1 == DOWSING DIVINATION == - (Traditional and Advanced) == PART ONE == My first thought, when my original thread <AND THE TRUTH SHALL BE KNOWN Youll see!> became increasingly more difficult for members to firstly read right through and then later find points they wanted to refresh on, was simple a SUMMARY, a FAQ section and a few additions. But, life is never that simple it should be, but it isnt. In the last couple of weeks (at the time of writing) there has grown among several members a significant degree of confusion as to what the Pendulum is all about and this has now reached such an extent that a couple of members had decided to devise questions and a method to test the validity of the Pendulum to give correct answers. No matter how good the intent, that approach will not workbecause (as any Dowser will tell you, and there are a vast number worldwide in virtually every country), the Pendulum has a mind of its own. So, by testing its validity it can only be a test of whether it is worth using or not. And, since the Pendulum has never shown a will to be tested, in the many hundreds of years that its use has been documented, it has invariably given wrong (or trick) answers when such an attitude is adopted. The end result therefore, for those who would approach it in that fashion, can only lead to it being useless as a tool for Advanced Divination or even Traditional Dowsing. to those particular users, and anyone else who is led to doubt its ability to provide meaningful and productive responses so this modified course is designed to rectify that problem, make everyone happy, and provide a lot of new interest along the way because I shall now present the best methods of using the Pendulum from a different angle (along with introducing an equivalent dowsing tool, the L-rod) by incorporating Traditional methods as a solid foundation, but retaining the Advanced method where appropriate. The Advanced method I presented is much quicker to learn for the purpose intended in my first course on this forum, for inner-development and leading to the gaining of telepathic ability for those who then became receptive, since this is achieved in a natural and easy way when the person is ready and that is why it was given to me by my guide to present here at the Astral Pulse. It had worked with 100% success and rapid development of skill, teaching it on a one-to-one basis and even in groups face to face. But, here on the Internet was always going to be an experiment as to how many would actually follow the course, because it was a first time in this format of teaching. Had it been published in a book, then it would have been no

problem, since the reader, as an individual working alone, would have been able to take it in and absorb what it meant for them. But here we have found conflicting views, since each person is different naturally nothing wrong with that, and it was hoped that in the sharing of each persons experiences ideas would flow - except that when there is a measure of doubt instilled in the minds of those who are otherwise making good progress it has become a case of one step forward and two steps back at those times (as quite a number have reported when contacting me direct) and this necessitated much more work on my part (and later Parmenion, working with me also along with Karek) burning the midnight oil to get things back on track. But, it was my guides intention that the method should be presented FREE to all, rather than being restricted to those who could purchase a book or attend some class so, it is still our intention to teach the Advanced method albeit in a slightly modified way to incorporate now some elements of Traditional Dowsing within that framework. As members will see, as we progress through this course, there will be ample scope in Traditional Dowsing pursuits to test with the Pendulum, and this will satisfy all those who have doubted its validity due to wrong answers being obtained. You may have noticed, but I shall repeat it I used the phrase Test WITH the Pendulum, and not Test the Pendulum and in that is the key to the way forward. I am sure that members will find the projects I have carefully selected to include in this course of interest, even exciting, because they explore many, many things in a scientific way but by a means that science can not understand with its limited technology at this stage in Mans evolution. The Pendulum is indeed a very powerful tool in fact, in the right hands, a truly precision instrument. In this way it can be regarded like a voltmeter as a rough analogy, because a voltmeter is a precision instrument but can give very misleading results if not understood properly. (I will not go into details about the voltmeter, but I can assure you as electronics was my field that it has to be used correctly to give a precise reading). Certainly, it would be a poor electrician, or even technician, who took the voltmeter or any intstrument apart to test its validity, since that would be the same as reinventing the wheel and the same applies to the Pendulum, which has been successfully in use for hundreds of years and has always given reliable results when used properly, often leading to new scientific discoveries both as a result of information dowsing (divination) and through Traditional Dowsing (investigating such as ley-lines and earth energies, as well as water /oil /mineral dowsing). We shall look at many of those things, and others besides, as we proceed through the course, and give methods as appropriate. To keep it as easy (and quick) as possible without sacrificing any of the

essential features of Dowsing Principles, I have careful chosen those points that will not be confusing to the newcomer, especially since we shall be incorporating Advanced mode with the Traditional Default mode. And, at the end of the course, a list of many books will be provided for further reading for those who want to delve deeper and maybe take up the Art/Science of Dowsing Divination. That list will not be provided until the end because experts differ slightly in their methods, and there is no absolute standard for yes/ 'no' movements (the reason for this is fully explained in section two) and that would cause problems at this stage, though the reader will have no such problem or confusion when encountering other texts later once the basics have been grasped with the Advanced mode movements which work as well and usually much better in any application of Dowsing, as well as understanding and being able to use the Traditional Dowsing techniques. Despite the fact that there are Dowsing Societies with large memberships in virtually every country in the world now, some people still havent heard about dowsing. In the UK, the British Society of Dowsers was founded in 1933 by Colonel AH Bell, and the American Society of Dowsers Inc is the largest in the world with 75 affiliated Dowsing Chapters throughout the USA with additional smaller groups in many areas too. I will be supplying a list of many of the Societies Worldwide, and items such as Pendulums and L-rods can be purchased from those and many local groups. Dowsing groups tend to form near sites of antiquity and within reach of ley-lines which are of great interest for exploratory dowsing and of course there are ley-lines on every continent, as well as many Sacred Sites where earth energies will be found. I shall be discussing how you can detect these energies yourself with the Pendulum and L-rod tools, check them against the findings of others (and many scientific and careful studies have been done over a long period of time, so there is much that is fascinating and rewarding to learn as you proceed with these tools), and who knows you may even in time, if you become a serious Dowser, discover new things to add to the already extensive knowledge that has been gained by these investigation devices which have already opened the door to new frontiers of discovery over the centuries. History records that some of the most famous people were dowsers, and these include such as Leonardo Da Vinci, Robert Boyle (the founder of the Royal Society), Sir Isaac Newton, Johan Ritter (the founding father of electrochemistry), Thomas Edison, Edgar Cayce, Albert Einstein.

I quote from one source: <<In 1897, Sir JJ Thomson made one of the greatest scientific discoveries when he isolated the electron The control of the electron has transformed the 20th century with dazzling technologies from computers to television receivers. For this, Thomson was knighted and given the Nobel Prize. During a presentation to a group of eminent scientists he requested that science should turn its attention to the physics of dowsing but this plea fell on deaf ears. To JJ Thomson, dowsing was for real!>> Although mainstream science still tends to ignore Dowsing (yet has opinions on it not a very scientific thing, to have opinions, it should at least research it first!) but some scientists do use the Pendulum in their work nevertheless, as did some of the more forward thinking scientists through the centuries. Many Dowsing Societies have their own Scientific Advisors, and significant studies have been done with EEG analysis of expert Dowsers who have been found to exhibit Alpha, Beta and Theta brainwave patterns while Dowsing. A report on Brain Wave activity in the 1980s by an American, Dr Edith Jurka, MD, who recorded the brain wave activities of Dowsers using a mind mirror developed by Dr C Maxwell-Cade based on Electroencephalographs (EEG) states that remarkable correlations were found. When in the Dowsing mode, the beat wave beta frequency of the thinking state lowers in frequency to the Alpha state which is a meditative state. When a dowsing target is found there is a burst of the lower frequency state of around 4 to 7 cycles per second, which corresponds to brain wave activity in dreaming sleep. In 1996, a team headed by Edward Stillman, the scientific advisor to the American Dowsing Society, did a similar investigation of Dowsers, using modern computer controlled EEG equipment which can generate coloured pictures. This research confirmed Dr Jurkas findings and broke new ground on this subject. Edward Stillman, commenting on the latest research, said: Dowsing appears to be a truly unique and creative human altered state of consciousness. In laymans terms, the following is a very brief outline, regarding the alpha, beta and theta states as they apply to Dowsing (D), correlated with Transcendental (T) Meditation and Zen (Z) Meditation: Present in.. T-Meditation --- Alpha and Theta waves Z-Meditation --- Beta, Alpha and Theta waves D Activities --- Beta, Alpha and Theta waves <--(DOWSING) For reference:

(cycles per second = Hertz (Hz) BETA ----- above 14 Hz --- Conscious waking state, processing information. ALPHA --- 8 to 13 Hz ------ Reflective, Contemplative, Restful THE DOWSING MENTAL STATE THETA --- 4 to 7 Hz -------- Dreaming sleep DELTA --- 0.5 to 3 Hz ------ Deep, dreamless sleep The achieving of all three states (Alpha, Beta and Theta) in the use of this tool by a person, indicates that the person becomes naturally reflective, contemplative and restful as they go about their Dowsing, and this is the key to their receptivity (even telepathy for those who become advanced in their constant use of the Pendulum). Even more remarkable is the fact that Dowsing has been dated back to at least 6,000 BC, which indicates that those ancient civilizations, and even earlier Man, were able to achieve those states. Sig Lonegren, the America Spiritual Dowser, reported on Neolithic Cave Art and carvings of Dowsing tools in Tassili, Algeria a site known as the Library of Dowsing Tools and depicted there is a character holding a dowsing tool watched by onlookers with obvious interest, seemingly giving a dowsing lesson to them. Dowsers are also depicted on ancient Egyptian bas-reliefs and Cleopatra employed Dowsers to find gold. Dowsers were a part of the ancient Stonemasons craft, and the Pyramids were built to very great precision using the Pendulum (the true ancestor of the now humble builders plumb-line which did far more than hang straight when in the hands of those ancient buildiers, since they used it to ask questions regarding the construction by Sacred Geometry, as well as for orientation and extremely accurate measurement, all with that one tool!). China too had its Dowsers, and a depiction of them appears on the statue of the Chines Emperor, Kwang Su, who reigned around 2,200 BC. Agricolas book De Re Metallica (1550) includes an illustration of Dowsers prospecting for minerals. A great deal of Dowsing information and methods comes from France where, in the Middle Ages Bishops, Abbots of Monasteries, and priests resisted the Churchs denunciation of Dowsing (which the Church said was the work of the Devil) and those clerics who preserved the documentation clearly thought otherwise, so we must be thankful to them because much could have been lost otherwise. More recently, the American General Patton employed Dowsers to locate underground water supplies in arid regions. Dowsing was even officially sanctioned by the White House during the Vietnam War for use by the marines. It is documented that the American Military created a Dowsing School to train the marines in Dowsing

