement under the water. It was a combination of vertical and horizontal curves. The process of the movements struck my mind like a bolt of lightning!"

"One hour later, I was by my men in their lodge, where they were cooking dinner. Resolute, I gave my orders: "Get ready at once. Three men go to the saw mill and request a truck from the management and then bring 300 roof battens made of larch to the entrance of the channel!" The men looked strangely at me. A foreman from Tyrolean asked me: "what will you use these for"? I cut him off with: "do as you are told !" I took the master of construction with me to the entrance of the channel. I said to him: "You will get double paid if you, if necessary, work all through the night nailing these roof battens to the channel as I show you!" The master shrugged his shoulders and nodded in consent. After a couple of hours, the truck with the roof battens arrived. All night the beating of the hammers sounded. Carefully I monitored the opposite curves that the roof battens should form in the channel in order to force the water into a movement like the one that the snake had done."

"Arriving at my home at midnight, I found a letter from the Super Forest Officer telling me, that next day, around 10 o'clock, the Prince and his Princess, along with some experts and branch people, would be present to overlook the first test. While calculating, I slowly laid the letter aside. The men could be ready about 8 or 9 in the morning, if they worked all night with all their powers. I took my alp-stick and my rifle, and, after one hour I arrived at the working place. Far away, I heard the beating sound of hammers and saw the light from the truck. "When will you be ready?" I shouted. The master of construction guessed around 9 in the morning. I promised everybody three times their wages if they could be ready by 8:00 AM. They made it by half past 7. I said to the men: "Take your breakfast and be at the entrance at half past 9". There we have one more hour of work to complete, and then you will have one day of resting, double paid! The master told me to take a break before I fell down. But, I rejected him with a gesture and went to the entrance. There I waited until my men came back, and, shortly after, the Prince, his Princess, some of my worst opponents, and the experts and branch people arrived. I saluted the Prince and his Princess and the Super Forest Officer; the rest I ignored. The princess looked worried for me. Leaning against a pole, stood the old Transport Master wearing a patronizing smile on his lips."

"I told the men to open the flood gate. Behind the gate, my men put smaller logs into the water. But when they tried to hide away one heavy, 1 yard thick log, the old transport master suddenly said: "well, well that heavy log should be in it too"! I waved at the men, and, slowly the heavy log came closer to the entrance. The log flooded the flume and the water slowly rose; no one said a word. Everybody stood and stared at the log which rose along with the water. In the next moment, the channel would have been over flooded. Then, a gurgling sound was heard and the heavy log first turned to the right and then a little to the left. After this, it wound as a snake with its front part high above the water, and then it darted away on top of the water."

"Everyone stood staring in amazement after the log had gone. Finally, the old channel master spit into the channel and caught with a hooked index finger his old quid out from his toothless mouth and through it into the channel. He muttered: "kiss my ass, it really worked"! The Prince, who did not hear what he said, wondered what he did say. I stammered something to the Prince that he had cited something from GÃ¶tz von Berlichingen."

" "Well, then it is working", the Master Forester Officer said. I shortly said good-bye and disappeared into the wood with my alp-stick and my rifle. As soon as I was out of sight I sat down on a stone and dried my cold sweat from my forehead. Once, but never again, I thought. If I had not seen that snake, my life would have been gone."

"After a couple of days, I was appointed as the Master of the whole forest and hunting domain. Later on, they where coming from all over the world; experts, branch people, and also, ministers. Shortly after, I was noticed by the agriculture department in Wien. Then a struggle started that still is going on. Often, it has taken the most unpleasant forms. I will probably never have any kind of peace since the day I promised the princess to build that floating channel." Viktor Schauberger's British Patent: Water Conduit.

