These links show interesting articles about meditating and measuring brain waves. But I don't see anything about dowsing in any of these links. Now, when we look at dowsing, it appears that the dowser is attempting to locate things hidden under the ground while holding some appliance in his hands such as rods or a pendulum. We can infer that he is sensing something with the help of the appliance that is interpreted by his brain to locate the hidden item that he is looking for. The apparent mechanisms at work are the existing geophysical fields, the appliance that the dowser holds, the dowser's nervous system, and the dowser's brain. If a dowser is able to accurately locate a hidden object, then it is presumed this is accomplished by the combination of the dowsing appliance and the nervous system and brain of the dowser. Can it work? We have seen evidence that many lower animals become very upset before a major earthquake or other geophysical catastrophy. Many of these animals also are able to navigate and sense impending danger in ways that humans cannot. How do they do it? Scientists have discovered that many lower animals are equipped with sensors at the ends of their nervous systems that are able to sense geophysical and chemical / electrical anomalies that humans are insensitive to. It appears that the basic method of wiring for the nervous system is similar, but the sensing ability is different depending on the species and also the variation within the species. Could this explain why only a few people claim to be successful with dowsing when compared to the whole earth's population? Now, we know that within the human species, some people are better at any of the 5 commonly known senses. For example, blind people often have extra keen hearing. But there are also some percentages of people who have excellent hearing or eyesight because they were genetically endowed with it. So we see that within the human species, people can have improved senses because of a genetic gift, or because of training to become more attuned to a particular sense. We also know that genetics can prevent some people from ever developing some senses, such as a person born colorblind will never be able to see certain colors. So if some people claim to have a dowsing gift, we cannot simply say they do not have this gift. We must first observe them recovering the hidden objects they claim to be able to locate in a double blind test, and then we can determine whether they have dowsing ability or not. Having said all that, I am wondering... I figure the nervous system and brain of a space alien may not be constructed exactly the same as the human species, and maybe dowsing is easy for them. Has anybody read any reports on the ability of space aliens to dowse? Best wishes, J_P
