WATER THE TENTH ANNUAL WATER CONFERENCE BULGARIA, OCTOBER 1-4, 2015

www.waterconf.org/ www.facebook.com/waterconf

Why? At least four factors bear responsibility for the painfully slow emergence of new principles: (i)

the blighted history of the water field has kept scientists away; (ii) water is so common that everyone presumes that the fundamentals have been resolved; (iii) deviating from mainstream views can be unsettling; and (iv) questioning the prevailing wisdom has always been a risky business, in science as elsewhere.

These obstacles have combined to produce a long-term stall.

Lets crank a stalled engine!

Why We Understand So Little About Water

You might find it hard to believe, but few scientists study water.

Most scientists presume, as do lay people, that everything about this common substance must already be known — so whereʼs the scientific challenge? Better to pursue some trendy area like molecular biology or nanoscience rather than plunge into boring water.

Scientists shun water for a second reason. Water seems to have acquired a rather mystical character. Ancient religious gurus felt certain that water was endowed with exotic healing powers. Think of “holy water.”

Given that centrality, you might assume that we in the 21st century know pretty much all

The Mystery

there is to know about water. All answers should be in by now. Yet the previous chapter confirmed otherwise, showing how little we really know about this familiar and pervasive substance.

Consider what Philip Ball has to say on that issue. Ball is one of the premier science writers of our time, author of H2O: A Biography of Water, and a long-time science consultant for the journal Nature. Ball puts it this way:

“No one really understands water. It’s embarrassing to admit it, but the stuff that covers two-thirds of our planet is still a mystery. Worse, the more we look, the more the problems accumulate: new techniques probing deeper into the molecular architecture of liquid water are throwing up more puzzles.”

The Puzzle

The Social Behavior of H2O Biologists, for example, often regard water as the vast molecular sea that bathes the important molecules of life. We do not picture water molecules as seriously interacting with anything.

But water molecules must interact.

Think of the simple water droplet: at least some of the gazillions of water molecules that make up the droplet must stick to others, for without cohesion there could be no droplet. Those cohesive interactions cannot be static.

Energy Drives Ordering The separated charge provides the energy that drives the ordered crystal formation,

This same principle may also hold for metals. Common metals exhibit atomic

crystallinity. When heated to melting, metals become more amorphous. The question arises whether the radiant input used for melting provides the energy needed to fuel recrystallization, as in salt and sugar crystals. If so, then the same thermodynamic principle could remain applicable:

Ice formation does require energy; it exploits the potential energy of charge separation which is delivered as the positive proton charges combine with the negative EZ t o b u i l d c ry s t a l l i n e i c e .

Hence the energetics of iceformation match the energetics of EZ buildup. Both processes require energy.

Ordering Requires Energy

Batteries Made From Water

Battery!

The skies above unleash a flash of lightning, discharging hundreds of thousands of volts of raw energy to the earth始s surface. Those lightning strikes occur so frequently around the world that, according to atmospheric scientists, the earth始s surface cannot dissipate the accumulating negative charge, leaving it electrically negative. Standing on the ground, your nose is about 200 volts more positive than your toes.

While lightning and its electrical consequences are not the subjects of this chapter, charge definitely is. Like clouds, EZs contain concentrated electrical charges. Those charges carry potential energy, just like the thundercloud始s charges. And the consequences can be equally impressive. - Chapter 5 Image by Georg Schroecker

by Georg Schroecker

Charged

Consider biology. Charged entities such as membranes, proteins, and DNA all interface with water; exclusion zones should appear in abundance. Those EZs bear charge, which means they carry electrical potential energy. Since nature rarely discards available potential energy, EZ charge may be used to drive diverse cellular processes ranging from chemical reactions all the way to fluid flows. Opportunities abound.

by Georg Schroecker

Atomic Arrangements

How does the EZ construction process begin?

Hydrophilic surfaces generally contain oxygen atoms, and one possibility is that those surface-oxygen atoms form a template. If enough of those atoms始 positions correspond to the positions of oxygen atoms on the EZ honeycomb, then the surface itself could be thought of as the first EZ plane.

Additional planes would then easily stack from that template plane. Of course, no material surface provides a perfect match. Surfaces differ as to atomic arrangements and may have difference negatively charged atoms instead of oxygen. Some surfaces might therefore prove less adept at nucleating EZ layers; they would be considered less hydrophilic.

STRUCTURE WATER HAS STRUCTURE

The structure of the EZ is more like the n-type, with excess electrons borne by oxygen atoms. - Dr. Gerard Pollack Sounds human, as our structure is brought to life with oxygen (breath) - Karen Elkins

Shifting successive planes by 60째 yields a helical structure.

