As well as water helping create the living bodies of all

creatures and plants through its rhythmical forming and the

reception of intelligent information, it also has a metabolic

function of dissolving and carrying nutrients throughout

nature.

Therefore, water transports many nutrients to all living

things to drink, both in the seas and through fresh water flow

on the land.

As well as all the other vitally important capacities we have

looked at, water also acts as the conveyor of nutrients within

living nature, within plants, animals and human beings. 

While it is not categorized as a food, high quality water is

a definite supporter of our bodies (beyond just wetting it

internally), with up to 84 of the 103 known minerals and

organic nutrients in nature able to be dissolved in it.

It is known that folk like the traditional Hunza people of

northern Pakistan and the  mountain folk of the Andes

attributed their amazing health and longevity, at least in

part, to their local glacial water that carried in it enriched

colloidal mineral nutrients thoroughly dissolved in it. 

Water like this quenches a thirst far more quickly than water

weak in mineral content.

This is why spring and glacial water is known to support life

so well, with its wide range of enriched nutrients well aged

within it.

Human beings, as well as all other living things, need

supporting minerals, trace elements and microscopic foods and

these can be introduced to our bodies through the water we

drink, not just through the solid foods we eat.

Many of these nutrients break down quickly in our bodies and,

for best health, need replacing, some on a daily basis. Of

course, solid foods grown in organically enriched soils provide

many of these.

As we know the quality of our food is a major issue worldwide,

and this is the main issue. Growing food fed by synthesized

fertilizers does not use nature's own wise organic methods,

the methods our bodies have been used to for millennia, if not

for millions of years.

Everywhere there is the medical evidence of epidemic

constitutional illnesses, where bodies break down in a way they

never did when farming was based on nature's intelligence.

Organic and Biodynamic farming copy and enhance nature's method

in supplying enriching nutrients, they do not replace nature

with an industrial man made system that inevitably will fall

short because of our insufficient thinking capacity.

It is worth noting that irrigation water usage for Biodynamic

farms is half that of farms fertilized with super phosphates.

Why? Primarily because organically enriched soil hangs onto a

nd uses water more efficiently.

In a time of reducing usable fresh water, this fact will become

more and more important.

I do encourage you to buy the DVD How To Save The World, for

just a few dollars. It is a fascinating film about renewing

dying soils and its inspiring effects on rural communities in

India. The movie has just been accepted into the prestigious

2007Jackson Hole Film Festival.  Just go to the website www.howtosavetheworld.co.nz

That aside, water is also the base element for foods' chemical transformation into energy within living things, and is the

main substance within all living cells, the blood, the spinal

fluid, lymph and indeed all bodily fluids.

Water, in its internal flowing as blood and lymph, maintains

and replaces tired and old cells, with every molecule of your

body being replaced every seven years, even the bones and

teeth.   And yet, our shapes stay more or less the same, even

though every particle of matter has been swept away by watery

fluids working within us.

While new aspects of this are being discovered, scientists

remain amazed at the sensitive and powerful way that cells

communicate with each other right across a living body so that

health renewal is maintained.

Certain organic substances called glyconutrients are needed

for this effective communication, and yes, water well hydrated

within cell walls is central to this effective communication.

As we grow older and possibly drink less good quality water,

the intra-cellular water dries out. Good quality water,

rejuvenated and enriched, moves through cell walls more easily

and hence it is vital that sufficient pure water is drunk to

maintain nice expanded watery cells.

In these last four articles (numbers seven, eight, nine and

ten) we have seen that water can receive, carrying and share

information, that it can be expressively creative with the

most beautiful and sensitive living shapes and rhythms and that

it can also build up and renew living bodies both within and

throughout nature.

Realizing this, it is only a small step to wonder if, in a way,

water might think, feel and will, that it might have a sort of

spread out nervous system in its molecular resonance, a

rhythmic system that can forms life and a metabolism that

enriches and sustains all living things that nature creates.

Of course, it is 'nature' that is carrying out these amazing

activities through water. It is the wisdom of nature, that we

are really only just beginning to understand on its own terms,

that is working through water so intelligently and beautifully.

Water has had capacities like this from the beginning of time.

Should it be a surprise to find that we humans have a similar

threefold physiology, made as we are primarily of water?

This is not such a far-fetched idea, remembering that water

has been around since the start of the known universe far

beyond even our galaxy, and is in all places where life is.

Maybe water is the 'missing link', maybe water is somehow the

original template for the human being, and we, plus all

creation, have been formed and molded originally somehow out

of water?

Next article, the 12th of 13, we will look at the future and

what humanity has to do to care for fresh sweet running

water, that precious 0.1% of the earth's total water supply.
