Dowsing: A Path to Enlightenment

By Joey Korn

When most people think of dowsing, they think of an old-timer using a forked tree branch to find a place to drill or dig for underground water. That's what I used to think too. Now I see dowsing as a powerful tool for self-exploration, for understanding the natural forces of the Universe, and for working knowingly with the Creator and with Nature in our lives. It allows us to tune into what is going on behind the scenes of life in the world of subtle energies.

I learned to dowse in 1986 from a kindly old gentleman who helped me find our septic tank with a pair of cut-up coat hangers that he had fashioned into L-shaped rods. He walked forward with the rods while asking to find the main sewer pipe coming from the house. When he reached the pipe, the rods opened to point in opposite directions, making a line. Then he walked away from the house along this line, asking to find the septic tank, and his L-rods opened again. “There's your septic tank,” he said. Sure enough, that's exactly where it was. I had been studying metaphysics for many years by then and when I saw this, I was hooked. I definitely saw this as a spiritual process. I've been dowsing ever since.