Hydrogen atoms (not shown) lie midway along the lines connecting the oxygen atoms. Interplanar protons link every other oxygen. The linkages create a pucker, which makes the arrangement of atoms seem less planar and more tetrahedral.

Spa Water

The evidence for water memory? ...came

from experiments involving successive

dilutions of biologically active substances. Take such a substance dissolved in water, and dilute it.

Then take a bit of this dilute solution and dilute it again; repeat this process again and again. After you have diluted it enough times, all you have left is water; statistically, none of the original substance remains. Benveniste and colleagues would continue to dilute it even well beyond that stage of nothing remaining and still found that the solution could have as much biological impact as the original. Pouring either the concentrated substance or the serially diluted substance onto cells could trigger the same molecular dance. It appeared that the diluted water retained a “memory� of the molecules with which it had been in contact, for only those molecules were specific enough to initiate that dance.

Preposterous, thought the editor of Nature, Sir John Maddox. How on earth could water retain information? But not everyone shared that seemingly obvious response. Homeopaths use a similar procedure when preparing their remedies, and some members of the homeopathic community felt that a distinguished scientist had finally vindicated their approach. Benveniste, on the other hand, was less interested in homeopathy than in science. Reacting to the summary rejection of his findings by Nature, Benveniste asked colleagues in three other

laboratories to repeat his experimental protocols to see if they could obtain the same results.

Remarkably, they did. And, once again, Benveniste submitted a report of the findings to Nature. The journal responded the same as before. Evidently, no matter how many laboratories could reproduce the result, the findings looked so improbable that some experimental gremlin clearly must have been lurking in that diluted water. With the polywater incident still very much in mind, Nature smelled a rat.

Under pressure to act fairly, the journal finally agreed to publish the results, albeit with one condition: the editor reserved the right to summon a committee to look over the shoulders of the French scientists as they performed their experiments; then the committee would report back to the readers of Nature. The French group accepted the stipulation. The paper quickly appeared, along with an appended disclaimer of skepticism. The editor indicated that he would launch an investigation: a committee of peers would determine just what those French scientists were really up to.

The committee of peers was, in fact, a committee of sleuths. ( chapter 2)

Zones

Something unpredicted is happening that drives microspheres from certain material surfaces. Although our artifact-seeking experiments consumed a good deal of our e n e r g y, t h e y b r o u g h t a n unexpected clue. Those meterlong exclusion zones struck us as implying some kind of crystallike structure, for crystals easily grow to such lengths: think of an icicle.

Crystals also exclude particles as they grow.

The prospect that the EZ might be some kind of crystal-like material intrigued us.

Black hole water from high mountain springs creates some times a pictures with a "black hole" surrounded with a blue color - is this a indication for charged water?

Are Protons Really Present Inside Vesicles?

The most direct strategy for probing the insides of vesicles is simple: collect their contents to see whether the gathered molecules contain protons.

We followed this strategy using the expedient of boiling. When water boils, bubbles break at the surface and their contents get expelled as vapor.

We collected that vapor, condensed it into liquid, and measured the liquid’s pH. The pH progressively diminished with boiling time. This meant that the insides of the bursting bubbles contained positive charge (Fig. 14.5, blue curve).

Meanwhile, as the container loses positive charge, that loss should be reflected in the residue; the residual water’s pH should progressively increase. That expectation was confirmed (Fig. 14.5, red curve). Thus, protons

moved from the water to the vapor, presumably as the bubbles burst and they poured from inside the bubbles.

A second test for interior protons used infrared imaging. If a bubble’s interior contained water alone, without protons, then that water should not radiate much differently from the water around it.

However, the interior radiates substantially more than the exterior (Fig. 14.6). Extra radiant energy implies active charge movement (Chapter 10) — a feature anticipated if concentrated protons jitter inside the bubble.

Bubble collapse. Similar to Figure 14.6, except that one bubble pops spontaneously. Note the dispersal of the zone of high radiant energy.

The Reich

cloudbuster method

by James DeMeo Ph.D.

The Reich cloudbuster method has no chemicals, no active EM or anything else being pumped into the atmosphere, but rather utilizes a property of "living water" as Schauberger might say, as it exists in liquid form at the ground, to stimulate changes in gaseous water in the atmosphere towards raindrops and coalescence.

Also circulation motions react to these changes once they are initiated, creating a spreading "chain reaction" of sorts that propagates outwards to affect larger regions of drought or dryland.