"Galilee discovered the movement of the earth. The church and the scientific world was outrageous. The pope threaten the discoverer by excommunicate him. Bishops and other high masters tormented him with long processes. Finally, hardly pressed by his colleagues, he was forced to reject his discovery. But, his last word was "even then, she moves", just before he died. But I was not thinking about Galilee, Archimedes, Meyer, Newton, Pythagoras or other discoverers of the laws of nature. I was only studying these logs and other matter that was heavier than water, which, during special circumstances, could swing like fishes in the water. I also studied the places where they floated straight up. Places where over powered thrust forces work and where these logs went to the bottom and came to rest."

"The snake, who was making such strange movements in the water, displayed the double twisted movement and helped me with my great success. One hundred thousand of the heaviest logs have followed the first one, as it was no difference in their density. Now I understand why my ancestors constructed their floating channels the way they did."

"The final preparations of the construction was nearly sabotaged by the Super Forester Officer, who promptly showed his superiority. Supported by the political leader of the forest department, he came to our working place and forbade all work and destroyed my carefully made schedule. I was forced to show my ideas and plans to a commission that was composed of hostile higher Forest Officials, monitored by the Domain Intendant."

"The "masters" declared that a 19 yard high catch-dam would not manage to stand the pressure from the water. They declared that if it would break, the flood would make enormous damages to the villages down below. I saw and heard the hostile and ruthless attitude at the commission. However, I had early learnt about the commission and been able to make some preparations. The reason why the commission was put together was that they wanted to see my fall."

"Therefore, I did not answer the Intendant but calmly walked down the stairs to the dam, took my rifle and shot two shots up towards the stream. This was the signal to the man that was posted along with the upper dam to open the great flood gate and let the huge amount of water rush down the furrow to the place where I stood. These men were faithful to me, but, the commission thought that I had gone mad shooting two live shots in the air. They ordered me to lay down my rifle and to get up to the plateau where the members of the commission stood wildly gesticulating."

"Then, a tremendous roaring came closer. I pointed up along the stream and around the closest bend, a 6 yard high brown wall of water full of whirling logs came rushing. "For Gods sake come up here immediately!" the Intendant yelled. The members of the commission waived crazily their arms and shouted exited into each others mouth. This behavior seemed quite mad from my point of view. After a short side view on these confused people I bent over the apparently weak dam wall and studied, very interestingly, the forward rushing mass of water, which, in a short time would hit the wall on which I was standing."

"This was what the members of the commission thought, who stood on the plateau holding their breath. But the masses of water did not act this way. Instead, they came as a weak breaker, turned around, and rushed with a tremendous force against the later incoming water. In this way, the two waves hit together, breaking each others force, while the logs raised straight up and even jumped as salmons high above the whirling water. The dam, which contained 1 million cubic meters of water, was filled in a short time and the dam wall stood easily where it has been placed. The man who opened the flood gate emerged. He did not give a single glimpse to the crowd that was standing on the plateau, but leaped down the stairs asking: "well...did it work?" I nodded shortly, reloaded my rifle, and slowly walked up the stairs. "Now you had more luck than sense !" the Intendment said. I measured him top to toe with my gaze and said: "Mr. Intendment, I think the weak sense is to be found somewhere else!" Then I left him. The other "masters" followed silently talking about the event. When they where ready, the Intendant called for me and informed me that the dam should be carefully measured and tested by a consulting firm from Wien. Even though the dam had held, it is surely not strong enough, he said. These gentlemen came after a weak. Their result after measuring and testing, was, that the dam was twelve times stronger than it had to be, because of the skilled construction."

"I demonstrated once more the filling of the dam for these gentlemen, who in spite of careful calculations, could not explain how the dam worked. I made them notice the way the water hit the wall of the dam and how the opposing wave did, in fact, break down the after-coming main wave. I got the idea for the dam's profile from a hens egg, not from some kind of technical university!" Viktor Schauberger

"Nature as a master of knowledge", by Viktor Schauberger:

Everywhere in the nature, movement is created through differences in temperature and tension . In the cross sections of these the basic and natural forces of life are created. Natural events that has been untouched by human hands gives us the clue how to shape a new kind of technique. To do this, a good power of observation is needed. We must be able to understand the nature in order to copy the natures moving processes. As a master of the wild life in a distant forest domain which hardly could have been visited by humans, I was able to do the following observations, and these lead to the implosion technique.

