We spent August of 1976 in the family chalet at Xixerella, Andorra. The last symbol, the Grail symbol, was still there in the garden. The idea formed in my mind that, if I were to do anything with the garden, it ought to be based on the symbol. So I decided to build a circle of stones sunken into the garden which would double as a barbecue area. Against a background of cynical family tolerance, the work was completed. I say completed, because I had originally intended to cement the floor and pick out the Grail symbol in the mosaic. However, I had noticed shortly after we arrived that the single line had become a triple and, after completion of the circle, over the period of a week, started to multiply until it was a forty-nine bar line. In dowsing the area I noticed that behind the house the Tri-onis symbol was also permanently there.

I questioned Elohim from time to time and he certainly approved of the work. I asked about the purpose of the symbol and the essential "Yes-No" routine revealed that it was a magic circle which could be used only for white magic as it was the Grail symbol. I enquired as to why the feeder-line was multiplying and was told it was charging up the circle, as a defence against misuse. Accordingly, on Sunday 5th September at 11.00 p.m. Andorran time (21.00 hours G.M.T.) I stood in the centre of the symbol where the seven circles were and said to myself: "In the name of Tetragrammaton, Elohim, Jesus and the great seven may the power in this circle be used to neutralise the activities of practitioners of evil everywhere, so may it be." I dowsed the circle and the symbol disappeared, to be replaced by the f symbol, the circular part being formed by my masonry. The Gothic arch leading into the sitting room remained. I asked Elohim if I had done well. "Yes," he said, "but the Grail symbol would never return to that spot, the f symbol of love would however remain."

I went inside, poured myself a whisky and wrote this piece. I am sorry if there appears to be an air of cynical levity about it all. In a sense I believe it is my protection. None of this is a purely emotional experience, or a spiritual one, in the sense that I perceive things in a welter of emotional turmoil. All of it is perceived through the rod and is therefore entirely prosthetic, to the extent that, if a neighbour caught me at it and engaged me in conversation, I would break off without a second thought and talk to him about this and that, and carry on later. Nevertheless, I remain entirely convinced that this was a meaningful and real experience. Perhaps this is material man's way back to his spiritual origins, having set aside the priest.

The question is whether or not I am dowsing my own subconscious, and I am the first to consider this possibility. There is no doubt in my mind and, I hope, the readers' that the lines, as such, have an objective reality. What is more doubtful is whether the related phenomena do. What concerns me somewhat is the extent to which my own subconscious can project lines and symbols whose reality depends solely on me, and not on something external. What is at stake is of a much more profound importance. Do these experiences have a reality which depends on intelligences and forces operating in other dimensions? Circumstantially the evidence I have is "Yes", but then only I know that I knew nothing of the significance of Elohim, the Tri-onis symbols, Arcturus, the constellation, the Great Bear, Arthur and the Round Table, etc., before they were written out for me. The cynic will quite rightly say, "Ah yes, but they were all in your subconscious anyway." My reply would be that I have searched my mind as far as one is able, and I can honestly say that I knew nothing of these things.

The fact that another may follow my own dowsing experiences as they take place is not conclusive of external intelligences at work, or indeed that my activities have some effect on events. Following the arguments I have put forward elsewhere, namely that the dowsing experience is a question of 'tuning in' to the subconscious, then another who 'tunes in' can equally well be dowsing my subconscious. Yet even if that were the case, it would not necessarily invalidate the experience. Positivist science is a dead end. How many more sub-atomic particles can we discover and how far can the theory of anti-matter go? It is feasible to posit that ultimate reality may well be reducible only in terms of a relativist approach. As a non-scientist I can only dimly grope towards these things, but I recognise that I need to show the Elohim experience to be an objective one and not a dowsing of my subconscious, fascinating as that may be.

The evidence for ley-power being used for magical purposes I hope I have established. The Druids and their spokesmen seem to be powerful corroborators of that. Apart from field evidence, the use of symbols for magical purposes has been genuinely established, but the operations of Elohim and his missions less so, unless of course you believe in the Bible or Rudolf Steiner, or even Aleister Crowley. But if you don't, I have a problem and I don't know how to overcome it. Certainly, I seek to tell the truth, as I see it.
