cause of disease - boiling water kills it???

[Guest guest]

One thing I would like to add about water. Water is a living entity.

When we boil water to kill the "germs" we also kill the life of the

water. The resultant water does not give us the life force that we seek

from it. The damage to the environment and water resources will be a

very great stumbling block in our quest to return to health.

the water itself isn't alive, but contains living organisms

we don't obtain too much benefit from these organisms, and of course

the concern is that some will cause life-threatening or chronic disease

 

rather, we obtain benefit from the solvent properties of water itself,

its elemental structure and electro-chemical properties, as well as the

naturally occurring compounds that are dissolved in it

 

when water is boiled it does not cease becoming water

its electro-chemical properties may be changed somewhat, but these are

recognized to affect the doshas in different ways and thus boiling

water for different periods of time is one strategy to change the

qualitative action of water

 

in ayurveda water can be safely drunk without treatment if it is

sourced from rain, fast-moving rivers/creeks, artesian wells and

natural springs - however, none of this is an absolute guarantee the

water won't contain harmful microbes, but rather, the risk is minimal

 

in all cases where water quality is suspect it should be boiled for at

least 2 minutes - this will kill 99% of all microbes

My mother has been boiling water for years. Esp Tap

water since it contains many many chemicals these days

(chlorine, etc). She also adds in some amount of

gold , silver and copper.. and boils it a considerable

amount of time. She read about this "tonic" water as

a source of good energy.

 

also these days is the theory of magnetized water.

 

how do these relate?
