Dowsing and the Effects of Earth
Radiation
This article was compiled from
the book Earthrays-The Silent Killer?
by Harold Triste, herbalist and herb grower.
Geopathogenic: a term derived from
geo, the earth, and pathogenic, to create illness, is the term
used by science for these radiation zones. Under this umbrella
term, there are various theories, for instance, magna rays,
scatter rays, Earth faults, curry nets, Earth magnetic fields,
cosmic energy shadows, etc. Best known is the water vein
radiation.
Earth radiation causes a state of tension in the living organism
which results in short-term improvements of performance but
long-term exposure, particularly during sleep, results in a
debilitating geopathogenic influence.
Earth radiation disturbs and interferes with the normal
interaction between the hormonal and nervous system. The
interplay of glands, hormones and nerves may, depending on the
intensity of the radiation and the duration, lead to mutation of
body cells. In the case of trees, it leads to a change in the
structure of the wood.
Our body has a limited ability to deal with disturbances, but it
cannot cope with continuous tension or stimulation. Much of our
state of health is directly influenced by radiation, as for
instance, cramps, depression, insomnia, bed-wetting, asthma,
pains on the weak spots of the body etc. More problematic,
however, are the illnesses which result in permanent damage, for
instance cancer, where considerable statistical evidence between
the direct correlation between geopathogenic radiation and cancer
exist.
Very similar to the moon, and very likely caused by it, is the
change in Earth radiation, and particularly in intensity. One
experiences the highest radiation during periods of full moon,
decreasing with a decreasing moon phase. Whilst radiation lines
sometimes disappear totally, other new fields appear in different
locations.
In Central Europe, certainly fluctuations are known, but they are
relatively small and appear periodically. Water veins do change
but only slightly or not at all in their width.
In Papua New Guinea, water vein radiation is similar to Europe,
subject to minimal fluctuation although a common occurrence in
the appearance and disappearance of huge water veins. The cause
of this is likely to be found in the high local seismic activity.
Australia has a high incidence of continuous water veins.
Fluctuations in the intensity, however, are some of the most
extreme anywhere on the planet. The reason for these extremes is
the ancient nature of the continent and the extreme climatic
conditions. Long periods of drought are followed by periods of
flood, resulting in the shrinking and re-activating of the
subterranean watercourses.
The huge artesian basins are subject also to Earth radiation,
making it very difficult in those areas to find a permanent,
unradiated place of residence.
Plants cannot select their location nor can they avoid
detrimental environmental change. Similarly to the animals, there
are species which are not affected by Earth radiation or even
seem to benefit from it. Plants by their growth habits and by
their diseases, give much information about subterranean Earth
radiation. Trees, with cancerous growth cannot escape the notice
of even those least interested in nature.
The growth patterns of trees exactly indicate to us the alignment
of water veins, even their direction. Radiation forces the trees
into growth patterns that are unnatural to the species. Skillful
dowsing depends on an ability to read the clear signs of nature
and interpret them correctly.
Every person has this sixth sense frequently demonstrated by the
behavior of children. When we become educated, this intuitive
sense is replaced by a logical, numerical type of thinking. And
so we come to the conclusion that when there are no instruments
to measure Earth rays, there are no Earth rays.
The things we cannot prove don't exist. For radioactivity, we
have the geiger counter or an electricity voltmeter; for the
warning signals of Earth rays, only our subconscious. For our own
protection, we have to re-discover this ability and perfect it.
To find Earth radiation is simple, inexpensive and has nothing to
do with supernatural abilities. Anybody with a wish to learn has
succeeded, which has led me to the conviction that everyone can
find these disturbing influences with the aid of the divining
rod.
The most used and traditional rod is the willow branch. My father
and my grandfather only used that type of rod. I only learned 15
years ago about the steel rod and only began to use the
double-wire rod 5 years ago.
From my experience, beginners learn best with a double-wire rod.
Often the attempts with the willow rod prove to be unsuccessful
in the beginning, and once a wire rod is tried, the learner is
successful. A drawback of the wire rod is that strong wind may
affect the reading.
Willow rod and a pivoting steel rod should tilt slightly upwards,
the back of the hand pointing towards the earth. When crossing
the radiation lines, the rod turns powerfully downwards.
The double steel rod, on the other hand, is held very loosely in
the hands. With most support given by the little finger, the
thumb should not be crossing on the bend of the wires. The hands
should not touch but should be at least 10 centimeters apart.
Rods should be held slightly lower and when crossing veins, the
rods will move upwards and cross. Surely, all beginning is
difficult and, as already mentioned, you need to seek the advice
of an experienced dowser to check the readings. Both prepare a
sketch for comparison.
Making a rod: The traditional willow rod was cut fresh from the
trees. Other types of wood may also be used. The ends should be
pliable and the rod not too heavy. The steel rod may consist of
one piece of wire, or of two pieces of similar length, bent so
that one leg is 8 centimeters long and the other, at right angles
to it, 30 to 60 centimeters long.
