The Essence of Water ~ New World Voice Publishing
Can the essence of water truly be felt simple by looking at a photograph?
Feng Shui, an ancient Chinese practice dating back somewhere between 2000 to 5000 years ago, ( “The words 'feng shui' literally translate as "wind-water"in English” ), is a practice that works with both clearing and enhancing energy. Feng Shui is used today by many of our modern day home decorators and designers.
Studies from modern day decorators, who practice the ancient Feng Shui style of clearing have shown that having water in the home or workplace helps enhance movement of stuck energy in various areas.
Through his own research, Robert Berman HA’a has come to learn that simply having a photo image of water can help create a perfect tool for enhancing energy, while also creating a powerful and beautiful Chi Energy to the area.”
The ancient ones and the indigenous people of today continue to hold a belief that having their photo taken would somehow take a piece of their soul from them. For this reason, many do not like having their photos taken. According to HA’a, “What actually happens when a photo is received ( rather than “taken” ), is that a reproduction takes place of the actual Energy or Chi field of that exact moment in time and place. Nothing is actually taken, it’s only duplicated.”
“When I first began showing my photography images of water to people, I witnessed people crying while observing the images. At first, I was not sure what to make of it. I thought that maybe they were crying because of the beautiful colors in the photos. Then I began to realize something else was happening.
“If we look at water, we can see that it teaches us how to move around obstacles. For example, if water comes upon a rock ~ the water does not wait for the rock to move, it simple moves right around the rock and continues its journey while being in the flow of life.”
It teaches us how to be in the flow of life and how to release ourselves from stuck energy. When we focus our attention on viewing a photo of water, we will actually experience the energy of the Chi in the photograph, either on a conscious or sub-conscious level.”
“It is important to note! ~ that which we focus upon, we become, and if we are placing our attention towards water, we then become aware of its energy. Water can teach us many great lessons, how to release and embrace movement, both of which are a basis of being healthy.”
Most of the images were done during his water ceremonies, while giving blessings to the water. The amazing qualities of colors in his work create a healing energy to the body, mind and spirit. Color is one of the easiest ways to shift the energy in your space with Feng Shui.