countermeasures against the Vietcong guerrilla fighters. The Vietcong tactic was to strike suddenly, then vanish into foxholes and networks of underground tunnels or behind false walls in village houses. They also set deadly and varied booby traps. So, the Dowsing School replicated all those situations. The marines were trained to Dowse (they actually used L-Rods, which are very versatile in that type of situation, though the Pendulum can do the same thing). In this way, the marines learned how to locate tunnels and even count how many people occupied the tunnels. They also became skilled in detecting hidden booby traps by Dowsing for them. Captured guerrilla fighters must have been totally perplexed as to how the marines had so easily found them hiding in tunnels and behind false walls. Dowsing helped to win that War, but it was not a weapon of war, nor even to aid the Americans win it it was solely a means of saving lives that otherwise would have been heavily lost, and so its use was permissible in that situation by the Higher Realms, the source of information give to dowsers through the tools used. It is interesting to note, however, that despite the enormous and officially acclaimed success of Dowsing in the Vietnam War, the Military no longer sanctions Dowsing simply because the generals found that only positive minded marines could use the Dowsing methods and the Military wanted every man-jack to be able to use it, just as every one used a rifle but the Higher Realms did not go along with that, and the non-positive marine could not make neither L-Rod nor Pendulum move, or if it did then it would not move reliably so the generals took a huff about that and decided that if not all could use it then none would use it in future, and it stopped being standard issue. Again, we have adequate documentation here that the Pendulum (or indeed L-Rod, or even the Y-rod for that matter) will only work if used positively and with great respect for it, and not if abused. The L-Rod will be discussed later in some applications, since it has versatility in information dowsing (or spiritual divination) and direction-pointing in the finding of objects and following tracks, though the Pendulum is also able to do all these things and is the better choice for unobtrusiveness, ease of use, as well as handy to slip into the pocket and of course, the Pendulum is the best tool for Map Dowsing (this will also be discussed later, with methods given) Uri Geller, although made famous for his ability to bend spoons, plus stop and start watches and clocks, is an expert information dowser and he is one of the best exponents of Map Dowsing for all types of minerals, oil, and gas. Many large industrial corporations have employed Uri Geller for this. Unlike the many tunnel-visioned scientists who either ignore dowsing or do not believe in its scope, the industrial corporations have no hang ups about dowsing., as they get results. In fact, top dowsers working in all fields in the industrial sector are paid many thousands of dollars an hour for their

services in locating mineral, oil, gas, and water and most often the dowser earns his/her money simply by looking at a map and asking the Pendulum questions; typically the whole job can often be done in 30 minutes or so actually, compared with the months it would take engineers working on sites on land or sea (even if they were able to find the sites in the first place) and thus the thousands paid to the dowser saves the industrial giants many more thousands that otherwise would have had to have been paid out to teams, as well as saving enormous amounts of time. But, such expertise is not the province of the ordinary dowser those expert dowsers know a bit more than the average dowser, and have a communication link that is telepathic (as does Uri Geller), so much practice is needed and definitely a positive and receptive approach is essential from the start. And, most importantly, the Dowser cannot work if he has ego or nit picks about the answers, although it must be understood that the Information Dowser does not take an answer as gospel but only as part of a thorough investigation by many more questions gerally. Information dowsing (as also in ordinary dowsing) relies on constant re-evaluation of answers received, and much questioning is essential to obtain a clear picture, a homing-in on the knowledge. Doubting, as any dowser will tell you, has a detrimental effect and can even result in the Dowsing tool just refusing to work for the person. Major-General J Scott-Elliot, a past president of the British Society of Dowsers, mentions in his book, Dowsing one mans way, that Dowsing works best when there is a need to know. Other dowsers readily concur with this. Dennis Wheatley, President of the UKs Wyvern Dowsing Society and a Professional Dowsing Instructor, also writes From my own experience I agree with him. Party Tricks when there isnt a real need to know tend to go awry, and I never indulge in these. As I see it, if a Dowser tries such tricks, he or she is engaged in an egotistical exercise. The Dowsing tool, whether it be L-Rod or Pendulum, has its particular uses and methods depending on the field of investigation but it is always a tool for investigation, and always the accent should be on homing-in on the answer and not blind acceptance of an answer or doubt as to whether the Pendulum is accurate. In the case of Traditional Dowsing for ley-energies and such, or the finding of roman coins in a field, this will become selfevident in the methods used. But in the case of Map Dowsing, where one is not even on site (and therefore it cannot even be said that there is a relationship between the Pendulums response and some factor however invisible it may be to the eye) the need to trust the Pendulum becomes apparent, and very necessary if results are to be obtained. In Map Dowsing one simply sits at a table with the Pendulum and applies methods to determine the location of whatever is being sought even a missing person and the Pendulum leads the seeker to the appropriate area of the map where what one is seeking will be (and subsequently, on visiting the site, is) found. Map Dowsing can be a process of navigation-type methods and questions, but Information Dowsing (and also Spiritual Divination) are purely question

sessions to arrive at an answer or fuller picture of a situation. Since Spiritual Dowsing, in particular, often deals with other realms or at least new frontiers (scientific, philosophical, or whatever) there is often no evident yardstick or readily-tangible proof that can be compared with findings, and scenarios painted, as the questioning unfolds new landscapes for investigation; so, it is vital to explore as fully as you can and follow as many trains of question/thought as possible, down all the alleyways if necessary, until you arrive at a picture that makes sense to you. This includes recursive and oblique questioning techniques, jumping back to an answer given some time back and re-exploring it from an different angle, and other varied questioning methods so it is a skill which has to be acquired, and the only way to do that is by as much practice as possible. As many a Dowser has said, It should be a way of life, rather than just an interesting hobby if one wants to become really adept so, intuitive thinking is the key, clear questioning is the approach, and positive attitude is essential. In the last fifty years, Dowsing has become incorporated into many organisations, businesses and interest groups even taught by some Education Authorities - who employ Dowsing professionals and instructors. Dowsing has been embraced by UNESCO, the Canadian Ministry of Agriculture, the Russian and also Czech armies, and major corporations worldwide. Cambridge University accepts Water Divining as an approved method, and Russian Universities offer a Masters Degree in all types of Dowsing Divination as well as their psychologists and psychiatrists employing Dowsing tools in their research and diagnostic work. In Russia in particular (although it has been expressed by Dowsing operators worldwide) it is quoted that they are astounded that Dowsing is not highly regarded in the Western World. In recent years, however, thousands of doctors in the western world now complement their work by diagnostic dowsing, but Alternative Medicine practitioners have been doing this for many years now alongside their Homeopathy, Reflexology and similar treatments. I, personally, use the Pendulum alongside Reflexology, Reiki and other therapies, in diagnostic analysis of food allergies etc and likewise of auras and chakras, all extremely effectively. So, with those words to bear in mind, and the example of those other people named in this brief background of Dowsing History, we now move on to seeing what can be done and how to do it as we explore the many fascinating avenues of discovery that Dowsing opens up. THE FOLLOWING SECTIONS IN THIS SERIES SHOULD BE READ THROUGH IN SEQUENCE TO GAIN A FULL PICTURE, AND THEN INDIVIDUAL SECTIONS MAY BE STUDIED AND PRACTICED WHERE INSTRUCTIONS ARE GIVEN. end of Section 1

S.3 --- USING L-RODS AND PENDULUMS In this section we look at both the L-rod and also the Pendulum, and see how they actually work. In many applications the L-rod is interchangeable with the Pendulum. By examining how each works, it is then possible to get a much better understanding than just using one particular tool right from the start, though the user may well choose to later use one rather than the other according to their preference. Outside of Dowsing Societies the Pendulum has tended to have become more popular (though its field of application narrower outside of dowsing), and this is largely due to its extreme portability, as it can be slipped into the smallest pocket, compared with the L-rods, plus the New Age interest in crystals and the extensive manufacture and promoting of the crystal pendulum as a divination tool. As a result of the crystal pendulum boom, so to speak, many people are not aware of all that lies behind it, both in the wealth of divination experience people have had over the centuries and the many versatile uses of the Pendulum other than the perceived question/answer mode (a part of Information Dowsing) which has sadly made divination almost appear to be just a game, and the Pendulum just a toy, oten an object of suspicion and even ridicule by those who are ignorant of the facts and who may also erroneously compare it and put it in the category of such as the Ouija board (use of the Ouija board and similar devices designed and used by those who often know next to nothing about the proper way to go about divining information) all of which has contrived to give the Pendulum a bad image that is in every way undeserved. So, this course seeks to redress that imbalance, and this section in particular now addresses the differences and similarities in those two tools, the L-rod and the Pendulu, which work from exactly the same source. Since many more people have heard about the Pendulum than the L-rod tool, we shall start by looking at the latter which the reader is very likely not to be familiar with or even heard of. For the purpose of this course, and to get the maximum understanding and therefore benefit, it is assumed that the reader will have bought, or made, both L-rods and a Pednulum (see the previous section for details of this and also other useful information where appropriate). If the reader has not yet got these tools, then they can be made later after reading this section, but it is strongly advised to read the previous section in any case (and in fact to read all sections of this course carefully) to follow what is being explained, because important information may well be in a different section due to the need to keep the course as compact as possible and avoid repetition unless it is a recap that is given along with further explanation for a particular application. The essential difference between L-rods and Pendulums, is that the L-rod swivels to give an answer, and additionally can be used to point in the direction of what is sought. The Pendulum, on the other hand, swings, from

