Watching Water with Dr. Emoto

July 4, 2008 – 2:11 pm

I saw stars and diamonds in the water of the Hudson River that afternoon one year ago. I also saw these colors: light blue, pure white, medium green, moss green, beige, silver, and lilac. I saw large, flat, scary shapes coming toward me underwater. They looked like huge sea monsters, but I knew they were only harmless tricks of the light. The river water was dancing and playing. It never stayed the same for more than two minutes.

Many sail boats were on the river. I noticed that when a motorized boat was coming but still out of sight, the sound of its motor cast a chaotic net pattern over the waves. Was I mistaken, or did the helicopters flying over New York City also set this nervous, net-like vibration going at great distances?

I saw shiny puddles, like mercury, forming continuously on the surface of the waves. They were changing shape and disappearing, as if drawn by an invisible cartoonist. At another time the waves played at making circles, just as a man with a cigar might blow smoke rings for his own amusement.

The largest computer in the world could not have tracked for one minute all the wave patterns I saw in a small volume of river water. I took out my notebook and wrote: “All these vibrations are caused by only God knows what.”

Just then, in a marvelous coincidence, some clouds high in the sky floated away and a broad beam of light hit the water, sending a shower of sparkling star lights all the way across the river from the far shore to the very spot on which I was standing.

Could it be that the clouds and the river were responding to my state of appreciation? Does that sound highly unlikely? Maybe it does sound impossible. This occurrence was, however, very memorable. It caused me to sit up and take notice upon reading several bestselling books written by Dr. Masaru Emoto, the internationally renowned Japanese researcher and independent thinker. He has published photographic evidence demonstrating beyond a shadow of a doubt that water responds to and copies, in its own way, our words, thoughts, states of mind, images, and many other influences.

Dr. Emoto has photographed, for example, the effects on water (and on rice) of the words, “Thank you” and “You fool.” He has also photographed the distinctive effects of various musical compositions and pictorial images upon water. He discusses a ripple effect, the way flowing water spreads its messages far and wide around the world. Water’s ability to copy and disseminate could be the scientific explanation for many effects that have previously been unexplained and unexplainable.

He discusses, for example, the mechanism by which a person who harbors resentment or plots revenge will probably bring harm to himself and the people around him. The human body is 70 percent water. When we

harbor destructive thoughts, we are literally changing the structure of the water in our own bodies and in the bodies of the people around us.

So many people these days are filled with hatred and have become cynical, if not cruel. They don’t know why they should make any effort to move themselves into a more positive frame of mind. “Of course I’m angry,” they say; “You’d be angry, too.” They think their hatred is protecting them and that it is justified. Perhaps such people would benefit from studying Dr. Emoto’s revealing photographs.

In addition, Dr. Emoto discusses water’s well-known healing properties. It can carry our troubles away. If you find yourself feeling irritated or weary, you would do well to stand for a few minutes and watch water flowing, noticing its delightful qualities, even if you are only washing dishes in your own kitchen sink or rinsing your hands under a faucet at work. The human body is mostly water, after all, and the part of us that is water always wants to move as freely as a mountain stream. Whenever you are in contact with water, don’t you instantly feel relieved and refreshed?

Questions for Discussion

1. Many men like to go fishing and find it very relaxing. Do you enjoy any form of recreation around water?

2. Prior to the work of Dr. Emoto, no one understood how the Bach Flower Remedies could be effective, since the formulations are mostly water. Now that it is known that water can memorize healing frequencies, I am much more likely to use such water-based remedies, because they do not have unpleasant side effects and are not expensive. (Homeopathy, while not water-based, is another remedy that functions on the level of vibration.) What do you think? Is there an old tradition of using teas, infusions, or other vibration-level remedies where you live, or would you be more likely to head for a doctor to get a prescription for antibiotics when you are sick? Or would you use both types of medicine, depending on the circumstances?

3. Sometimes we human beings can be as blocked up as the Aswan High Dam in Egypt or the Three Gorges Dam in China. “When water cannot flow, it dies,” says Dr. Emoto, and human beings are 70% water. His words are more than poetic. They give us a reason to act on what we wanted to believe all along, that we should never settle for stagnation. Would you care to comment on this, using some situation from your own life as an example?