In Hetzau below the Ring, Die Ã–deseen (The Desolated Lakes) are situated. After a long period of hot weather, they start to "bÃ¼hlen" (bellow), as the local people name the thundering sound that emerges from the lakes at the same time, tornadoes of water, high as houses, rises from the center of the lake.

The following is an attempt to describe what I experienced: One hot summer day I sat by the shore and was just thinking of taking a cooling swim in the lake. At the moment I was going to do it, I noticed that the water of the lake started to twist into strange spiral shaped curves. Trees that had fallen into the lake moved from the shore and started to do a spiral shaped "dance" in a centripetal movement towards the center of the lake. Coming into the center, they suddenly erected vertically and were sucked into the deep with such force that their bark was peeled from them. Just like a person that is lifted up in the air by a cyclone and then falls down without any clothes. However, these trees never came up again.

The lake was calm for a short time, as it was satisfied with its pray. But this calm was an ominous waiting for the next event. Suddenly a rumbling sound was heard from the bottom of the lake. At once a tornado of water, high as a house erected form the center of the lake and a thundering sound was heard when the grail shaped water column stood up. Then the column fell down, with waves swallowing against the shore and I had to run away when the water edge abruptly raised. What I had experienced was the primeval birth of water; renewal of water in a lake without any inflow. I had now started to understand, but still had a lot to learn. One more event helped me to fully understand this interesting question. As a young forest assistant, I used to row in a handy boat on a mountain lake that was situated close to our cabin. I was fishing and hunting ducks among other wild animals. My greatest wish was to be able to shoot a mighty sea-eagle. There was one coming every evening and circulated in peculiar ways over the lake. At the right moment, it let itself fall like a stone and the next moment while flying away, it had a big fish in its claws.

The biggest enigma was how the eagle always could catch live fish without diving into the water. The fish never came up to the surface. It took a long time before I was able to solve the riddle. I must really make a careful observation of the hunter and his pray, I thought. On a nearby rock, I found an old spruce, strong enough to carry me. One day I sat hidden in the spruce, armed with my binoculars, and was able to study every movement of the eagle and the fish which swam around in the water.

As always, he came at he exact moment, first flying close to the water's surface with a mighty cry and remarkable strong wing beats. It was as if he wanted to announce to his victims that he was here and wanted his tribute. Then the eagle rose nearly vertical in a spiral winding movement, now and then controlling its flight with a beat of its wings, making the spiral more and more close. Then, he let himself fall like a stone with his wings close to his body. Just above the water, he braked. Suddenly, there was a struggling fish in his claws. Heavily loaded, he flew, turning against the woods and was gone.

Logically, the most interesting thing was the behavior of the eagle. I forgot to watch the fish, who, apparently safe, swam around in a reasonable depth. But the next time, I also studied their behavior. The eagle came and flew its well known close spirals. What I now saw, was so incredible that I almost fell into the water. Unconsciously I imitated the movements of the fish when they completely copied the eagle's spiraling movements upwards. As thread on a string, they came swimming up against the surface, and as the eagle, making the spiral more and more closer until those who where in the center were pushed up above the surface. Then the shadow from the eagle came, a small whirl was seen, and he had one of the biggest fish in his claws and then sailed away. As soon as I had the opportunity, I studied this drama and was always so surprised that I almost got hypnotized by the movements of the fish..

THE POWER OF WATER

By Jeane Manning in Atlantis Rising, No 19, 1999 (reproduced here with the kind permission of Atlantis Rising)

Our thinking apparatus runs on water. Our physical bodies are two-thirds water, so obviously its qualities can heal or harm us. We now learn that water seems to remember and later convey "information". No wonder the most dynamic frontier in science today is water research. Or is it a re-search, I wondered, after encountering researchers who:

Some study the big picture, such as the claim that rivers self-organize and energetically recharge themselves through spinning motions. And some point out the well-known anomalies that water is densest at 4 degrees Celsius (=39F), and strangely expands when cooled further, so that its solid state floats on top of its liquid state. Water as the "universal solvent" melds with nearly any element. Hydrogen, the main ingredient in water, is spread throughout galaxies, and ice is found in dust clouds in outer space.

