# TO THE READER

The news media are full of reports of trouble every day. There are so many things to worry about that people get bored and grow numb by them. Even a natural disaster taking place in the immediate vicinity can only hold the interest of the public momentarily, and even the state authorities lose their interest as soon as the excitement subsides. The Chernobyl disaster and the Basel chemical spill are events already forgotten. The news threshold can no longer be passed with reports on desertification and the destruction of rain forests, the death of forests in different parts of the world, the poisoning of lakes and seas, the powerlessness of medical science against cancer and viruses or the reports on the growing aggressiveness among people leading to wars and violence. The list is endless. So do we simply allow things to take their own course? One barely dares to imagine the end result of this development. And yet, there is hope.

In different parts of the world there are both small and large groups of people who work to preserve life. And luckily, their numbers are continuously growing.

I have worked with plants for over thirty years in my own market garden. During my entire life, I have always tried to learn new things. I cannot avoid seeing how wrong the great developments in technology and economy are, as far as nature is concerned.

As a pleasant surprise I have, however, been able to notice that since the middle of June 1988, the etheric body of trees has started to strengthen. The strengthening has continued throughout the fall and winter. Last time the matter was investigated was in February 1989, and the direction was still the same. Since there have been no restrictions on noxious emissions so far, the explanation for the development lies on the spiritual side. More and more people are anxious about nature's condition. The call for help has been heard. Perhaps people have been given more time to come to their senses.

About ten years ago, I received the ability to observe reality also by metaphysical means. It makes me obliged to share my observations with others. It has also been the reason for writing this book. My only aim is that people would change the way they treat nature. If I am able to make even a small contribution to this direction, thanks are due to my master who has led me to this path.

I want to thank BA Lauri Parkki for his crucial help in the final revision.

# THERE ARE MANY PATHS TO THE TRUTH

Existing entities have many forms and many meanings. What are they then? I do not even attempt to answer this question. Esko Jalkanen is looking for answers and explanations through channels that are, for the most part, foreign to the rational science of our time. He approaches problems and their solutions through the irrational. This is typical for our time. The academician George Henrik von Wright pays attention to this orientation in his work "Vetenskapen och förnuftet", which has generated a lot of discussion. The rational science has solved a large number of problems. At the same time it has created an even greater number of problems in people's immediate environment. The human being has become hesitating, seeking, misguided. Now, people look for support in the irrational as well as the rational.

This leads to the conclusion that science has failed, at least in its effort to provide a foundation for our view of life. Perhaps science never even attempted it. The field of science is comprised of millions of small puzzles that well-educated experts compile in isolation of one another. The pieces generally fit well together and form, in a surprising way, parts of a whole. One problem after another is being solved and scientific innovation produces new technologies at breath-taking speed. This is called development.

But who is responsible for the larger picture? Is someone in control of the great body of puzzles and its consequences? The answer is short and unambiguous: nobody. We turn to the philosophers. Von Wright has ventured to the front line – perhaps because of his great authority and forced by his intellectual honesty. He has already received his criticism, which may be just as well that he has.

Esko Jalkanen has his own starting point from which he proceeds boldly. His approach is totally different from ones that I, as a physicist, am used to. I would like to make dozens of critical questions to him, but this is not the place for them. I know that I will always have a chance to make him accountable for his words and to get answers. I do not know if we ever find mutual understanding but that is not all that important. What is most important is a discussion, thinking about the essence of reality.

The key purpose of this work is, in my opinion, to generate discussion. It is splendid that someone dares to put forward one's views and to stand behind them. Rational science is the surest way to the truth, but it is unsure whether it covers the whole truth. Other paths are available as well, and those treading on them have their own place in the endless strive of human beings towards the truth. We ought to keep the gates open to every direction.

# On the essence of human beings and the world

Our inherent curiosity has led us to study the world and ourselves and to seek an answer to the question why things are the way they are. The large framework for all that exists, the Earth, the solar system, and the stars are a fascinating mystery that provides seemingly endless work to solve it.

Although all the means of present-day science and technology have been harnessed for our use, the need for research seems be constantly growing. Sometimes the object of study disappears from our field of observation like the universe fleeing with the speed of light at the edges of space or like the elementary particles that are even smaller than quarks. A human being making observations can only use three dimensions and five senses with which to gather information and present it.

Towards the end of their lives, some of the great thinkers of humankind such as Newton, Kant, Swedenborg, Freud, Jung, Pauli, and Einstein suggested matters that the official science could not approve. It was said that the old gentlemen had lost their head. So, what did they suggest? To put it briefly, they tried to overcome the limitations of the three-dimensional world and the five senses with more or less success. The few scientists with the qualifications to understand the thinking of these gentlemen have kept silent in order to protect their own reputation. And so, science has limited itself.

Throughout the known history, there have been people with extrasensory gifts, seers who have had a much deeper understanding of life and its meaning than that of ordinary people.

Especially among the old Asian cultures there have been spiritual leaders who have renewed and purified old philosophies and their moral doctrines. They have had a clean knowledge about the higher planes of existence and their structure. The descriptions concerning these matters are surprisingly similar in spite of where and when they were given.

Throughout the times, there have been people who are interested in ultimate questions of philosophies and religions. Often they have had an ability to make extrasensory observations. When dealing with the deeper forces and thoughts in nature and in the divinity sustaining nature, they seek divine wisdom in everything that exists. This way of thinking and seeking is also called theosophy. The term is derived from the Greek words theós, referring to deity, and sophía, meaning wisdom. The doctrine of divine wisdom is not a religion but rather a philosophy. For those capable of extrasensory observations, everything observed is real, but it represents a natural order which is quite different from the one taught to us by science.

The roots of this philosophy may be in Asia, especially in Tibet. Its oldest literal sources are Sanskrit manuscripts that are thousands of years old. But this channel of knowledge reaches yet further into the past, all the way to the spiritual inheritance of the ancient continent Atlantis and to its remnants among the peoples of the old and new continent. Knowledge is, therefore, very scattered, but from these bits we can find a clear description of the different planes and worlds of existence. To this description I base my own presentation. For the different planes of existence, I use the most frequently used: the physical, etheric, astral, mental, and the Buddhic or love plane.

# The essence of a human being

The essence of a human being consists of five bodies, each one above the other. Each body corresponds to one of the many planes of existence. When one moves upwards from a lower plane, matter becomes thinner. In the same way, man's different bodies are also made of matter that becomes thinner and thinner. A human being is, therefore, in reality a being belonging to many worlds simultaneously.

The physical body, which is made of coarser matter, serves us during our earthly walk. It is our base in this world where matter exists in solid, liquid, or gaseous form.

The most finely divided matter of the physical plane forms the etheric plane. Corresponding to this plane in human beings, there is the etheric body which is shaped like the physical body and penetrates it. Its function is to maintain the physical body and carry information between the physical body and our higher planes of being.

The next plane, higher and of thinner matter, is the astral plane or the plane of feeling and it corresponds to the astral body in a human being. Our entire world of emotions functions in this plane where good and bad thoughts manifest themselves as entities built up from astral matter that is always in motion.

The death of a human being means the casting-out of the physical and etheric parts of being. After that, man continues his life in his astral body as an entity of the astral plane for an average of some decades. At the lower boundary of the astral plane, there is a zone through which everybody must pass in order to clean oneself from selfishness and passions. A human being free from these vices may pass that zone in an unconscious state without knowing anything about it. For the rest, the journey could be painful. In different religions one speaks about purgatory, hell, kamaloka, or other bad places and people are fear that they might end up there unless they fulfill certain conditions in their lives.

After his astral travelling, man's fourth part of being, the mental or intellectual body continues to live in a sub-region of the mental plane which may be called heaven. Life there lasts for centuries and consists of good experiences only. Finally, a person who has completed the journey ceases to exist and only the causal body is left behind. It is this part that is transferred from one life to the other and in which all positivity from previous lives crystallizes. On a suitable occasion, this causal body develops further within a new human being. This is repeated again and again. The chain of incarnations breaks up only when a person reaches a high-enough level of spiritual development. Approximately half of mankind believes in this theory or some version of it.

Belonging to the higher levels of existence, there is still the Buddhic plane or the world of love which, in many ways, is connected to the physical creation and which, among other things, influences the well-being of living creatures. Many human activities have, regrettably, started to hamper these connections.

So far, I have described the levels of existence mainly from the human point of view. They may be examined from many other points of view, as well. All existing things seem to have their counterpart on different levels, and there is constant exchange of matter, energy and information between the planes.

#  Multi-dimensional worlds

It was mentioned above that matter changes to a finer particle size, becomes thinner, when one moves higher up through the planes of existence. It also seems to be a part of the general build-up of nature that when matter becomes thinner, the number of dimensions increases. In the physical world, three dimensions are known. The higher the plane, the more dimensions there are.

The fourth dimension forms gradually when one moves from the physical to the etheric and astral planes. Strangely enough, somewhere along the way there is a point where three and a half dimensions exist. That fourth dimension seems to be time. When one moves into the reality of four dimensions, all of the natural laws we know and where time is a factor will change. A person who is able to receive information from the etheric plane may also use the dimension of time to study the past of phenomena in the physical plane.

In the astral plane, the fourth dimension is complete. All the physical objects have their counterpart in the astral plane and these counterparts are made of the fine-sized, vibrating matter of this plane. In the four-dimensional world, for example the perspective or the physical size of an object does not restrict seeing. One can see for instance a cell or an atom as a plate-sized object.

The mental plane is divided into two parts, the lower part having five dimensions and the higher one has six. In the Buddhic plane there are seven dimensions which may be the highest number of dimensions attainable in existence.

Reason can't any longer explain the worlds of so many dimensions. The control of each new dimension increases information remarkably. Perhaps this is one way to define additional dimensions.

Although we cannot understand the world of many dimensions, we can receive some kind of information about them. Perhaps it is even meant that we understand something about the existence of the higher planes in order to harmonize our own activities with nature in the physical plane.

# The nature of matter and its dimensions

The physicist Niels Bohr presented his theory about the structure of an atom in 1913. The word atom is Greek and means the smallest possible, indivisible particle of matter. Half a century after Bohr's theory, the quarks were discovered which are parts of the parts of an atom. There are six kinds of them and, according to present understanding, all matter is composed of them. The world of even smaller particles is still completely beyond our observations.

If you study the essence of matter by extrasensory means, you will notice that matter is not, after all, as solid as we have believed. It can be compared to a bonfire from which flames and smoke continuously rise up and disappear. However, matter moves back and forth between different planes. It is a process of continuous materialization and dematerialization. The finer the matter is, the more dimensions the world in question has. The behaviour of matter in the etheric and higher planes cannot be studied by physical means. Even some of the elements we know are imperceptible to us.

The true origin of matter seems to be somewhere in the higher planes from which it, as if under pressure, is condensed into bigger particles and descends towards the physical world. Between the planes there is a balance, as if extra material would flow back through some regulatory mechanism. Some regulating force maintains the material world that we observe.

The English astronomer and mathematician Fredrik Hoyle presented a theory in the 1950's according to which the density of the universe remains unchanged in spite of its continuous expansion. This is caused, according to Hoyle, by the materialization of one atom of hydrogen in one cubic mile of space, taking place once a year. This theory is not generally accepted. Instead, the Big Bang Theory is considered to be more probable, according to which the universe receives the energy needed for expansion from an explosion that took place about 16 billion years ago. To me, Hoyle's explanation is more natural and simpler. If the universe has to expand, all that is needed is one atom of hydrogen per year. A solution that is surprisingly well thought out!

The splitting of matter into smaller and smaller parts requires a lot of energy, as has been observed in the field of nuclear research. It is a very laborious a task in the physical world. Although the discovery of quarks has simplified the theory of the nature of matter, it has not, as of yet, solved the entire problem.

Since even the quarks are divided into smaller particles, only one particle remains which seems to be the basic part of all matter. The home of this particle is in the upper part of the mental or intellectual plane, the world of six dimensions. From this plane and from the planes above it, all that exists is governed. The material world is maintained by some thought or will. When it ceases to exist, matter will completely disintegrate in the physical sense.

What if the Big Bang Theory does not hold true? Some recent observations can undermine this theory. The whole model of the Big Bang is based on the presumption that the speed of light is constant and unchanging forever. My own observations suggest that also light "gets tired". Its movement slows down and ceases completely at about 6,300 years from the starting point. This claim is, of course, contrary to all so-called scientific conceptions.

If the speed of light really decreases in time, the universe we perceive would be much smaller than previously thought. What did Einstein actually mean when he talked about light returning to its starting point?

We can see long periods of development in the thinning of matter. At the moment, we are living in a steady period when matter is in its largest particle size, in its densest state. This period has lasted for about ten thousand years and it continues far into the future. Before this period, matter was thinner, and when we move back in history, it thins down all the way until ten billion years ago when the Earth did not exist in the physical sense. When the period of solid matter once ends, the period of thinning begins and will continue towards a seeming emptiness. The possibilities of the human race for spiritual development seem to coincide with the period of solid matter. Bound to matter, we must try to think. There seems to be plenty of things to ponder.

# Man as part of world history

Why are we here on the Earth, and where did we come from? These two questions are always current. Answers have been given in different religions and philosophies. Science has also tried to say its word, but perhaps not yet its last one.

One source of knowledge that only few people have had the opportunity to get acquainted with is the Memory of Nature, or the Akashic records. It is knowledge stored at the mental plane, in the heaven - knowledge in which all the events of the past are explained to the smallest detail. Those who deny the existence of higher planes do not, of course, acknowledge such sources of information. It is, however, interesting to hear about the experiences of those who have had a chance to get to know the Memory of Nature. Examples of those people include Rudolph Steiner, a German, and Pekka Ervast, a Finn. About a half a century before them, there was Helena Blavatsky, a Russian-born, who wrote about her experiences in a large work "The Secret Doctrine".

Blavatsky's book is very difficult to understand and there are many problems in its interpretation. There she explains how she received her knowledge during a long study trip that took her as far as Tibet. As her guide she had two people who had become free from the cycle of incarnation. With them, the author learned how to use the Memory of Nature.

According to Blavatsky, the human race has gone through several stages comparable to reincarnation. The Earth also has its own reincarnation cycle. Man's developmental stages are manifested in the appearance and disappearance of what can be called root races. Every root race is, in some respect like in relation to its senses, more developed than its predecessor. It is also interesting that the fifth root race, which we represent, lives mostly in the physical plane. The first root races lived fully in the etheric plane and they had a firm contact with the guides in the astral plane. The sixth and seventh root race coming after us are again of thinner matter and they exist, therefore, mainly in higher than physical planes.

The history of the root races is firmly connected to the history of the Earth. According to Blavatsky, life on Earth began with the first human root race. The second root race evolved on the Hyperborealic continent. Only at about halfway through the evolution of the third root race, humans began to materialize. It took place on the Lemurian continent, in the region of the present Pacific Ocean about 18 million years ago. These human beings are described as being very different from us. They were jellylike, even nine metres tall, one-eyed creatures. During this period, man transformed from unisexual to bisexual. Later on, the Lemurian human race declined and the whole continent disappeared leaving behind only small islands in the Pacific Ocean.

