But try to empirically explain the dowsing phenomenon and you11 be in a quandary. "Ask a hundred dowsers how it works and you'll get a hundred different answers," Harold said. "We all know it works, yet we can't convince scientists. Compare a dowser's log against a water driller's log, and you'll find the dowsers success rate at locating water to be much higher -around seventy-five percent accurate."
Dowsing theory holds that dowsers tend to locate what are called sources of "primary" or "new" water, manufactured under extreme conditions of temperature and pressure deep within the earth. Rising to the surface in columns or domes which then follow the path of least resistance, forming into underground streams and springs or feeding into deep water tables, primary water sources are prolific. For this reason, dowsed wells rarely go dry. Primary water theory directly conflicts with mainstream hydrology which suggests that the hydrologic cycle is a closed loop of evaporation, transpiration and precipitation.
In other words hydrologists claim there is no new water.
Scientists have resisted researching dowsing, perhaps because it moves beyond hard science into metaphysics, an area inhabited by philosophers and spiritual practitioners. But reams of documentation exists which reveal that dowsers have managed to locate prolific sources of water where hydrologists have utterly failed.
Harold cited one example. "Along the coast of Peru, seawater gets into the water table and you just can't drill good fresh water wells. We have a member of ASD (the American Society of Dowsers) who goes down there periodically and finds water all the time at great depths. There's a large brewery there which had a problem with salt water in their well but now all the water that brewery uses comes out of a dowsed well free of salt water.
Hydrologists say it's impossible, that you can't find salt free water there, but the dowser just does it."
Another story of dowsing prowess that Harold likes to share involved helping a small city to dowse a new well after three of the city's wells had run dry. A local well driller had failed to locate a new source of water so out of desperation the mayor called Harold on the advice of a city council member. As they drove around, the mayor skeptically asked Harold to locate the well on city property. He also mentioned that they had spent most of the city's funds on the well driller's failed attempts so he wanted to find a shallow well flowing at least 10 gallons per minute. "After walking around a bit, the dowsing rod went down and indicated a big wide stream," Harold said. So I said if he'd dig a hundred feet, he'd hit at least 25 gallons per minute. I even had the mayor dowsing with the sticks and the sticks would go down right over the exact same area. But he still didn't totally trust me, so he had a driller come out and dig a pilot hole, not even a well but an exploratory test. At ninety feet they hit a stream that would provide 50 gallons per minute. That's when he had the big driller come."
"Dowsing is more commonplace than people realize," Harold said. "Go to any construction site, look inside the backhoe and more often than not you'll find a couple of bent coat hangers the workers used to find buried cables or gas lines they don't want to dig up. They've been taught the method but they're not aware they are dowsing."
Dowsers are also known to "divert" underground streams. Records indicate that two methods are utilized; the first involves locating the underground stream and pounding a metal stake into the ground above it with the "intent" of diverting it either away from a site or perhaps into a dry well in need of recharging. Another method is to project a "thought form" into the underground spring, diverting it into the desired area.
Harold has experimented with water diversion through the years, beginning with his own well. "The filter on my well used to get so plugged up with minerals that I was forced to change it every week. So one day I decided to dowse it. I mentally placed a thought form, an ‘energy pipe', all the way down the dome which feeds into my well to keep the iron and sulfur from getting into it. Now I rarely have to clean the filter. The minerals are gone." With that, Harold is evolving a new philosophy and approach to dowsing whereby he, and others who are interested, will work with "detox dowsing". Harold feels clear that through the use of pure intent projected through dowsing, he will be able to remove pollutants from vast areas of water and land.
