"Drink Water, But Remember the Source is a lively and readable ethnography that will reshape our understanding of moral discourse in the Chinese countryside. Oxfeld greatly improves upon the usual claims that China is losing all forms of communal morality by illustrating the multiplicity of views refracted through concrete events."—Robert P.

An amazing, award-winning speculative fiction debut novel by a major new talent, in the vein of Ursula K. Le Guin. Global warming has changed the world’s geography and its politics. Wars are waged over water, and China rules Europe, including the Scandinavian Union, which is occupied by the power state of New Qian. In this far north place, seventeen-year-old Noria Kaitio is learning to become a tea master like her father, a position that holds great responsibility and great secrets. Tea masters alone know the location of hidden water sources, including the natural spring that Noria’s father tends, which once provided water for her whole village. But secrets do not stay hidden forever, and after her father’s death the army starts watching their town—and Noria. And as water becomes even scarcer, Noria must choose between safety and striking out, between knowledge and kinship. Imaginative and engaging, lyrical and poignant, Memory of Water is an indelible novel that portrays a future that is all too possible.

Iniquity can be thousand whereas religion cannot be. Iniquity is disease, religion is health. Therefore, religion can be only one. And on the day when only religion will be eternal on mankind, on that day we will be free from the misunderstandings being created in the name of religion. Now this modern man, in this twenty first century needs a new policy on new grounds. This new policy is based on knowledge, not on fear. This new policy will stand on the point that today's man should understand that being moral is joyful and healthy for him. It is in his personal interest to be ethical. It is not for fear of any future. It is not for the sake of any heaven after death in fact it is the taste of being moral today on this earth and the one who is immoral is cutting his own feet with his hands. It is not like that the one who is immoral will go to hell in future, but in fact is creating hell for himself today. When a man is in complete anger, the amount of poison that spreads in his blood is hundred times enough to kill a man. We have to make this a part of our knowledge. Now the morality of the future will be part of our knowledge. We have to make love and awareness a part of our knowledge too. Without destination, if there is a way, it will be meaningless and inconsistent. Because the path which does not lead to any destination is very difficult to be named. One day the path has to accept its destination as well. And remember nothing can be achieved without any aim.

FIND OUT THE ANSWERS TO THESE QUESTIONS AND MORE: How can a jellyfish, which is almost entirely water and has neither a heart nor a brain, be a living and consciously responsive being? What kind of water is best for our well-being? Why cold water swimming is so good for us? Can water be influenced by thoughts and emotions? Does water remember? What do we really know about water? Could solving the mystery of water also help us understand ourselves? In an unprecedented way, Johanna Blomqvist dives into the mystery of water in her book, approaching water through science, physics, and the latest research, as well as from an experiential perspective. What follows is not only an interesting journey into the history and essence of water but also a highly personal dive into the various ways water influences us during our lifetimes and even through generations. Water is a simple molecule, yet we do not fully understand it. It has many strange and exceptional properties that have yet to be explained. Even the structure of water has yielded surprising results in recent studies. It appears there might be two types of water. The structure of water can begin to mimic the molecules with which it has been in contact, bringing about their effects. Even emotions seem to have a connection to water. Water increasingly appears as a state of being between the material and immaterial worlds. Water is a mystery that we need to solve to understand ourselves — after all, we are over 70% water. Water symbolizes vitality, renewal, creativity, and change. Water is fundamental and sacred. Water is the beginning and the end — from it we are born, and often it has also been the fate of our civilizations, in the form of a flood or other upheaval. "I feel that water is now my teacher, and my task is to discover who I really am and what my deepest essence is. Looking deeply is also a form of surrender. When one dares to surrender and let go, a path unfolds, becoming increasingly clear." The Mystery of Water makes you see water in a new way. You will find a new connection to water — to our deepest essence. Water may contain fundamental answers to our life, existence, and also our future.
