| What is Dowsing?
The American Society of Dowsers has created a wonderful definition of dowsing and states “upon these concepts The American Society of Dowsing is founded.” It is as follows. Dowsing is a faculty employed with intent to expand the perceptive abilities of its practitioner beyond three-dimensional limitations. It is a most ancient, varied craft, as ancient and as varied as humanity itself. Dowsing has roots, among all manner of peoples, lands and epochs. There seems to exist an ageless natural knowledge, that enables us to identify ourselves with an unknown source of being and becoming; it is of primary significance, joining Earth, sea, and stars. Explanation of dowsing's whys and wherefores is still far from satisfactory, but to refuse to explore the unexplainable simply because it cannot presently be explained is unscientific and irresponsible. Dowsing is a fact. As awareness grows, the public mind should recognize that when based on ample training, experience and talent, dowsing is a most useful skill, applicable to many fields of human activity. Spiritual pride is to be avoided by the dowser. Psychic powers, intellectual aptitudes, or physical skills are useless unless applied for the benefit of all, because they bring increased sensitivity. These may properly be expressed only in an increasing awareness of the oneness of all life and in the greater love for the whole of humanity. Any activity that investigates, perpetuates, and expands humankind's lore, mysteries, beliefs, traditions, and useful abilities should command at once loyalty and service. In the energizing of such activity, the power generated in and by a group of interested persons is greater by far than the sum of its members.
