I'd like to add something to this regarding gem waters, with my knowledge of stones I would never recommend the use of gem waters as even "non toxic" stones can be potentially harmful as they can still contain trace elements of harmful materials. There are also a number of stones that while not generally harmful and non soluble may release tiny fragments when put into water which once consumed can cause harm through materials (such as tigers eye which contains asbestos) that would then be absorbed or in the case of quartz will create tears in you organs which can be fatal in cases. So I would advise heavy caution and consideration before ingesting gem water, the alternative method of using stones externally such as placing them on skin or on clothing is a much safer method though some precaution is still necessary.

This list is kind of vague about why each thing woul be toxic, but as I understand, basically one should avoid making elixirs from stones that contain copper, lead, mercury, etc. (I'm confused about "iron-nickel meteorite" though. Someone could have an allergy to nickel or an aversion to iron, but why would it be generally "harmful"?)

I agree with both of you. There are alternative ways of making gem elixirs: indirect method/double walled, using a photograph and placing a glass of water over the photo, or writing down the name of the mineral and putting the glass of water on that.  I have done all 3 with successful results and have suggested same to others and they too had successful results.

Multi Dimensional Reality

The world as you know it - all that you see, taste, feel and touch, comprises only about 5% of all of the stuff of the universe. The other 95% is what we have considered "nothing" or the "firmament"  or dark matter or the heavens or mystic Other Worlds. This 95% is multi-dimensional and consists of potential realities that may be perceived.

A single thought...a mere whisper, ...... barely upon a breeze that catches a spark... all is tinder before the firestorm... and yet.
ONLY that whisper
ONLY that thought
 the world is forever changed beyond the fears and dreams of cardboard men.
Freedom and change starts within:
It is encouraged by truth and courage of people who love
Built by the respect of true beings standing as one before each other.
Lets us cross every man made borders
without fear stare into eyes and hearts of all our brothers and sisters: within our words without shouting,or force to hold each to our truths; and let us without fear freely share what works...

Past lives and multiple lives

After having spent many hundreds of hours counseling persons on their past lives, I came to believe that all of that is an illusion and could as well be true that these lives are lived simultaneously or purely in imagination. But I must say that there is no question whatsoever that whether these lives were real or are real they influence the body, mind and soul of the person.  What is you opinion about this? See More