side to side or in and out to give an answer (generally, yes or no), and in addition can also be used to point, though in this case (since it swings) it has to be determined which end of the swing is the direction pointed to, and in that respect the L-rod (only one rod, rather than two in this case) is easier to use. The Pendulum tends to be used more for Information Dowsing/Divination than the L-rod but either can be used. In Map Dowsing the Pendulum has obvious advantages due to its smallness, but again the Lrod can be used for this. Dowsing L-rods are preferred by many for what is called prospecting and for this 2 L-rods are used in searching for oil, water, minerals, roman ruins and buried treasure (coins etc) and many other things. Again, using different techniques , the Pendulum can do the same thing as L-rods in many applications. So, this section will compare the different techniques in a general sense, and this will greatly aid the student dowser in an understanding of what they are doing and how best to go about it with confidence. RELATING THE PENDULUM TO DOWSING For those who have used the Pendulum for Information or Spiritual Dowsing only, or who have read various accounts of what the Pendulum can do in those things there is often only a vague notion, or even none at all, of its potential other than in that particular area. In addition to this, many who practice esoteric arts such as witchcraft and New Age interests (particularly with crystals) have latched on to only a small part of what can be done with the Pendulum each particular application tends to be isolated or focussed in one particular direction, for example a growing number of Reiki practitioners now use the Pendum for chakra and aura diagnosis, and some of these move tentatively into that area known as Information Divination but rarely understand more than what they have read in the odd book that happens to deal with their particular field of interest, so there often arises an element of suspicion or fear about contacting some unknown source outside of the area they feel comfortable with. This propensity to have a level of fear associated with the use of the Pendulum is due to how it has been incautiously used without looking at the whole spectrum of dowsing so it is often wrongly associated with ouija boards and other divination aids that have sprung up and have been used by people who most often did not have any real overall understanding, and even books have been written by some people that fail to give anywhere near an overall or even balanced picture. Notions abound regarding what the source is that provides information of whatever kind through the Pendulum, and these are often brightly coloured by the various conceptions and misconceptions in our society. There are those who feel it is the way to contact their guardian angel, some Higher Intelligence or God, or Alien Beings. Little wonder then, that there is confusion and even Fear about it. And yet, it has been used in Dowsing for 8,000 years, even before the L-rod came along (the Y-rod, or more accurately Y-twig, was the other main Dowsing tool used along with the

Pendulum right from the earliest time in the Ancient Civilizations and even by Neolithic so-called cavemen who were in fact extremely knowlegeable about it and many other things that are not generally realised by those who have only read 3 or 4 paragraphs in some school textbook). Dowsers do not have such problems with the Pendulum that New Age people often have, and it is simply regarded as being an alternative tool to the L-rod in applications where it is more suited because of its portability essentially. A Dowser is not really concerned about what the source is, and neither does he or she have any Fear of lower entities or suchlike entering the tool which says something about the conditioning that pervades many esoteric groups causing polarisation due to them only understanding the raw basics (if indeed they understand that, much less its potential!) applicable to their own particular in thing in the broader context, plus hysteria and shudders from those outside such groups who neither understand what is really going on in such groups nor have any understanding of a balanced nature. Dowsing is an Art/Science, very old and stable, and has never hand those problems. Indeed, on the contrary, it has done much to help science, although the mainstream scientific community (itself polarised) does not accept this, and many famous people of science and other fields have used the Pendulum in their work (as described in Section 1). So, the reader can proceed with confidence that there are no negs in the Pendulum, and they can best assume that any negativity comes from conditioning, doubt or lack of respect for the tool, in whatever quantity those things may be present. And any Dowser will tell you that with the aforementioned baggage you are not likely to succeed with the Pendulum or L-rods until that negativity has been banished and replaced with positivite, receptive attitude and a quiet contemplative frame of mind, and that with those things in place you will then progress well if you have diligence in learning and practice your dowsing regularly as a way of life rather than a mere interest, and that will also aid inner-development giving a firm foundation, without fear, for when you come to do Information Dowsing. To put it bluntly, if L-rods had been taken up by the minority esoteric communities then they too would have attracted the Fear Syndrome about negs and lower entities. But they have not, and do not give problems that the Pendulum is said to give, even when they are used for spiritual dowsing. When all is said and done, they are both simply pieces of matter that interact with an unseen source, and in dowsing in all its aspects they work exptremely well and accurately, as has been proven for millennia. It is like everything else in this world, it will be what you want it to be and work or malfunction accordingly. Dowsing works, and all it requires is your confidence in it. PENDULUM MOVEMENTS The Pendulum has two basic types of movement; lateral (side to side, or in and out) plus circular (which may be clockwise or anti-clockwise). It can be programmed to respond with various meanings attached to each

movement as the user chooses, if they wish. Suprisingly, Dowsers do not have a standard for the various movements, and it is left to the teacher (or the book) to explain the movements of the Pendulum, and this applies also to esoteric groups that promote the use of the Pendulum outside Dowsing. So, there is actually considerable confusion as to what should be a correct movement as one tries to compare the movements advocated by one group and then another. Nevertheless, the Pendulum works, because of the programming principle. Before we look at various meanings attached to any particular movement of the Pendulum, I want to talk about programming so that the reader will have a better understanding. We are all programmed from birth to fit into our environment (it is actually a much bigger story than that, since we are actually programmed before birth but that is something that the reader can investigate for his or her self, using the Pendulum to ask questions; that is spiritual dowsing). In our initial programming we exhibit those traits that are us, and this is how WE REACT to our environment. Conditioning is different, and that is how our environment expects us to react, as the norm in any particular group we find ourselves in. Conditioning (the insistance that we should comply) takes away the Free Will in our present state of evolution. Higher Beings do not take away Free Will, because they have obtained the Wisdom as they have advanced in evolution, that conditioning to conform is not the opposite of anarchy, thus they have achieved a state of self-regulation simply by obtaining that Wisdom and teaching it to shape their society. (Again, a very worthwhile topic for investigation using the Pendulum). So, we have in our present stage of evolution a need to remove that baggage of conditioning if we are to effectively communicate with Higher Realms, the source, whatever you wish to call it, because while there is conditioning there is colouration in our notions. We need to apply intent individually, and not by group demand in our lives, to effectively evolve and that ability to project intent is built into our prior programming as an individual. What has already been built into us, and is at a subconscious level in terms of how we can understand it, is a connection to what is termed the Collective Consciousness and that connection is to a group consensus, an entirely different thing to group demand. So, when we programme the Pendulum we are tapping-on to a facility of that group consensus, that permits from that time on a functionality which the Pendulum will adopt and exhibit. And that programming is done by simply having the intent for it to so be. It should then simply be a matter of instructing the Pendulum to assign a meaning to a particular movement, and this in fact does work. We intend for it to be so (either by strong intent in our mind, or by thinking of it, or telling it in words). If we dont programme in this fashion, it will nevertheless still provide certain movements in reaction to certain questions or situations (such as finding something we intended to find) so it already has what we describe in our present computer technology jargon as a default mode. We could, by experiment deduce what the meaning might be, but we would not understand all of the movements. Why, for example,

does a Pedulum sometimes circle one way and sometimes another? Some have found that the clockwise circling seems to indicate yes for them, others say it is the anti-clockwise movement that gives a yes response to them. Yet others still, find that a side to side (or even in and out) appears to indicate yes. If we didnt programme it, then we might assume it is purely arbitrary. Yet, there is clearly an intelligence there in the Pendulum somehow, for it does give consistent answers when used according to certain prescribed methods. So, we can assume that it is programmed at the source to give those evident indications. But why are those movements different for some people? We can note that within each group of people (such as individual Dowsing Societies) there tends to be broad agreement, as to what each movement means, but another group will ascribe different meanings. What is clear, is that overall a person within a particular group can pick up a Pendulum for the first time, and find it gives similar movements to what are obtained by others in that group. Hence, returning to what we were discussing earlier, there is clearly a group consensus. In fact, this exists at a subconscious level, because the person picking up the Pendulum for the first time may not in fact have had the full meanings explained to them. No Dowsers have made a study of this, nor even thought about it. The philosophy of dowsing is to build upon what has become the norm, though it is not here a group demand but a subconscious group consensus, and in that there is now an added dimension. Because the source accepts the majority consensus and makes it the default for whichever group it is that is using it. That, explained my guide to me, is the way it is. So, when my guide decided she wanted me to tell people about the Pendulum one of the main things was to stress that it should be used for Information/Spiritual Divination in what she termed the Advanced Mode, to differentiate between the Default Mode that the Pedulum assumes when a Dowser, or an average person just picks the Pendulum up. (There is actually a default chakra/aura mode that is becoming a standard in that field also, and which the source recognises and adopts when the Pendulum is applied to such things by a Reiki practitioner). Because a Pendulum is very likely to go immediately into default mode, my guide asked me to tell people to whom I teach the Pendulum, to instruct it to Go to Advanced Mode to ensure it will give consistent standard responses for all users, unless a certain movement is required to be reprogrammed for the duration of a particular set of tasks. In fact, and this is interesting in the light of what we have been discussing here, those who have read my previous texts on this (in the <AND THE TRUTH SHALL BE KNOWN Youll see> thread) or read through this course, will find that invariably the Pendulum will automatically go immediately, without being specifically programmed by the user, into Advanced Mode, since it is in the mind of the person, effectively an intent, albeit at a subconscious level so not recognised as such by the person encountering the Pendulum for the first time (when, remember, it would otherwise normally adopt default, or

