Perfect crystals

August 10, 2001

Hi Fellow Members,

I am a British Physicist who has recently

got involved in complementary medicine . Last week I had my first Reiki

healing session ,the effects on me were amazing .

Anyway , I have done some work in x-ray crystallography taking the Laue

photographs of the diffracted x-rays that are scattered by the internal

molecular structure of crystals. This gives a measure of the layout of the

atoms in the crystal lattice . I think it is interesting to point out that

no perfectly formed crystal has ever been found as they all, both natural

and artificial, have dislocations in the long range order of the chains of

molecules that make up the crystal. Considerable effort has gone into to

growing crystals in the micro-gravity environment conditions of a space

station . Even here the presence of convection currents during crystal

growth causes some imperfections but much less than occurs here on earth .

Perhaps samples of these more perfect crystals would increase their healing

properties dramatically.

regards to all,

Bill

Wow! that is fascinating.

My personal opinion is that perfect crystals would not probably be

more effective as healing crystals than imperfect crystals and might

even be less effective . I realize that's not the conventional view

but my inner guidance equates the chips and inclusions and distortions

of form with learning with experience and wisdom

Of course being created in space would be experience too

From a philosophical point of view - for a long time I searched out only

perfect-looking crystals until I learned to just see what was there instead of

what I wanted to see. Now they're all beautiful.

Artificially grown crystals will still have at least some of their natural

state's properties combined with the properties they're formed with and

conditions they're formed under. So, synthetically grown quartz in zero-G, I

would expect, would have a connective, expansive and cosmic feel to it, probably

not unlike a meteorite (which has a wonderful feel because of its crystalline

metal.)
