Sorry I'm being a bit dense but it's complicated. However, I think I can now see what you're saying, which is: a force unknown to science radiates from the target and into the head of the dowser and causes a mind/body interaction (that he's unaware of) that causes his brain to send a message to his wrist muscles to twitch and move the rods? Is that right?


There are various assumptions that are problematic . Why assume the dowser is male , that consciousness is located in the head and that the movement of the rods is due twitching wrist muscles ?


You're right. Assumptions are motorways to Barmyland. So remind me, why is it assumed that a force undetected by both science and the dowser passes from the target into the latter's unconsciousness?