Dowser Mode). Only if it should be found to have gone to default mode, therefore, would it need to be instructed to change to Advanced with the Go to.. programming instruction (and this of course can be used to revert back to default Dowsing Mode at any time, if desired as may be found to be the case for certain applications in this course, should the user wish to do that, or try both modes). Thus far, we have seen how the Pendulum has come over the years to adopt a default (or standard) mode for the Dowser (albeit that there are slight differences between meanings ascribed according to the particular group). But, there was a time before Dowsing Groups existed, and even before the art was kept and cherished by such as the French Monasteries and clergy in defiance to the church (and who thankfully kept many of the principles safe), and the Pendulum was used in Ancient Times used stonemasons who already knew the Art of Dowsing, and they must have learned it from somewhere, from some time previous. At some time long long ago, the Art and its methods had been therefore given to someone, before any groups became established (whether stonemasons, or otherwise), and the Pendulum the oldest of all dowsing tools was taught to others from the mists of time before any recorded history that has survived (some ancient philosophers wrote about Atlantis, and a crystal technology, and even Neolithic art depicts dowsers in action, along with pictures of their dowsing tools). So, there was an original defacto standard method and understanding that went with it. That method is what my guide now terms the Advanced Mode, because originally it was very advanced, and could do more than what Dowsers now use it for. Over the centuries much was lost, and we only have what has been preserved and carried on by Dowsers. Due to persecution and fear impressed on people over the ages by those who wanted to control the masses, the Divination side was suppressed and much more was lost, especially in the understanding, of that aspect of the Art. Those things I am now explaining in a simple manner, as instructed by my guide, for the reader to begin to understand what the potential of the Pendulum really is. INITIALISING THE PENDULUM FOR YES AND NO RESPONSES In Information and Spiritual Dowsing Divination you will need to have a movement that means yes, and one that means no. These are fundamental. As explained in section 2, the user should allow the Pendulum to assign a particular movement to each of yes and no, since this will obtain the best sensitivity for the individual due to the fact that the genetic make-up of that particular person is a crucial element in that because of their dynamic energy field. But, we have also seen that there is confusion of movements ascribed in dowsing, since this is not understood by them. So, the first-time user should initially - after allowing a couple of seconds for the Pendulum to settle (this is what my guide terms log-on) before proceeding after picking it up - instruct the Pendulum to go to Advanced mode. Then,

the instruction GIVE me a Yes, please should be issued. Observe which way the Pendulum moves. This should be either left to right across the body (the Pendulum should be held central in front of the chest, and about 6 inches forward of it), or it will be in and out, at right-angles to the body (which is why there should be sufficient space for that movement, hence the 6 inches). Next, the instruction, GIVE me a No, please must be issued. It is not sufficient to assume that because one way is yes then the other way must therefore be no. The act of issuing these two instructions is for the source to assign these two movements and their associated meanings of yes and no. Again, check that all is in order with this, and that the Pendulum has indeed given a movement that is at right-angles to the previous one. From that time on, the Pendulum will always respond with those two movements for yes and no respectively, or their equivalent meanings, and those assignments of movements will remain in effect for the rest of that persons life as their default. Even if the user then at any time after chooses Dowsing default mode for any particular application, the Pendulum will still give those correct movements, and not various ones that dowsers get. PENDULUM CIRCLING MOVEMENTS I have already mentioned that the other basic movement of the Pendulum is the circular motion (in either direction). My guide told me that this movement should be called <searching> because that is the movement that automatically happens in Advanced Mode when the Pendulum is searching in order to then give an answer of yes or no as a result of what it finds. At the time my guide told me this, and during which time I was using the Pendulum for many tasks that involved searching, I had never heard of Dowsing, nor what dowsers did. I only knew what my guide had told me (and this turned out many years later to be exactly what dowsers did, plus much more that dowsers did not know about!). Throughout this course, you will see many references to <search> mode, as understood by Dowsers. That is NOT the same thing as <searching>. I would rather term the Dowsers standard <search> mode as <ready> mode, but since it has already become well established in the many books and societies of dowsing practice, I keep to the convention in naming it as <search> as well as <ready> (which some Dowsers now themselves call it) when it applies to Lrods. The L-rod diviner simply sets his rod(s) to point forward, so that they will be ready to respond as he moves when the required target has been found, thus he is searching in effect. The Pendulum, however, spins as it performs an actual search, but this spinning motion is the <searching> for the answer to a question and not the <ready> or <search> mode that is used in L-rod or even Pendulum prospecting operations, where the L-rod or Pendulum should be static at that point. The fact that by the Pendulum circling it shows the user what is being done following a question which requires a search due to there being many variables, can be likened, in a

computer analogy, to the hourglass that appears on screen when the computer is performing a save action, but the computer displays the hourglass while it is in fact searching for the place to put the file, whether there is enough room for it and much, much more that the user is not aware of. This is equally true of the Pendulum when it is performing its <searching>. In fact, as my guide has explained to me, the Pendulum works through a kind of computer to access the data it is searching. It is, of course, not like any computer you might imagine, and is in fact a living computer that can do things you could never dream of. This is a fascinating area of exploration, and you can ask the Pendulum to explain more to you about this by asking questions about the computer and how higher beings use it fro many things, but it is not central to this discussion, and what is being explained here is simply what is happening. A further thing that may be noticed from time to time is that during the course of the spinning <searching> motion, the Pendulum may pause very briefly to indicate a yes or a no, and then resume its <searching> spin. This, for the observant user if they note it, is useful to indicate what is happening as the search proceeds. It occurs in a complex search and is part of the normal function of searching when a straightforward search will not provide the answer in other words, where there are many variables that need to be taken into account, since they may interact in a complex way, to arrive at an answer. So, the occasional pause and slight yes or no indication is simply the computer (as you can imagine it) ticking off each search avenue Yes, that is ok or No, that does not apply here and bearing that in mind you will be able to follow the search pattern with practice, and thus gain additional insight. If you frequently get such a pattern in the searching for an answer to give you, then it is worthwhile considering how you might simplify your questions, to arrive at answers that will then be intermediate along your questioning line, but also give you far more information as a result for your investigation. Normally you can expect a clockwise circular motion for <searching>, but occasionally you may encounter an anti-clockwise circling. This has several meanings, but the main one is still <searching>. When producing an anticlockwise motion in searching, the Pendulum is actually searching in a different way than normal, and this may be a search back in time as we know it, through various time-frames, but it can be generally regarded as a search through our space in whatever way. A second meaning of this anticlockwise movement is called <erase> for simplicity. It is actually far more than that, and generally means some kind of reorganisation of data at a higher level. This secondary meaning also indicates that there is a shuffling about (including erase) of data in what you could term (in computer jargon) its buffer concerning the current Question/Answer Session. Sometimes the Pendulum will not keep a step by step record of each question, for its own reasons, and will therefore make a summary of some kind. If the Pendulum goes into an anti-clockwise circling when no obvious search can be assumed

by the user, then it is often likely that the secondary function is being indicated. Whichever function it may be, it is simply an indication to inform the user of what is in process. If you progress to really advanced use of the Pendulum then the circling motion will become more important to you. For the time being however, it is just something that you will gradually get more used to seeing and later working with in Information Dowsing. Scanning to analyse things in great depth, using<scan> mode, is another advanced feature that exhibits a circular motion when that mode is invoked (this has its own particular characteristics, a widening of the circle and then a diminishing of the circle, as the <scan> proceeds). As an advanced function it must be used in the proper manner, so it will not be discussed here, except to say that it has numerous applications. As you can see, from what I have explained here about the circular motion of the Pendulum, it is not a simple function, like yes or no so, it should not be reprogrammed, although many do this, in their lack of understanding, and so therefore lose much of the Pendulums versatility. Some dowsers use the circular motion of the Pendulum as their equivalent of the L-rod <search> mode, and some even use the Pendulum in a lateral swinging motion to start <search> mode off. This is wrong! What is even more wrong, and clearly shows that such dowsers have not even given any thought to the mechanism of the Pendulum, is the fact that they actually physically set the Pendulum swinging, say from side to side, or set it spinning themselves. The Pendulum is not an old crock or vintage car that needs to be set into action as if starting it with a cranking handle! There is a reason why they do this, as my guide explained to me with a sigh. That practice was originally started by some teachers with their dowsing newbie students to give them confidence the psychology of seeing something happening vigorously, particularly if the student was only getting a barely noticeable movement of the Pendulum when first starting to use it, gives a subliminal burst of initial confidence that they are getting somewhere, and the only thing it generates is enthusiasm at the expense of confusion. Thus it was, that this action became a habit, and has now become a common practice. Many dowsing books say that the user should put the Pendulum into <search> mode by setting it into motion (either lateral of circular), and that it will then settle into giving an answer after it has stopped the movement initiated by the Pendulum user. It is more like the Pendulum will provide an answer after it has stopped being dizzy from the enforced shoving of it into motion! This totally unnecessary action does not affect accuracy, but I advocate my pupils to ignore such practices, and to be aware when they see them described in dowsing books. All that is ever needed is to let the Pendulum dangle, and it will either remain like that until it gives a response to a question, or (in the case where there is a good rapport between the user and the Pendulum) a quiescent yes movement, which should be taken as the equivalent of a smile that a friend would have in your presence. If your Penduum smiles at you in this way, then there may be occasions that