The picture of water that emerges is what Marilyn Ferguson in her book Aquarian Conspiracy calls" the strangest stuff around." Learning about the mysteries of water evokes a primal fore-knowing, like a racial memory, perhaps pro-science, something we have known for a very long time.

Before our materialistic age lost the abilities to sense subtle "energetics", water was central to sacred rituals and symbols: Baptism, The holy river, Spiritual visions of the Ocean of Love, Myths of the flood or of creation, Drinking of sacred waters when visiting an oracle or a shrine. The Sumerian goddess Inanna had a vase in place of a heart, from which flowed miraculous water. The Bronze Age civilization of King Minos at his city of Knossos on the island of Crete apparently lived by the principle that water should be returned to the earth in the same conditions it was when it was borrowed, treating all water as holy. Our era in contrast treats rivers and oceans as dumping grounds, and we face shortages of drinkable water. Dr. Karl Maret predicts that water will become the currency in the new century. Meanwhile researchers of water mysteries struggle for funding.

Ferguson notes: "The quest to understand water hasn't summoned up the capital and glamour of space research, although it may have more direct bearing on our lives. While humans burn rain forests and alter other factors that kept our habitat moist, we should remember the nagging suspicion that Mars was once a watery planet."

We've had ample warnings. Austrian forest warden Viktor Schauberger (1885-1958) warned about wastelands that did and would appear on our planet when vast forests disappear. He observed the interaction between water and forest, such as the vitality of cold, pure water in tree-sheltered streams. He admonished: "Comprehend nature, then copy nature." He taught that water is a living rhythmic substance. In maturity, it gives of itself to everything needing life. However, water can become diseased through incorrect handling. Dying water harms animals, plants, and fish.

Whether stilled by a dam or a bottle, stagnant and warm waters begin to deteriorate. Conversely, at a cool 4 degrees Celsius (39F), moving water is densest, strongest and at its best carrying capacity. Wild rivers have inherent self-control mechanisms, if left alone to establish their own homeostasis, that is if kept cool with natural overhanging vegetation and allowed to meander around bends and therefore be lively with purposeful swirling motion. Shortsighted human engineering, clear-cut forests, mega-project dams, and rivers confined into canals all tamper with the circulatory system of our planet. Having interfered with the hydrological cycle, we reap floods, droughts, and other extremes of weather.

Olaf Alexandersson, in his book "Living Water" introduces Schauberger's insight into river management, water-fueled devices and energy. Its successor is the book by Callum Coats, "Living Energies", that could be the textbook for a new eco-technology, to construct or encourage processes which don't fight nature but instead work in harmony. Coats researched for two decades into Schauberger's discoveries from forestry to flood control to soil fertility and water purification. Hydrologists could learn by reading this book how crucial the small variations are in a river's temperature, and how water's spinning motion recharges it with subtle energies.

The naturalist's warning echoes across the decades, "Prevailing technology uses the wrong form of motions." Twentieth-century machines leave behind waste products because their processes use the destructive half of nature's creation/destruction cycle, the centrifugal outward moving motions of heating, burning, pushing, radiating or explosion. They channel air, water and fuels into the type of motion which nature uses to decompose matter. Schauberger observed that the centripetal inward-spiraling force is the creative, cooling, sucking motion without friction, which results in increased order instead of destruction. He applied his understanding of cycloid spiral motion to a wide range of inventions; methods that are in harmony with nature's creative motion. This "water magician" found solutions for agriculture, for energy generation, as well as transporting water in pipes that encourage the inward-spiraling motion of water. Today's researchers follow and expand on Schauberger's earlier knowledge.

