The True Power of Water: Healing and Discovering Ourselves [Paperback]

Masaru Emoto (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: March 10, 2005

Internationally known researcher Dr. Masaru Emoto challenged prevailing ideas of illness with his previous book The Hidden Messages in Water, which demonstrated that molecules of water are affected by thoughts, words, and feelings, and that water contains extraordinary therapeutic powers unrecognized by Western medicine. In this follow-up, he takes that research one step further by exploring the healing power of water - for example, the curative capabilities of water, the capability of prayer to change water, the response of water to music, and how an individual can promote the purity of rainwater. He explores the limitations of Western medicine and explains how many conditions that are thought of as hereditary may not necessarily be so. Written for a wide range of audiences, from cultural creatives to advocates for natural living, The True Power of Water shows how this most basic liquid that is called the foundation of life also holds the key to sustained good health and well-being.

Amazon.com Review

This follow up to Dr. Emoto’s international bestseller The Hidden Messages in Water is the result of his latest scientific research into the healing properties of water. Building upon his previous work, which proved that water and water molecules are affected by our thoughts, words, and emotions, in The True Power of Water, Dr. Emoto makes the case that water literally holds the key to good health and shows how we can interact with it with our thoughts, intentions, and prayer to reverse illness.

Accompanied by numerous compelling photographs showing that water crystals are transformed according to the positive and negative thoughts they are exposed to, this book provides practical steps that anyone can use to improve their own well-being by learning how to consciously interact with water, the primary component of our bodies. Also discussed is Dr. Emoto’s research into the effects of prayer to purify rain water, helping to bring healing to the earth, as well as the mechanistic limitations of Western medicine and its understanding of both healing and disease. No one who reads Dr. Emoto’s works will ever take water for granted again.

5.0 out of 5 stars insights into water, consciousness, & vibrational healing, June 11, 2005

This review is from: The True Power of Water: Healing and Discovering Ourselves (Paperback)

Masaru Emoto follows up his Hidden Messages In Water book with another small book flowing with a wealth of insights about water and its role in the system of consciousness and vibration that manifests our existence. This new book reviews how Dr. Emoto became involved in his research on water and vibrational healing and includes a nice section of color water crystal photos. It discusses radionics, vibration, resonance, and the properties of waves, as well as the role of consciousness and the environment in informing water, the medium that makes up 70% of the human body. Emoto has noted the correspondences between body organs and emotions, showing how specific emotions generate vibrational disturbances in specific regions of the vibratory continuum that generates the physical body. Emoto's use of written words to create healing vibrations/information in water seems to be a useful means of anchoring intention. This book is more relevant for healing practitioners than Emoto's previous works, while it's also well-suited for laypersons. We can all benefit from Dr. Emoto's insights into how and why well-structured water is vital to life and vibrational harmony - and how we can use our own positive intent to transform water.

I recommend that you read The Hidden Messages in Water before this book.

I have been interested in learning more about Dr. Emoto's work in water crystal photography since I first saw some of these images at Jack Canfield's Breakthrough to Success seminar in August. My first step was to register at the library to borrow a copy of The Hidden Messages in Water. In the meantime, I saw that he would be speaking at the Learning Annex in New York City on October 6, and I went to the lecture. I came away with a stronger desire than ever to learn more, and was positively impressed by Dr. Emoto's sincerity in observing that his work has raised by more questions that it has answered. Finally, The Hidden Messages in Water became available, and I read and enjoyed that book. I was pleased to see that it explained more than his lecture.

I also ordered a copy of The True Power of Water to see what it contains. The book arrived yesterday, and it turned out to be a happy surprise when I read it last night.

First, Dr. Emoto explains his research methods more in this book than he did in The Hidden Messages in Water or in the lecture. The key piece of new information about the method is that after the water is frozen, the water is thawed. As the ice thaws, crystals begin to form around the edges of the ice. It is those crystals that are photographed by Dr. Emoto's staff.

Second, Dr. Emoto tells more about how the discoveries were made and his own background. He doesn't come from a scientific background . . . but rather than a perspective as an interested inquirer. He has gone about this the way most of us might do so.
But he has enlisted the help of people with scientific training to help him develop the methods.

Third, Dr. Emoto explains how HADO (vibrations) can cleanse water of its sources of pollution and improve your health. Basically, you expose water to certain kinds of writing and music. In addition, you emphasize HADO intensive foods.

He offers anecdotal evidence that these approaches might work.

Since there's not much involved to follow his advice, I decided to try it. I now have my own HADO bottle of water being cleansed and I plan to eat more of the HADO-intensive foods (they just happened to be among my favorites anyway).

It's too soon to tell how it will all work out, but I don't think I can go very far wrong eating more vegetables and drinking more pure water.

I suggest that you read and apply this book if you liked The Hidden Messages in Water. It cannot do you any harm . . . and it just might help you.

As before the photographs are wonderful. I was especially interested in the images that showed overcoming pollution and the negative effects of microwave energy (from ovens, cell phones and computers) with prayers and music.

May God bless you!

5.0 out of 5 stars MORE PROOF THAT THOUGHTS HAVE POWER, September 9, 2006

By

This review is from: The True Power of Water: Healing and Discovering Ourselves (Paperback)

What could be more powerful than taking photographs of water crystals when exposed to the "energy" of different words? Sounds funky, but that's exactly what Masaru Emoto has achieved. Read the data and see the photographs in this fascinating book.

The message being: If thoughts can do that to a water crystal, just think what our thoughts and words can do to us humans, who are composed mostly of water.

Fascinating, heh?
