From the Preface:
Michael Gorbachev and the Niznesvirsky Reserve
The Russian Niznesvirsky Reserve is on the banks of lake Ladago, two hundred kilometers north of St. Petersburg. It is a magnificent nature reserve with vast forests, alternated by lakes and moors. Elks and wolves can be found there, as well as bears according to the Russians, but I myself have never seen the latter. I did see huge swarms of migratory birds which use the reserve as a stopover on their long journeys from way up North to the warm South.
My first visit was in June 1994, in the company of some colleagues of the German Institute for Resonance Therapy, at that time my employer. Our visit had a special reason. We were invited by Michael Gorbachev. By way of his foundation he had let us know that he wanted to have a large Russian nature reserve treated energetically. He let us pick which one.
...In the end we chose the Niznesvirsky Reserve, where accessibility was good. It had problems with the vitality and the organization; besides, we had the feeling that there were a number of earth-acupuncture points there, which were important, not only for the reserve, but for everything for miles around. That last reason appealed to Gorbachev too....
Gut Feeling
Life energy and information combine to a form force. This form force is a constructing, center-seeking force that enhances the health and vitality of plants, trees, animals and all other organisms. You can see it as the feminine yin force. It is possible to explain how this force works and how to send energy through a map. Most of it can even be explained with the help of recent scientific discoveries and theories. The most important thing is that everybody can learn to do this himself.
It is interesting that many people—and often those at top level—don’t need an explanation, declaration or book to come to a decision. Apart from the fact that they usually don’t have the time to read books, “half a word” is enough for them. Gorbachev was like this. People like him trust their feelings and their intuition. They feel, they know that something is right and okay. A politician calls that instinct. A businessman calls it gut feeling....
Everyone Fought Everyone Else
During the first visit, the reserve and the staff gave a desolate impression.... Walking through the dense fir trees we literally and figuratively stumbled onto a battle field: we saw old foxholes and collapsed trenches everywhere, now and then covered in rusty barbed wire. In and among the trees were parts of what had once been a lorry or a tank....
When I wanted to take a look at one of the trenches [Vasili] said: “Go ahead, don’t be afraid. The landmines have already been taken care of by the elks and the wolves.” He and the other Russians remained at a distance when I inspected this scar of the war.
Later they told me that they didn’t dare to go near the trenches because of the haunted atmosphere. During lunch we heard that there were two old monasteries in the northern part of the reserve. They had been built a few hundred years before in honor of Alexander Svirsky. This special man had lived there in a small cabin, until his death. Many people had turned to him for inspiration and cure for their ailments. Healing powers were imputed to the well next to his cabin. The Vatican canonized him. The moment we heard this we were enthusiastic. One of the important earth-acupuncture points we were looking for could be here.
Many holy places, such as churches and monasteries, are on these points. Often several terrestrial energy veins come together there. They can be compared to the meridians of acupuncture in our bodies. They transport life energy, ch’i according to the Chinese. Therefore there is a strong compilation of terrestrial and cosmic energy in points like this. It is therefore called a point of force.
In the afternoon the last of the diesel fuel took us to the monasteries, where we met with the next disappointment. They were deserted and dilapidated. There was little left of the former splendor. One of the monasteries was in ruins but there was some activity left in the other one. As it turned out, the Russians used it as a psychiatric facility....
It Works
The energetic treatment of the Niznesvirsky Reserve started in the summer of 1994 and lasted till the autumn of 1997. On a daily basis, energy and information were sent to the area through the map from Germany. The effect was spectacular. Most of the problems in the area were solved. It started with the finances. This heart’s desire of the Russians was fulfilled in the spring of 1995.
Unexpectedly, the management heard that the Niznesvirsky Reserve would be the first Russian reserve to be subsidized by the World Wildlife Fund. The money was meant for salaries, new materials such as a jeep and the development of ecotourism.
When I re-visited the area in 1995, I found a totally different situation; the faces were more cheerful and there was activity everywhere. Among other things, a barracks was being built for guests. I was delighted.... Before I could ask anything Vasili and the researcher Marina came to me, smiling, and said:
“Hans, it works.”
“What works?” I asked surprised.
“Your treatment. All those dark and nasty energies in the forest have gone. We are not afraid to go past the trenches anymore and we even go into them. We also feel much better in the whole area.”...