In the actual working of these instruments, there is no 'squeezing' of water out of the atmosphere as per cloudseeding, and hence no "dry shadow" downwind. The successful operation leads to a restoration of the natural cycles and processes of rain-dry-rain-dry pulsation, after which we retire home. Like using a defibrillator to get the heart going again, after something has led to a stoppage or blockage.

Except there's no lightning bolts coming off the cloudbuster. It is much more gentle and subtle, more like a gentle massage during midwifery, as compared to the hard obstetrics of the cloudseeders.

It is not anything used over long periods, only short periods, like a form of atmospheric acupuncture. In fact, many of the concepts used in acupuncture, such as removing of energy

blockages, are similarly developed in Reich's original theory of its operation. However, he didn't come to it by eastern metaphysics, but rather on the line of early vitalism and Freudian libido theory, and persisting ideas on the cosmic ether of space. Freud had the larger influence upon Reich, whose work indicated "libido" was a specific biological-sexual-emotional energy, measurable bioelectrically, and later objectified as life energy, or orgone energy.

His findings on the atmospheric energy are the most amazing of all his work, but I confirmed it years back at University of Kansas, and in many other field trials. The data is pretty good, and I'm now trying to convince the water bureaucrats in California to sponsor a project against their water crisis.

physics was never disproven, but it fell out of favor around the same time Reich discovered the atmospheric orgone continuum.

Reich's arguments thereafter were received with skepticism as there were no parallel concepts in modern physics. However, the old 'ether-theory' is making a comeback, and possibly that situation will change as well. For now, I simply make note that Reich's discovery was never factually refuted by replication of his experiments with negative results -in fact, I was the first academic scientist to actually attempt such experiments, and got positive results. Reich was attacked by his critics purely for theoretical disagreements -- they could not believe it was possible, and so never bothered to attempt the experiments. This was exactly what Galileo's critics did, when they refused to 'look into the telescope' to confirm his observations. With Reich, however, there has been a long line of scientists and naturalists outside the universities who have confirmed his findings -- I was simply the first university academic to do so, and so I owe a big debt to both Reich and also the

I began by obtaining photocopies of his banned and burned journal articles and books, plus articles by others, such as those published in the Journal of Orgonomy, which reported experiments by various MDs and PhDs from around the world that verified Reichʼs findings.

Water is the source of life and light

by Ph.D., Professor Konstantin Korotkov

Water is Life!

But water is also

Light!

We have said that without water life on Earth would be impossible in principle. And anyway, it seems that any conceivable life forms can exist only in the presence of water.

Even in its quiet state water emits photons, and they can be detected by supersensitive equipment. And by the activity of the emission one can see the reaction of water on the rising of the Moon, a change in atmospheric pressure or human emotions. One of the methods of such studies is Electrophotonic Imaging (EPI) based on Gas Discharge Visualization (EPI/GDV) technique, increasingly used to study health and psychological state.

EPC water test

EPC

Water Test

The patient places his fingers on the screen of the device, and the computer analyzes the glow that is developing around the fingers when short electric pulses are applied to them. This is a modern computer version of the well-known Kirlian effect. EPI/GDV technique has earned recognition of medical professionals as well as analysis of well-being and express diagnostics of the state of individual organs. Clinical trials conducted in the largest Russian and American universities and research centers have shown high efficiency of the developed diagnostic method.

Under the impact of the electric field almost all objects of the environment glow; and, of course, water and other liquids glow, too. EPI/GDV research of water glow was published in many papers, and a number of theses on this subject were defended. It was shown that the nature of glow characterizes the structure of the liquid.

Distilled water produces a small even circle of light; the glow of tap water is brighter and more inhomogeneous, whereas activated liquids produce bright flashes of glow. All parameters of these kinds of glow are measured quantitatively, so that we can assess the “character” of the tested water sample.

EPI/GDV technique quantifies the response of water to the environmental conditions and to different effects. As an example let’s take the dynamics of change in the glow area of drops of two samples of water immediately after opening the sealed bottles and 4 hours later.

Using this method, you can test the quality of bottled water and its compliance with the manufacturer's parameters, and such verification is much faster and cheaper than chemical analysis.

The sensitivity of EPI/GDV in studies of water enables us to study the reaction of water to various influences. For example, you can record a statistically significant difference in the glow area when comparing the initial water and water exposed to alternating magnetic field or acoustic waves. An interesting issue is to study the influence on the water of the form effects, in particular, pyramids, historical and religious buildings. During expeditions to the Russian North, to Mexico, Peru, India, Venezuela we conducted a series of experiments during which water samples were placed in the area of the object under study for a few hours, after which, in many cases a statistically significant difference was found in the parameters of EPI/GDV images of the samples as compared with the control ones.