The fourth root race developed on the Atlantis continent, in the region of the present Atlantic Ocean. The era was favorable for human evolution, especially due to good rulers. Who may these rulers have been? Blavatsky lets us understand that they were creatures coming from space as well as the offspring of them and humans.

The culture of Atlantis declined, however, because of struggle for power and a war between good and evil forces lasting for millions of years. The defenders of Good gradually moved away from Atlantis via Africa to the east. The main parts of Atlantis sank into the sea about eight hundred thousand years ago. Even the last group of islands sank for about eleven thousand years ago. The fifth root race, which we represent, evolved from the remains of the fourth root race.

The humans of the fifth root race have both an advantage and a disadvantage of living mainly in the physical plane. Although we do not know what is happening in the higher planes, we can, in our thoughts, acknowledge their existence. On the other hand, our spiritual characteristics develop so that out intellectual capacity increases, but love is forgotten. This is evident in human activity: more and more purposefully we are destroying the nature around us. The intellect may, therefore, be the characteristic that will lead the fifth root race into destruction.

Representatives of the sixth root race already exist among us. They are very talented but often people who have difficulties to adapt. They are born into a world that is too hard. A strong internal pressure can lead them into self-destruction. They have developed the sixth sense, typical for the sixth root race - the sympathetic sense that also generates human love. This root race will also be destroyed in time due to its own human limitations.

The new characteristic of the seventh root race is a telepathic sense. Preference is then given to man's spiritual development. This era will bring one stage in the Earth's incarnation cycle to its end. Some of the last representatives of the seventh root race will transform into spiritual beings that could be called angels. The thought of the highest entity who maintains the Earth will cease, physical matter and activity disappears and everything will go into a resting stage in order to wake up again after countless years. In the universe, everything evolves towards divinity. Human beings have, however, given the possibility to refuse to participate in this evolution. These "fallen-behind people" have to participate again and again in the journey of mankind until they are ready to continue in the path of development. In different stages of their evolution, called asuras, ahrimans, and lucifers, they will still participate in many ways in the destiny of mankind.

# Elements as the sustainers of life

As I understand it, the elements can be divided into three categories depending on the way they participate in sustaining life. The first group, which is important for life, consists of 55 elements. Of these 55 elements, sixteen function only in the physical plane, twenty-one elements function both in the physical and etheric planes, and the effect of the remaining eighteen extends also to the astral plane. According to textbooks of physiology, plants survive with sixteen elements! These sixteen elements are almost the same as my list of the elements functioning in the physical plane.

The idea that some elements influence life also in higher planes – as much smaller particles, of course, and perhaps with a non-existent requirement of energy – is evidence of the surprising appropriateness in nature. Life is sustained by events in several planes if only they are allowed to.

The second group consists of elements that in no way contribute to the sustaining of life. There are 37 of them altogether. They also function in three planes and every one of them has its purpose in nature's great order – also uranium which is the last element in the list.

Finally, there are elements that cannot be observed in the physical plane. Two of them exist in the etheric plane, and four such elements are in the astral plane, elements that seem to have a bearing on the maintenance of life. The masses of known elements in the etheric and astral plane together with the masses of unknown substances functioning there comprise over 95% of the total mass of everything in existence.

According to my observations, the astral plane has started to spread out in the last few years both into the direction of the physical plane or bigger particle size and of the mental and Buddhic plane. The higher planes, on the other hand, slide towards the world of smaller particles. I cannot explain this phenomenon but I suspect that it is caused by man's activity.

#  Can matter disappear?

When Albert Einstein published his theory of relativity in 1905, the physicists and mathematicians of the world got completely new food for thought. This theory of his gave us the equation E = mc2, which describes the relation between energy and mass, something that Einstein himself also regarded as the most significant part of his theory.

According to what is known as Einstein's special theory of relativity, when the speed of an object increases, a clock travelling with it will go more slowly. Time goes more slowly or lengthens. Something also happens to the object itself: it starts to flatten in the direction of movement and its mass begins to increase infinitely. These phenomena become especially interesting closer to the speed of light, which according to Einstein is constant.

According to the laws of physics, the velocity is the distance travelled in one unit of time. When time ends, also velocity ceases to exist. In Einstein's energy clause, velocity is represented by the square of the speed of light, c2. The speed of light is about 300,000 kilometres per second. When that second slows down and finally stops, time has ceased to exist. Therefore, the right side of the equation is zero and so is the left side - energy ceases to exist.

But according to the theory of relativity, mass should increase infinitely when one approaches the speed of light. When we study this paradox with extrasensory means, the following explanation is received: when the speed of a particle is 99 percent of the speed of light, five percent of the mass remains. When the speed is 99.9 percent of the speed of light, mass is disappearing; only one-thousandth of it is left. Mass has transferred into the etheric plane where time or energy, as we understand it, does not exist. What does it then mean that an object will flatten in the direction of its movement? I think that it simply describes the movement of an object into the etheric plane; matter decreases and the object flattens. When the object has flattened infinitely or has disappeared, the speed of light has been reached and the object has moved into the other world.

These conclusions can be, from the point of view of many physicists, pure nonsense. Physics does not acknowledge higher worlds. However, physicists do admit that the basic nature of matter is not yet fully understood. There are disputes for instance about whether or not elementary particles called gravitons that are connected with the gravitational force exist. It is not, however, admitted that making observations is like trying to catch fish with a large-mesh fishing net. The particles in the etheric plane are already beyond our observations and so are the gravitational particles. But, they will certainly be discovered one day, somewhere close to earth ray particles.

#  Gravitational force – connection to the etheric plane

The gravitational force is such a mundane part of our lives that we hardly ever think about it. However, with gravitation, we are dealing with the same mysterious force that holds the heavenly bodies in their orbits. How can a force affect the bodies in heaven that are hundreds of thousands of light-years away from each other?

Gravitation is controlled from the etheric plane, in a world in which the laws of physics as we know them are not valid. Physical time does not exist, but there is a new dimension that is called time. It seems that at some point, matter that is in the process of thinning out, reaches the particle size of graviton, therefore changing into gravitons. The contacts created by gravitation originate, therefore, in worlds that are almost impossible for us to observe. When gravitons again materialize, we approach events that can also be explained by the law formulated by Newton. The continuously alternating cycle of the thinning and materialization of matter seems, then, to be also the precondition for gravitation to function.

#  The invisible reality

Although the small parts of matter are in constant motion, that movement as such is not life. The precondition of life is consciousness. Consciousness, on the other hand, does not exist without the etheric part of being, which any object, even a single atom, could have.

In the metabolism of nature, everything happens with the help of living atoms and molecules, which, therefore, possess the etheric part of being. If nature resorts to dead matter, it must first be transformed into living matter in order to be used, for instance, as building material for plants.

Industrial processes produce more and more dead matter. For example strong fertilizers are such products. Man burdens nature by offering it dead matter. Impurities enter the soil, air and water continuously. The effects of nuclear power even reach the etheric plane. The trend is alarming.

All matter in nature is alive because animals, plants, bacteria, and microbes keep it in constant circulation. All activity requires energy. Animals and humans get it from food and plants from the sugar produced by photosynthesis. What about an engine that gets its energy from gasoline – is that also life? Nature is not a mechanical machine that is simply used by photosynthesis. More is required in life. There is an invisible side to it that makes a creature a rationally acting individual. Energy is required to sustain also this higher form of life. This force may be called bioenergy.

#  The cell is the centre of metabolism

In the physical sense, a cell is a small unit. The biggest single cells are constructions the size of bird eggs. The cells of a plant or an animal are not visible to the naked eye. Spiritually however, a cell is a giant. A cell has, in addition to the physical part, also etheric and astral parts of being. Thus, it also functions in multi-dimensional worlds.

The metabolism of a cell takes place in all three planes so that about sixty elements participate in it. There also seem to exist cells that function completely with only thirty-five elements, of which eleven function in the physical, fourteen in the etheric and ten in the astral plane.

Elements move out of and into a cell either directly through the cell membrane or by thinning out into a higher plane and again, after dematerialization, back to a lower level. Elements move as required for instance from the physical to the astral plane and when they return they may stay in the etheric plane. Matter disappears and comes back in the same way as electrons, excited with a laser beam, move to higher orbits.

If, at a given moment, a required element is not present in the physical plane, it begins to materialize from elementary particles in higher planes. This process can take place only in natural conditions. In a healthy individual, the conditions that cells need to function properly can be preserved, even if the surroundings were polluted.

In natural conditions, metabolism is directed with continuous information. When a need arises, an element starts to form as if that need was foreseen somewhere and that matter had been waiting to be used. All that exists has its counterpart in the four-dimensional world. A counterpart is a thought concerning the object, the purpose of its existence. When we find that thought, we get to the primary source of nature and will get to share its unlimited knowledge.

If a cell is cared for only in the physical plane, which is within the reach of our knowledge, its function will weaken in many ways. The function of the astral and etheric planes will gradually paralyze and the flow of information will cease. The cell's functions become limited to the physical plane, and even in this plane its spontaneity diminishes for example as a result of the force feeding of nutrients. Its own capacity to function disappears. The entire cell is only a shadow of what it used to be.

The condition of a weakened plant cell tissue, for instance, can be improved by spraying diluted seaweed extract onto the green parts of the plant. It will invigorate the function of higher planes and may restart the flow of information. The use of tree-ash and biological compost acts in a similar fashion. In principle, animal cells can also be invigorated, but the application of methods may be more difficult.

A healthy cell and its flow of information have a special protective task. An Estonian seer drew attention due to his ability to foresee when the patients in an intensive care unit of a hospital would die. Because of his ability, he was asked to join a research group that investigated the secret of the long age of the Georgian people. His explanation on long life of the Georgians was that, in their etheric part of being, there were cancer cells ready to act, but the good condition of the citizens hindered their spreading and acting in the physical plane. The cell is, therefore, a bearer of an illness but also its captivator. A healthy cell may contain dozens of pathogens, as if in a form of an idea, but they cannot proceed. How many substances meant as a medicine could bring that ability back to a sick cell?

Genes are the cells' plans of action that have originated from the experiences that the cells have had during their development. The experience is crystallized as information. This information is a part of life, all-encompassing wisdom, divinity – however one wishes to name it. Within a cell, the handling and transfer of experiential knowledge into genes takes place. A gene is the cell's memory. We cannot explain the essence of the cell without touching the ultimate questions in life.

The life of a cell has the same goal as everything else that lives – evolution towards perfection. It directs all its activities towards that goal. This goal is also found in the relationships between cells – they strive for perfect co-operation. Co-operation governed by all-encompassing wisdom constructs healthy nature towards higher goals.

# Bioenergy – the energy source of nature

Bioenergy is not a new idea. It has been known for thousands of years in Asia by the name Prana. Also in Europe its study began hundreds of years ago. In the Soviet Union it is called "bioplasm" which reflects the local understanding of bioenergy.

There is plenty of literature in the field but I have not yet found a precise definition of bioenergy. Perhaps it could be best described with the phrase "all-encompassing life force". It is a force without which life is not possible. According to a common understanding, this force is available without limits, but a precondition for receiving it is that an apparatus for its reception is in order.

Based on an extrasensory examination of this matter, I have come to the conclusion that bioenergy originates from three planes: the mental, astral, and etheric planes. The amount of energy coming from different planes varies with different people. The portion derived from the mental plane may be from five to twenty percent depending on the spiritual maturity of the person. The main part of bioenergy, about 40 to 60 percent comes from the astral plane and the rest from the etheric plane.

The amount of bioenergy can be expressed as percentages of the total energy in Joules of the living object. This is suitable for the mutual comparison between objects, but for the measurement of bioenergy we can only, for the time being, use a sensitive person.

It is easiest to measure the width of a living creature's field of bioenergy. The measurement can be conducted with a dowsing rod or a pendulum. Based on the measurement one can, among other things, estimate the state of a person's health. The field of bioenergy around a healthy person stretches to a distance of about 170 centimetres from the body. It can be observed even in a one-month-old embryo if the mother is healthy.

The field of bioenergy is like a protective bag, a reserve that lasts for about forty days without a refill. Human beings receive their bioenergy with the food and water they eat and drink, but most importantly through the energy fields or chakras that exist in the etheric body. A human being has got seven of them and especially the second and third one from the down are functional mediators of energy. Bioenergy can be added to a living object. We can aid the functioning of the human chakras as well as of what is called the Buddhic channel, thereby securing the natural supply of bioenergy.

There are people whose field of bioenergy extends up to three or four metres from the body. They are, without an exception, very healthy and often they have extrasensory abilities. Many people may have a field of energy that is only about three centimetres. It is always a sign of a known or latent illness to which the person has sought help without results. A grown-up person can survive for years with a small field of bioenergy but a newborn baby loses the entire field in a few months if it is less than forty centimetres. This might result in an unexplained crib death unless the reserve of bioenergy is replenished in a natural way.

# Vibration is the pulse of nature

In the etheric level, there is a pulse or the vibration of matter. Every individual, plant, animal, and human being has its own vibration. Every home, locality, country, and the whole planet also has its characteristic vibration which is formed as a kind of average of many factors. The level of vibration represents the circumstances of the object, its health. It must be noted that vibration is not energy, but the continuation of life presupposes a certain level of vibration.

In order to compare vibration levels, I have drawn up a scale that does not describe the actual intensity of vibration but its variation in different localities. For the imagined centre point of Finland, Piippola, I gave the vibration value of 10 in a scale from zero upwards. The values close to zero represent sickness and death and very high values, close to one hundred, represent a so-called miracle healing.

The vibration of the whole of Finland was, according to this scale, at the value of six in February 1987. Fifty years earlier the reading was 35, which is the same as the vibration of a healthy person. From the point of view of health, this value should not have decreased, not even a little bit. There are plenty of sick people among us whose vibration is one and their field of bioenergy is often only three centimetres.

The level of vibration varies somewhat, or else it decreases continuously as is the case in the whole world at the moment. Positive deeds, even thoughts directed towards nature, increase vibration. Negative deeds, which we now see everywhere, lower the vibration levels. When the vibration of the whole Earth decreases close to zero, life on our planet starts to die. The direction is alarming, and the destruction of nature should be ended as quickly as possible.

The highest level of vibration on the Earth is found on the Polar Regions, where the reading is 120. At the top of Mount Everest, vibration is 112. In London, New York, Tokyo, Stockholm, and Helsinki vibration varies between one and two. In the countryside of India, vibration is, on the average, twenty but in New Delhi it is five. In Georgia vibration is exceptionally high, even fifty, but in the local capital Tbilisi it is only five.