Results of the Treatment from a Distance
At the end of 1995, Czech and Russian scientists of the research centers concluded that the vitality of the trees in the whole reserve had improved by 10 percent. We were on the right track and confidence in us got bigger. The people at the Niznesvirsky Reserve were more and more pleased with the energetic treatment due to the good results. They would tease me and say: “If your treatment really works, it would be nice if the monasteries would be renovated.” All I could reply was that wishes often come true if you focus and if you and your environment are well set in your energy. Phrase a goal that is clear. Conceive it. If you want, you can pray for it....
Resonance Therapy
I still often think of the Niznesvirsky Reserve. It is an unforgettable experience when the energy changes in 40,000 hectares of forest. The trees start to grow better, the mood changes for the better, everyone feels better. Luckily I was not the only one who felt this. The Russians agreed. Scientific research confirmed it. But there was more. The increase in energy of the reserve did not only have a positive effect on the health of the trees, but also on the organization and on the money flow. Besides, there were positive changes in the area, like with the monasteries. That was new.
Our treatments had always focused on the health of the forest. Now we had side-effects. Deeply felt wishes and goals of the custodians were fulfilled. Of course one can say that that is a coincidence. On the other had it was peculiar. Thus at the end of 1997 the thought arose for the first time that chance might not exist, but that we ourselves determine what befalls on us. We can make the future happen, and what comes toward us is what befalls us. In its turn that can be either wind-fall or down-fall....
From the Introduction: How It Started
One morning I woke up with a headache. Thoughts whizzed through my head. They were accompanied by strange, incoherent feelings and images. I could make head nor tail of them, but two sentences arose from this whirlpool. They forced themselves upon me powerfully:
“Life energy plus information gives a form force.”
“Form force plus matter gives a life form.”
Back then I performed as a singer-entertainer and during daytime dreamt of writing a hit some day. Apparently I dreamt of other things at night, because I couldn’t see myself being in the top ten with these lines. Almost every song is about love in a way. Where was the love in these words? This was not the inspiration I was looking for. Nevertheless I decided to write them down. To my great surprise everything inside me subsided. The night after that was restless again. In the morning I had a headache all over again. Confused thoughts tumbled through my mind and this time, two other lines emerged:
“Becoming conscious leads to a higher state of consciousness.”
“The way there is the goal.”
These lines too, I wrote down and immediately a deep silence fell upon me again.
I have written many songs afterwards, but these four lines have always kept me in their spell. From the moment I had written them down, I felt the urge to find out their deeper meaning.
The road was a long one. Step by step I started to understand the deep meaning of these words. Slowly all the pieces of the puzzle fell into place. They form a fascinating and loving union/entirety.
From Chapter 1: Everything Is Energy, Everything Is One, Everything Is Possible:
Everything Is Energy
Everything is energy. Everything is connected to everything else. The water in the ocean and the wind in the air. The trees and the animals. You and I. We and the world around us. Everything comes from the same source and returns to it. Everything is one. Thoughts and feelings are energy as well. Thus everything you think and feel has influence on everything and everyone on this planet. In this way, we create our own reality, because mind rules over matter.
I often hear people saying this, but is it really true? If it is true it has a lot of consequences. You had best forget that you got out of bed on the wrong side immediately, because a bad start will cost you all day; and if you take the point of view that a glass is always half full instead of half empty, chance will more often be a windfall than a pitfall.
Is everything energy? Is everything united? If I look around, I see a laptop I’m writing this book on, a table, a window and behind that a garden with flowers, shrubs and trees. All individual forms and things.
Yes, everything is one, because everything consists of the same matter, but in this “solid” truth I rather see an incoherent number of phenomena than a big entirety. At school I learned that matter is built up of molecules. Molecules consist of atoms. Atoms consist of a nucleus of particles with electrons circling around it....
The solid reality turns out to be less solid than it appears. Science has proved matter to be void for 99.999999999999 percent.... If you enlarge the nucleus of an atom to the size of a pinhead, the first electron would be at a distance of 50 meters. In between, there is only empty space.
That means that the book you are reading now, the chair you sit on, the house you live in, the earth you live on, that so-called solid reality, consists of empty space for the greatest part by far. That applies to you as well. Sixty-five percent of the human body consists of water. Everyone for that matter has a hydrocephalus.
...According to the above, we all have even less than that; everyone walks around with an empty head. Even the most brainy ones. Everything and everyone consists of less than thin air....