demand a quick recognition of a yes when something is found, for example, as you walk forward in a dowsing pass. In this case, you should instruct the Pendulum to be still until it finds what is being sought (or responds to a question). In between questions, in an Information Dowsing session, you can avoid any confusion between any two adjacent answers that may be the same movement by simply saying, Stop please when you have obtained the answer to a question, before proceeding to the next one, and it will oblige. In a further section we shall be looking at how the Pendulum can be used in various investigations, both of a scientific nature and in Information Dowsing, so for now I leave it to the reader to think about the L-rod usage described here and to think how those methods can be adapted to the Pendulum (remembering that the L-rod <search> mode is really only a <ready> mode, and the Pendulums ready mode is just waiting to give a response when required). USING L-RODS Traditionally, when searching for things underground and therefore invisible, the method is generally to walk forward slowly holding two L-rods, one in each hand and each rod pointing ahead in what is termed <search mode>, while at the same time the dowsing operator visualises what is sought (water, oil, coins, etc) in a quiet, contemplative frame of mind. When what is being sought is somewhere in the earth underfoot, at whatever depth it may be, then the rods swivel smartly into <found> position when the dowser is immediately above. this <found> reaction may be inwards or outwards, depending on the person. It has been noted that many dowsers in America get a <found> reaction that makes the rods swing outwards, but generally the reaction is an inward swivel (and in this case the rods cross each other, either at 45 degrees or more, and may even completely swivel inwards to touch the body, the extent depending on the operator as the reaction varies with the individual somewhat). Dowsing is not a haphazard affair, and there are techniques which can be employed to narrow down the direction where the desired target (as it is called) may lie. This is a vast improvement on what metal detectors can do when people are searching for old roman coins and the like (also, metal detectors can only detect metal, and not other valuable artifacts that may be clay pottery or remains, and certainly not the line of an old roman foundation that may lie beneath), plus the treasure hunter needs to divide a field up into narrow strips and carefully walk the entire length of each strip often without even finding anything, since metal detection is a guessing affair, based on only assumptions that there may be metal coins in the vicinity due to extant roman ruins or historical records. The Dowser does not have these problems, since he is able to obtain very accurate data from information

dowsing prior to the field-work, either by question-answer divination, or by Map Dowsing (these will be discussed later, for students to try these techniques for themselves). First though, before we proceed any further, the student should familiarise him/her self with the L-rods, and become confident in holding them. The L-rod, as has been described in the previous section, is made almost always from stiff wire (such as fencing wire, or even more commonly metal coat-hanger wire) and bent into an L-shape, having a short end (about 4 inches) and a long end (about 10 inches). The long end is held parallel with the ground, generally slightly above waist height. The short end is gripped by the hand, but not tightly (especially if not sleeved in tubing) so that the horizontal long end is friction-free and can therefore swivel from left to right. It is more usual to have the short end in a tube that will allow this free movement, and so the tube can be then gripped firmly, otherwise if there is no tubing the wire must be held very loosely to make it friction free; this can produce variable sensitivity and the user tends therefore to worry about whether the grip is slack enough, thus distracting from focussing the intent by visualisation on the task in hand. I recommend that the user fits tubing for ease of use (the metal or plastic tube of a ball-point pen is often employed for this purpose, again see the previous section for details on L-rod construction). It will be found that the best position is obtained by holding the elbows in to the side of the body and forming a right-angle between upper arm and forearm. Each hand then holds an L-rods such that the long end is always parallel with the ground. If the L-rod is facing slightly upwards or downwards then there will be more difficulty in obtaining a reaction, but the correct parallel position is soon found with a minute or less or practice usually; it will soon come to feel natural. Spend a few moments getting used to holding an L-rod in your hand, holding it like a pistol. Let it swivel about as yu hold it to get the feel of how it would move if it was reacting; then find a position where you can hold it still. When you have got the feel of handling one rod, spend a few further moments holding 2 L-rods in the manner prescribed. Now, to get used to the actual <found> reaction from the rods, and to gain confidence, we need a visible target to find at first, before one dashes off looking for invisible things, whatever they may be. In using a visible target we are not interested in the finding (since we know exactly where it is!) but in the reaction obtained when we reach it by walking slowly towards it). So, if you are indoors select something that you can test the L-rods with. The edge of a table, the edge of a carpet, anything that can be passed over and which can be approached at an angle (nearer to a right-angle is best initially, though you can vary this for practice). If you are outside, say in the garden, then the edge of a path, or edge of a lawn is ideal. All that remains is to

visualise (keep in your mind) what it is that you are seeking and slowly (from about 4 ft, or just over 1 metre) walk towards it with the rods in <search> mode (that is, facing forward at waist height, elbows hugging the side of the hips). As you come to the edge of the carpet, path, lawn, whatever, then you will observe the reaction obtained - and therefore the correct <found> reaction for you, which may be for the rods to swivel outwards or to swivel inwards. Whichever way it is will be the way it will react in future for you when any desired target is found. Now, the world is your oyster as they say. You can search for anything not only water, minerals etc but also discover many fascinating things both of a scientific nature plus exploring the esoteric energies of such as ley-lines and standing stones, and much more besides in various fields of interest (pun not intended) such as archaeology and the like. Dowsing is therefore very often an outdoor pursuit, and is healthy since it involves excursions to interesting places, plenty of fresh air and great interest from all who see you doing it. Dont be afraid to be seen. It is a great pastime, and makes many friends, just as walking the dog seems to invariably attract people to talk to you with the dog as the focal point of the conversation, and new horizons will be there for you in many ways as a result. If you are trying the L-rods out tentatively in your back garden and the next door neighbour peers over the fence, then simply call out cheerfully, Great tool, this! and then explain (youll not need prompting!) what its all about in one short sentence: Archaelogists use this in searching for buried treasure-trove better than the metal detector, quicker results! And the neighbour is very likely to invite you in for a coffee, the purpose of which will be to pick your brains - and maybe hope to share in that treasure if you find it, or even make their own dowsing tool to go off and keep the treasure they find for themselves. Who cares you have won increased credibility and respect by your use of this marvellous tool that they see. The only problem you will have is keeping them at bay, because dowsing is essentially a quiet, contemplative activity, so is generally solitary unless companions appreciate your need for quiet relaxed-concentration. this idea of being relaxed and focussed at the same time is called having the right frame of mind (and which also has to be positive) by which means success is assured. So, practice this and visualising at the same time and you will soon become proficient at dowsing with either L-rod or Pendulum). Accuracy is important, so a dowser always needs an accurate reference. Simply walking forward and obtaining a <found> reaction is not in itself precise because where exactly does found mean.. Does it mean between the feet, or where the rods are? By default it means between the feet, as you come to be over the spot visualised (the edge of a buried wall, or

the leading edge of an underground stream, whatever). Some dowsers specify the tip of the right thumb, but I prefer the default of between the feet, since this is easier to mark by just bending down at that spot and sticking a marker (such as a skewer) into the ground, or chalking it, or similar, if it is a solid surface. The idea of using the right thumb comes from another technique which will be discussed later, where the hand is held out and the tip of the thumb used as a reference sight (in that case only 1 L-rod is used). But, as with other methods in Dowsing these things get carried over by people who dont understand them, but they work nevertheless. However it is much better to know exactly what these things mean in order to avoid any possible confusion, and so I explain these carried over methods and their true meaning wherever appropriate in this course. To obtain accuracy then, decide on your reference point always, and programmme the L-rods (or your Pendulum) by simply thinking or saying, Let between my feet be the <found> reference and, from then on, it will be the desired accuracy point exactly. Practice this with a visible target after programming, and as you walk over the target path-edge say, then the rods will swivel to <found> as you come to the point of crossing that boundary. Turn back and with the L-rods set into <search> mode (facing forward) cross it again, and they will swivel to <found> exactly over the boundary edge. after obtaining a <found> reaction the rods must always be reset to <search> mode (<ready>) for the next dowsing pass as it is called. Try, for practice, finding an invisible target water or gas pipes underground, even telephone or mains supply cabling as it comes into your house. See if you can find which way it is running. SINGLE L-ROD USE A single L-rod is often used as a pointer to locate a target, which may be anything desired to be found. There are two approaches to doing this. One, is that the dowser can command the L-rod to point to a named target, inanimate or animate. The other, is to hold the L-rod in one hand and with the free hand outstretched make a sweep through 360 degrees (or at least in a general area where you expect the target to lie) using the thumb as a reference point. When the thum aligns with the target then the rod will swivel to its normal <found> position, which will be the same direction as if 2 L-rods were being employed, and all you have to do then is peg your present position and, noting where the thumb aligns to, walk in that direction. You can even use the L-rod as you walk (a third function) to keep you on line with your target, by instructing it to do just that, which I call <follow> mode. If you should walk off line then the L-rod will veer at an angle and thus indicate the correction you should take to get back onto the invisible line towards your target, just like steering a car by following a pointer. The L-rods (as with the Pendulum) can be programmed for whatever

is required, and it only takes practice and thoughtfulness to accomplish any task in dowsing with accuracy. Many dowser use the word command which is perfectly fine, since a dowser always has respect in using his tools, but I prefer the word instruct when it comes to such as programming the L-rods or Pendulum, especially for the beginner. It is vital to have respect, and to use the word please in instructions to reinforce this in the mind, as well as giving respect to the source that provides the information through those tools. I also encourage the user to say thank you when the L-rod or Pendulum responds, whenever appropriate, or at least think with the right frame of mind at all times, to ensure success. To gain some initial practice with a single L-rod, you can practice in your own home. Do this first with a few visible targets to obtain skill and confidence. Holding the L-rod in the correct manner, stand with a different orientation to where the desired target is located. In other words, select <search> mode with the rod facing forward. Then instruct it to point to the desired target, which it will then do. Try a few more in this manner say a window, or door, or TV, or fireplace, whatever you like. As a variation, ask it to point to the left-hand side of the target, and then to the right-hand side of the target. If you do this, you will see it move from pointing to the left of the window, or whatever, to then point to the right of it. Then, try a target that is not visible. This may be an item in another room or even upstairs. If the item is upstairs then the L-rod will point in the relative direction (in other words, where it would be if a line was projected vertically downwards from its location, and the L-rod will find that point). If you try locating your pet, then be aware that he or she may well be on the move as you instruct the L-rod to point to it. More than a few beginning dowsers have been surprised to see the L-rod point in a particular direction and then slowly shift laterally, effectively tracking the animal as it moves! If your pet is crossing the garden at the time, then by going to the window you can actually see it doing that. If your pet has got out, and you wish to find it but havent got a clue where it might have gone, then get out your L-rod and ask it to point in the direction where the animal is (or, if it is a small child that has gone off somewhere and you are worried in case the child has wandered towards a busy main road then use your intuition combined with the L-rod to quickly get a fix on its whereabouts) and it will be found. this technique does not work in tracking people if they have a right to privacy (the case of a small child is obviously of concern to the responsible parent, so is different but a teenager has road sense and also has a right to privacy, so dont expect the L-rod to tell you where the missing teenager is hanging out, unless you clearly have a need to know, and the L-rod (or Pendulum, if you instruct it to point in a similar manner) will decide that, not you! DOWSING SMALL TARGETS with an L-rod While the technique of using the thumb in directional dowsing with one L-rod