There are places where vibration stays much higher than in their surroundings. It is the case for example in the China Town of San Francisco, which is the biggest Chinese community outside mainland China. The vibration of the Chinese suburb is 14, but elsewhere in the city only from one to two, despite the cleaning effect of the Pacific Ocean. An even more convincing example is the Valamo monastery in Heinävesi, Finland. In its garden, vibration is fifty and in the church, in the vicinity of the icon of Konevitsa God Mother, it is as much as ninety. The same level of vibration can be found in France in the water of the spring of Lourdes, whose known healings even the Catholic Church has accepted as miracles.

It has also been found that synthetic materials decrease vibration. Industrial development continuously creates new synthetic products. They can really be called artificial because they have no counterpart in nature. A large proportion of building materials, interior designs, and clothes are made of these materials. If we do not feel well, we get under a blanket made of artificial fibers, and take a couple of synthetic pills. In order to satisfy our daily need of vitamins, we take a bite of an imported apple that has been treated with artificial protective substances many times over. No artificial substance has been found to raise vibration. The substances themselves reduce vibration rather slowly, but a static electricity connected to their use can decrease vibration much faster.

The defenders of synthetic materials often appeal to the fact that there are not enough natural products. Possibly so, but where will we end up if the vibration in our surroundings and in ourselves is constantly decreasing because of artificial materials?

#  Earth rays - "the devil of the depth"

Most physicists are of the opinion that earth rays does not exist because one cannot observe them with measuring instruments. In other words, is it so that some phenomena can be acknowledged only when instruments that are sufficiently developed give permission to it?

An earth ray particle in the etheric plane is a little bit smaller than the graviton. Its mass is about one-hundred thousandth of the mass of the hydrogen atom. When they rise from the ground as a two-centimetre-wide belt, these particles transfer their kinetic energy into other particles of the same size or bigger. In this way, energy is transferred into greater quanta, which even our measuring devices are able to detect. Very sensitive geomagnetometres are suitable for this purpose. At a distance of a few centimetres from the line of earth rays, one can observe electromagnetic radiation.

A sensitive human being can even detect the actual particle of earth rays, for instance, with a dowsing rod or a pendulum. About one-sixth of Middle-European people are able to use the dowsing rod, consciously or unconsciously. Almost half of Finns learn to use the rod with enough practice. The methods of practice will be described later on. There are many kinds of earth rays. Mainly those that of radiation that affect health interest human beings. In this case, we often speak about what is known as water vein radiation. The basic grid of earth rays is, however, constituted by G radiation; the G standing for the word "globus", meaning globe. This radiation covers the whole Earth. Water vein radiation is G radiation, energy that is bound by static electricity caused by the movement of water. Strictly speaking, one should not talk about water veins because water moves underground as bands of various width.

The lines of G radiation form a rough grid following the cardinal directions, a grid whose square size at the equator is about seventy centimetres. When we move towards the poles, the grid becomes less dense so that in the Mediterranean countries, the square size is one and a half metres, in Southern Finland it is about 170 centimetres and in the remotest corner of Lapland about six metres.

Since I have not found a scale describing the magnitude of earth ray intensity from the literature, I have myself compiled one. In a scale from one to ten, the magnitude of G lines vary between 1.5 and 3. Sometimes the radiation of the lines is two, even three times higher compared with this figure, making it harmful to health. Dangerous water vein radiation is around 9 and 9.5.

The significance of G radiation to nature is considerable. Conifers succeed best at the crossings of radiation lines or, at least, at a radiation line. People do not want to consider this fact when renewing forests. Especially in the remotest part of Lapland, the growth of trees is dependent, in a large measure, on G lines. Radiation has also other positive effects in nature. For a human being, earth rays can harm health, and we will discuss the prevention of this later on.

# What do frost damages tell about earth rays?

In the spring of 1985, frost damages had broken our highways worse than ever. A record-cold winter and a two-metre-deep frost were considered to be a reason for this phenomenon. Other reasons were also suspected, and even the possibility of earth rays was discussed. The matter was paid so much attention that even the Director of the Road and Water Board took part in a study concerning the role of earth rays in Middle Finland and in Savo. Several dowsers were involved, the undersigned being one of them.

As objects of study, there were spots along roads that broke down annually even though some of them were rebuilt many times over, even to the depth of two metres. The norms of road engineers did not seem to suffice.

When I studied the matter with extrasensory means, I discovered there were no earth rays involved although the actual cause does not lie in G lines. Underground water flows, or in popular terms water veins, spread their effect up to the surface structure of a road, even from very deep. If frost reaches two metres in some regions, a water bed at the depth of three metres can locally thin the frost layer to half a metre. Even a water vein at the depth of five metres will limit a two-metre deep frost to one metre. Due to this phenomenon, stress-lines are formed in the supporting layers of a road along the water veins, and the surface of the road will break. One cannot get rid of them with technical means. Why does a water vein hinder the deeper spreading of frost? The first thing that comes to mind is, of course, the warmth of water. However, from the depth of five metres it cannot have so great an effect. The actual explanation is concerned with energies in the etheric plane.

The static electricity caused by water veins captivates energy from G radiation and this energy keeps the ground from frosting. The same power protects an ant nest from freezing even in winters of little snow and when surrounded by a two-metre deep frost. This phenomenon speaks of the connection of earth rays with the etheric plane.

Life on the surface layer of the Earth is maintained by an etheric force which influences even the smallest particle. One may call G radiation an intensification of this force. The etheric plane is divided into four bands, each of which having its own force. These forces serve different purposes, but their combined effect is crucial. If the etheric plane is disturbed, the balance between these forces also changes and the consequences are seen in nature, for instance, as the cooling of ground and the air close to it. Air pollutants and the radiation from nuclear experiments and from enriched uranium are what most disturb and destroy the etheric plane.

Dowsers could be of help for road engineers in their design work. What better way to prove the necessity of the study of earth rays than a clear-cut saving of money in road maintenance?

# The scientific study of earth rays

Earth rays have been studied scientifically in universities three times in Finland. The first two trials led to the denial of the whole phenomenon on scientific grounds. The third, ongoing study has expanded into an international co-operation. This work has already passed the point of denial. In all three research projects, so-called dowsers and water finders from different parts of Finland have been used. Their observations have been tried to be confirmed or disproved by scientific or statistical measurements. One has reasons to criticize this research design.

Although the persons participating in the study are experienced finders of water veins, they seldom know that one must assign a task to the dowsing rod with a thought. Only one unconscious thought directs their actions, and it can easily be disturbed and can produce completely random results.

The test procedure has included, among other things, the arrangement that the dowser walks his eyes covered or rides in a closed car. This kind of experiment will surely fail. It has already been proved experimentally in the Soviet Union that dowsers must be able to see their surroundings. Moreover, it is especially difficult to control one's thoughts in experimental conditions and to concentrate on what is essential for success. The negative result then is not at all due to the subject. Of course, the dowsers have to be trained but, first of all, the organizers of the experiments should be educated. An academic degree does not guarantee the capability to study this partly four-dimensional phenomenon.

The study is also made more difficult by the fact that in the ground, there exist many different lines of radiation, the distinction of which is not easy even for an experienced researcher. The radiation from strong G lines is almost at the same level as that from water veins. They can be separated from each other only by thinking. Perhaps the professional pride of water finders sometimes confuses experimental results, as well.

In any case, some progress has been made in the study. The bending of a dowsing rod can already be shown with a recorder that draws a very similar curve with different dowsers. A geomagnetometre, which is independent of the subject, also reinforces human observations. Although the researchers do not want to talk about earth rays here, some electromagnetic flow is, nevertheless, observed to radiate from the ground.

Some claim that they can see the lines of earth rays as a pale, foggy ribbon at the surface level. According to experimental results recently obtained in Poland, this claim is not entirely impossible. In a technical university of Szczecin, a study of earth rays has been started in which dowsers, medical doctors, veterinarians, physicists, and biologists participate. Its purpose is to find out if earth rays are harmful to living nature. For this purpose, a completely new research method has been developed, a method that is based on the observation that an animal, plant, or mineral subjected to earth rays sends off photons or light particles.

The flow of photons is proportional to the the intensity of earth rays. The developer of the method, Professor Jerzy Mazurczak, has analyzed salt subjected to earth rays by a device based on chemiluminescence. If this new method solves the bottleneck questions of earth rays, its developers are worth more than one Nobel Prize. Results are to be expected as soon as in 1989.

# Seek and you will be provided

There are every-day factors around us that could have a considerable positive effect on our health, the quality of our food and on our entire environment. Science, for the time being, does not accept these phenomena, and not even all people have the maturity to adopt the use of higher forces. Therefore, these forms of energy have not been entrusted to the common use of mankind. For those who are sincerely interested in these matters and striving for good, no obstacles have been set, however, for obtaining knowledge and for learning to use it. In the following chapters, I will present some observations and also practical instructions based on my own experiences and studies. Anybody can try them out. The well-being of man and nature is a valuable goal, but getting to know the secrets of nature is in itself infinitely interesting and productive. And it does not necessarily require academic degrees. A sincere and open mind will suffice.

# Nature is the greatest cultivator

A high natural vibration and a large field of bioenergy are prerequisites for the realization of the greatest wonders in nature. One such wonder is the germination of a seed.

When outside circumstances are suitable for germination, a force from the Buddhic plane begins to create a large field of bioenergy and high vibration around the seed. Momentarily, the perfect conditions for the growth of new life are generated. In all its wisdom, this Buddhic force constructs the 55 elements needed for life and, possibly, even some other elements, as well, that only exist in a higher plane. It is impossible to understand this event, because it begins in a six-dimensional world and only its final result, the quarks and atoms of the elements, can be sensed in the three-dimensional world. This process may be simple for nature, as long as there are enough bioenergy and vibration.

From the selection of elements, enzymes are constructed, which also creates a great protection for the duration of the germination. Due to this protection, for instance the primary root that forces itself into the ground is able to withstand the attack of fungi and bacteria. When the growth of roots and leaves begins, the protective force diminishes and the plant has to fight for its existence.

The above figure illustrates the change of bioenergy associated with the germination of a wheat seed. The horizontal axis shows the length of a sprout in centimetres. The same curve could also be used to describe the magnitude of vibration as well as the development of the element and vitamin reserves, as all these factors are greatly dependent on one other.

The field of bioenergy is at its widest when the sprout has grown to the length of six centimetres. The climax is the same even if the sprout had grown in the dark, but the amount of bioenergy would be smaller, perhaps only 85 percent compared to one grown in light. Considering the use of sprouts, it is advisable to give them light at least during the final stages of germination.

Independent of the vibration at the beginning, vibration will increase during germination to a value of about 50. The materialization of elements will start and a protective cover will develop on the sprout. Therefore, germination will succeed almost anywhere. "The cosmic help" received by the sprout will diminish rather soon but not catastrophically, if it has a biological substrate. On a non-biological substrate, such as one that has strong fertilizers, the decrease of bioenergy and other protection is much faster. The cultivation of sprouts does not demand any specific substrate; germination will succeed even on a moistened paper. However, the actual biological cultivation of useful plants demands greater professional skill.

# A dead or a living substrate?

Over one hundred years ago, the German baron von Herzeele showed in his studies that plants are able to transform elements into others. Other scientists denied this observation as impossible and the studies were forgotten for a century. In 1950's, Professor Pierre Baranger of the technical university of Paris rediscovered von Herzeele's results and started to replicate his experiments. The results were similar to von Herzeele, but they did not receive publicity for the same reason as the results of von Herzeele in his time. Today, these experiments lead regularly to a negative result, because it is not understood that a plant is only able to accomplish these results in nature, by actively extracting nutritional substances from a biological substrate that does not contain strong fertilizers.

The demand for effectiveness has spread out to farming and gardening. With fewer production expenses and with a smaller work load, one aims at ever increasing yields. For instance, in the cultivation of cucumber in a greenhouse, the soil must be changed annually, which is cumbersome and expensive. In addition, there are risks involved with the change of soil, such as the appearance of pests, fungi and bacteria. So it is no wonder that many cucumber farmers have chosen a different substrate that seems cheaper and more secure. The solution has been rock wool.

In this method of cultivation, a dead material such as rock wool, clippings of plastic or even a small layer of peat is chosen as a substrate. Only a little bit of material is needed. A computer calculates and monitors the mixture of fertilizers sprayed onto the substrate. The same machine takes care of the ventilation, heating and the humidity control of the greenhouse. The crop can be harvested by anybody so that a proper gardener is hardly required.

These plants and vegetables are constructed from the elements contained in the water and fertilizers they have received. The aim is to include all the sixteen elements functioning in the physical plane into the plants' nutrient solution. These elements are also discussed in physiology textbooks. But the products of rock wool cultivation do not correspond to the structures of vegetables we have become used to throughout history. A great deal of elements is missing from them. Instead, they contain possible impurities that are lobbied by the supporters of effective cultivation to replace the micronutrients provided by a biological substrate. Furthermore, these products have no bioenergy, and also vibration is the smallest possible. These vegetables are not human energy sources like plants cultivated in the traditional way. The yield is plentiful and there also seems to be demand for it. And so, this new method of cultivation spreads.

#  A biological substrate – humus

The Finnish Nobel Prize awarded chemist A.I. Virtanen has said that nature reclaims all the elements contained in ash. Only with their help, can enzymes and other substances that guide the growing process be constructed. This cycle has been applied also in Finnish nature independently of man for the last ten thousand years. Everything has again and again risen from the ashes without the appearance of any harmful residues. Our present forests have developed by this method, although man has been reducing humus by hindering birch from participating in the renewal of the substrate.

Natural growth is a harmonious event. It is nature's own biological cultivation. It requires living humus in which the root hairs of plants and the fungal roots extending from tree roots can co-operate with soil microbes and with the nutritional supply in the humus.

In the cycle of nature, the layer of humus has several tasks. It contains a huge amount of small soil particles, ground colloids, with which important metal nutrients in the form of cations form electrical bonds. They will not be washed off with rain like strong fertilizers are. The root hairs and fungal roots exchange these particles with hydrogen ions. It is a part of the active uptake of nutrients.

Another task of the humus layer is the processing of forest litter and other plant waste into humus. Different micro-organisms, bacteria, insects, spiders, angleworms, and earthworms do the work. It has been estimated that biological soil contains, as its best, 25 tons of living material per hectare. In this kind of soil, plant-protective agents and water-soluble fertilizers cause somewhat of a catastrophe. When the amount of foreign substances increases, life gradually dies out in the substrate. In order to support growth, fields must be sown with more and more granulated, mixed fertilizers to be dissolved in the water. This is often associated with an ever increasing use of plant-protective agents.

The third task of humus is the absorption of nitrogen in the air for plant use. This phenomenon, called nitrification, is a natural process that does not require human help. Nitrifying bacteria live in many different conditions, even on the root surfaces of couch grass. Nitrification is a very sensitive event and will be stopped by nitrogen fertilization. If ash is used instead, the nitrifying bacteria will multiply, and it will also be seen in growth.

