Albert Einstein

ALBERT EINSTEIN was convinced of the authenticity of dowsing. He said, “ I know very well that many scientists consider dowsing as they do astrology, as a type of ancient superstition. According to my conviction this is unjustified. The dowsing rod is a simple instrument which shows the uncanny reaction of the human nervous system to certain factors which are unknown to us at this time. Over the last ten years much research has been done to clear the myth of dowsing. A report published by the Physicist Hans-Dieter Betz in the “Journal of Scientific Exploration” from Stanford University in 1995 illustrates results from a 10 year investigation into water dowsing. The investigation , undertaken in Sri Lanka, DRC, Kenya, Namibia, Yemen among others includes results and other countries from over 2000 drillings and is the most comprehensive study ever done in this field.. The investigation sponsored by a German Association of Technical Co-operation, was particularly aimed at finding innovative methods to find water in arid.regions and include geological and hydrological experts, experienced dowsers and a scientific group led by Dr. Betz THE RESULTS ILLUSTRATED A PHENOMINAL 98% SUCCESS RATE BY DOWSERS ACROSS 691 DRILLINGS. In addition to the success, it was found that certain dowsers could predict the depth of the find to a success rate of 10 to 20 percent. Geohydrologists given the same tasks took 2 months to evaluate a site where a dowser would complete his survey in minutes. The hydrologists had a 21% success rate, as a result the German Government sponsored 100 dowsers to work in arid zones of South India to find drinkable water.IN RUSSIA DOWSING IS TAUGHT AS A SCEINCE. Many of the top dowsers are doctors, engineers and scientists. Professor Alexander P.Dubrov, Prof. Of Biophysics, Doctor of Geophysics (author of Geomagnetic Fields of Life) is one of them. N.B. DOWSERS HAVE BEEN USED ACROSS THE USA TO LOCATE OIL WELLS. One of the most successful dowsers is Paul Clement Brown. From his contacts with leading oil and gas operators over a quarter of a century ago, Brown learned that many important oil fields were discovered , not by geological trained technicians , but by gifted dowsers.like himself. It is thus evident that through the ages dowsing has been chosen as an acceptable method by governments and academics alike for the unearthing of water and minerals and that it still survives today in light of the skeptics who dismiss it as a myth.

I think gravity is slightly stronger in areas where there is water, & maybe oil, Gold
etc. in large Quantities.

And if you properly do like they suggest & hold the stick Very loosely, When you cross that path,
the slight extra pull does it's job.

at least to me it makes more sense then hocus-pocus would.

though I'd like to know where the very first person
to grab a forked stick and walk with it in front of them
got the idea. It's certainly doubtful it was 100% by chance,
some kid or Geek was holding a Forked stick while walking
pretending to be holding a horses reins or something.
then even thought to dig when the stick dropped.

That's the thing. You have to look at it as something not yet fully understood, like many other things that still exist in nature. It's not about "hocus-pocus" anything. It's an electro-magnetic reaction occurring with the dowsers mind/body. A slight increase in gravity when standing over ground water doesn't explain a "gifted" dowsers ability to locate buried treasures at any depth. No matter what you believe it's hard to run away from the fact that yes, for some of us, it is possible to locate precious metals and gemstones (or anything else for that matter) by holding an dowsing instrument of some kind and seeing the image of the object in our minds. There's so much still to be learned about the nature of our thought forms and the impact/reaction they have on physical reality. Quantum physicists are really just beginning to reveal the true power of the human mind.
