PREFACE
My Message from Water

I ts been ten years since I developed the technique of frozen-water crystal photography. What began with one large refrigerator and one researcher has now become three refrigerators and six researchers, and the number of specimens has been increasing dramatically. More than anything, were now able to obtain very stable results through our photographic techniques, and I believe that the quality of our work has shown great improvement.

After the publication of The Message from Water in June 1999, its popularity spread all over the world. It has been published in 23 languages as of January 2005, and thus has been able to attract keen interest from people around the globe. I now find myself receiving invitations to lecture worldwideas of this printing Ive been to 150 cities in 30 countries.

How did this happen? At the beginning I was so overwhelmed that I wasnt able to consider the reasons. But later, having met and talked to so many people from various places and after reading so many e-mails and letters, I now know the answer. And the more I understand, the more I realize the importance of my role. I often quiver with responsibility and burn with a sense of mission.

Here are some of the most fundamental reasons for the popularity of this work, although this list is by no means exhaustive. Ive compiled the following from all the feedback Ive received from the people who have attended my lectures or corresponded with me:

The common language that the people of the world have been seeking is found in water crystals.

Water has the ability to speak whats on our mind for us and awaken our subconscious memory.

We can discern the origin, meaning, and importance of language through water crystals.

These experiments help us understand why music heals people; and show us that paintings, sculptures, and other works of art truly have deeper meanings.

This work helps us understand why alternative therapies exist and why theyre effective.

What we see in the crystal formations reinforces the fact that water is indispensable to the phenomenon of life.

The Message from Water helps us understand religion and prayer, and it gives us a deeper sense of the relationship between humanity and the cosmos.

Water crystals provide a clue to comprehending the nature of energy and what dimensionality is.

Thanks to this work, were one step closer to understanding the eternal theme of humanity that asks where we come from, why were here, and what happens when we die.

In addition, Ive heard comments from people that The Message from Water truly applies to everyday situations. These folks come from all walks of life and represent just about every industry: training organizations, agriculture, medicine, environmental consultation, food industries, clothing manufacturing, and so on.

About two years ago, my first grandchild was born. Naturally, hes an endearing and lovable child. (Pardon me for using my private pictures of him throughout the book!) One day I thought, What state will the world be in when the children my grandsons age become adults? I realized that we just cant leave things the way they are now. Thus, for the release of this third volume in my series The Message from Water, I decided to choose as a theme what the world most urgently needs at present: prayer. This is, of course, whats needed to eliminate war and terrorism throughout the world.

When I thought about it more deeply, I realized that prayer is most effectively sent when each person raises their energy of love by imagining a scene in which the people of the world are living in peace. Ive learned this through the process of asking water many questions.
