THE WATER BLESSING

You’ll often see me blogging about the power of the mind, and how thought can affect our bodies.  Considering ninety percent of the human body is made up of water, it is logical that a direct correlation exist between the two (thought and water/body).   And there are actually scientific studies that support this assumption. 

Masaru Emoto, from Japan has published six books (1996-2007) that claims human consciousness has a direct effect on the molecular structure of water.  Emoto wanted to test the power of thought and words and its effect on water. So he taped words onto glass containers, so that the word could be read by the water inside. The water would respond to words like, love and gratitude, by crystallizing shiny and white, like snowflakes. But words like hate or even the name Hitler would not crystallize, and took on shapeless and unattractive forms.

Emoto’s experiment affirms that what we say and think has a profound effect on us physically. And to further this theory that thought can clean and heal polluted water, a demonstration of few hundred people, led by a Buddhist Monk, gathered around a polluted stream in Japan and focused on the water healing for an hour. Fifteen minutes after the meditation, it was reported that the water became visibly clearer.  The water would not crystallize before the experiment, but afterwards the water crystallized into beautiful shapes.

This not only authenticates that we have the power to heal ourselves; it also proves we have the power to heal the oceans, lakes, rivers and steams. 

In 2011, after the Deepwater Horizon Disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, a few of us began to meet once a month at the beach.  We would collect a small jar of water, and we would take the water home with us and tell it how grateful we were, and how much we loved it; meditating on the water healing from the oil and Corexit used by BP.  

I personally drew a little smiley face on my jar of water, with a red heart.  I taped the words Love, Gratitude, and Peace on the jar as well. 

We meet on the Thursday closest to the full moon.  Then we return the water to the Gulf of Mexico and collect a new jar of water to take home.

The moon also plays an important role in our ritual.  Not only does the moon have an effect on the tides, but it also amplifies human emotion; therefore enhancing the power of the prayer. 

And what’s really cool is that anyone can do this.  You do not have to be part of a group. No priest or monk needed.  You can do it where you live, or anytime on your own.  You have that ability to heal.