For instance, the Swedish Malmo group use the phrase "self-organizing flow" to describe what they are creating, since Schauberger's technology made use of the natural orderliness spontaneously created by a system under the correct conditions. Meanwhile, new energy-generating processes, such as Randall Mills' Black Light Power, convert ordinary water into hydrogen and oxygen. Paul Pantone of Utah runs engines on water mixed with waste substances, and the air that comes out the exhaust pipe won't dirty-a white handkerchief held at the end of the pipe.

About a century ago, John Worrell Keely figured out how to run a motor on the power of cavitation or implosion, while alternately compressing and expanding water. He harnessed that which we dismiss as a nuisance- the water hammer- in water pipes. Dale Pond, researcher of Keely's physics , says that Keely's Hydro-Vacuo motor created a water hammer shock wave, which, when synchronized with the wave's echo, "results in Amplitude Additive Synthesis, a process which tremendously increased energy accumulations in quick order." Pond warns that this resonance amplification is similar to the process which breaks wine glasses.

As a very interesting tangent to this, I took a hard look at a wonderful man's "water powered" invention - called "Whirlpower" and it holds great promise for a new energy source - a non-polluting energy source. Mr. David Dennard (May God bless his sole) has passed on from us, however, his work in water powered energy - Whirlpower - lives on. Please see the page I have prepared from his original work.

At Water-science conferences which this journalist attended in recent years such as the one at Seniamhoo Resort, WA, Nov. '98 (funded by Living Water International); a privately funded '97 meeting in Los Angeles organized by Linda McClain; and the Institute of Advanced Water Sciences (AWS) symposium the previous year in Dallas, TX the one fact that emerged was that water is not a single homogeneous product of nature.

Water in living cells has unique structure, and clusters of its molecules have organized relationships. Another factor is what Schauberger called the "immature taker" vs. "life-giving mature" water. Since water without minerals Is a relentless solvent, if we could distill 100% of impurities out of a batch of water, it would be dangerous to drink, leaching minerals from our bones.

Then there's the movement-vitality factor. Stagnant, bottled water, even though chemically clear, is dead compared to water in the rushing brooks. But it has to be proper movement. As water is pushed through cities in the unnatural confines of metal pipes, its energetic oscillations interfere, and the natural order in water's structure is canceled.' How do we know this? For one, German engineer Theodor Schwenk and his Institute for Flow Science, developed a technique for photographing the internal structure of water. In drops of water taken near pristine springs, a symmetric Rosetta pattern was revealed. On the other hand, the internal structure of damaged municipal water is-chaotic. Chemical contaminants and electromagnetic pollution compound the damage and cause chaotic clustering of water molecules. These meetings wrestled with questions such as whether 'living water' is an organized state of matter and energy, and capable of storing and transmitting information. If so, the implications go beyond homeopathy and 'energy medicine" and into the interaction between water and consciousness.

Dr. David Schweitzer, grandson of Albert Schweitzer, is the first scientist to photograph the effects of thoughts, captured in water. This shows that water can act as a liquid memory system capable of storing information. David Schweitzer first stepped into this trail by becoming an authority on blood analysis. He learned that blood cells express themselves in sacred geometry and their harmonious shapes and colors. Since blood cells hang out in water, he looked farther into that substance for answers about our thinking processes. After ten years of observing blood, in 1996 he made the discovery which opened the door to photographing the stored frequencies in homeopathic and natural remedies and to researching the impact of positive or negative thoughts on bodily fluids.

"Having studied the relationship between the brain, cells and emotions," he told Joseph Duggan in Vancouver, "I came to realize that certain trace elements were needed to send information from one area of the brain to another." Minerals alone could not convey information. To find out if the carrier was water itself, Dr. Schweitzer experimented. French scientist Jacques Bienveniste had already shed light on the memory of water in homeopathy. He and a dozen other scientists demonstrated that water can retain a memory of molecules it once contained. Nature magazine in 1988 published their experiments showing that if water containing antibodies was diluted repeatedly until it no longer contained a single molecule of antibody, immune cells still respond to the water. The publication drew outrage from orthodox professors, and the magazine later sent a team to Benveniste's laboratory including the magician James Randi and Walter Stewart, a self-appointed investigator of scientific fraud. The team judged the French scientists' results to be a "delusion." However, a recent book by Michel Schiff says the slander of Benveniste was the delusion.

