WATER MEMORY





Water memory
As human beings and surfers, water can’t leave us feeling indifferent. Water is the basis of life, it’s the essence of all life forms on Earth and other planets.   
Water as a molecule has its own specific geometric shape, a tetrahedron; it creates very different structures depending on a multitude of factors.   

Just think of snow crystals, if you look at them under the microscope no two are exactly alike, they all have their specific geometric identity; even if you melt them separately and then freeze them again, you’ll get the same geometric shape as before. We can therefore deduce that each water molecule has its own identity.       

Several studies show that water holds memories of all the elements it experiences.  This is the concept on which, for instance, homeopathy is based: when water comes into contact with an element, even for a very limited amount of time (homeopathy often talks about infinitesimal amounts), it will hold geometric memories of this element’s structure and deliver its benefits to the person who drinks it.        

A Japanese expert, Dr. Masaru Emoto, over the past ten years has traveled around the world and held many conferences and seminars on water memory, at which he explains his method for studying and conducting experiments on water memory. He claims he can prove that by exposing water to external stimuli, such as words or pictures, and then freezing it (at a temperature of -5°C, i.e. ice crystals), it shows different geometric designs, depending on the type of information which it was exposed to. When exposed to positive words, such as “love” or “peace” or “Mother Teresa of Calcutta” water molecules show geometrically perfect shapes, such as crystals or flowers. When exposed to negative words, such as “evil” or “Adolph Hitler”, the same water molecules supposedly show a "definite distortion" and are "randomly formed".       
Clearly, it’s not the word in itself, but the state of mind of the person that says or writes it, that matters.

A few years ago, a French biologist, Dr. Jacques Benveniste, Head of the Digital Biology Laboratory in Clamart (F), claimed - and his claims were supported by his findings - that “water retains memory”.  

Dr. Benveniste discovered the phenomenon in question in 1984, while working on hypersensitive (allergic) systems; by chance he brought to light the so-called “high dilution phenomena”, which involves diluting a substance in water to a degree where the final solution contains only water molecules. He observed that this highly diluted solution initiated a reaction, as if the initial molecules were still present in the water: water kept a trace of the molecules present at the beginning of the dilutions. International scientific reaction was obviously immediate and undoubtedly a match for the implications of this discovery: incredulity, even rumors of fraud.

Dr. Benveniste was - and is - totally right; the reason’s very simple and clear. You can even do it at home: put some water in a pot and boil it; then place the pot in the freezer together with another pot full of cold water; you’ll see that hot water FREEZES FASTER than cold water!     

Why is that? It’s easy: the structures bonding water molecules with hydrogen bonds undergo a series of changes when they change from one state of matter to another, of which they keep a trace due to a phenomenon called “hysteresis” *. In other words, water remembers (and memorizes) the energetic and entropic* path it undergoes during the heating and then freezing processes and retraces it back faster. It “remembers” the whole “path” and traces it back. Try it at home! It works!            
Note:
* hysteresis = a phenomenon that occurs in magnetic and ferromagnetic materials, as well as in the elastic, electric, and magnetic behavior of materials, in which a lag occurs between the application and the removal of a force or field and its subsequent effect.
* entropy = a measure of the disorder or randomness of molecules due to a change in temperature.

Dr. Masaru Emoto is the author of “Messages from water”; after Dr. Lee H. Lorenzen Jr., a biochemist nutritionist and water researcher, introduced him to the issue, he started working on water crystals and demonstrated some interesting findings. He exposed distilled water to external stimuli, such as music, written sentences or essential oils, then crystallized it in the freezer (at a temperature of -5° C.) and then took pictures of it under the microscope… the pictures are really incredible and clearly show how water molecules react to external stimuli.        
If you crystallize spring or tap water of different cities, you get different results: ranging from chaos to melodies.  

In some civilizations, during certain merry occasions, such as weddings or baptisms, a large bowl full of water is placed in the middle of the party. At the end of the party, all the guests drink some of that water to take the joyful occasion with them.     
You can find rituals like this all over the world. Notwithstanding what scientists say, according to popular wisdom, water can retain the memory of its surroundings and various cultures benefit from this belief.     

Just think that every living thing is made of water, including the human body; water is the basis of life, and this is true for all life forms. Just think of how our negative thoughts affect us and how pollution affects the oceans…     

Certainly nothing we just said can be considered scientific, but we can use it as a starting point to reflect on or dream about the issue. Nothing and nobody can prevent you from thinking with your head, and most of all, nothing and nobody can prevent you from dreaming. The idea that water retains memories is clearly disarming and disturbing at the same time, if you think of the evil on which water has been flowing for many centuries, but it’s also an interesting idea that carries a message of hope for the future.
