Dr. Masaru Emoto's Water Crystal Experiments
The water crystal experiments carried out by Dr. Masaru Emoto in Japan were published in newspapers and have produced enthusiastic response among readers. We subsequently interviewed several people in scientific circles and invited them to talk about the significance of the experiments. Below is an interview with physicist Dr. Cheng Luojia. Reporter: In your opinion, what is the most unique thing about the water crystal experiments carried out by Mr. Emoto? Dr. Cheng Luojia: The experiment is pretty simple. It demonstrates the differing ways of water crystallization in different situations. It is rare to have an experiment that is this concise, intuitive, and easy to understand, and that in itself is a huge accomplishment.
This experiment deals with an extremely immense and important subject, namely how people's minds influence matter. Not too many experiments have been done in this area. The relationship between matter and mind is a topic that has been debated for a long time. Being able to explore the relationship between the two using such a simple experiment is very meaningful. In addition, the original photographs of the experiments are enlarged 200 to 500 times. The observations have actually reached microscopic levels, that is, it is observing microscopic planes instead of points. This is rarely seen in scientific circles.
I believe observation of the whole microscopic plane will bring forth a brand new world to us. I think, both in terms of its subject and its research methodology, this experiment is a new beginning in science. Reporter: The results of the water crystal experiment have been published in detail in the two-volume book Messages from Water. Which parts have impressed you most?
Dr. Cheng: The first picture in the book is an ice image, water in the frozen stage, about to melt into water, but has not yet become water. It represents a complete drawing of the Chinese character for water! The ancient ancestors of the Chinese people perhaps already had the capability to see to the microscopic level. This picture gives me a new understanding of Chinese pictographic writing.

When the words Love and thank you are spoken to the water sample, the water crystals form a beautiful pattern. When the water sample was exposed to harsh, destructive words, the crystal formed is in chaos and without order. The contrasting results are amazing and are a direct reflection of the influence of people's mind on matter. We used to think that people's mind intent and spirit were metaphysical. They belong to a different category from matter, but this experiment has revealed an in-depth relationship between matter and mind.
Furthermore, we are also able to see that good intent positively influences matter, and bad thought patterns make matter ugly. When you speak beautiful to the water, its crystal becomes beautiful. When you speak dirty to it, its crystal really looks extremely dirty. Looking at these pictures, a mother would probably understand that more encouragement and praise would make children become more intelligent and beautiful.