There is also plenty of energy in the humus layer and a high level of vibration that speaks of its versatile activity. For instance in the nitrification process, vibration can increase to a reading of 35 or even higher. Bioenergy will also increase. This process creates a large molecule in which six thousand out of three hundred thousand atoms are nitrogen. The atoms and molecules participating in the processes of humus are generally living; that is, they have the etheric part of being. Thus, the plant does not have to give them life as will happen if the plant is offered the dead atoms of strong fertilizers.

Humus is a self-maintaining system. The life in it creates its own level of vibration and a field of bioenergy. These properties, again, will help the decomposition of plant litter. Additional help will be given by the radiation energy of the sun that is bound in cellulose and other carbohydrates and freed when they decompose. Also, rain water increases the bioenergy in humus unless the oxides of sulfur and nitrogen have reduced it from the water.

Each of the organisms living in humus has a specific task. For instance, a common angleworm possesses a surprising skill. Birch leaves passing through its intestines change into soil that is much more alkaline than that produced from leaves that have decayed otherwise. This phenomenon has been thoroughly studied in the biology department of the University of Jyväskylä. In my opinion, the explanation lies in the strong field of bioenergy surrounding the angleworm and in the high vibration. In these circumstances, elements can easily transform into others.

Man can create a biological substrate by composting. Instructions are found in many books of the field. A compost pile that has been built up from appropriate raw materials can be warmed up. Then, the bioenergy and the level of vibration in the compost will increase strongly. The building process of elements begins. It may be small in quantity, but it extends into three planes.

When there is a shortage of biological humus, as in the heaths of Lapland, trees and plants themselves have to resort to this same method. Trees receive the required micronutrients as quanta from higher planes by using their own energy and vibration fields. Thus, they withstand centuries even in meager conditions as long as the circumstances are natural. If a helpful human fertilizes the poor forest soil, he spoils the trees' own delicate physiology. The trees may grow faster, but their natural protection suffers.

A forest planter swearing by effectiveness can try his skill by planting or sowing a pine tree in the scant amount of humus in a crevice of a rocky islet. I bet the experiment will not succeed, even though nature will succeed anywhere on the most barren island of a see or a lake. That is because nature chooses as the growth spot the crossing of earth ray lines, without which a tree will not prosper, especially not in meager conditions. This holds true also in the forest plantings in the remotest parts of Lapland, but the planters of these treeless spots do not, unfortunately, take it into consideration.

On a biological substrate, the plant and the substrate function in harmony. When the plant strives for optimal growth, its result is also the best possible for people. In products that have been grown biologically, the nitrogen compounds always exist as healthy proteins in the plant cells and not, for instance, as loose nitrates as the case may be in plants cultivated with strong fertilizers. Other nutrients are in the right proportions from the human point of view. The aim of fertilization is only the biggest possible crop. The health of the crop user is not considered in these calculations.

It is asked sometimes, what difference there is between biological and biodynamic cultivation. The most important difference, in my opinion, is guiding the process of composting so that the result is more valuable for cultivation. One could compare biodynamic cultivation with the use of wine yeast instead of ordinary yeast in preparing home wine. More skill and experience is needed, but biodynamic cultivation also requires spiritual knowledge from the person interested in it. Carefully managed biological farming is a completely satisfactory solution for a beginner and, in fact, for anybody.

# How does nature grow forest?

In the huge primeval forests in Canada and Siberia, natural forest fires are an everyday event. The situation was the same in Finnish forests for a few hundred years ago. The burnt area has been quickly occupied by birch and its leaf litter has started to form new forest humus.

The above figure illustrates the development of a forest's soil fertility after a natural forest fire. These observations are based on extrasensory examination, and they describe an average situation in the Southern and Middle Finland. In the figure, the horizontal axis represents both time and the base level of soil fertility before a forest fire. The vertical axis represents the variation of soil fertility in relation to the base level. The intersection of the axes is the time of the fire.

If only birch is growing in the burnt area, its effect on fertility is at first very good but after a few decades, fertility starts to decrease. The development is even worse when birch is coupled with seedlings of spruce or pine. But when a forest containing three kinds of trees – birch, spruce, pine; each in approximately the same amount – starts to grow, the fertility of the soil improves astronomically. In half a century, the level of fertility is perhaps tripled from the base level, and then begins to slowly decrease. The life force in humus remains better than in the beginning for almost two hundred years when two thirds of the trees are conifers, which is really surprising. Anyone who has tried to make a compost pile knows how difficult it is to transform conifer litter into soil. In a forest soil this material has turned out to be superior, but only if the wood in question is made up of three types of trees in equal proportions. In such a mixed forest, renewal is continuous. Leaf trees allow plenty of light to enter the forest, so that new coniferous seedlings can grow up all the time. Two hundred "fat" years already contain several tree generations.

Why is the humus generated by three types of trees so vigorous? Firstly, it has a strong field of bioenergy and high vibration. This will activate soil microbes to decompose the forest litter. The second reason has to do with chemical events. It seems that certain organic compounds known as chelates are formed in the soil, and these compounds enclose metal atoms in their molecules. These metals are normal nutrients, but the armor of organic matter will slow down their release into circulation. This phenomenon regulates and evens out the availability of nutrients for a long time.

The productivity of a mixed forest consisting of three types of trees is considerably higher than that of a forest containing only one or two types of trees and growing on a weak substrate. In principle, they are left-over woods, in which the humus weakens until the next forest fire. Today's forest renewal always begins with the humus of the previous forest, perhaps after a slight turning over. It means poorer and poorer fertility. The broken lines beneath the horizontal axis in the figure illustrate this bleak trend.

What is the development of humus like in pure birch forests, which, nowadays, are established in fields and after clearfelling? Fertility seems to decrease slightly during the first three decades. After that it increases a little bit and ends up above the starting level up until the sixth decade, after which it decreases steeply. The woods are falling into decay. The situation would be different if, instead of birch trees only, also seedlings of spruce and pine were planted. Humus would, in fact, weaken in the beginning, but during the third or fourth decade, fertility would increase to a point above the starting level, and in the eight decade, it would be as much as one and a half times higher. At the age of a good century, humus begins to weaken again and fertility decreases to the starting level because the ratio of different types of trees has changed too much.

Our present methods of renewing forests are overhasty. Never is the renewal started with planting birch, whose task is to build new forest humus. Only afterwards, in 30 to 40 years, would pine and spruce seedlings be planted, unless they have, by then, appeared by themselves. This method would be in accordance with nature's forest science.

# Why do forest plantings fail?

After the Second World War, people in the south-eastern part of the United States started to establish fast-growing pine forests for the raw material of the expanding pulp industry. The beginning seemed very promising and the planting was extended to even wider areas. In 1984, the growth was already 164 million cubic metres; three times the size of the wood production in Finnish forests. The tip of the growth was expected to take place around 1990 at about 190 million cubic metres, but the growth figures have unexpectedly decreased. According to a new estimation, the production of that year will only be 130 million cubic metres. In reality, the dive will be even steeper. Several causes for the slowdown of the growth have been suggested, but the most important cause has not even been mentioned: the woods have been stripped of their own means of protection against external destructive forces.

The Finnish wild pine is an example of a tree capable for protecting itself. It has grown for centuries despite the changes in weather. Even as a snag, it stands for over a hundred years, unlike its fellow creature that died of Scleroderris canker and decays, still standing, in a few weeks.

If a tree cannot protect itself from a destructive effect, it has either lost its ability to protect itself, or the cause of the destruction is new and unknown to the tree's protective system. There has, therefore, been a change either in the seedling, the environment of the tree or both. In our country, both kinds of changes have occurred.

What destiny awaits a stand of young pine trees in Finland? To estimate their outcome takes, clearly, a long time. If the growth period of cabbage is approximately one hundred days, we can see if it has been successful first after thirty days from its planting. A Finnish pine grows for one hundred years, but even thirty years does not seem to be enough to evaluate whether or not the stand of saplings will ever become a forest that can be harvested. What we can see for sure, however, is that pine seedlings that have been grown and planted with hard work from the seeds of choice trees produce pines of poor quality. These tree breeders, in their industrial blindness, are proud of their young trees, but for how long?

In our country, a tree grows much slower than in the United States, in the area mentioned above. The misfortunes experienced over there are, therefore, still ahead of us in Finland. Are we more aware of the dangers affecting forests than people in the United States, and what are we doing to avoid them? The only thing that is done seems to be endless replanting. When even that fails, one can only hope that the wild seedlings will succeed.

The reputation of Finnish forestry techniques hang in the balance. It is time to learn from our own and other's mistakes. Forest catastrophes are not only statistical accidents but harsh reality.

# Know-it-all forestry

In February 1987, a study on the state of Canada's industrial forests was published. The results were alarming. The growth had decreased to one-third, and there is a risk that entire tree types will disappear in the next few years. The reason for this was found in the enormous sulfur emissions from both Canada's and USA's industry. A sulfur deposition of fifty million tons burdens the area annually. As sulfuric acid, it would total one hundred and fifty million tons. An unbelievable amount.

The annual dose of sulfur received by Canada's forests would mean fifteen tons per acre when spread over the surface of Lake Päijänne. Even less than that would be enough to kill everything in the lake. It might be possible to destroy all lakes and much more in Finland with that amount of sulfur. It would be enough to instantly destroy all of our forests. Half a kilo of sulfuric acid per square metre would char all the plants. Experts might be able to calculate the minimum dose for total destruction.

Whatever that dose would be, in time it will settle over our forests. However, it does not seem to worry us. More lively discussion is generated by the rise in car prices, for instance. We rely too much on the authorities to take care of even the forests on our behalf. But they do not know about forestry any more than we do. There are plenty of know-it-all advisers. But whose interests do they represent?

The Department of Forestry has found it good to start timber cutting in the untouched forests east of Lake Inari. The economic arguments of this undertaking aside, I may evaluate its outlook from the point of view of forestry practice.

It is useless to worry about the claim that unharvested trees would decay in the forests of Lapland. At the most, they would become snags and that only increases their value.

The illusion of renewing the forests in Northern Lapland after felling can be discarded. There is no proof of a final success in forest cultivation even hundreds of kilometres further south. We must be prepared for the possibility that these forests will never renew themselves but that tundra will spread into the open places.

The circumstances around the time when those forests were born were very different from what they are nowadays. Nature was clean and there was no burden from acid rain. Based on an extrasensory examination, I surmise that pine forests were born during long, warm periods when seedlings had time to grow above the snow level. We cannot guarantee similar circumstances for modern forest planting. Seedlings will not succeed whether they were grown from seeds or produced from old trees by cloning.

It has also been thought that we could expedite the growth of pine from several hundreds of years to perhaps only a hundred and thirty years with modern forestry methods. It might be mere wishful thinking. It takes at least two hundred and fifty years without the effects of acid rain before the first ten planted pine trees are, at their base, suitable for a five and half metre saw log. This kind of timing hardly fits into the schedules of timber companies.

The biological facts suggest that forests are not renewed with present methods. It is better to leave this task to nature. One alternative, at least in principle, would be that trees were felled in strips and all leaf trees were left in their places. This would preserve the life of the substrate and the conditions for the natural regeneration of forests would be better. This method requires time and patience but must be accepted as a necessity.

Also the much-discussed greenhouse effect affects our forests significantly. As the global climate gets warmer, drought kills forests in some areas. In certain northern areas, rains increase as the weather gets milder, and the conditions for growth improve.

We cannot be absolutely sure whether the climate is warming up, because all the factors are perhaps not yet known. It is better to not promise a warming climate quite yet, because the events may have unexpected turns.

Due to industry and possible volcanic eruptions, ammonium is emitted into the air. It seems that this gas and carbon dioxide in sufficient mixtures are able to reflect the sun's radiation energy back to the space enough to enable the climate to cool. In fact, this has already begun in patches. Up to now, it is manifested in significant disturbances in the weather.

# Health is a natural way of life

People are well when their own protective actions work perfectly. For this to happen, all the necessary elements and vitamins must be available to them. The quality of our environment and our food is decreasing and threatens our health. Those who wish to take care of themselves must find out what energy reserves need replenishing, and what matters need re-evaluation. There are, of course, many practical opportunities. However, it is necessary to be aware of the basic matters affecting the quality of nutrition and the environment. A self-directed student can learn much from them.

# The dowsing rod – a wooden computer

A dowsing rod is a versatile study tool. Unfortunately, only a half of Finns can learn to use it. Those who consider the use of a dowsing rod as nonsense hardly bother to learn it. Among those who are sincerely interested in learning, the success rate after a couple of days practice is as high as eighty percent.

A dowsing rod is generally a flexible fork which has been cut from a living tree and is formed by the tree top and a branch or by two branches. The length of the branches is 40 to 60 centimetres. In Finland, a temporary rod is often cut from willow but any tree will do. A rod can also be made from metal wire or metal sheet. In England, they use a device in which two metal wires bent perpendicularly approach each other under the influence of radiation.

The branch inside the user's palm has to be so thin that it can be bent almost at a right angle without breaking it. A willow of a pencil's diameter is suitable for this purpose. The rod must remain horizontal within the hand.

The right hold of the rod has to be learned carefully. The rod in itself is a lifeless device that turns with the hands' movement. When one looks for earth rays, the quanta moving upwards around the lines of these rays and the electro-magnetic field formed by them affect the sympathetic nerve system of the rod users so that their hands will twist inwards. Therefore, the rod turns downwards and the holder feels that the rod turns by its own force. The first experience of this can be baffling.

The right hold can be found for instance in the following way:

- Sit down at a table and put the rod on the table so that the fork opens up to your direction. Put your hands on the table, the backs of your hands tightly against the surface of the table and fingers, also the thumb, apart.

- With the right hand, put the left branch of the rod on the left palm and take it in an underhand grip. Do not turn the left hand inwards but keep the back of your hand still tight against the table.

- Grasp the right branch with the right hand also in an underhand grip and with the back of the hand against the table. The fists must now be about 40 centimetres away from the body. Now the position is right.

- Stand up from the table and hold the rod horizontally. Do not allow the hands to twist inwards.

- Move slowly ahead; proceed about one metre in three seconds.

- If you are looking for G radiation, go in the cardinal directions and you will cross the radiation lines in a straight angle. The water veins are less uniform.

- When you start moving, you must concentrate your thoughts on the thing you are looking for. If you think about G lines, the rod recognizes them only. The wave length of water vein radiation is slightly higher and they can be more easily found by a beginner.

- Do not get nervous even if the rod does not bend right away. And even if you do succeed straight away, there is still a lot of practice ahead of you. Only with practice can you become sure about finding just what you are looking for and that the result is the same despite the direction you approach your target from.

- The practice may take weeks, even months. It is quite common that the rod will not react in any way at first. But do not give up. Without the encouragement of other people, I myself might have given up trying. You can practice a couple of times daily, a few minutes at a time. More practice is not useful, for the changes in the human body take their time.