(or Pendulum) is ideal for aligning, a different technique is required for small targets. You can use an L-rod to locate house wiring or water pipes concealed in walls. I have done this many times, with great accuracy. And, on one occasion, when I was having my house rewired and the electrician could not locate the wires with his fancy electronic detector I used dowsing technique to find and trace the wiring for him, to his amazement. His time was, after all, costing me money - but more importantly it was a chance to show him what dowsing could really achieve, since we had been chatting about it in general. His scepticism vanished never more to return when the circuit had been accurately traced by me holding a pencil in my free hand and drawing a line following the location of the concealed wiring beneath the plaster. A finger can also be used to search for things concealed behind a surface to get a rough idea, but a pencil will give pin-point accuracy and is immediately handy to mark the spot or trace a line. Visualise the target (electric wiring, gas piping or water piping as the case may be) as you do this. Where several wires or pipes run parallel there will be a leading and trailing edge as you cross them, so double-check your findings bearing this possibility in mind. PENDULUM DOWSING OF SMALL TARGET With some targets it is more practical to use a Pendulum, especially if you have to stoop down to either mark (if you are using a stick to point with in your free hand) or if you are using a finger or pencil as a pointer. Locating joists under floorboards (or in a ceiling) is such a case. Visualise what a joist looks like and with the intent in your mind of locating that, instruct the Pendulum to give you a yes when your finger or pencil or whatever is on target. In this way look for the edges of the joist and mark the positions found. With joists under floorboards this is easy to do, since joists run at right-angles to the run of the floorboards, and are invariably equally spaced apart. So, as a practice you can check the joist positions in your house. Using the Pendulum in this way, it is important to ensure that the Pendulum is more or less in front of you, otherwise readings can be confusing (see section one for more details about this, and the relative position exercises in that section should be done before trying to work in an unusual position if you cannot hold the Pendulum in front of you, then you should check carefully with Give me a Yes, pleaseGive me a No, please, at whatever position you find you need to hold the Pendulum in to ensure you will recognise its response accurately). Working close to the ground here refers to virtual ground - i.e. floorboards above the absolute ground level). If you are dowsing with a Pendulum (or even L-rods) close to earth itself then be aware that close proximity to soil or terra-firma has an earthingeffect and will cause the tool to malfunction so in such a a case (normally outside, but will apply to solid floors laid on an earth base also, more than floorboards may do) a stick should be used to enable the dowsing operator to be in a normal dowsing position, and it is a good idea if the tip has a spike

to mark the ground at a spot when found, or a chalk or thick felt-tipped pen attached to it for the purpose of marking the spot if dowsing alone, otherwise a companion can do the marking. Where a spot can not easily be marked in the manner just described then once again the Pendulum proves its versatility, especially in confined spaces. Remember though, that if you should let go of the Pendulum at any time, then, when you hold it again, the Pendulum will invariably need a couple of seconds to settle again and log-on to the user before proceeding with the next dowsing operation as you continue to trace whatever it is you seek in this way. This type of operation often requires you to proceed slowly and carefully especially since you need to maintain the right frame of mind and a few seconds recomposure to focus your visualisation again may be required until you become adept. But attention to these details will ensure accuracy - and that is what matters. LONG-DISTANCE DOWSING The L-rod can locate an object at any distance, no matter how far. It can be used to target (dont forget to visualise it!) and point to such as a school, a public house, the local library etc all from whatever your present location may be. It can be instructed to point to a city or town many miles away, however great the distance may be it will find that location relative to your position. Be aware, in this, that some towns have the same name so be sure to specify the state or county (as you would also need to do if seeking a town using an internet search engine). Similarly, by instructing the L-rod accordingly and visualising the target all the while, the leading and trailing edges or banks of a river, relative to your position, can be point fixed just as if you were drawing a line on a map. This latter technique is employed when dowsing for ley-lines. It is easy to visualise something such as water, but invisible energy rivers (which is what aerial ley-lines are) are not so easy to visualise for some. So, a good technique in this case, is to visualise the ley-line as a river of energy, but coloured in order to make a clear visualisation picture in your mind. Generally, the Michael and Mary leylines that run from Lands End to Norfolk and which come together in places are often visualised by dowsers as two distinct rivers of colour. The Michael (yang) ley-line can be visualised as a scintillating river of silver, and the Mary (yin) ley-line as a scintillating river of blue. When attempting to track these ley-lines of earth energies it has been found that these rivers of energy can be up to 22 paces wide, so that should be born in mind, and the exact width can be ascertained by dowsing for leading and trailing edges as you cross the lines in succesive dowsing passes from time to time, and in between such passes you can follow the course of the river by using <pointer> mode with one L-rod and follow the track of the ley-line (see elsewhere in this section for details of how to follow a route).

Much information is available now, thanks to dowsers over the years, regarding ley-lines, the most famous of which is the Michael and Mary leylines to Hopton on the Norfolk coast and many dowsers track those lines from their start at Lands End, proving the consistent accuracy of L-rods and Pendulums. It has to be stressed to the beginner, that dowsers do not check the accuracy of the L-rod or Pendulum as such, but instead are constantly reassured that it is accurate as they follow what others have done. So when they come to discover new things, they can proceed with confidence, and note their careful findings for other dowsers to then explore themselves. In this way, it has been discovered that there are over 300 Sacred Sites and Medieval churches exactly aligned along the undulating and intertwining route of those rivers of energy so the people of ancient times obviously knew the exact location of these ley-lines in order to build precisely on them, and must have used the very same dowsing tools in order to locate those invisible energies. There is much further evidence that dowsers worked with great accuracy in those ancient times, in the way that Sacred sites were actually built, the formations and alignment not only of them but of certain features in Medieval churches with respect to those lines of energy and which have been found to be consistent at every site. These things and more will be explored in later sections for the reader to learn about and investigate for themselves. We have seen, how a single L-rod can do many things in locating objects of any size or at any distance (even an aeroplanes position can be plotted by this means if the flight plan is known and the aircraft ID etc - but the location of the nearest aeroplane, for example, can be located by simply asking the L-rod or Pendulum to point in that direction). And, as I have mentioned earlier, animals can be located even if they are in another town, and the direction given. But, again remember, that it will not locate a person or track them unless there is a specific need to know. This is a rule that the L-rods and Pendulum follow strictly, and will refuse to release that information unless it is your business to know, and especially it must not restrict the Free Will of the person being sought. So, whatever you may think is the source that gives information to cause the L-rods or Pendulum to move, one thing is certain they work for the good of Humanity, not for any selfish, or selfseeking or controlling aim of an individual. Neither, incidentally, can they be used for gambling, or to obtain Lottery winnings or any such aim. The L-rod or Pendulum will however sometimes work to find missing people in the hands of a professional dowser (who naturally observes those rules) or one working purely for the good of Humanity in providing a service and who does this in a very responsible manner; the source would know whether the dowser could be entrusted with the information if the person being sought was not in great danger and therefore had a right to their Free Will not to be found, and so the dowser would either not release the information or only give the general area. A top dowser is likely to have at least a degreee of

telepathic communication with the source and would be told anyway whether the information should be released or not. But, a responsible dowser would ask questions with the L-rod or Pendulum to ascertain this anyway. Although I have said that the source does not permit the use of the L-rod or Pendulum for selfish gain, this does not include the providing of a service, whether it be finding a missing person, water, oil, minerals or whatever. So, if the dowser is skilled then a fee can be charged for that valuable service, and is not considered as selfish monetary gain but rather payment for the persons dowsing skills. In fact, most dowswers dont even think about the money in doing their work. What they receive in payment is due to the excellence of the service they provide and the gratitude of the client who has often been saved much expense as a result. The beginner has to gain not only proficiency but also exhibit proven responsibility in the way they use their dowsing skills before the L-rods or Pendulum will work in very Advanced ways, but the basic dowsing techniques will work for all who are diligent and keen to learn, since the source recognises this and will oblige by being accurate for the dowser who will have the right frame of mind, positive attitude, and above all respect for his dowsing tools and the source that provides the information, whatever that information may be. The bottom line in dowsing is that it is an Art/Science for learning and with that approach the dowser will progress well in developing and using his or her skills in those endeavours. As final examples, in this section, of what the single L-rod can do in direction finding it can be used as a Compass or to show the way home if you are lost in a strange area. So, you will never be lost again. To use it as a compass, simply instruct it to point to the North (magnetic or true) or to the Great Bear Constellation and the North Star, whichever you prefer in the circumstances for navigation. To find your way home, instruct it to do just that, saying Give me the direction of my route home as we go, please and then just follow where it points. It will know the best route for you, whether it be over hill and dale, or along various roads that will lead most quickly and easily to your desired destination (home or a town, or a place of inhabitation where you can obtain food and rest, as you choose). As you walk simply follow the pointing rod, and when you come to where you will need to change direction (maybe along a different road or path) then the pointer will turn to indicate the new direction you should take. If you should, for some reason, miss your turning and be continuing in what is now the wrong direction, then the L-rod will spin back in order to show you that you have passed the turning point. So, turn around, and follow where it points and note more carefully when it changes to point in a different direction and follow that course. If you should repeatedly cross and re-cross where you are supposed to have turned then the L-rod will assume you are belittling its

intelligence, and you may end up not getting a reaction until you think better of your actions and attitude. Only when the L-rod (and this applies to the Pendulum also) is satisfied that you have respect for its help will it comply, so a sincere apology would be a good first step in the right direction. Even better, dont try it on it in the first place if you want to be a dowser its definitely not the right way to go! In Section 4 we shall be following on to look at Information (and Spiritual) Dowsing to see how L-rod and Pendulum users can do this, and what the essentials are. -- End of Section 3 Posts: 106

