Book Description

0946551979 978-0946551972 July 1995 1st
Seventy years ago, Viktor Schauberger (1885-1958), an engineer, observed and worked with natural energy processes which utilize the power of motion in a way which can harmonize nature and humankind. It was while working as a forest warden in his native Austria that the young Schauberger first became interested in the potential of cold, pure water in mountain streams. He went on to make his reputation in the 1930s as a maverick inventor of many revolutionary devices which worked by harnessing Earth's natural resources. Much of his work was considered so radical by American intelligence services that it was confiscated after World War II. A sequel to "Living Water", this book goes into the Schaubergers' intuition of the workings of energy in the movement of fluids, the purification of water and tree growth in relation to light - all issues with eco-technological implications for the future. It should be of interest for all people seeking energy ad engineering solutions to world problems.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best of the Schauberger books!, January 8, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Living Energies : An Exposition of Concepts Related to the Theories of Viktor Schauberger (Paperback)
I have most of the books based on Victor Schauberger's theories about water and energy which I connected to after having some profound spiritual experiences with water and wanted to know what the unexpressed potential might be with water, living energy and knowledge and the transmission of knowledge through water particles and vibrations....if you are looking for a very, very, practical and powerfully insightful book, on the scientific understanding of the true importance of water on all levels, and how energy REALLY works through FLOW...this is THE book to read and learn from and also learn how to observe and gain additional insights from what you are seeing. The books edited by Collum Coats I find to be more readable...this is not light and fluffy stuff... Enjoy! I did!

5.0 out of 5 stars Living Energies, May 23, 2001
This review is from: Living Energies : An Exposition of Concepts Related to the Theories of Viktor Schauberger (Paperback)
This book started it all! Callum Coats basically brought to "light" the resurgence of interest in Viktor Schauberger's theories. This is truly a brilliant work. Water as a carrier of vital energy information, trees as bio-condensers of energy between the deep earth and the sun, how self-cleansing rivers nourish the landscape, how the future of the earth depends on the replanting of natural forests, revolutionary agricultural implements, free energy heater-coolers, jet engines and gravity defying machines invented by Schauberger in the 30's and 40's, home power generators...it's pretty much all here. It was a hard book for me to put down once I started reading, and I go back to it continually for reference. This book pretty much sums up Schauberger's work, which Coats then compartmentalized and expanded in the "Eco-Technology" series with four other books. I would highly advise getting this book, first, and reading it thoroughly, before moving on to the series, as it is a fascinating preface into discovering who Viktor Schauberger WAS, and learning just how far-reaching his theories were, and aplicable to us, today.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Genius of the Last True Alchemist, July 26, 2002
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Living Energies : An Exposition of Concepts Related to the Theories of Viktor Schauberger (Paperback)
(First I should say that my copy of this book, by the same publisher, has a different sub-title than the one listed. Also, it's my understanding that this publisher (Gateways) was bought out, and I very much suspect that the book now in print by New leaf is more-or-less exactly the same as this one. Buy it!!)
Viktor Schauberger came from a long line of Austrian foresters, whose family motto was Fidus in Silvus Silentibus: "Faith in the Silent Forests." It's almost as if the trees & rivers were in his blood. His profound power of observation permitted him to see what others overlooked, and to draw conclusions that were both practical and utterly unique. He eschewed a university education because he knew it would deaden his mind, and he had learned enough in school already to find deep disagreement with a number of sacrosanct theories. He is probably best known (for those few who know of him) for his profound observations of water as a living being - most particulary the natural vortical inner motion of rivers, and their need to meander and maintain low temperatures, and the natural formation of springs. He also deeply understood the nature and needs of trees - which, in essence, create water, and have a tremendous effect on weather systems.
Because Viktor's observations, discoveries and inventions were so unique, and outside the strictures of establishment science, he had to create his own terminology. In this sense he was very much like the old alchemists, who had to coin new words for their discoveries. And too, Viktor's view of the elements was unlike any other. For example, with the exception of oxygen and hydrogen, he termed all the other elements "carbones." In fact his whole vision, with all of its extraordinary explication, is alchemical - not the least because it includes Spirit. It deals with natural transformations and energies: his dictum was "Comprehend and copy nature!"
Probably his greatest gift to us was his recognition of implosion, rather than explosion, as the natural, harmless means of releasing/creating energy, and he did much work in this area.
Not suprisingly he was much maligned by the powerful status quo. His life was fraught with treachery and great adversity.
Read this book and learn about a truly great man. You'll find it very exciting.