A divination instrument that is comparable with the dowsing rod is the pendulum. There are several publications discussing its use, especially in German. Usually the pendulum is a metal bullet weighing a few grams and tied into a few-centimetre-long string. It can be used to make equally accurate observations than with a rod. The basics of its use are, perhaps, easier to learn than those of a rod, but its complete mastery requires much practice. The rod and the pendulum are sometimes used together. For instance, the site of a well is sought out with a rod, and the depth and amount of water is studied using a pendulum. The strength of a newly-formed line of earth rays are also often measured with a pendulum. When a pendulum spins around over three hundred times per minute, the magnitude of the field corresponds to a value of 9.5 in the scale of the intensity of earth rays.

# High moral is the rod's instruction

The dowsing rod can be used for many other purposes besides looking for earth rays. It is suitable for the general observation of extrasensory objects, as long as it is given a specific task, such as the measurement of the width of a bioenergy field. With practice, a dowser can accomplish even quite demanding tasks. The goal of the action must always be morally acceptable, such as helping or studying nature. Otherwise, the results can be misleading. Moreover, one must not change one's skill into money.

The rod is, however, only an auxiliary device that an experienced investigator can put aside. When one is sufficiently familiar with the system of nature, one will find that answers can be obtained directly in thoughts to the questions one poses. This is what I call extrasensory examination or study. In the beginning, the questioner is surely baffled by the great trust shown to him in mediating the answers. This ability must be received with the greatest humility. To me, this possibility was given about ten years ago and I am very grateful for it.

# Observations with the rod near the home

When you have acquired a routine in observing earth rays, you can try finding bioenergy fields. The task and the object have to be named in one's thoughts or in words, for instance: "I seek the bioenergy field of that flower". You must be able to look at the object. The field can be found surprisingly easily.

The bioenergy field in a healthy human is about 170 centimetres outside the body; that of a sick person is much closer. If the person is not around, you may visualize them for example standing near the door. Also in this way, the measurement of the bioenergy field succeeds.

The bioenergy field of a raw egg extends to a few centimetres outside the shell. A boiled egg does not have a field at all. This is another way of distinguishing between a raw and a boiled egg.

You can measure the bioenergy field of a glass of water, and it should extend to about 4 to 12 centimetres from the glass. In an exceptional case, one may find spring water, the field of which stretches up to two and a half metres from the glass. Such a spring is very valuable, because air pollution does not reach its base.

You can monitor the changes in the bioenergy field of plants with small experiments. Dry and tar-like seaweed extract, which can be obtained from natural product stores, is mixed with water approximately in the ratio of 1 to 500. The mixture is sprayed on the leaves of potted plants growing in a light place so that the leaves become wet. In the best case, as soon as after a couple of hours, you can observe that the bioenergy field of the plant has increased two to threefold. It can stay at that level for weeks, which will also be evident by the well-being of the plant.

You can get a similar result by mixing an even teaspoonful of ash taken from a fireplace into a cup of water. This mixture is poured onto the roots of a flower. This time, the bioenergy field grows very slowly.

The following experiment yields a completely different result. One gram of calcium nitrate is mixed with a litre of water, and this solution is sprayed on a flower. After a short while, you can see that the bioenergy field is diminishing. The flow of the etheric body of the plant accelerates and bioenergy starts to leave the plant. The growth of biomass accelerates, surely, but the well-being of the plant and its ability to protect itself decreases.

# Using the rod in a forest

For a person practicing the use of the dowsing rod, a forest is an interesting place for study. There, you can improve both your knowledge of nature and your observational skills.

Locate a tall pine or spruce. With the rod, you will find that it grows in the crossing of G radiation lines. When you follow the lines, you will meet more tall conifers either along the line or in line crossings. There are trees also farther away from the lines. A birch will never grow on a G line. However, even around a birch tree, you can find short radiation lines resembling the base of a Christmas tree if you direct your thoughts to find them. If you find a free crossing of G lines in a forest, you can kick into the humus of that spot an open patch, exposing the mineral soil. That spot will become a place where morel mushrooms will grow for several years.

Another interesting object of study is the trees' fields of activity. In general, each tree has two of them. They are concentric, spherical fields, the innermost of which encircles the tree with a radius of the edge of the crown. The radius of the outer circle is a couple of metres wider, if the forest is relatively sparse. In a more dense forest, the fields of the same tree type will collide and flatten out. The fields of activity of different types of trees intersect without disturbing each other. Therefore, a mixed forest seems to be the most natural state for trees to thrive in. The fields of activity are trees' protective areas, which function in the etheric plane. They surround the tree like a cone. They protect the tree for example from pollution and radiation.

You can examine the condition of these fields of activity. Usually, you will find that the protective effect of both spheres is diminished, the outer sphere more than the inner one. Perhaps only 20 to 30 percent of the protection of a pine growing in a poor and dry heath may be left. The decrease in the natural protection of trees is alarming.

You may also find the nest of a song thrush, built of the fibers of a decayed tree. If you happen to be there in the right time, you will have plenty of interesting things to follow for weeks. You can examine, without touching, a new bluish egg and observe that its bioenergy field is about three centimetres wide. When all the eggs have been laid in the nest and they have been hatched for about a week, the radius of bioenergy is three times as large. The bioenergy field of a one-week-old nestling is only six centimetres wide and stays that way until its first flight. In this way nature directs the early stages of new life.

You can make similar measurements when following the bud of a birch from late winter to summer. The bioenergy of a resting bud is two centimetres wide. When the bud starts to green and the birch is budding, the field is as much as 12 centimetres. The bioenergy field of a fully-grown birch is two centimetres. In spring, all powers are put into motion. You can preserve the high energy charge of the buds by freezing the awakening buds or by preserving them in alcohol. The buds can be used to make tea. However, do not boil the tea water for it will lose its bioenergy. It is sufficient if the water is just beginning to simmer.

# The rod answers your questions

The dowsing rod and the pendulum have versatile uses. An experienced user can find the site of a building torn down a long time ago, find out the year of building and even the name of the builder. You can also examine the effect of different materials on bioenergy and, of course, you can seek ground water.

An experienced dowser does not have to walk around the area being studied. He stands in one place and asks the head of the house how wide a radius he must cover in search of a place for a well. The dowser then asks, perhaps out loud, how many possible wells there are inside this radius and begins to count: "one, two, three..." At the right answer – say, three – the rod will bend. Next, he asks, in what direction the best place for the well is. The dowser turns slowly around, and the answer will come when the rod bends. After that, he asks the distance from the spot where he is standing. Again he counts metres, and the rod will bend at the right answer. After that he asks the decimetres. When the direction and the distance have been received, the dowser starts to walk into the said direction. In practice, the rod already leads its user. When the dowser comes to the right spot, he can use the same method to find out at what depth the water exists and how many litres per minute one can get from it.

This is a somewhat more "modern" method for finding a well, which is not based on the search of water veins. If the head of the household takes a very sceptical stand towards the whole thing, you can, with the same method, seek the worst possible spot for a well, and let him dig his well there.

# Using the rod for human diagnoses

It may sound unbelievable that people's health can also be studied with a dowsing rod. But it can be used, for instance, to examine a person's balance of micronutrients and vitamins. You can find out how many percent of the micronutrient reserve is left. This reserve consists of all the necessary elements. You can also receive an answer to the question, how many seaweed capsules are needed to refill the reserve.

In different parts of Europe, there are medical doctors who use the dowsing rod or the pendulum for a preliminary study of their patients' health. There are many ways to do this. The aim is usually to define the condition of an organ, such as the liver, in a scale of one to ten. The specific location of the organ's deterioration can also be found. There can be considerable differences between the pulmonary lobes; similarly, you can discover that one of the patient's kidneys has deteriorated, which the patient experiences for example as back ache. These observations are meant as hints for medical doctors in their actual work. It is a whole different matter whether or not this information interests them. More and more doctors have already dared to break the confines of their social class by taking a favourable stand to extrasensory methods in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases.

# The maintenance of human bioenergy

The most important guarantee of health for us as well as for other living creatures is the maintenance of our own system of protection. We can affect it in many ways. Food and drink are important factors both for our elementary nourishment and for our bioenergy. But there are many other channels as well through which we can maintain these elements and our bioenergy.

When we discussed the different planes of the human body, chakras and what are known as the Buddhic channel were also mentioned. Through them we also receive bioenergy from the higher planes. It is important for both our mental and our physical health that they remain functional.

You can perceive the chakras as glowing swirls, 5 to 7 centimetres in diametre. Their darkening is a sign that their ability to function has deteriorated. The reason for this lies often in spiritual problems or relationship issues. The cleaning of chakras is a demanding task that is better left to the experts. There are severe risks involved in the simple instructions often given for conditioning chakras.

The Buddhic channel may become blocked for the same reasons that chakras do. However, it is easier to open it. Anyone, who has learned to increase bioenergy and vibration, is able to do it. And these are skills that can be learned by anyone willing to learn.

# Increasing bioenergy

Bioenergy exists everywhere in large amounts. We can learn to increase it or transfer it into a desired object. The transfer is an event of mediation in which we do not give out of our own reserves. Neither is it a new or strange event. Some customs such as the blessing of food or the water used for baptism are, in essence, the increase of bioenergy in the object, mediated by those present.

It is easy to practice increasing bioenergy with a glass of water. In our conditions, water still contains some bioenergy, and it can be increased by the following exercise.

Put a glass of cold water on a table in front of you. Place your palms around the glass a few centimetres away from it with the sides of your hands against the table. Let your hands and fingers relax.

Concentrate on the following request: I ask for the ability to mediate bioenergy into this water as much as it is allowed. When you have managed to concentrate completely on this thought, sit completely freely and relaxed in this position for a few minutes.

Because you do not really have the possibility to see if the experiment was successful, repeat it after a few hours or in the following day. Change the water in the glass and repeat the above steps.

We can tell by experience that almost everybody manages to increase the bioenergy in the glass of water at the third time. Therefore, repeat the exercise three times to be sure. Now you have learned this skill. How can you verify it?

A test person can be someone from at home who is temporarily suffering from a headache or tiredness. Before you offer them the water, you can increase its potency with the following requests.

When you have learnt to increase the bioenergy in water, you can also increase its vibration and help to open the Buddhic channel. After mediating the bioenergy, ask immediately that the vibration of that water rise as high as it is allowed. If you know the person whom the water is meant for, you may ask that their Buddhic channel would open up. If you drink the water yourself as refreshment after a day's work, you can ask the same thing for yourself. Water possessing high bioenergy and vibration is a valuable help. It removes, for instance, migraine or other aches, if specially asked.

I emphasize again, that the bioenergy that is transferred into the water is not coming from your own reserves. When the task of mediation starts to go well, the glass of water can be in another room or even in a different country and the people involved can be connected even by phone.

The use of a glass of water is primarily an exercise. Bioenergy can be increased directly in the object of your care whether it is a person, animal, plant, ants' nest or even a human organ. A patient having suffered a heart attack can improve in an intensive care unit by a transfer of bioenergy from their friend.

Bioenergy can be increased in food and drink. It stays there for about five hours during which time the food must be eaten. Once inside us, the bioenergy will not escape anymore. The increase of bioenergy can relieve the irritation of the organs, as was the case with a Canadian investigator. He liked coffee but his stomach did not. When he mediated bioenergy into the coffee before he drank it, his stomach did not become irritated anymore.

Some domestic flowers can greatly benefit from the increase of bioenergy, but only when it is light. During the plants' resting period in winter, the increase of bioenergy may disturb them. As such, the increase of bioenergy never does damage.

# The robbers of bioenergy

There are people among us who, usually without knowing it, use others' bioenergy. Already a few hours' stay in the company of such a person causes fatigue. Afterwards, we may think that person was really harsh. Such a person is a kind of a vampire, robbing the life force of other people.

The beings of the astral plane can also rob the life force of those in the physical plane. A typical situation is a séance, which is usually maintained by the bioenergy of those present. The astral being that has taken the place of the astral body of the medium tries to suck bioenergy from the participants of the meeting in order to continue its own life. Some people are especially vulnerable for such robbing. I have had to help for example young, sensitive women who have gone into a hysteric state after a séance. One must immediately mediate new bioenergy to them, which, fortunately, is no difficult task.

Also abnormal conditions may reduce bioenergy. The summer of 1988 witnessed one of the most severe heat waves in a century. Health centres were full of patients who, in one way or another, were suffering from the excessive heat. There were surprising symptoms, such as ear infections in adults and different kinds of joint aches in the young.

The symptoms caused by excessive heat are well-known for scientists. The heat excites the function of the cells and increases energy consumption. Plants may react in such a way that flower buds do not develop. The sugar that forms onto tomato leaves during daytime does not move away if the night temperature is too high.

I examined the effect of that heat wave on people who, in the beginning of June, had the normal, 170-centimetre-wide bioenergy field and a vibration level of 35. The results are shown in the following table.

The figures that I have shown are averages, and the values of an individual may differ considerably from these. Babies and those approaching the middle-age seem to suffer the most. As a whole, heat is a very problematic weather type for northern people, and it also strains the psyche. People who settle permanently in warm countries can, with their own will power, affect the adaptation of their organs. Thus, the difficulties will soon subside.

The treatment of heat patients in health centres could be much easier if someone in the personnel were able to increase the patients' bioenergy and vibration. The symptoms and treatment might be similar also in record-cold winters.

# The mysterious task of the spleen

When you help other people by mediating bioenergy to them and by increasing their vibration, you can target their spleen as a special object together with general aid.

The spleen's task in a human organism is still somewhat of a mystery to scientists. It is known that it, among other things, destroys red blood cells and produces antigens against some diseases. But a person can survive without the spleen, if it, for one reason or the other, becomes damaged or is removed. What then is the meaning of this organ?

When observed with extrasensory means, the spleen seems to be a channel through which matter materializes from the higher planes into the astral or etheric body of the person. The materialization can continue all the way to the plane of the physical body, if it is necessary. In order for the materialization to begin, information is required, a request. In a healthy person, this information and the subsequent process function automatically in the cells on every plane. For a sick person, the information must be produced by external means, such as by homeopathy, to which we return later on.

If the spleen has been removed or its function has deteriorated, the person is left without the elemental care of the astral and etheric bodies. They must get on with only the sixteen elements of the physical plane, providing that they are available. This reserve can be replenished for instance by seaweed products or tree ash, but even these methods are not universal. If the bioenergy field has reduced to half and vibration decreased correspondingly, the person's protective and regulating mechanisms function improperly. The essential vitamins and elements pass the physical body without any significant effect.

I have observed several cancer patients and found out that for all of them, the spleen has become paralyzed. The same is true for patients of many other diseases. When the element reserve decreases, the etheric body of these people becomes sick and illness gradually moves into the physical body. If the situation in the etheric body cannot be prepared, there are no lasting possibilities for physical recovery, either.

In her wonderful purposefulness and variety, nature has planned certain reserve systems for the spleen. It seems that the ovaries in women and the prostate in men can, in some degree, replace the function of the spleen as the mediator of elements.

We should pay more attention to the unknown field of the spleen. If the capacity of this organ to function has diminished temporarily, I would think that it can be also restored by acupuncture.

