considered the gesture was important. Recently I reassigned the copyright and
today it is available from: The Holistic Intuition Society http://www.in2it.ca/Books.htm
Her work was so respected that she was given a grant by the authorities to carry
her studies further. Ultimately Bachler dowsed 11,000 cases in 3,000 homes in
14 different countries, and has made a phenomenal contribution to this field of
study. Her files show case after case of Earth radiation, particularly affecting the
sleeping place, making people ill with such diverse conditions as arthritis, cancer,
allergies and mental illness.
The use of sophisticated electronic detector equipment is just emerging as
an alternative to traditional dowsing skills. It is possible to show that body
resistance and other biological parameters change when individuals are sited
over hot spots. Professor Hugo Hubacek has invented a machine for measuring
electrical changes in the body and correlation with the findings of dowsers is
remarkably high – almost 100 per cent.
Geopathic stress crossings or “grids”
In addition to geophysical influences such as streams and rock strata, there
have been defined a number of grids detectable only to dowsers. The Hartmann
Net (described by Dr Ernst Hartmann) consists of a grid of north-to-south lines,
crossed by east-to-west, alternatively charged positive and negative. The grid
lines are 2-3 m (6-9ft) apart and some 15-20 cm (6-8in).
The Curry Grid (described by Manfred Curry) runs diagonal to the Hartmann
Net at approximately 3 ½ m (7ft) apart and 80cm (2 ½ ft) wide, but unlike the
Hartmann Net it doesn’t vary. There are the same positive and negative bands
and, where positive intersects with positive or negative with negative, these are
particularly dangerous spots known as nodes. If these fall over underground
water, they are said to be even more dangerous.
Plants And Animals
Plants and animals are sensitive to geopathic stress: stunted trees with peculiar
growths are often shown to be growing over areas of geopathic stress. It
is as if their branches are trying to get out of the way of the harmful ‘rays’.
Horses, dogs, cows, sheep, pigs and mice would not willingly settle over areas
