Blog #140--Walking on Water

Did you know that more than 1200 species on Earth can walk on water? Many are tiny insects that are extremely light in weight, but some reptiles, amphibians, birds and even mammals are capable of walking short distances on top of water. It might seem like a miracle for a human to walk on water, but I believe it is possible under the right circumstances.

Insects take advantage of the surface tension of water, the weak force that holds water molecules together. But they also have feet that are magnetically repelled by water, allowing them to weigh even less when in contact with it. Fisher spiders are able to hunt for fish by standing on water and jiggling one leg below the surface to attract the attention of a small fish. When a fish gets too close, the spider grabs it. Of course, walking on water has its drawbacks for fisher spiders since they are easy prey for larger fish if they venture too far from shore.

Birds such as western grebes are able to paddle above water for short distances as part of their mating ritual. Once a bond has been established, they literally become uplifted by the experience. Their euphoria allows them to rise up toward the sky, where their webbed feet can then paddle as a loving twosome to celebrate their joining. Their actions are synchronized perfectly, suggesting their auras combine completely to become one entity.

The basilisk lizard, also called the “Jesus lizard,” can raise its head and run rapidly on webbed feet to evade predators for short distances. It moves too quickly to sink significantly below the water’s surface as long as it maintains its momentum.

The Christian master Jesus is reported in the Holy Bible to have walked on water, although there are no eyewitness reports to confirm it. The earliest accounts are from more than 100 years after his passing, so we cannot prove conclusively the reports of his achievement.

However, his is not the only reported case of a human walking on water. Journalist Baird Spalding traveled to India, Tibet and Nepal in the early 20th century and reported witnessing a number of human actions most of us would call miracles, including a few special masters who could walk on water. His reports are included in a six-volume series of books called “Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East.” In his book “Living with the Himalayan Masters,” Swami Rama describes a man who devoted his life to levitation and spent much of his day above the trees. Levitation is a similar process.

Theoretically, humans could walk on water by changing their vibratory rate to become lighter and repel water. It would take a state of euphoria like western grebes experience to counteract the effects of gravity. Most people know that oil and water don’t mix; put them together and most if not all the oil rises to the surface. In a way, the two processes may be similar.

How do we change our vibratory rate? A consummate actor becomes one with his or her higher self and then precipitates out into the aura of the person being expressed. The actor appears to others as a different person. Another way of saying this is we must let go of our egos and become one with our spirits. In doing so, we free ourselves from the downward effects of gravity, allowing us to repel from the water.

I can’t state with certainty this is possible since I haven’t done it myself. But I believe there is a scientific principle waiting to be discovered that could explain how to walk on water, levitate and do many other things we now consider miracles. Believing we can do these things is an essential first step. If 1200 other species can walk on water, perhaps we can also.