<NEW DOWSING COURSE> pt.1 ... Section 4 on: August 05, 2003, 21:43:17 S.4 --- INFORMATION DOWSING WITH L-RODS --The last few examples given in the previous section were verging on what is called Information Dowsing and the warning I gave there about need to know and what information will be released to the user by the source applies here also. Information Dowsing proper is defined as obtaining yes or no responses to questions asked of the L-rods (or Pendulum). To use L-rods for Information Dowsing they must first be programmed for this. To do this, you simply put the L-rods into <search> mode (that is, the rods facing forward) and issue the polite command, GIVE me a Yes response, please. Many dowsers have been taught to use the phrase Show me but this is incorrect, and can lead to errors with some people who do not initially have strong intent or focus in their mind. Show me can be applied to any situation once the L-rods (or Pendulum) have been programmed to give the appropriate responses. But first, the source has to assign to the L-rods (or Pendulum) the correct swivel (or, in the case of the Pendulu, swing) that applies to you, the individual and this depends on your genetic make-up and where you live in the world. This has never been researched by dowsers, but I have done my own research, after having been told by my guide that this is in fact the case, and found that it does indeed depend on ethnicity and location. So, because you need to be given the correct response for you, you should use the phrase Give me. Then the L-rods will swivel into the correct position. Once you have been given the respoonse for yes, then proceed to ask politely, Give me a No, please. If the L-rods had swivelled

inwards for yes then they will be repulsed (swivel outwards) for No, or vice-versa. Once thus obtained, these responses will remain yours, assigned to you, for the rest of your life when using the L-rods (and the same applies in that respect to the Pendulum also). It has become to have been documented in several Dowsing Technique books, that the L-rods can sometimes act capriciously for reasons unknown and when this occurs, the L-rods are seen to give the inverse responses yes for no and no for yes, and that this can occur for up to a day or even two days. So, it is recommended that the user checks from time to time, to ensure that the L-rods are responding in the correct manner. I, personally, recommend that the user checks at the start of each dowsing session, with Show me a Yes, please (remember, the response has already been assigned for life, so do not need now to use give but show instead) and similarly ask for No response. No research has been done by dowsers on this changeover behaviour of the tool that can sometimes occur, but my guide informs me that this apparent capriciousness is in fact due to phase reversal in the brains hemispheres, and is a result of varying attitude (the right hemisphere is the intuitive side, and the left is the logical cognitive thinking side). Keeping the right attitude and therefore frame of mind will ensure that this phase-reversal (mistakenly dubbed capriciousness) does not occur. For this reason I say again, and especially for the beginner, until a user is adept in all situations it is advisable to check at the start of each session, or occasionally during a session even. Another useful check that can be done at any time, is to ask a question to which there can only be one answer, for example, Is the sun shining here right now?. If it is, then the resonse will be Yes. If it is night, then the answer will clearly be No. The source does not treat this as checking its intelligence, but rather as an intelligent and common-sense check to ensure that you can recognise the response correctly at any time you feel the need. It can also read your attitude and your train of thought also, so reacts accordingly. TRICK ANSWERS Apart form over concentration (a relaxed, contemplative and focussed frame of mind is essential), as many a noted author on dowsing has remarked, Lrods a and Pendulums have a mind of their own, and revel in the taming of egos. So, occasionally a wrong answer may be given, and the object of this is to get the user to focus better in his line of questioning, a way of redirecting the person onto another track when they are going too far down the wrong route. Once the user realises that this has occurred and rethought, the L-rods (or Pendulum) will give the correct answers. If you suspect you have been given a trick answer, to detect the true from the false simply ask, Is this a trick response? and a truthful answer will be

given to this, since the object is not to make a fool of you but to help you learn something. Note the answer, Yes..that was a trick response or No, it was not! Simple as that. Always remember, that Information Divination is for learning new things, but also very important to the source is the persons inner-development and that latter will always take priority since conditioning and a closed mindset will not lead to acquiring dowsing skill, nor understanding new knowledge, and so must be addressed and conscientiously worked on - and the user should at all times be aware that the L-rods or Pendulum will be seeking to remove such conditioning and anything that will hamper the student dowser in his or her progress towards greater receptivity. Regard the tool as a teacher deserving respect, and with that attitude you will progress well and become adept in receiving accurate information. SPIRITUAL DOWSING This is an aspect of Information Dowsing where the user is seeking answers regarding things that can be considered of a spiritual nature (spiritual here does not have any religious connotation) and applies to such as chakras, auras, higher realms or other dimensions in any way, plus similar nonphysical aspects that lie beyond the frontiers of our ordinary perception. The way that investigation of such things should be approached is with an awareness that, whatever the source, we are in touch with it through our Higher Self or Superconsciousness, and it must be greater than merely our Higher Self by whatever definition, since our Higher Self is in turn connected with the Collective Consciousness. In his book <SPIRITUAL DOWSING>, Sig Lonegrin advocates that, prior to any spiritual dowsing session three quesitons should be asked. If three yes answers are given he proceeds with the dowsing task. If a single No response is obtained then he does not. I would instead say, that if the user obtains a No then they should rethink their approach, and try again rather than just abandoning it. However, I quote Sig Lonegrins three preparation questions here: --- CAN I asks the question Am I READY for the task? --- SHOULD I means Am I right to proceed now? --- MAY I requests permission to proceed. A No response to Should I do this may mean now is not the right time. In general, it will be found that the L-rod or Pendulum will leave no doubt in the persons mind as they attempt to ask questions about a particular topic. Either the tool will not respond, or will give answers that indicate the person is on the wrong track. If the user always has respect and the right frame of mind then the best course of action I advocate is to check when unsure of whether to proceed or not, since a line of questioning may be perfectly

alright to start, but then the questioner can deviate along a track that is not appropriate at that time. A simple question, therefore, at such moments will be sufficient, such as, Am I thinking along the right lines here? when answers dont seem to be making a lot of sense. If you get a No response, then you should rethink and try a different train of thought on that topic. But, it could, however, be that you are indeed thinking along the right lines, but the parameters are beyond your normal perception so if you get a Yes then in that case proceed carefully but with quiet confidence that you will be further guided from time to time as your question session continues. In a similar manner, it may occur that, for whatever reason best known to the source giving the information via the dowsing tool, the present time is not right to reveal the information. If the user wonders if this is the case, then it is simply a matter of asking, Is this the right time to ask about this?. A clear yes or no will be given. In the case of no then you should ask, May I ask about this at another time, please? and again you will be told. Another situation that can arise, is where privacy of an individuals situation is involved or where answers would compromise that persons Free Will in some way, either by your knowledge (were you to receive it) or by your action as a result. This is where a rule comes in, as my guide explained to me, that information is only ever given on a need to know basis whatever it may be. In standard dowsing the need to know is merely the intent to learn and grow in useful knowledge, but in Information Dowsing and Spiritual Divination the need to know is set at different levels according to the users status. Status is defined, my guide informed me, as the level of responsibility earned by various tests that the source sets and its observations as to how the subject deals with those situations. If the subject shows clear ability to handle these with a very responsible attitude then the next higher perspective is opened up along with a new doorway to highersecurity need to know knowledge. And so it continues, as the person advances. I reproduced the Sig Lonegrin questions and his approach to show that dowsers in general, and spiritual dowsers in particular, have great respect for the source of their information which comes through the dowsing tool the use. But, since my guide has explained at great length to me telepathically how I should teach dowsing divination I have given the above guidelines regarding spiritual dowsing here. Incidentally, whilst on the subject of guidelines, the term Dowsing Divination is one term not two words that mean the same thing. Divination is the receiving of divine (i.e. Higher source) information, and Dowsing is the means by which it is done. The word Dowse actually comes from an ancient Norwegian word which means According to Sacred Rules, from which have derived various words from the original, dowsxma (the x being pronounced as ks; the word dogma being

the alternative spelling in English, although the word dogma has now got the connotation of rules imposed which was not its original meaning, and so dowsing is NOT equivalent to dogmatic, but rather it infers respect for guidelines given by a higher source in how to use the dowsing tools correctly, since the various techniques of dowsing were given to the people of Earth many thousands of years ago. Some of the original guidelines were forgotten but thankfully the basics were preserved throughout history. Because of that fact, my guide asked me to teach what she terms the Advanced Mode of Dowsing to differentiate between that and the Traditional (or default) Mode of Dowsing. This is why, then, I stress the importance of the guidelines that have been given to me telepathically for me to pass on and which apply particularly to Information and Spiritual Dowsing, but also add back what has been lost or mistakenly assumed in Traditional Dowsing Techniques. Having said that, Dowsing Principles are basically sound in most respects and have proved great accuracy in use over the many centuries - in fact, as detailed in Section 1 of this present course, Dowsing can be dated back to over 8,000 years ago and such as the Pyramids and Sacred Sites as well as Medieval Churches were built on Dowsing Principles by stonemasons who knew the ancient art and science of Dowsing. Therefore it is time for this ancient knowledge to be given to all, so that everyone can have a clear understanding of all aspects of Dowsing, particularly in the sphere of Information and Spiritual Dowsing that can be done by any person for their inner-development and for obtaining Truth at this time in our evolution. ASKING THE RIGHT QUESTIONS To obtain Truth you have to ask the right questions in fact, the question must be clear in order for the answer to make sense. One of the most common pitfalls is asking two questions in one. In Information Dowsing, for example: Is X big and black?. Apart from being two questions concerning (1) whether X is big and (2) whether X is black (and the answer to each may be different), there is also the question of what is considered big since this is a very relative term which could describe an elephant, a long-distance 8wheeler lorry, an office complex, a planet, a star a galaxy. How big is big? If size is important in the question then relate it to actual measurement terms. Is it more than 5 metres long? is a precise question, rather than Is it very long since 50 metres could be very long and the difference is enormous, depending on what you consider long. Also, be aware of what Can I and Should I mean. There is a tendency to use these words interchangeably in speech but with fact seeking, especially of physical information you need to be precise. Can I go to town now? means am I capabable (am I able to walk?, do I have the transport?, will I be able to get transport? etc), whereas Should I go to town? is asking would it be advisable to go (will there be any shops open when I get there? Is there anything I need from town? Is a person Im planning to meet there likely to