Different materials are suitable. I use coathangers, sometimes
plastic coated. Old rusted fine fencing wire may be used. Some of
the best dowsers I have come across had the simplest of
instruments.
Most animals react strongly to the presence of water veins just
as human beings do. The difference is that we dismiss the sense
in our concentration on rationality.
The organs of the pig, as well as its alimentary tract, are
similar to that of the human. Observation of domesticated pigs
shows a high degree of sensitivity to Earth radiation. I observed
the situation where 100 sows were put into a special stable in
preparation for the arrival of the piglets. The mother pig would
seek a position away from the Earth radiation, the piglets would
also move there are a short warming-up under the heater. The rate
of squashed piglets for this particular box was much higher than
for any of the other boxes, whilst in the other boxes, the
piglets spent a good deal of time under the heater or around the
heater. The restless piglets in the box, subject to Earth
radiation, had a higher incidence of sickness and a lower growth
rate. Other influences, for instance draughts, were not affecting
this particular observation.
Hens are also very sensitive to Earth radiation. Hens are kept to
provide fresh, uncontaminated eggs. They should, therefore, be
kept in a location which is comfortable for them. Often it can be
found that hens avoid the quarters that are provided and do not
use the perches but rather roost in other places. They spend the
night on the floor in a corner though a comfortable perch exists.
In such cases, the cause is undoubtedly the existence of Earth
radiation.
There may be an explanation here for the use of cat skins in many
countries of the world for the alleviation of rheumatic
complaints. Are we perhaps here dealing with a type of
homeopathic effect? Why aren't warmer, softer furs of other
animals used for that purpose?
In my work with the complex issues of Earth radiation, I find
that many questions cannot be answered, and that any answer
raised further questions. Several claims made by experienced
dowsers have occupied me over many years. One of them is: Do
primitive people understand the connection between Earth
radiation, water veins and their negative effects on health?
Papua, New Guinea seemed to me to be the best place to find
answers to this question. The largest part of Papua New Guinea is
untouched by our civilization. Houses and paths between the
villages, as well as the location of villages, in the country at
least, are not planned in some distant office but determined by
the instinctive decisions of the natives.
It happens now and again that the entire population of a village,
after having occupied the site for many generations, will abandon
it for no apparent reason. An entire new village, sometimes only
several kilometers away, is built in the thick jungle. Why do
these people make this enormous effort of leaving and
re-establishing a new village?
The history of the abandoned village, Garagassi-Gorendu, is well
documented by the Russian explorer Nicolai Miloucho-Maclay. He
lived for several years in Garagassi and visited many neighboring
villages.
About 100 years ago, many people died here of various diseases.
Some houses were more affected than others. The possibility of an
epidemic was discounted in this case, because the tribe was in
close contact with several other tribes and none of those had a
record of such diseases. We checked the previously
densely-populated site. A radiation belt, wider than the old
village, was found criss-crossed by a series of smaller lines,
and this appears to have been the causes of the disaster.
Many other abandoned villages are known in Papua, New Guinea, as
well as in Fiji where I looked into this matter. These villages
have an enigmatic story in common, told by the surviving elders.
Suddenly people die of unexplained, different diseases, some very
young. Premature births and infertility increase. The
descriptions of the plight do not fit the typical pattern of an
epidemic or pest plague which may have been a suspected reason
for abandonment of the villages. Pigs are said to suffer problems
in these situations; a further reason for the desertions, since
pigs are highly valued by the native as a kind of currency.
The reason for the disaster overtaking these unfortunate villages
seems to be the occurrence of Earth radiation alone. Seismic
activity, common in New Guinea, could explain the sudden
occurrence of the radiation in such breadth and intensity. No
surprise then that the natives believed in curses by hostile
tribes or revenging ancestor spirits.
Earth radiation assists, amplifies or triggers disease. Our body,
to a certain degree, compensated for negative effects of Earth
radiation, but it is only a matter of time before the weakest
part of our system will succumb. This process is hastened by
genetic disposition and other negative influences.
The most detailed statistical evidence in regard to earth
radiation so far has been established for cancer. Over the years
I have observed many cases who, according to my theory, should
have enjoyed good health but were not. My assumption was based on
their natural diet, sufficient exercise, emotional well-being and
many were also living in a rural, coastal, relatively unpolluted
environment along the East coast of Australia.
Medical investigations undertaken on my advice revealed cancer.
In some cases, previous owners of the houses also suffered
cancer.
Although I am aware of a series of other cancer-causing factors
in today's world, I have yet to find a cancer case (skin cancer
excepted) without long term Earth radiation exposure in bed or at
work.
Similar connections have been found for depression, bronchitis,
insomnia, bed wetting and rheumatism.
We know Earth radiation mainly by its devastating outcomes, which
logically increases our desire for solutions. Since we do not yet
possess measuring instruments to demonstrate the radiation
phenomenon and effects, we are depending on the sensitivity and
behavioral indicators of plants, animals and man. This situation,
understandably, creates a climate for misuse by charlatans. It is
therefore particularly important that as many people as possible
develop dowsing skills and experience.
