The third book by the author of the best-selling The Hidden Messages in Water, The Secret Life of Water, concentrates on the power of prayer. Masaru Emoto's hope is to bring the world closer to peace through the use of water. In addition to covering the three aspects of Hado-vibration, resonance and similarity, the most important aspect of Hado is the "flow" or circulation. Emoto focuses in depth on this aspect and the consequence of human nature-desire, pride, and idealogy, getting in the way of this "flow."


The Secret Life of Water talks extensively about water's ability to show us the answers—how to live happily, the meaning of loving nature, and the direction we should take. Water can act as a mirror, and the quality of water is a reflection of our hearts. Mr. Emoto stresses that the current water situation is serious. The first step toward protecting the earth and water is to focus on our prayers. Mr. Emoto documents the power of prayer when people gather together, and documents several experiments which show this.


For example, in June 1999, 350 people gathered at Lake Biwa in Japan and prayed for world peace. The water in the lake improved. Similar experiments also resulted in the formation of beautiful water crystals. Water shows us visually that our prayers can change the world. Those who become aware of their role to pray for the betterment of the earth must take action so that others will also follow. In order to facilitate this, Mr. Emoto started a project of prayer that occurs on the 25th of each month around the world. Masaru Emoto is an internationally renowned researcher who gained worldwide acclaim by showing how water is deeply connected to our individual and collective consciousness. His message is simple, profound, and far-reaching.