Dr. Schweitzer says, aspects of the homeopathic research couldn't be measured by the investigators' instruments. The witch hunt in France didn't stop him from radical thinking. He remembered Albert Einstein's idea that particulate "light bodies" act in ways we don't yet understand. Waking up one morning with insight on how to make these bodies visible, Schweitzer began working on a fluorescent microscope at a certain light intensity. He wanted to see somatids change in response to thought and other influences. Just before the water on the microscope slides evaporated, he saw certain formations develop "dependent on the thoughts or energy atmosphere it had been impregnated with." l observed that this cluster could be modified at will." Further work showed that microscopic light bodies in the water intensify in the presence of positive thoughts. They shine brightly if thoughts are backed up by emotion, and it makes a big difference whether the emotions are negative or positive.

Intrigued by the tiny light-bodies, he tested holy waters of religious faiths, from Italy, Russia, Yugoslavia and North America and saw somatids floating even after years of being bottled on shelves. "This means there is an ideal balance when somatids never touch,' each other, which gives them the greatest capacity to store information." But when he studied homeopathic remedies, careful storage of energy medicine is crucial. French immunologist Jacques Benveniste had learned that electronic circuits can impress lasting information upon water, and low-frequency electromagnetic radiation and heat destroy homeopathic strength. Further, Dr. Schweitzer has a warning about purified water we buy in clear plastic bottles that have been exposed to fluorescent lighting. When we drink only this water, our lips dry out and become chapped and cracked. "Normally, drinking water does not dry out the mouth, but fluorescent lighting changes the structure of water such that it dries out the mucous membranes."

Randy Ziesenus, of Edmund, Oklahoma, says anyone can personally improve the water they use. "It's amazing what happens when you take a glass of water and hold it between the palms of your hands and ask your higher Self to work with that water and whatever you need for your highest good. And then drink it; incredible what that little (ritual) does." Ziesenus is president of Bio-Com, a company that specializes in the development of biotechnology using radio-frequencies (RF) to alter water's bonding structure. 'He says "if you drink water that's harmonious to the human body, water will pass through the body within ten to 15 minutes. Then you've got to go to the restroom. The (harmonious) water will carry out toxins."

One of his inventions condenses water from air." That's one of the biggest things I've been working on by using frequencies to draw moisture out of air." He and researchers from Los Alamos National Laboratory are working on "a program where you can take a photocell device, put it out in the desert, and it will make a gallon of water overnight." The unit is powered by photovoltaic (electricity from sunlight). Ziesenus agrees with Dr. Scheitzer's claim that our AC electricity leaves a harmful imprint on water.

At the Living Water conference, professor emeritus William Tiller quietly obliterated the conventional view that humans cannot meaningfully interact with their experiments, "Conventional science would even more emphatically state that specific human intentions could not be focused into a simple electronic device, which is then used to meaningfully influence an experiment in accord with the specific intention. We have made a valid test and found conventional science conclusion to be in serious error." In his work Dr. Tiller describes the people who are capable of sustaining high-coherence in intentions as "imprinters." They, for example, sit around the table while putting out the intention "to activate the indwelling consciousness of the system" so that the pH of the experimental, water increased or decreased significantly compared to the control. It did. How does he explain this?

The theory used by Tiller and co-researcher Walter Dibble, Jr., is multidimensional. These scientists see water as a special material, "well suited for information/energy transfer from this frequency domain into our conventional domain of cognition, the physical." Regarding the factor of mental capability of whether imprinters know enough science to visualize changes in pH, Dr. Tiller said, "the unseen intelligence of the universe is an even more important factor." Later he added, "in my view it is the spark of Spirit in the cells that give rise to the life force."