EPC/GDV CAMERA by Dr. Korotkov

During such experiments it was observed that the result depends strongly on the time when the water was under the influence of the object. In 2009 a long experiment was conducted. Two liters of filtered tap water were poured into a glass jar and settled for several hours, after which the water was poured into two sterile 1-liter glass vessels, so that with the closed lid of the vessels there was no air inside.

Both vessels were sealed. One vessel was placed under an opaque pyramid; the second was put at a distance from the pyramid and covered with light-proof cloth. The pyramid was oriented to the cardinal points. In this position the samples remained for 3 months, after which the vessels were opened and each sample was measured 8 times. Measurements showed that with 99% probability the tested samples had a statistically More Âťsignificant difference. This quite objectively proves that the pyramid affects water, and hence the human body. However, it is unclear how much time should be spent under

the pyramid, of course, if you have not yet turned into a mummy.

The informative power of EPI/GDV method for studying liquid-phase objects was demonstrated in the studies of glow of microbial cultures, the blood of healthy individuals and cancer patients, blood reaction to allergens, homeopathic remedies of 30C potency, flower essences, and ultra low concentrations of various salts. A large series of studies have shown statistical differences in the glow of natural and synthetic essential oils having the same chemical composition by the results of spectrographic studies, as well as fruits and vegetables grown organically and with the use of fertilizers. You may find a lot of references in our books and on different web-sites. Of particular interest was the work on the influence of human emotions on water, and this issue is worth considering at greater length.

The Energy of Consciousness

The EPI/GDV (Electro Photon Imaging) system provides non-invasive, painless and almost immediate evaluation which can highlight potential health abnormalities prior to even the earliest symptoms of an underlying condition, and suggests courses of action. These may include identifying an area for further medical exploration, suggesting products that may be beneficial (such as vitamins, minerals, supplements), or evaluating energy, stress and vitality. In each case, the EPI scan can provide a broad spectrum of information and supportive suggestions.

This book describes spiritual adventures with mediums, healers, and ordinary people on various continents. It is written by mountaineer, professor and a world renown scientist, who has devoted his life to the study of spiritual worlds from a scientific perspective.

EPI utilizes a weak, electrical current applied to the fingertips for less than a millisecond. The body’s response to this stimulus is the formation of a variation of an “electron cloud” composed of light energy photons. The electronic “glow” of this discharge (invisible to the human eye) is captured by an optical CCD camera system and then translated into a digital computer file. http://gdvusa.org/ http://korotkov.org/

Science, Information, and Spirit this is a recurring slogan of his work for many years. This is a book about unusual situations in the world around us, and about unusual lives of apparently o rd i n a r y p e o p l e i n d i ff e re n t c o u n t r i e s .

Measurements of health, prayer and love these are only some topics of these studies. Life – is a great adventure in our everyday reality, and you may receive a strong impulse of optimism by reading this book. http://www.gdvplanet.com/component/k2/item/ 120-the-energy-of-consciousness

effects of Words on Water

“Love & Gratitude”

A new hypothesis (the 4th phase of water) by Dr. Gerald Pollack offers the first plausible scientific explanation for Emoto’s findings.

It is possible that the energy of positive and negative emotions affects the structure of the 4th phase of water differently. As a result, the shapes of water crystals could be changed.

effect of Emotion on Water

Input • Light (Infrared) • Emotions & Thoughts • Words & Images • Prayers • Healing Energy • Psychic Power

Output

Freeze

• Electric Power • Physical Movement • Biochemical Reactions • Self-Healing Power • Immunological Capacity • Connection to Energetic Bodies

It seems that good water shows beautiful water crystals, while bad water does not show any crystal at all.

•

Water can be changed by music, images, words and prayers.

•

Water likes LOVE & GRATITUDE.

Dr. Emoto’s Conclusion

•Dr. Emoto’s insight that water can be changed by our thoughts, emotions and prayers ...could that be true.

•We think that Dr. Pollack’s findings on the 4th phase of water may explain the phenomena described in “Message from Water”.

• Dr. Emoto’s work has been inspirational around the world.

In Memory of the Late Dr. Masaru Emoto 2014

His last word was “Arigato”. (“Thank you” in Japanese) We believe his last word was to you, everybody. He was so grateful for you and thanked you all so very much.

He used to say, “Life is LOVE which is a gift from God and parents, and DEATH is gratitude for going to a new dimension”. So now he is in another dimension and continues to look over us warmly with love and gratitude.

We are going to carry on his mission of spreading the power of “love and gratitude”.

We thank you very much for offering prayers for Dr. Emoto, and please send your love, light, and gratitude to him once again.

With much love and gratitude, OME Staff http://hado.com/ihm/