# Good health requires the maintenance of protection

Medicine as well as any other research of living creatures should focus on clarifying how a living creature's own means of protection can be kept as efficient as possible.

The increase of diseases, especially of cancer, is mainly explained by the changed environmental factors. As far as AIDS is concerned, the explanation is said to be an immune deficiency caused by a virus. Could we not say that most of our "cultural diseases" are caused by a certain kind of immune deficiency, a decrease in our general resistance?

Up until the Second World War, the bioenergy field of Finns was, on average, 170 centimetres and the level of vibration about 35. These values were enough to guarantee people's element supply. The element reserve was actively replenished, and people's own protective ability was superb. Nowadays, even these values do not suffice for good health. Therefore, changes have also taken place in the environment.

In a healthy person, nature's own elemental process works, changing elements into others. In this case, nutrition is not that important. When the person's condition weakens, the elemental process also disappears and the person receives their elements from nutrition only. However, there are fewer and fewer essential elements in our food every year.

Based on extrasensory observations, we can see that our nutrition has changed shockingly. Milk fresh from the cow has a strong field of bioenergy but heat-treated milk has none. Dairy products produced with bacteria have life, but it is derived from the microbes. The humus in fields has almost been killed by strong fertilizers and plant-protective agents, which has resulted in a steep decrease in the vibration and bioenergy of grain and feed. It is also manifested in dairy products and meat.

Half a century ago, the bioenergy field of a Danish apple was about ten centimetres, now it is eight! A domestic apple still has a field of about eight centimetres. The bioenergy of imported apples has decreased by the impoverishment of their substrate and plant-protective agents. In some cases, fruit have been radiated in order to increase their shelf-life. They are completely dead products, but how can you tell unless you have, for instance, the skill to use the dowsing rod.

Experts urge us to eat a variety of foods in order to stay healthy. But what should we eat then? Bread, milk, meat – no way! All of them reduce vibration and bioenergy. What then?

We, at least to a certain point, make our own luck. We still have a chance to obtain organic products, which, together with Finnish forest berries and mushrooms, we can use to make good-quality food. We only need to be mentally mature enough to make this decision.

There seems to be nothing to stop the slow poisoning of our environment. The organic cultivation of vegetables, potatoes, root plants and berries is, however, still possible. By using seaweed products, tree ash, and compost, we can produce food that, for its part, helps to maintain our health. There is plenty of litreature on the subject. On private farms, we can practice natural cultivation on a larger scale and experiment with, for instance, slash-burning cultivation, if you can reach an agreement with the bureaucrats.

# Water as the source of life

Water has a very clearly observable bioenergy field. About twenty percent of water's bioenergy derives from very high, from the Buddhic level. Therefore it is more valuable than for example the bioenergy contained in a plant. The energy from the Buddhic level replaces the bioenergy in water that comes from lower planes, mainly the etheric plane.

Living water sustains the more sensitive and valuable mental and spiritual functions that make creatures individual. It could also be said that the continuous use of dead water makes people inconsiderate, impatient and aggressive, and there are unfortunately many examples of such behaviour all over the world. Water affects animals in the same way. They, however, have an innate ability to find living water.

If one gram of calcium nitrate is dissolved into one litre of water, the bioenergy of the water disappears in five hours. The same phenomenon takes place if ten milligrams of sulphur oxides are mixed with a litre of water. As a consequence of the polluting of water, the whole nature sooner or later will have to use dead water. The activities of water treatment plants do not increase bioenergy, but neither do they decrease it to any measurable degree. Securing the supply of living water is one of the most important things to do in order to sustain life on this planet.

# Living water is a rare treasure

In California, in the water of the river Merced in the national park of Yosemite, the vibration of water was 90 in 1984. Now it has reduced to ten. According to my understanding, this is due to the underground nuclear explosions in Nevada. Every nuclear explosion destroys the bioenergy of water at the radius of about one hundred kilometres. This, in turn, reduces vibration. This is senseless destruction of the necessary conditions for life.

The effect of living water is evident also in plants and in products made of plants. North of San Francisco is the Napa Valley wine region in which a Finnish sea captain established the first vineyard for over one hundred years ago. This winery is still functioning and there you can taste hundred-year-old vintage wines that are still in great condition and taste excellent. The bioenergy field around these wines is very wide and the level of vibration is close to the value of miracle healings, that is, 90. In this area, the grape wines have had extremely valuable living water that has almost the same qualities as the springs of Lourdes in France. Now, the quality of water has reduced and its level of vibration was, even at its best, only 20 near the end of 1987. Therefore, we can forget having durable vintage wines.

I was able to make a similar observation in Argentina in the Mendoza wine region. There was an immense, over five-million-litre tub over there that had 40-centimetre-thick concrete walls. That amount of wine was like a large, living creature. Its bioenergy field was as much as five metres! However, this force was a result of the large amount of wine. In a bottle, the bioenergy of that wine would have been only three centimetres. Instead, there were some extremely high-quality springs in the area and their water was transported far and wide, even a thousand kilometres away to Buenos Aires. The wine produced near these springs was precious and contained a lot of bioenergy. There, nature was still unspoiled.

It is told that nature healers used to collect the morning dew with sheets and by other means in order to use it as a solvent for medicines. Does the water of dew, therefore, have some special force? For plants, the difference between dew and other kinds of water seems to be considerable. The water rising up from the soil by the plant's roots has a bioenergy field of about seven centimetres. Dew squeezed from a sheet has a field of seventeen centimetres. The vibration of dew is about 40, and the water absorbed by the roots has a vibration of about 17. During the morning dew, the conditions of life improve temporarily. Dew sets in about every third night in the summer, and already this amount is important for plants. Moss and lichen themselves do not need a lot of water to thrive, but they mediate the life force they collect from dew below the surface.

Rain water does not seem to be as valuable as dew, although it belongs to the same system of water circulation. The bioenergy of the water vapour in a rain cloud is large and its vibration high. When the vapour condenses into rain drops, both values are reduced considerably and are comparable to water on the ground.

# Safe nutrition from nature

Our forest berries and mushrooms grow on a biological substrate that is taken care of by nature's own mechanism until it will die away due to changes in the soil caused by humans. For example, the decrease of the soil's acidity, its pH level, increases the solubility of poisonous cadmium and aluminum.

There are still plenty of natural products rich in aroma, vitamins and micronutrients in the North and they should be carefully used up. It seems that the adverse effects caused by the nuclear accident at Chernobyl are disappearing from them. Freezing, drying or salting are suitable preservation methods.

The fish in our lakes is a rich source of nourishment. Seaweed products and fish powder resemble each other in many respects. One may use fish in many forms. One of the most valuable fishes, as far as bioenergy is concerned, is the generally despised roach. It is, of course, true that a roach caught from warm and rich waters does not taste especially good, but roach can also be caught in large open waters, and there the quality of the fish is splendid. A simple way to preserve roach is to salt it a few days and then dry it in the sun or in a mild oven. Roach prepared this way will keep even in a box in the attic. Roach fillets, with their side bones removed, are excellent for salted fish. The rest of the fish can be cooked for broth. Dried roach can be used as such in a fish casserole or as soaked for any purpose. Other fish are equally useful, even ruffe.

Vegetarians refuse to eat any meat. I find this a respectable and sound opinion. I know, however, by experience that our present-day vegetables can be deceptive. When nature's great element supply does not always function in vegetables, we do not get enough nutrients from them. Our own element balance is shaking and our protection decreases.

Some vegetarians base their opinion on karmic principles according to which people should not slaughter and use for nourishment the meat of warm-blooded animals. It would make them responsible for destroying too high a life form. However, fish, which belongs to cold-blooded animals, is suitable nourishment for these vegetarians, too.

# The strengthening of protection

As important as the quality of food is for the maintenance of human health, it is not enough to guarantee the function of our own protective system. The protective system works much the same way for all living things, be they plants, animals or people. The restoration of the protection to a sufficient level is based on functioning connections between the physical, etheric, and astral planes.

As has been described above, necessary elements as well as bioenergy and information directing life functions move to and fro between these planes. When these channels are open, for example homeopathy can be applied.

# Homeopathy

Homeopathy as a medical method originated in a method developed by a physician from Leipzig, S. Hahnemann, in 1796. Its basic idea was to cure diseases by giving to the patients a highly diluted solution of a substance that would cause the symptoms of the disease in a healthy person. A homeopathic event is based on the fact that all necessary substances always exist in the patient, but they might be in a thinner form in the higher planes. One only needs an impulse, a piece of information or an order – whatever description one wants to use – in order to start the process. There are many ways to bring about the information. A person experienced in the use of spiritual abilities can simply ask that the healing process will start, and for example the insufficient reserve starts to fill up from the higher planes and will be replenished within a few days. Thus, the person's own protective system has better chances to work. I can show a few examples of the mediation of homeopathic information in nature.

In a mixed forest, there is versatile co-operation between different tree types. The physical co-operation takes place in the area of mycorrhizas or fungal roots, but information can be mediated in any plane from one tree to the other. Birch, for instance, may have a homeopathic task to mediate chlorophyll to the stunted pines of the area in the barren heaths of Lapland. The energy of one birch tree does not suffice to help very many neighbours. Therefore, the destruction of downy birches during group felling has caused irreparable damage.

I have examined with extrasensory methods the condition of Finnish pine saplings in relation to eight different factors. These factors are the physical or etheric condition of the above-ground parts of the tree, the physical and etheric condition of the root system, the physical and etheric condition of mycorrhizas, as well as the flow of information between different parts of the tree and the trees' ability for mutual co-operation.

In thirty-five years, all these factors have decreased. The condition of the etheric body of all parts of the tree as well as the flow of information between the parts have decreased catastrophically. The development has been similar with birch and spruce, although not as dramatic in all aspects. The physical and etheric condition of the root system and mycorrhizas of spruce is quite weak. The following homeopathic experiment shows that something can still be done.

A couple of grams of tree ash are put into a one-litre plastic bottle and this is filled up with spring or lake water. The bottle is closed tightly and buried, for example, in a forest of young pine trees at a depth of 10 to 20 centimetres. Then what? asks a proper technocrat. Slowly but surely, the condition of the saplings starts to improve; the more slowly this happens, the more the humus layer has suffered from acid rain. What happened? The burying of the bottle created the information that the forest needs help. The production of elements started in the higher planes for the building material of the trees' protective system. The process was seen as the strengthening of the etheric body of the trees. Nevertheless, we cannot save a forest that is dead or very sick however hard we try. What is most important, then, is to make sure that forests do not get into such a bad condition.

Another example is connected to the prevention of radiation damages. It has been described to me by an old, experienced gentleman. He had examined the milk produced by his neighbour's cows in the spring of 1986, just after the cows had been let out to pasture. He observed that in the milk collected to the milk tank, there was radiation caused by the Chernobyl disaster. He hung a little bottle in the tank above the milk level in which there was rowan berry and crowberry juice. After a few hours, the radiation had disappeared.

In natural conditions, plants with a weakened protective system can receive help from other plant species, as has been described above regarding the co-operation between trees. This co-operation can have many forms, and the knowledge of it may also help people to find help from nature to improve their health.

# The power of rice awn

Husked rice seems to contain about fifteen elements, but the husk itself has 45 to 50 elements and in the lemmas and awns enclosing the seed, about fifty. What is left over in the production of the white rice sold in our stores seems to be more valuable than the product itself. The lemmas, awns and husks should be carefully used for instance in agriculture. They could be used in a similar way as seaweed extract, provided that a method is developed with which the elements in these parts of a rice grain can be extracted. Such methods are already being developed, and the products made from rice awns have already contributed to the increased production of several plants.

According to my understanding, rice awn extract would have many positive effects for cultivated plants. It protects them from vermin and improves their frost resistance. It increases the crops by 7 to 40 percent, prevents desertification and improves the shelf life of products. Furthermore, it increases the vibration of the plants and commences homeopathic processes. I suppose that three kilos of dry rice awn extract would suffice to be sprayed over about one hectare.

According to my studies, a dose of half a gram of dry rice awn extract in one litre of water increases the water's bioenergy. A daily dose of one and a half grams for three weeks suffices to restore an animal of the size of a cow. The method is similar to the traditional use of ash in the treatment of mastitis in dairy cattle.

Rice awns seem to be a promising object for study, which could have much to offer for mankind in solving our nourishment and health problems.

# Positive viruses

Viruses are generally thought to be powerful pathogens. Surprisingly enough, nature also contains viruses with positive effects. In Finland, there are five plants that produce these positive viruses.

The curly birch is familiar to most Finns, although it is getting increasingly rare. The grain pattern of the curly birch indeed resembles the cell tissue caused by a viral disease. Its formation is still a mystery, but we know that the tendency to curling is inherited from one tree generation to the other. This is a positive virus that functions in the etheric plane.

The curling virus provides very effective protection against diseases. The curly birch is able, dependent on its size, to protect all trees in a 15 to 25 metre radius from diseases. Unfortunately, the good burning characteristics of the curly birch have attracted people to cut a large number of them for heating purposes around the turn of the century. In natural forests, about four percent of silver birches have been curly birches. Now, their number has decreased resulting in the increase of rot diseases in trees.

The most well-known rot disease may be the fusarium wilt of spruce for which no efficient help has been found. Some used prevention methods include clearfelling the area and replanting with another tree type, generally pine. But the pine saplings have, surprisingly, suffered from a similar disease; at their base, light fungal cell tissue has appeared, and the saplings often die. This disease is particularly known in the forests by the lake Saimaa, but it seems to spread out elsewhere, too.

The pathogen of the disease is the same as in spruce but it attacks pine for a different reason. In this case, juniper would protect pine, since it is nature's own therapist for trees and animals alike. The weakening of moss and the exhausting of the soil are equally important factors in the spreading of the disease as the lack of junipers. For pine, positive viruses have not been of help.

Aspen is known as a tree susceptible to decay, but it has not always been this way. Earlier, it has been protected by a positive virus originating from the curly birch. Nowadays, aspen is considered as a waste tree to be destroyed, but it has its task in sustaining of the health and spiritual balance of some northern mammals. Therefore, it should not be totally destroyed. In nature, everything depends on everything, and the whole cannot function if a part is removed. This is true for aspen, juniper, curly birch and downy birch alike.

Among the bearers of positive viruses are also tufted vetch, herb-Paris, lily of the valley, and Labrador tea. Tufted vetch and herb-Paris help their neighbouring plants in a diameter of about one metre. The lily of the valley has a positive effect on soil organisms.

The Labrador tea is worth mentioning separately. It helps its close neighbours with its positive viruses, but it also shares its energy, derived from earth rays, with other plants. The Labrador tea is also helpful for people if used wisely.

The Labrador tea is slightly poisonous, and is, therefore, not sold in pharmacies. It is used as a medical plant in the Soviet Union. In a kindergarten in the Soviet Union, seedlings of Labrador tea were spread on the floor to prevent whooping cough and other infectious diseases. It was found that bacteria in the indoor air had decreased to one-tenth. In Finland, the plant has been traditionally used for the treatment of rheumatism and asthma and as a dewormer.

