The dowsing rod by itself does not have any power. It works with select few people. I am one such person who has been using the dowsing rod. This is used for water divining. I also use coconut for water divining.
The dowsing rod also has a very interesting use. With this I am in a position to identify the positive and negative energies at a place or of an object. I have also observed that the dowsing rod when placed before the photos of living persons and that of dead persons react differently. Further, when the photo of dead person is placed facing south, the dowsing rod indicates positive energy; while in all other directions, it shows negative energy. Similarly, photos of Indian gods and goddesses show positive energy, specially if placed facing east or west. Also, lamps used in pooja rooms show positive energy, if placed in east-west direction and negative energy if place in the north-south direction. Further, the writings in Devanagiri lipi(scripts)- Sanskrit, Hindi etc.show positive energy, whereas, the writings in English show negative energy. Same is true while speaking Sanskrit and English. Every individual has an aura of positive energy around him/her. The radius of this circle differ from individual to individual. This aura decreases when he/she talks in English and increases while chanting Sanskrit shlokas.
The word “Aum” in Sanskrit scripted on any surface shows positive energy. It also helps to reduce the negative energy at any place. Chanting of “Aum” too has a very positive impact on the positive energy level.
These have been demonstrated by me at various places. I can show this to any one.
