In 1934, four years before the Editor of this EBook was born in 1938, Abbé Mermet was involved in a legal action in Switzerland for alleged ‘illegal’
practice of medicine. He was acquitted of the charge brought against him by some local medical bureaucrats who, however, appealed against the verdict and succeeded in getting it annulled, with the result that Abbé Mermet was fined.
It has been reported as history tells, that this stupid miscarriage of justice caused great anger and indignation among Abbé Mermet’s supporters, including a number of eminent doctors and laymen, who expressed their outraged feelings in a stream of letters to the Abbé.

As this legal action had no scientific relevance at all to the principles and practice of Radiesthesia, it was decided to omit, in the English translation along the various editions, the lengthy account of the case and the considerable correspondence concerned with it.
It was also considered unnecessary to include the favourable opinions on Radiesthesia of two French authors both long since deceased, Leon Daudet and Marcel Prevost, which are of little interest or importance to English worldwide.
The Editor of this EBook is not a professional radiesthetist, but used for years and years the pendulum only for personal reasons, and with success when he needed assistance. Though he has been in the business world, he was also actively integrated in religion just as Abbé Mermet (in English Reverend Father Alexis Mermet) from 1974 when he was ordained to the priesthood, in confronted with, the misunderstanding around his person.
Radiesthesia did lead the editor’s life, but not from the point-of-view of religion.
Before 1974, the editor also partook in the work of the Meditation Groups and Psychosynthesis, Sundial House, Tunbridge Wells, Kent, UK, found by Dr.
Roberto Assagioli, MD from Italy. From there, the editor is well acquainted with the science of the mind and its workings. In 2010, the editor ended all religious activities, and became an atheist (this is how he calls himself today). To be short, religion is brain work only, man’s work, as reading there sacred books they were instituted mainly for political reasons, and as such creating fear and obeisance.
Let us simply say this, our thoughts create reality through functions and processes of a brain that is our faithful servant. Human beings are meaning-makers and information processors. We are compelled to make sense of the world around us.
Mind Power creates and controls reality. Think of Desire-Force as the warm, ardent, fiery, forceful energy, underlying the manifestations of Mind-Power; and of the Will-Power as the cold, keen, strong, directing, controlling projector of the energy. By fixing these mental images in your mind, you will be better able to manifest the two phases as occasion arises. To create a thing you must want it

with a burning desire that allows no denial, backed up by a will that knows no such word as “can’t” or “no.”
To live as a powerful creator, you have to banish the illusion as religion once and for all that you are not in control. Because you will always arrive back at the core truth that you are the creator of your reality within yourself and that you control all of it. Not being in control makes you feel like a victim, of religion, as an example.
Nothing happens outside of you. Everything is happening within you. You are Consciousness, and Consciousness encompasses All That Is. Whenever you feel not being in control, you are experiencing an illusion. You created the illusion of not being in control, of not being God. You are the director of the script and can control at will. This has helped the Editor a lot: “I am the Power, I am the Glory, I am another God.”
Don’t be a victim. All power is within you and is absolutely under your control.
To say that things happen through another cause other than yourself is to say that you are a victim.
Radiesthesia is the power to connect with the subconscious and get knowledge so that you are more in control over yourself and matters around you. It also gives you the knowledge to discover what lies hidden and unknown, otherwise.
The best and the most important thing about radiesthesia is that this knowledge is not limited to any particular group of people, like seers, kings, etc. It is available for everyone, for each one of us. All you need is a radiesthesia pendulum. This can be made even from a piece of thread and a small finger ring.
What seemed like para science yesterday and is not, becomes the science of the mind today. As we have learnt from Abbé Alexis Mermet in this Ebook, Radiesthesia can be used to:
Select a mechanic
Identify automobile problem
Choose the most suitable rental car company Choose the most suitable car to buy
Locate where you parked your car
For communicating with one’s subconscious
Finding ways to enhance psychic awareness and strengths Knowing about the past
Removing mental blocks
67 For Locating Underground Resources
Locate wells, water pipes, sewer lines, underground streams, etc.
Divert water, for example, to a dry well or around a house/apartment Analyse water problems, for example, check source and level of contamination
Check for water leaks
Locate underground electric lines, gas lines, telephone lines, fault lines, etc.
Locate buried mines and booby-traps Find buried or hidden treasure
Locate oil or minerals, and much more
The author and editor, we see in his EBooks uses mainly maps as they are like pictures – symbolic form representations that carry the vibrations of what they portray. To do map or picture dowsing, visualize what you want to find and swing your pendulum over the areas represented. You can detect water, minerals or lost objects by attuning your vibration of intention to ‘home’ in on the vibration of that which is sought. Your pendulum will circle when it locates what you want.
Practice will make you better, but don’t forget that with some people it takes a 20 – 30 second attunement and adjustment before achieving results.

For many years the author and editor of these pages worked in close collaboration with the work of Dr. Roberto Assagioli, MD, founder of psychosynthesis and two meditation groups, Meditation Group for the New Age, and Creative Meditation Group, located at Sundial House, Tunbridge Wells, Kent, UK. Both meditation groups were represented by Michal Eastcott and Nancy Magor (both authors of outstanding publication). Today the groups are in other hands.