A true Finnish power drink can be made of the leaves of Labrador tea, blueberry and bog bilberry. The leaves are dried and used like tea. The mixture contains 50 weight percent of blueberry leaves, 35 percent of bog bilberry leaves, and 15 percent of Labrador tea leaves. The drink acts homeopathically, and can therefore be drunk in a highly diluted mixture. About one gram of the mixed leaves in one litre of water is enough. A couple of cups per day is generally a suitable dose. The drink increases and maintains the human vibration level. However, I advise you to try for yourself if the drink is suitable for you.

# Honey – a versatile natural medicine

Honey contains a lot of bioenergy and its vibration is high. In addition, the selection of elements contained in it is almost complete and it has got a lot of vitamins and enzymes. There is hardly a better natural product, and many people owe their well-being to honey.

Doctors dealing with allergies take a critical stand to honey. It is true that honey may irritate the system of a person allergic to pollen, for instance. If you suffer from allergies, it is useful to consult your doctor before using honey as a medicine. It is, however, a good aid for many ailments.

Honey can be used both internally and externally. When used internally, it must not be boiled.

You can take a "honey bath" for example in a cooled-down sauna. Liquid honey is spread with hands all over the skin from top to toes. The honey is left there for about a half an hour before it is washed away.

At first, a half an hour's treatment in five consecutive days is sufficient. After a five days' break, the five days' treatment is repeated. After this, it is recommended to take a month's break, after which treatment may continue. I would like to highlight that these instructions are only suggestions and made for people who react easily.

Honey is a very homogeneous product; nature does not allow large deviations. One kind of honey is probably no better than another for treatment purposes.

# Finnish pit tar

Pine pitch has high vibration and a wide bioenergy field. Pitch is also the raw material for Finnish pit tar. An old tar pit with its surroundings is indeed a mysterious place. Even after a century, the level of vibration in a radius of five metres can be fifty. The vibration of an active tar pit is about seventy and it reaches, on an average, ten metres in all directions. The effect extends underground up to twenty metres deep.

There is also a slight increase in vibration in an area of old tar factories, which we have had over one hundred in our country. Industrial tar is not, however, comparable to pit tar. There are also differences in the qualities of pit tar. If the aims of tar burning are merely economical, the vibration of the product remains around fifty. If the goal is the improvement of the spiritual and physical health of people, the vibration rises to seventy.

Pit tar is a splendid substance in increasing your vibration level. It is taken only in small amounts. One drop a day mixed with for example alcohol is sufficient. Larger amounts may harm the kidneys. Tar also contains a lot of bioenergy. A glass of the best kind of pit tar has a field of up to 25 centimetres and poorer quality tars around ten centimetres. The field of industrial tar is only two centimetres.

# The power of pyramids

Many books have been written about the strange forces associated with pyramids. They explain among other things how milk that has been placed inside a small pyramidal construction will transform into yoghurt and grapes into raisins and a razor blade will get sharper. A person inside a bigger construction can feel the effect of therapeutic forces.

The workings of the pyramid power have not been described in detail. By an extrasensory study we can observe that bioenergy and vibration will increase, elemental reserves will be replenished and the chakras and the Buddhic channel will activate.

You can build a pyramid even at home from just about any material. Walls are not necessarily required; the most important thing is to measure the base and sides accurately. If you wish to build the walls from cloth or plastic, they must be taut. The proportions must be exact; there cannot be more than one percent of error. The following list gives examples of factors with which the correct proportions are obtained.

Positive forces act everywhere inside a pyramid. This has been verified for example by comparative plant cultivation experiments. The strongest effect is, however, in one point known as the king's chamber. The name refers to ancient pyramids that were used as tombs in which the embalmed bodies of the nobility were placed in the central chamber. It could be mentioned here that pyramids for example in Egypt were not originally built for tombs but as a kind of educational facilities. The king's chamber was used for those to be ordained as priests to sensitize themselves to receiving knowledge from the higher planes. Only after this tradition ceased, the pyramids were only used as tombs.

The home pyramid has to be so big that you can conveniently sit inside it. Supposedly, the effect of positive forces increases as the size of the pyramid increases. You should stay inside the pyramid at least 20 minutes daily, but the optimal time is as much as two hours.

I believe that the pyramid power is only a small example of the positive forces that people can have in their possession, if they, instead of destroying nature, would live as a part of it.

# On radiation damages and their prevention

I have mentioned above the effects of an exposure to earth rays or nuclear radiation on people and nature. Whatever the origin of radiation, it is always a flow of elementary particles. In this sense ground, nuclear, or electromagnetic radiation are comparable phenomena. We cannot observe nearly all types of radiation and their effects, not to mention their measurements. Sensitive people can sense also the types of radiation that are not acknowledged by physics.

Throughout history and in different parts of the world, people have suffered from different radiation hazards, such as the effects of earth rays to health. Perhaps these issues have not been called rays or radiation, but some means to prevent its effects have, however, been found. Part of these radiation hazards is purely our own fault, the products of our brave new technoculture. Among the worst of these hazards are the radiation types produced by enriched uranium and nuclear explosions, but even right next to our homes there may be small sources of electromagnetic radiation.

# The cosmic effect of nuclear energy

Great dangers are involved with the use of nuclear energy for the entire humankind. There is already some proof of this, but so far, scientists have no idea about the total effects of nuclear power. The use of nuclear power causes greatest harm in the etheric plane, in the world of particles smaller than quarks. A piece of enriched uranium, at minimum three grams in weight, continuously emits radiation that destroys the etheric body of nature. Concealing nuclear waste inside the rock bed is useless. No material obstacles will stop radiation that proceeds in the etheric plane. Every underground nuclear explosion is like a blaze in an open space in the etheric plane.

The effects of nuclear explosions reach everywhere, through our planet and even farther into space. Do we have a right to pollute space, too? Are we allowed to turn our own planet into a landfill for poisons, which, when it is destroyed, starts to disturb other parts of the universe, as well?

The space is full of life acting in all planes, although it is difficult to admit for someone studying space only with a telescope. Why would man be the cleverest creature in space?

Creatures that master materialization and dematerialization can move in space with a completely different set of conditions than we can even with our best devices. We have probably been observed already since the first nuclear explosions. Our harmful actions may lead to the possibility that we will be isolated from the rest of the space and will get back all the polluting particles that we have sent out. By 1987, our nuclear pollution had already reached Uranus, which is the third farthest planet in our solar system. We have already caused damages in the etheric plane of the planets situated closer to Earth. Therefore, it is no wonder if a power more capable than humans begins to worry about the changes taking place in this part of the solar system.

# The case of Chernobyl and nature's means to protect against radiation

Everywhere in the world people worry about the safety of nuclear power stations. The accident of Chernobyl caused a concrete danger for an area almost the size of Europe. At least five different types of harmful radiation were freed in the etheric plane, of which only one type has been studied regarding its consequences. Radiation in the etheric plane and the changes taking place over there will sooner or later be reflected in the physical plane.

The means of protection that I will mention here should not be generalized. They have been tried only in preventing the harmful effects of the radiation caused by the Chernobyl accident. These studies do not cover explosions such as nuclear bombs, the effects of which cover the whole world and our solar system, destroying all forms of life. The destructive effect is greatest in the etheric plane, in the world of particles smaller than quarks.

When the accident in the nuclear power plant of Chernobyl took place in April 1986, almost half of the etheric body of most people in Southern and Middle Finland was destroyed. Fortunately, they started to replenish immediately from the etheric reserves of the Earth. At least one half of the destructive radiation in the etheric plane proceeded into the higher planes. If all of it had remained in the etheric plane, the immediate effects for human health also in Finland could have been more dramatic. Immediately after the accident, it could be observed that the radiation that had moved into the higher planes would return to the etheric plane not later than in the autumn. This also happened. Quanta were materialized also in the physical plane; they were the so-called hot particles that were widely discussed. A small discharge took place already in August, even though the reactor was covered with concrete. In March 1987, a smaller discharge and in September a bigger one was to be expected. By the turn of the year, the situation in the etheric plane was almost normal.

In the chapter dealing with homeopathy, I told about a gentleman who in the spring of 1986 after the Chernobyl accident succeeded in removing radiation from milk with a mixture of crowberry and rowan berry juice. In order to show the efficiency of homeopathy with juices, he brought material polluted by radiation to a laboratory for examination. The measuring devices showed a certain amount in becquerels, and this amount did not decrease in a measurable degree after the gentleman had tried to remove the harmful radiation from the samples by his own methods. Was his invention therefore useless? No, because there are two components in radiation,; the flow of particles that can be observed with a Geiger counter and quantum radiation that cannot be observed with a Geiger counter and that takes place in the etheric level. The latter type of radiation is dangerous, and it is that type that can be removed with the homeopathic procedure.

A mixture of crowberry and rowan berry juice, having been diluted to two percent, acts as a homeopathic radiation remover. When one decilitre of this juice is placed in a pantry or fridge, the foodstuffs that are kept there will be cleansed in an hour. Again, you should remember that the purification will start only when you sincerely ask for it. The request must be presented, for example, by saying out loud: "I ask that this juice will purify the food from radiation".

You can also use sprouts to remove radiation. The high level of bioenergy in sprouts and seedlings efficiently purifies the surrounding nature. One plateful of wheat sprouts in a fridge is enough to remove the effects of fallouts like Chernobyl from foodstuffs. The protective effect lasts for about a week. The sprouts used for purification are not to be eaten. You can also press juice from the sprouts, which has the same purifying qualities. The liquid keeps in the fridge for about a week, but it is better to use it fresh. Sprouts also seem to remove radiation particles from the body when a couple of decilitres of this liquid is taken daily.

This homeopathic purification may seem strange, but even more remarkable is the fact that biologically cultivated products will purify by themselves. Without man's efficient actions our entire forest nature would still be one large biological farm. Now it is not healthy anymore, but is rather seeking help. Depending on the area, forest berries still have the ability to purify themselves of radiation damages. The ability of fungi to purify themselves is already lost. This does not, however, mean that our forest mushrooms, which are valuable nourishment, could not be used. If you suspect that mushrooms have been polluted for example because of nuclear fallout, they can be purified as described above.

The ability to purify themselves is very durable in biologically cultivated plants. It is not suppressed by the amounts of radiation that are comparable to those of the Chernobyl fallout. The products will purify themselves in no more than an hour. When the crop has been harvested, the purification process does not function anymore. You can get radiation readings with a Geiger counter from plants that purify themselves and from those that have been purified homeopathically, but it is not dangerous as was explained above.

# Electric current and cosmic harmony

Already in the antiquity, harmony was shown to be one of the general characteristics of nature. It is expressed in many areas. Disrupting harmony or the lack of it causes problems in nature, and the creation of harmony, on the other hand, has positive effects.

One area of research in our time deals with the effect of music on plants. The experiments of Dorothy Retallack from Denver showed that harmonic music, specifically, had a positive effect on plants' well-being and growth speed. Official science has responded to these results with indifference. Perhaps one reason why Retallack's results were invalidated is that plants that have been cultivated exclusively with strong fertilizers lose their sensitivity and are not suitable for musical experiments.

Harmony can be said to be a characteristic of all vibration and wave movement. For example in Finland, the frequency of the electric supply current is 50 hertz or fifty vibrations per second. In order to be harmonic, the frequency should be divisible by eight. The closest suitable figure would be 48.Those who have made observations with a dowsing rod know that in the vicinity of the home's electrical appliances, such as electric heaters, there is a radiation field about 40 centimetres wide from which sensitive people suffer. Based on an extrasensory examination, I believe that there would be no radiation hazards if the frequency were harmonic. So, could we not make such technical changes in the whole country that the frequency of the supply current would be 48 hertz? Machines built for a greater amount of hertz would work more slowly, but maybe it would not be a bad thing.

# Microwave oven and water bed – standard of living?

The movement of water molecules is accelerated in a microwave oven, and the heat produced by this affects evenly throughout the material. In cooking it is, of course, much faster than an old-fashioned oven, which starts to cook food from the surface. But what exactly happens to foods in that jet of microwaves?

According to my studies, pure protein does not suffer when heated in a microwave oven, but changes take place in carbohydrates. It appears as if methyl derivatives are generated in carbohydrates, and these substances, when taken repeatedly, will cause functional disorders in the liver and heart. Thus, it would be less dangerous to cook fish and meat in a microwave oven than food containing cereals. Usually, food contains components from both groups. I have estimated that two hundred consecutive meals prepared in a microwave oven could already cause a harmful amount of methyl derivatives to accumulate in the system. You should, therefore, use a microwave oven only occasionally so that your system would have time to purify. A couple of days weekly would seem to be a safe amount.

Another necessity in a home of a high standard of living is the water bed. Even though it has been created for comfort and also said to be a healthy place to sleep in, it does not seem to fit everybody. After a few months' use, ailments may appear in the limbs, there may be headaches, and a night's sleep is anything but refreshing. Some troubled users of the water bed have suspected that earth rays might cause their troubles, and the real cause has begun to be revealed in the process of studying earth rays.

A water-filled mattress is not harmful as such, but in most cases, it comes with a heating element that circles the entire area of the mattress. When the heating element is on and the current flows from the positive pole through the heating element to the negative pole, the bed is not dangerous. The current is usually disconnected by a thermostat when the mattress has reached the required temperature. If the plug is in the socket so that the wire coming from the switch of the thermostat is in the negative pole, the alternating current remains in the entire area of the heating element, from the positive pole of the socket to the thermostat. This will cause a particularly dangerous electromagnetic field, the magnitude of which, when measured with a dowsing rod, is 9.5 and with a pendulum, about 300 cycles. Such a strong field can, in time, cause even cancer.

How can the electric field in a water bed be removed? Very simply: by setting the plug in the right way. What then is the right way? The matter is easily solved with a rod or by an electrician. An inexperienced person should not open sockets or thermostats in order to study the wires. It would be reasonable if the seller of a water bed would explain the buyer how the heating element is connected, or if there was a special plug and socket that could only be connected the right way. The same problem may exist in other home appliances containing a lot of coils. A microwave oven is also one of them.

# Removing the TV screen's radiation

I mentioned earlier that sprouts and seedlings have a strong purifying effect in nature. It can be used both in removing the effects of nuclear pollution and in protecting against electromagnetic radiation.

The screens of televisions and computers reflect electromagnetic radiation to the viewer, which decreases the etheric body of the person. People working in front of screens often mention also physical symptoms, such as fatigue and headache. Sprouts and seedlings are able to bind this radiation to themselves. About one gram of sprouts with their seeds is placed into a plastic bag, which is fastened somewhere between the screen and the user. Depending on the temperature, this protection lasts for a day or two. Binding the radiation from a TV requires three grams of seedlings or a plateful of sprouts that are placed, for example, on a chair about a metre away from the viewer. Sprouts give protection for the entire field of vision, and their effect lasts for about 5 to 6 days when kept in the fridge in between.

