very much. It is quite a comic situation: how can you, who have
only been dowsing for a few weeks, not only find the lines but
even find them without rods, when they have been working on
the subject for years and wouldn't have a clue how to do that?
Really, it is because your dowsing comes from a systematic
training of perception and not from an isolated skill.
With a strong awareness in the eye, it is actually not very
difficult to sense the lines with your hands, without rods.
Start walking down the room slowly, your hands in front of you.
As before, keep a tight awareness of the vibration, both in the eye
and below the navel. Breathe with the throat friction, to amplify
the vibration. Tune into the lines from your belly.
When you walk across a line your hands will feel a slight
resistance, as if you were meeting something thicker and denser
than just the air of the room. Sometimes there is also a slight
vibration added to your hands when you ‘touch’ a line. Walk back
one step and come to the line slowly again. Dwell on the feeling,
learn to recognize it. In fact, it is more appropriate to use the
word ‘wall’ rather than line, for what you feel is actually like a
wall of vibration, a bit like a wall of etheric smoke.
As always, there is one secret: practise, practise, practise! If you do
so you will be able to enter a room and immediately tell where the
lines are and how noxious they are. You won't need any rods. You
won't even need to walk across the room.
12.13 Seeing the lines
Seeing the lines, or rather the walls of smoky energy, is not much
more difficult than seeing halos of light around people. The
techniques to use are exactly the same as those we have described
in the chapters on seeing.
Implement the triple process of vision:
- Motionlessness and focus in the eye, blinking as little as possible.
- Don't look for the lines, become aware of the fact of seeing, or
seeingness. If seeingness is out of reach, just feel the image in
front of you instead of looking at it. - Try to feel from your heart, and in this case from your belly
at the same time. If you find it difficult to be in the eye, the
heart and the belly at the same time, just keep the eye and the
belly. Look from the belly, through the eye. If this too is
difficult, focus mainly on the belly centre, one inch below the
navel.
