Several years ago, a lost traveler appeared at my country
door in the foothills outside of Santa Fe. After some initial
difficulty, I was able to help her reach her destination. Several
nights later she returned to share some information as a "gift"
for my patience and aid earlier in the week. She handed me a small
cylindrical object and announced its purpose was to normalize
and re-energize water. The device, manufactured in Austria, was
roughly the same size as a can of soda. Although mildly amused,
having researched numerous technologies over twenty-five years
that never lived up to their claims, my still naturally curious
mind opened to challenge.
As I held the object in my hand, the enviable weight steered
my senses to another level of activity within. My blood began
to race, my respiration increased, a heat began to rise in my
system that was always an indication that I was face to face with
something important. I poured some of my tap water (from a pure
source, 350 feet deep well) through the unit and drank it. Indeed
the water tasted different -- cleaner, wetter, stronger.
Subsequent testing revealed that the physical structure
of the water (not the chemical structure) had been changed. My
curiosity was soundly aroused, and I began to gather as much information
as I could about the technology, called "Grander Living Water."
At the time there was very little literature available about the
Grander products. I contacted the U.S. distribution center (now
defunct) and asked for a list of everyone in North America who
was using the technology.
Eventually I compiled several notebooks of anecdotes from
people using the products. I learned that people and animals always
preferred Grander treated water over any other, while plants that
consumed it became greener and healthier. Waste water from homes
and farms with Grander units was cleaner and decomposed more rapidly.
Engines with Grander units installed ran more efficiently and
emitted fewer pollutants. Incredible as it sounds, these units
consume no power and add no chemicals to the fluids that pass
through them.
Recently, a European best-selling book appeared, entitled
On the Track of Water's Secrets. It explains the history of Living
Water technology. Additional information is available in a booklet
entitled UVO: Living Water by the Grander Technology (UVO being
the European marketing agent for the Grander products).
What then is the story on this "Living Water"
technology, and what are its implications for our environment?
Here is a brief outline, condensed from the above mentioned sources:
It has long been known to students of nature that water
is more than the approximate 2/3 of our human makeup, the 90%
of some animals and plants, and the 70% of the earth itself. It
is the mediator between the etheric and physical worlds. It is
a tremendous communicator. It picks up information through vibration
from everything it comes in contact with. It is further supplied
with information from our solar system. When "healthy,"
water has the capacity to self-cleanse, to supply energy for living
things, and to assist in removing waste products.
What has happened to this wonderful life-affirming element
that Lao-tsu in the 6th Century BC called "the emblem of
supreme virtue"? Simply put, we have desecrated it. We have
forced it out of the ground before it is "ripe." We
have confined it under pressure through miles of pipe. We have
exposed it to staggering environmental pollution, and then added
grand quantities of harmful substances to "clean it up"
for human consumption again. Although we may achieve chemically
"pure" water, the vibrational frequency of the contaminants
and discordant activities that the water has been put through
remain in the water and negatively influence all living functions!
It was to this very problem that the inventor, Johann Grander,
turned his attention over a decade ago. It is his honor to have
found a way to "restore the information water needs to reconstruct
all the energy it has lost," to replace the accumulated negative
vibrations with a higher, life-affirming vibration. The "energized"
fluid that he put in his water units, (as well as in his pendants
for wearing, penergizers for stirring fluids, and his rods for
wells, manure lagoons, ponds, and lakes), transmits vibrational
information (not energy itself) to the water around it. The implications
and applications are profound. The Living Water units have not
diminished in effectiveness over the past ten years. They are
used throughout Europe and more recently in the U.S. and Canada.
They are used in residential, commercial, and natural settings
with intriguing results.
My own passionate interest is in the revitalization of
lakes and ponds. This past July I had the opportunity to experiment
with a one-two acre pond in northern Indiana. The fish had all
died (despite restocking). The pH was 10.8. The pond was filled
with three main types of algae, which had suffocated it. The pond
had been subjected to years of agricultural run-off, and sediment
had accumulated to the depth of three feet or more. It was my
estimation after installing the rods and a commercial-sized unit
through which we pumped the pond water 24 hours a day, that it
would take a month or so to see any improvement. And yet, within
hours of beginning the project, we began to see results. Great
swirls of white foam began to form in the center of the pond.
Testing indicated that the pH was already dropping.
Five days later I received a call notifying me that the
pond was clear to the bottom! The pH was 7.6, the algae had disintegrated
and was all gone except for a small ring around the edge of the
pond, and people were swimming in it! Remember that absolutely
no chemicals were used to achieve this result.
I have since seen other similar responses with Grander
Living Water technology, and am at present negotiating with
several municipalities throughout the U.S. to conduct formal research
scenarios in cooperation with the Department of Natural Resources.
The sky is the limit in the potential of this technology, and
the application is just in its infancy.

It is perhaps indicative of the plight of modern science
that the most obvious phenomena in nature remain unexplained.
For example: it is well known that clouds are composed of water
vapor and dust particles. Both of these substances are heavier
than air. By what means do clouds remain suspended high above
the ground?
What causes the sap in trees to rise hundreds of feet vertically,
despite the influence of gravity? Why does water flow freely from
mountain springs, when in the valleys we must dig wells and force
it out with pumps?
What causes blood, a very thick and viscous fluid, to flow
through miles of tiny capillaries in our bodies? By action of
the heart? Not likely. The pressure required to force such flow
would burst our delicate tissues. In fact, circulation is observed
in embryos even before the heart is formed.
Evidence suggests there is an important operating principle
of nature which has been virtually overlooked. It is a principle
at work in all of nature's creatures, but sadly absent in laboratories
made sterile by materialistic science.
Eighty years ago a forestry engineer in Bavaria applied
principles he learned from nature in the design of simple machines.
His name was Victor Schauberger (see page 19). More recently,
an Austrian by the name of Johann Grander has carried on the work.
Through his dedicated efforts, an important new water treatment
technology has spread throughout Europe, Asia, Australia, and
America, and is poised to stem the tide of ecological death at
the hands of industry and commerce.
This is the story of Living Water...
Victor Schauberger was employed by a financially troubled
landowner in Bavaria at the end of World War I. By studying the
use of vortexes in nature, he devised a new type of log flume
that reduced the cost of transporting heavy timber by 90%. His
system was able to convey beech and oak logs which, being heavier
than water, had previously required hauling by wagon.
Over the years 1929 to 1958, he secured eight Austrian
patents on related discoveries. He referred to the motive principle
behind his work as "implosion." Today, this little-understood
phenomenon is called "cavitation."

Grander Water Revitalization Units are available in multiple sizes for a wide variety of applications. They consume no power or chemicals and seem to last indefinitely. A portable stirring unit called the "Penergizer" costs about $125.