# Longer shelf life with radiation?

The shelf life of some foodstuffs is nowadays improved by radiating them. It has been found out that gamma radiation kills the bacteria in foods. As only a slight overstatement one might say that the shelf life is improved with radiation so much that we cannot even say which year's harvest our imported vegetables belong to.

The activity of bacteria in decomposing living material is part of the great cycle in nature. A biologist once said that the end of life is really only the beginning. When an animal or a plant dies in nature, many kinds of life are immediately born in its remains, starting from the smallest bacteria. If the product has started to decay before it is preserved, its condition can be repaired with radiation.

I do not have a detailed answer to the question of how radiation affects living matter, but what is for sure is that bioenergy is lost completely. The function of cells seems to stop. In sight of the quality of nourishment this is already a big loss. If a healthy apple is represented by the number ten concerning its usefulness as food, then its number after radiation is one. The same is true for any product after radiation. Its shelf life is improved, but what is left is hardly worth preserving. Therefore, I take an absolutely negative stand towards the radiation of foodstuffs.

#  Protection against earth rays

Earth rays are not a new cultural phenomenon. People have always reacted to the presence of earth rays either by using it, like in finding water, or fleeing from it by choosing safer places for beds. People used to avoid mainly water vein radiation, but nowadays Finns suffer more often also from G radiation.

Earth rays should always be suspected when uncertain, continuing symptoms occur for which help is not easily found. I would assume that the true cause of their ailments for about half of the regular customers in health centers are problems with earth rays, and when this is the case, even the most patient doctor cannot find a cure. Typical symptoms include headache, joint pains, heart problems, allergy, elevated blood pressure, and asthma, not to mention many others symptoms. Then, the examination and treatment must be concentrated on the patient's environment.

When one's own capacity for protection is diminished due to a low element reserve, stress, amalgam poisoning, or other reasons, even a slight amount of earth rays causes symptoms. When a person is subjected to radiation for many years, its effect cumulates, and then even a slight field can cause severe symptoms such as blood clots, paralysis or cerebral hemorrhage.

When the water veins are sparsely located, their radiation can be avoided, for example, by changing the place of the bed. G lines, on the other hand, are so densely spaced, that a bed hardly fits in between the lines. In the modern small houses, there are usually not many alternatives. It requires expertise to localize the radiation lines, which is not always available. So, other means must be used instead.

A traditional and natural way to protect against earth rays is a straw mattress. When the straw mattress is at least ten centimetres thick when you lie on it, it provides protection against radiation. Also the sheep skins used in the past provided good protection against earth rays.

Nowadays, there are many kinds of earth ray removers available sold in Finland. Not one of them has been proven reliable. Most of them have more or less effect, preventing 30 to100 percent of the radiation, but the effect last no more than ten weeks. After that, they are only harmful. Among other things, they make the removal of radiation more difficult from that same place with a spiritual command. An unusable remover device that has been left in place can put the removed radiation back.

Recently, new kinds of protective devices have been developed that better correspond to nature's principles. In nature, solid matter usually consists of crystals. When examined with extrasensory means, crystals are found to be cosmic constructions that have the ability to affect the flows of energy surrounding them. Matter containing certain forms of crystals can apparently be used to build a protective device against radiation, which does not become tired. But such a device must be placed in its task with spiritual guidance, with a command, that includes even the name of the object. Experienced dowsers are able to do this part, as well.

In Finland, a mattress capable of radiation removal has also been developed. Thorough investigations and experiments show that its protective effect lasts for six years. Even after that the mattress works, if it is "purified" for a month with a certain method. Such a mattress gives protection only if you sleep on it; it is not sufficient to place it, for instance, under the bed. The radiation will indeed stop at the mattress but already sixty centimetres above it continues. This is a phenomenon of the four-dimensional world, which we can observe, but not explain. In a bunk bed, both beds should have such mattresses.

The normal electric pillow can be tried as a protection for earth rays, if you suspect your bed to be located in a radiation area. The plug of the electric pillow is put into the socket when the switch is at zero position. It is, again, to be noted, as with the water bed, that the heating element must be connected to the negative pole in the socket, not to the positive pole. When connected this way, the heating element of the electric pillow will bind earth rays in the diameter of about two and a half metres and functions as a radiation shield for a few months. During this time, the protective effect will gradually decrease. The electric pillow used as a shield against earth rays is not suitable for heating, for the quanta of earth rays bound in it can cause burns.

About one-fourth of Finns does not have any problems with earth rays even if they were exposed to it or if their health had deteriorated for other reasons. Especially among these people are those who think that all talk about earth rays is nonsense and laugh at the people who suffer from it. I do not know the reason for this "natural protection" and why it is only given to these people. Perhaps the arrogance of these lucky ones inspires others to act even more vigorously to protect people and nature.

# We are part of something greater

Above, I have discussed the connections between man and nature in light of many examples and practical experiences. All these observations seem to point out that man and the whole mankind is part of a great system, the magnitude and laws of which we can only guess. It would be a great mistake to think that we are the best and the cleverest part in this system. Notwithstanding, we can and do have an impact as a part of it all the time. It is clear that we will either suffer from or enjoy the results of our impact. The consequences are visible in the well-being of both individual people and the whole mankind. We do not know all the consequences of our damaging actions, because we do not see them directly or understand the relationship between cause and effect. But the same is also true with our positive deeds. Their effect can be more powerful and important than we can guess. Therefore, I do not see a reason for hopelessness either for an individual or the humankind. However, it is high time to wake up and see the things we have managed to bring about. I will only mention a few more recent ones.

# AIDS was only a beginning

Even the ancient seers understood that parasites and vermin plaguing people were not necessarily the work of the Lord but a result of people living in miserable conditions. Over a long period of time, the circumstances have become more suitable for different kinds of affliction that we have, in a way, invited.

Most destructive among our works are viruses. We have "ordered" them to even destroy a great part of the humankind. A brilliant English astronomer Fred Hoyle claimed that viruses are formed in space. Super-sensitive knowledge supports this claim. Nowadays, the base for the formation of viruses is created by dead matter pushed into the atmosphere by industry - matter that does not have the etheric part of existence. A virus uses its host's etheric body to live.

In the spring of 1987, I was allowed to receive information concerning a threatening virus of our time. That message was as follows: In addition to the HI virus causing AIDS, two other viruses are currently being formed, which I call the B and C viruses. If the danger of these three viruses is placed on a scale from zero to ten, the B virus represents the value of ten. The C virus has the value of 7.5 and the HI virus we know today has the value of 6.5. So, AIDS has been defeated, but the winner is not human, but the stem of virus that is even stronger than the one before.

In the 1950's, people were certain of the claim that the problem of cancer will be solved within the next five years. However, a cure has not been found. Even now people believe that diseases caused by viruses will be defeated before long by vaccinations and antidotes. In their search, people already start to be on the brink of hopelessness. But can we escape our works with vaccines? Should we not humble ourselves as individuals and as the humankind to ask the Great Master for help?

# The demon of narcotics – a mental virus

The problems with narcotics and alcohol are comparable with viruses as the work of humanity. They are afflictions that take a hold of the higher parts of a human being.

When a person likes a thing or an experience, they hope to come across it again. When the event is repeated a few times, a thought creature is embodied that I call a demon. It gets its life force from human hopes and permanently fixed thoughts. When one thought creature is vital enough, another one begins to form alongside it. Hundreds of demons can surround incurable alcoholics, demons that have taken hold on their astral aura. These demons all direct their masters' actions and get their nourishment from their liquor-thirsty thoughts. If these thoughts would cease, the demons would have to go. They do not easily agree to this, which is why it is so difficult to give up drinking.

Is there any spiritual help that can be given to an alcoholic? It is possible, but only if the person in question has decided to give up alcohol. In order to become convinced of this, he has to join for example the AA. After joining, he must make the decision concerning his future a second time. Only then has he crossed the line into the possibility of a new life. When he makes his first decision about joining the AA, the demons try in every way to make this decision empty. The second decision to remain as a member means a death sentence to the demons. During the following few weeks, they will disappear. At this stage, outside help is vital.

The life forces of those having succumbed to alcoholism have usually collapsed. The bioenergy field is only a few centimetres, vibration has fallen to one and other values are equally low. After the decision to get better, the values start to increase surprisingly fast so that the normal level is reached already in a day. It is difficult for demons to be in high vibration, and they no longer receive nourishment from the thoughts of their victim.

The mediators of the new life of the alcoholic are fellows having gone through the same. The person who has received help should remember how difficult the fight was that he was helped through, and respect his decision to stay sober.

Many spiritual healers bluntly refuse to treat an alcoholic, even though it is possible to cast out demons with a spiritual command. This refusal can be understood in light of the fact that demons, as they flee, often attack the person who is casting them out, and it may take weeks before this burden passes. The AA, which is based on co-operation, has a therapeutic atmosphere and high vibration, so this danger is not too great. Despised alcoholics are able, therefore, in their AA meetings to create a circle of force whose equal is not easily found.

Drug problems could be treated the same way as alcoholism in the AA. Unfortunately, the hold of demons is much stronger with narcotics and the victims cannot be taken into care voluntarily. In involuntary treatment, spiritual powers are not available. However, at least in larger cities, there should be places of treatment where the victims of narcotics could go voluntarily to join their companions in misfortune. At least for some, this could open up an escape.

Deaths from narcotics also reveal something about the all-encompassing force of life. For instance, the first dose of LSD does not seem to affect the bioenergy field in any way. The second dose already causes a slight decrease, and at the third time the field of bioenergy is reduced by one-third. Already that starts to be fatal. The effects are both spiritual and physical. In every third death from narcotics, the immediate cause of death is not the narcotic substance itself but the person's wish to stay in that more pleasant state of existence which he has reached in the astral plane. A person with poor health can, by his own will, easily end his physical life and continue to exist in the astral plane, into which he has moved when "high". He does not, however, make this decision knowingly and its significance may become clear to him only much later. The physical death resulting from will power or the lack of it is a well-known phenomenon in other situations, as well. For example, the death of a spouse can for an elderly person mean the loss of the reason for living and lead to their passing away without any other observable cause.

# Man mastering life – a hired womb

A very special business has started in the United States. Healthy women hire their womb for a fertilized egg belonging to another. Usually the customers are married couples suffering from infertility. A great deal of uproar was raised up by a case in which the mother acting as an "artificial incubator" did not want to give away the child she had given birth to, to the male customer. The court, however, obligated her to follow the original contract. But did the jurors and judges know what they were deciding about?

When a fertilized egg is forced to grow in conditions that it has nothing to do with, the creation of new life has three parties. This is a bad thing. With organ transfers, reactions of rejection and other problems have been observed that are caused by this exact reason. The human embryo is, however, so weak that it adapts to the foreign environment, such as to a blood group that is not optimal from its point of view.

When a body that is foreign in its gene structure constructs the baby, the question arises automatically, which origin is the strongest in the child, or whose baby it is after all, biologically. The answer is very surprising. The original mother and father, or the donor of the egg and the man who fertilized it, are present in the child as little as ten percent, all the rest is derived from the bearer. From this fact alone, we could conclude who has "the right" for the child.

From the scientific point of view, this observation is very problematic. Can the genes derived from the original parents really change into others during pregnancy? It seems to be possible if the outside influence is strong enough. The outside influence is the mother who hired out her womb. This statement has nothing to do with so-called Lysenkoism.

It is, however, most important for the newborn baby, both physically and spiritually, to be as long as possible in the vicinity of his bearer, even in the same bioenergy field, and have breast milk as long as it is available.

# A spark of hope has kindled

When you take a deeper look, you almost always have to admit that the future of humanity and the whole creation is in danger. We must, however, remember that little drops of water make a mighty ocean. Therefore, it is possible that even people's concern about the future already suffices to gradually turn the direction. There are already signs of it.

In the figure below, I present my estimation about the burden placed on the nature of our globe towards the end of our century. The vertical axis describes the magnitude of the burden so that 100 percent represents the final breakdown of nature's resistance. In the horizontal axis, which represents time, the scale has been enlarged towards the end.

The burden on nature has grown evenly from the beginning of the century and it has also left permanent scars. A steep rise took place during the first half of the 1960's. At that time, environmental questions did not yet receive wider attention, but new environmental burdens were produced at an accelerated speed.

In the 1970's, the growth continued so that at the end of the decade, the threatening level of 75 percent was reached. At this speed, final destruction would not be far away. Therefore, it is especially delightful to note that the curve has started to decline after 1982. Suddenly, the burden destroying life started to decrease.

The decline of the total burden has continued slowly until 1988 after which a steeper fall is expected. So, there is a spark of hope in sight. But can the direction of the development be changed permanently? It certainly does not happen easily. People who are used to pursuing economic gains need to be awakened from their consumer dreams. The frequent ecological catastrophes and those in sight should suffice to wake us up. The old saying that as we grow old, we learn to walk slowly if nothing else, is now timely. The speed of our whole system must be slowed down. The faster we move, the lower the plane we end up where we have to learn how to walk again after we have stumbled.

Humanity is caught up in a frenzy of wasting natural resources, as if there was a compulsion to destroy everything within a few generations. In the middle of the destruction, we comfort ourselves with the thought that coming, cleverer generations will invent new sources of energy and new ways of production that they can use. Surely, there will be no lack of inventions, because the methods in farming and gene technology seem to promise almost anything. But people have to give up most of their dreams and admit that only the methods that adapt to nature's own system are possible.

A professor of forestry declared already in the 1960's that we must get rid of nature's constraints. He represented the hard viewpoint that still threatens defenseless nature. There are many strong thinkers like him in this world. They are still considered as heroes of the new brave era, but soon their glow will die out.

When three-fourths of nature's tolerance has been used, it has caused great and small destruction in different parts of the world. Although the ultimate destruction could be avoided, we have a long and painful period of recovery ahead of us. This message is bleak but not hopeless. Also the fact that the global vibration level is increasing gives us hope. Since 1940, it has decreased continuously and approached the zero level that forecasts death. Now, the level has started to increase slightly and the climb may continue at least toward the end of the century. What has caused the change in the load and vibration curves?

The reasons for the recovery are totally of spiritual quality. Individual people, philosophical and religious associations and environmental protection organizations have activated to act for nature. There are even organizations that have their members concentrating to pray for nature at the same time in different parts of the world. The joint will of millions of people is a thought force that is manifested as a slight increase in vibration, among other things. What a blessed force it is indeed!

The Finnish poet Eino Leino describes the harmony between nature and man in his poem The Story of the Great Oak. I cite one verse of it. Not because I would consider a total dependence on nature as an ideal way of life for us, but because it is, even today, the safest way to live from nature's point of view.

As a child of nature the nation grew,

slept to the sound of the pines.

It dreamed of its new happiness,

woke up with the lapping of waves;

toiling in soils, cutting down trees

drinking in the power from life's teats,

sleeping on the breasts of the forest goddess

hearing the tones of nature's secrets.