be delayed? Is now the best time ?(since it is not specified), or would another time be better?) there are many variables, so it is better to break that question up into parts, dealing with what is important to you to find out. People use Information Dowsing to plan their holidays (just as one might consult travel brochures, but here get more information that they would contain regarding local places, the conditions and possible problems there, etc). Some use it in their business to help plan schedules in many respects it is a way of thinking out things, rather like having a knowledgeable friend there who can advise on situations, and you can get an idea from the way they *nod* or shake their head (yes or no indication) as you talk through it. A relaxed style of questioning is always best for good results. In Spiritual Dowsing the best approach is always the conversational rather than fact seeking approach, so dont be in a hurry but rather talk about it with the Dowsing tool (single L-rod or Pendulum), whatever you are interested in. The more relaxed you are, then the more in-depth your conversation is going to be, and also the better your frame of mind (that meditative and reflective state essential for good dowsing). Those times in a persons life when they get into really deep conversation with someone, and the hours slip by unnoticed is the best way to think of your dowsing conversations, because if you can approach them in that way then you will derive the most benefit by that depth of relaxed-cncentration. Being in a meditative and reflective state does not mean falling asleep, and just as it is when talking to a close friend about deep issues you can be excited at the same time, and even emotional (a good state for telepathic reception) and so you actually become more alert to dig and dive into different lines of questioning, like a rabbit down every hole, to see where there is the possibility of more information. Often, an answer to a particular question prompts remembrance of some previous line of questioning and a surprise answer that cropped up at that earlier time and which then didnt seem to make sense but suddenly provides an avenue for re-investigation, so go back to that earlier thread of discussion and see how far it now leads in the light of new information. Talking about things outside of normal perception is a picture painting exercise, getting a backdrop, a canvass from which to work and delve into other questioning lines. It is not a question of believing what answers are given, but of investigating what sense can be made of them and that will often involve the shedding of conditioning in order to grasp some things, especially if it has been ingrained in you that those things could not possibly be true, or go against some well-established teaching. It is often a matter of perception, and Spiritual Dowsing increases the level of perception with practice, leading to higher perspectives. Should you trust the L-rod or Pendulum, in the answers given when doing Spiritual Dowsing? The answer to that is would you trust a friend, more than a stranger? And that means that you should try to gain a good rapport in

the same way that you would want to get to know a person, to be a friend, and then a close friend. Your friend talks to you, and depending on how much you have talked to them you can accept what they are saying as part of a larger picture. So you listen and ask questions, and build up in your mind what they are trying to explain to you. Be aware, that in the early stages of Spiritual Divination, that the accent will be on breaking pre-conditioning, so you are going to be surprised at some of the answers at least, and you have much to think about as a result. Once your inner-development has broken the barriers then new frontiers of exploration know no bounds. For each, it is going to be different so, no cut and dried formula exists in how to approach divination whether by tool or direct with a guide by telepathic communication. So, my advice is always to start off with the ordinary and familiar, and just be natural, in the same way as when you meet a new friend it is more appropriate to just sit and chat over a cup of tea or coffee (okay, glass of wine if youre French!) than it is to dive straight into deep issues. Most of all, ask about things that interest you whatever they may be. Some have said to me, that they dont want to waste the time of the source or their guide or their Higher Self on trivialities. People are what they are, and thats why they are here, to be how they are at any particular time which includes a sense of humour. Life is not meant to be deadly serious it is an experience, to be lived. So, ask about the things in your ordinary life, the things you would ask a close friend about and think in terms of that source as being a very Wise Friend then you will be starting to build a good rapport, because that source knows everything about you from the moment you pick up the tool. So, you may as well talk about what it all, for starters, and let it out because very often there are things buried that need to be addressed. Finally, on the topic of questions if you have difficulty in thinking of questions to ask, then an easy way is to make statements and observe the reaction of the L-rod or Pendulum. Reading a book, while holding the Pendulum is an ideal way of getting used to spiritual divination, and, as you read each sentence or part of it, you can watch the Pendulum out of the corner of your eye, and it will be seen to agree or disagree by the yes or no response to what you are reading to it. Just be casual, and start with, It says here and then just read that section. Then, you can ask questions about what youve read. That IS by far, the easiest way of starting out with Spiritual Dowsing, and you can apply the same idea in listening to a documentary or anything of a supposedly factual nature on TV or radio (even easier is recording it and then playing it back as you hold the Pendulum, because you can then pause it or even go back to parts to ask more questions). In this way your questioning skills will soon develop. A FOOTNOTE:

On a personal note here, my own experience with dowsing came with the Pendulum, and by asking literally thousands of questions within the first 3 days of having started with the Pendulum it brought me the gift of telepathy and within that first week I had full instant telepathic communication with Higher Beings on a constant basis every minute of every waking day from that time on. I did not know anything about the Pendulum prior to picking it up for the first time, and there was no-one around to teach me either. In fact, I had never heard of the Pendulum before that time, and it wasnt until many years after that that I even knew what the word dowsing meant; I only knew I could do it, and that it was called divination from the explanations my guide gave me. So, I was guided, right from the start, at first by intuition and after the first 3 days by a voice telepathically in my head, that explained many wonderful things to me about other realms and how things really were, and of course the Advanced Mode of using the Pendulum and all the things that were known to those I was later to come to know were called dowsers. In fact, it was only two years ago that I first saw a dowsing book (six years after I had already learned it in detail, plus the things that dowsers had forgotten!), and as I read that book I was filled with awe that it had all been revealed to me long before, and without the need for me to ever read it in the first place. I do not ask the reader or anyone to believe me, but simply say, Ask the Pendulum, or the L-rod - and it will tell you the Truth of what I say. Those Dowsing tools will tell you many wonderful things that are in books which you have never read (as well as the truth that is not written in those books), but more than that they will tell you what has been lost to Man during the course of our history, and what has never yet been written in any book on Earth. While Traditional Dowsing techniques will not of themselves lead to telepathic abilities being reawakened in people (everyone has that ability though dormant and undeveloped, a psychic muscle unused), following this on to the diligent and frequent practice of Information and spiritual dowsing with the right frame of mind will lead to and greatly assist the speedy development of full telepathic communication with a guide. But, be aware that ego has no place in any of this development, yet a quiet confidence will be the keynote since the bringing of telepathy confers with it a responsibility to convey in a clear voice to others what is relayed to you - or, to be more precise, those parts that are permitted for you to pass on at any particular time of what is revealed to you. That is how it has been with me, and it was only recently, after many years of knowing so many things, that I was permitted to pass on in public for all to know those things my guide wishes to be known. Those who I have taught full telepathy by personal tuition in conjunction with their guides, and those who I have assisted in reaching instant telepathic ability have been those who were deemed ready for it by their guides, and this is the way it always is. Nothing is ever given to do that a person cannot easily accomplish, and the guides know the time. So, have that quiet confidence in your learning and know that you are guided, however unseen it may at the moment may be, and that time will surely come if you are diligent just take

it as it comes. There is no need to desperately try, because you will be presented with the opportunities at the right time. Remember, your innerdevelopment is of prime importance to the Higher Realms, so you will be well prepared for the many gifts that are there to be given. There are an ever growing number now on the Astral Pulse who have found a way forward by means of the Pendulum, and now hopefully even more will emerge to use the Pendulum and also the L-rods as a result of this instruction course in dowsing which is aimed to set a firm foundation of confidence and ultimately, as they progress, add to those members who are already in telepathic communication with their Higher Self.. and then monitor guides, progressing to teacher-guides and finally a permanent guide who will be assigned to them for the purpose of them helping others. Always though, inner-development is the priority and the various types of guides are assigned for that purpose. I know this from personal experience, and from working closely and directly with the guides of those I give telepathic tuition to, and the pace of the tuition proceeds according to what their guides feel is right for them at that time. Recently I had the pleasure of working with a teacher-supervisor guide who was working with one of the members of the Astral Pulse in conjuction with their regular guide in order to for that supervisor to choose the best teacher guide for that persons future studies and inner-growth. So the guides take the development of each person very seriously and on an individual basis. There are many paths possible, but one of the main ones I teach is through the Pendulum to telepathy, and by this Service to Others for those that then become guided to do what the guides then train them to do. In that way, this part of the job assigned for me to do will have been fulfilled, and I seek no more than the joy of knowing I have helped others along the path I have trod. Each individual has a purpose to fulfil and this is but one stage along the path towards a giant leap for Mankind that is coming soon, so it is time to prepare hence the reason for this dowsing course I have prepared here so that people will be assisted to be ready for when the time comes, and be able to help others also in the meantime. -- end of Section 4 This is the end of Part 1. In sections to follow in Part 2 of this course, much more detailed explanations of Ley-Lines, Earth Energies, Grid Lines, and many other aspects of practical dowsing will be presented, plus scientific findings about dowsing along with experiments that the reader can try for themselves in most of the applications very easily. Map Dowsing will also be covered to enable much investigation without even leaving your living room. In the meantime, keep practicing, and try as many of the things discussed so far as you can do, before we dive even deeper into the Art and Science of Dowsing in Part 2, coming soon.