Another scientist at that meeting, Dr. Glen Rein, points out, that physicists know about the existence of energy fields with properties, which are not explained by classical equations. He refers to the non-classical fields as quantum fields. Rein's work again shows that this non-electromagnetic energy-information from the primordial vacuum of space- can be stored in water and can later communicate with living cells.

Perhaps Viktor Schauberger's most startling observation was that subtle qualities of water can affect humans mentally and spiritually, either revitalization or deterioration of society. Dr. Thomas Narvaez has proven to his own satisfaction that a vitality factor exists and can be increased or decreased in water by human activity." We now see that our thoughts not only affect our own bodies, but also the bodies of those around us. Members of this group (speaking to the Institute of Advanced Water Sciences, in 1996 ) who bottled water or who worked with broadcasted energies like crystals or magnets therefore have a responsibility to keep our view of the world upbeat and positive."

Water; we all require it, and when we use poor quality water we covertly compromise our good health. Global thoughtless use and abuse of our earths' water has now gotten to a point where our entire planet is at risk of pollution and disease and ultimately major planetary catastrophe. Many an opportunist will profit from the "clean water" that he sells, you are already being encouraged to use it, and guess what? The water you buy in the shops is still not up to the vitalizing, nourishing quality your body deserves...! So, in the here and now, mankind's continued ignorance and abuse will destroy the fundamental resources of our earth... it's water, air and soils. Without these simple things, we can never expect to see prosperity, good health or personal freedom as God-given human rights. So, lets take a look at what Viktor Schauberger reckons, when it comes to determining what kind of water is good to drink:

Distilled water - Distilled water is evaporated to steam then condensed as a pure fluid; it appears chemically clean. In this state, water by it's intrinsic nature, will draw to it's self anything it can dissolve in order to fulfill a basic function...that of a carrier of substances. Distilled water will only remain so, as long as it is not given the opportunity to make contact with soluble materials. Drinking distilled water as a regular routine is dangerous! It acts as a purgative and will strip trace elements and minerals from your body! Don't buy too much of this stuff at the shops and don't use a distiller to drink from...you have been warned!

Rain water - With an unpolluted atmosphere, rainwater is the purest naturally occurring water in nature, but unfortunately much of our globe no longer has this occur as acid rain is a direct consequence of our ignorant ways. Like distilled water, rainwater is unsuitable as drinking water and should also be avoided over a long term basis. Rainwater could be seen as a young adolescent that has yet to go through the maturing process the earth provides.

Juvenile water - This water comes from the ground, often from great depths and forced upwards (maybe appearing as a geyser) or pumped to the surface as from a deep bore. It is still lacking it's quota of minerals and is deficient in dissolved carbons. As drinking water goes, it's marginal at best.

Surface water - It has contact with the earth so the opportunity of it to dissolve materials is present. Keep in mind that pollutants with in a particular area are definite minus points. Surface water is also generally exposed to direct sunlight, and when collected into and stored in an open dam, the water's energy value becomes damaged by the influences of the heat and light. Note: drinking water should never be exposed to direct sunlight...!

Groundwater - Retrieved from the ground, this water is getting pretty good as it generally has a high dissolved mineral content. In it's journey above the impervious sub stratum it may appear as seepage springs in gullies, or as shallow wells.

Spring water - The prime source of vitalizing drinking water. It is ripe in minerals, trace elements and dissolved carbons. It's high state of vitality is seen in it's shimmering energetic bluish color, no other water looks like this. The water rises from the earth with the qualities of levitation, it is very cool and will approach the anomaly point of +4 C. The streams they create are collection points for drinking water, and provided the stream is not contaminated by agriculture and human habitation, it remains very drinkable, well worth the finding...

Viktor invented a machine that could use most any unpolluted water and process it into spring water. With this machine he acquired the name "The Water Wizard" because the water he produced had powerful healing qualities. Viktor was able to achieve the remission of cancer for many people, but he soon came into opposition with the authorities who accused him of charlatanism and being unqualified to practice healing. His machine was confiscated and destroyed...!
