Product Description
The Hidden Messages In Water explores water's susceptibility to human words, emotions and thoughts. Japanese scientist Masaru Emoto has been researching this new field of science by freezing samples of water that have been exposed to either positive or negative words, emotions and music. Through photographs Dr. Emoto has found that water exposed to positive influences produces beautiful, perfectly formed crystals, while water exposed to negativity produces ugly, malformed crystals. Because the worls and our bodies are both composed of 70per cent water, the power to change the essence of water means that humans have the power to evoke change on a global or personal scale, by way of water.

The Spirit moved over the waters November 30, 2008
Pieter (Johannesburg)
This charming little book is not scientific but a rumination on consciousness that touches on vibrations, frequencies and the wonders of water. The prologue introduces the reader to the crucial role of water in life and in our bodies and psyche. Physically, humans consist mostly of water, 90% at birth 70% as adults. Dr Emoto considers water the essential life force, pointing out the various functions it performs, its unusual properties that include the copying and memorizing of information as in homeopathy. He explains the history of the project and the technique of photography employed: Freezing water photographing the crystals that last for only 20 - 30 seconds. First he noticed the effect of music on the form of these crystals, then the effect of written spoken words. br / br /The first series of full color plates contain 69 photographs of crystals with captions explanatory notes. The most beautiful to me are the ones exposed to the words Love Gratitude (more about this later), Wisdom in its Japanese, English German forms, Cosmos in the same three languages, Beethoven's Symphony no. 5, Swan Lake, Yesterday by The Beatles, Heartbreak Hotel by Elvis, Vivaldi's Four Seasons. Negative coercive words created distortions, chlorinated water is `dead' and proximity to computers, mobile phones televisions had the same negative effect as heating in a microwave oven. However, a wholesome TV program produced a lovely crystal so the content of the information modifies the effect of the electromagnetic carrier waves. br / br /The narrative then moves to the vibrational nature of the universe. Emotions, objects, locations individuals all emit frequencies. This means that everything emits sound too. Then follows a fascinating section on music, Hertzian waves and the concept of 42 octaves plus an explanation of resonance. Like attracts like and fundamentally incompatible frequencies cannot resonate but there may be resonance between non-identical frequencies, e.g. when the difference is two-, four-, eightfold or one half, one quarter etc. More detailed information on this subject is available in Sacred Sounds: Magic Healing Through Words Music by Ted Andrews and Jonathan Goldman's book Healing Sounds: The Power of Harmonics. br / br /The author revisits the miraculous properties of water, explaining its remarkable differences from other substances its unique abilities to sustain life, to heal and to purify. The research of Joan S Davis of Zurich Technical University is thought-provoking; several quotes are provided. She distinguishes between `juvenile' `wise water.' The baby water is that which has just fallen, whilst the wise is that which has spent time underground and gathered minerals, `memorizing' their vibrations. Correspondences exist between the vibrations of emotions and elements amongst others. The effect of consciousness on the physical world and quantum mechanics are discussed next, as well as Quantum Theorist David Bohm's theory of the Explicate Order observed by the senses and the Implicate Order experienced within the mind. The work of Rupert Sheldrake his theory of morphic fields morphic resonance are highly relevant here. Dr Emoto provides a simple explanation and some quotes by Sheldrake. br / br /The second series of plates, titled Water Shown Photographs of Natural Scenery, offers 65 photographs of crystal forms influenced by natural features like Mount Fuji. br / br /Much of the author's thoughts on vibrations the influence of the observer on the observed will already be familiar to those interested in quantum science metaphysics; what is new is the way that this phenomenon takes physical shape in water. Eldon Taylor's book Subliminal Communication explains how wave patterns created by sound can be displayed visually. Powders, liquids metal fillings scattered on a disc formed geometric patterns as the disc resonated to music, even taking on organic shapes. This book includes visual configurations of the mantra OM and the concluding chord of Haendel's Messiah by means of a tonophone. Works of related interest include Cymatics: A Study of Wave Phenomena Vibration by Hans Jenny and Harmonograph: A Visual Guide to the Mathematics of Music by Anthony Ashton. br / br /Dr Emoto believes the two emotions love gratitude combined form the most potent healing force and a powerful immune shield. Gratitude appears to have the greater influence in the blend. He argues that they are fundamental principles of nature. In the epilogue he mentions the destructive side of water in the worldwide legend of a great flood and speculates about the possible future applications of his discoveries, for example the ability to predict earthquakes The book concludes with a short biography of the author. As a work on consciousness it is valuable for discussing the factors that influence water and how the substance responds to these influences; those working in or appreciative of the visual arts will find the beautiful photo's reason enough to read the book. br /
 Pretty pictures, ugly book November 21, 2008
Fred Chappell
If you want to say something is scientific, you have to let people look at what you're doing. You have to let them try for themselves. And if they show that what you're doing doesn't work, you need to be honest about it and admit it yourself. Dr. Emoto fails on each of these points. br /This book is fake. The scientists in What the Bleep agree that this work is not convincing at all. (The non-scientists are willing to accept it.) br /There's nothing wrong with fiction. There's nothing wrong with astrology. There's nothing wrong with this book. There is something wrong with calling it truth. That's ugly. br /
 The Word August 27, 2008
Kathy Schreiber (Portland, OR USA)
This book teaches the vital importance of WORDS, the power they have, through measurable experimentation. The impact of our expressions of love and gratitude, hate and despair are no longer left in the esoteric realm. Masaru Emoto shows us through his work with water crystal photography how truly profound our effect is on the universe. Like ripples in a pond, what you put out does come back to you. Read this book then be prepared to transform your world.

One of the Most Important Books Ever Written August 25, 2008
David M. Labuda (Albuquerque, New Mexico)
If you have not already read this book, I urge you to do so immediately. It is clearly one of the most important books of our time and in my opinion one of the most important books ever written. Masaru Emoto provides an experiment in this book where you can prove to yourself the validity of his research and my grandchildren performed this experiment with outstanding results teaching them first hand an important truth about life that they will carry with them always. Not only will you love this book but, you will be compelled as I am to buy sevral copies and give them away to like minded people who have not yet read it. Enjoy!
