"Sometimes, it feels to me like the voice of my inner child is very much like the voices of playful dolphins. And they truly have so much to teach us. For instance, joy!"
At the end of 2020, the Finnish magazine Ultra published an article titled "Elena Gushchina is the Magnet", in which I share my understanding of the memory of water and its messages. These messages reveal the nature of the world as an illusion, opening up deep truths to the reader about the interconnectedness of all that exists.
"Manifested reality is an illusion of our consciousness. However, the reality of luminous existence is absolute happiness and abundance in everything. Thus, reality is not what we see. Reality truly contains all that is needed and desired. The illusion, or thoughts, as well as old programs and emotional fluctuations, limit manifestation and make us believe that this is reality. Water, in turn, remembers everything, even our multidimensional world, which is why it is so important to remain conscious, especially in our interaction with water."
In January 2021, the Finnish magazine Sielun Peili (translated as Mirror of the Soul) published my article "Physical Meditation", in which I share my underwater experiences of feeling like in the womb of the Universe, in sensations of complete peace and unity. In this article, I talk about how all thoughts disappear underwater and the deep, cleansing effect that immersion has:
"It seems that pure consciousness manifests when there is a connection with water. It almost carries the mind so deeply into a state of awareness that the body begins to 'dissolve,' stepping back into the background of its physical manifestation. For a moment, there is a desire to create something in this state of deep relaxation – to visualize and bring something from the invisible world, solidifying it with energy and sensation. But no. Underwater, all visualization suddenly becomes unnecessary. Unity with all that exists takes center stage. Energy seems more important than matter. It's incredible. It never gets boring. It's impossible to stop enjoying immersion. Underwater, everything happens automatically. Opening the heart. Balance. Understanding the Universe. Joy. Unconditional love. Gratitude. When consciousness is pure, you begin to hear yourself and your heart."
In the moment of deep understanding, the realization comes that there is no need for desires because everything already exists in the immaterial world of all potentials, and you yourself are a part of this whole – pure Bliss. In March 2023, the PADI blog published my story in the article “Water & Diving Change Lives: One Diver’s Unfiltered Story”, where I share my personal experience and understanding of transformation through diving into the depths of water:
"Underwater, I suddenly met my inner child. My whole body began to shake with laughter and joy. And I found myself, finally, reunited with the water and what felt like my true self. Already in these first dives, I knew that I would become a dive instructor and guide others to the water. My hope was that I could open this fantastic world to others. Diving led me to a meeting not only with my inner child and my mission in life, but also filled me with joy, which, in turn, enriched me as a woman and a human being. Diving helped me discover a state of inner silence and bliss”.
Water has become my guide through deep and significant transformations, which occur through regular interaction with it. It directs, teaches, and supports me on my path of self-discovery through energies, including my fascination with quantum consciousness. One of these pivotal moments happened when; while walking along a stream, I noticed something unusual in the water: tiny transparent shapeless spheres, appearing as if out of nowhere. They moved rapidly along the river current, and within a few seconds, they turned into little fish. I watched this remarkable process for a long time, and with each passing moment, I became more convinced that what I was seeing was really happening and that my perception was not deceiving me. Over time, I allowed my mind to release this phenomenon, dismissing it as more of a fantasy than something real to be taken seriously.
But one day, while walking again, I saw the same transparent energy clusters, only now they were not splashing in the water but flying in the air, passing me by and transforming right before my eyes into butterflies. It was a short but vivid experience, where I saw three butterflies appear one after the other as if out of nowhere. "Pausing" in that moment, I sank into deep contemplation for several days. This experience opened an important realization for me: everything arises from energy in the here and now, and our thoughts and minds merely impose forms on it, interpreting and reproducing them. The same happens with our beliefs: their manifestation depends on where we focus our attention and what emphasis we place in real life. They are formed by the labels we assign to them or how we perceive them ourselves. But, essentially, behind every manifestation lies simply a cluster or sphere of transparent, neutral energy.
My story, full of these revelations, was published in September 2023 in an article titled "My and Your Liquid World" in the Finnish magazine Ultra. I share my experiences, revealing how I serve as a conduit for the messages of water, and describe working with energies during underwater dives.
"I realized that I was beyond knowledge, already in a realm where I could witness the principles of quantum physics in action. When everything arises from energy, and a wave becomes a particle (matter) thanks to the observer’s attention. What was happening in the water took clear form, even on the surface. During my walks, when I intentionally shifted into a state of bliss and silence, butterflies suddenly began to appear around me, swirling. I learned to be conscious in my contact with the subtle world through high vibrations. And my teacher in this became Water, which began to feel like a person, but in a different, liquid form. I started to literally see the manifestation of the world as an illusion in the form of liquid crystalline images. Often accompanied by invisible beings, our helpers from the immaterial world, as if made of water. I understood that reality is not what we see with our own eyes. It is beyond the capabilities of our mind (brain observations). What we see is an illusion, but true reality consists of our dreams, the things we want to happen, yet we don’t realize that they already exist in the immaterial world. Our task is simply to embrace a new paradigm and new forms of the new world and learn to be open to the infusion of energy, bliss, and silence here and now. In this new world, actions are performed in the rhythm of the heart and joy, effortlessly, and so it can be confidently said that all good things happen as if 'by themselves.' Water became my helper – or, if I may say so, a colleague – because I repeatedly see how it simply connects to the process and works alongside me, more than through me. The feedback from those receiving the energies surprises and inspires me to deepen my abilities and open up to a greater flow of energy underwater. This is how the informational channel for energy receivers was born, in which I began to almost daily share the 'messages received' underwater."
Then I felt a deep unity with water, which opened my clairvoyant senses. We literally are water, the ocean, interacting with each other through the mistaken illusion of separation, like bubbles on the water. At depth, everything is one. This unity is also felt on the surface, in everyday life, because water makes up a large part of our bodies, and its energy fills the space around us, connecting us to the world. Everything around us vibrates in a unified flow, and this vibrational pattern helps us feel connected to all that exists. We maintain this flow, for our bodies are living crystals, filled with the energy of life. Water in our bodies serves as a conduit for memory, information, and light. A significant portion of this water is structured, its molecules form an orderly crystalline grid, creating the foundation for harmony within.
During one of my dives, I felt that my cells were glowing. This sensation of energy flowing through the body – light transmitting information from one part of the being to another. The water around me reflected this harmony, amplifying the sense of balance and connection to the world.
We are energy in physical form, and this process becomes more vivid when a person consciously interacts with water. The cells come alive, the inner light flows more freely, clarity, strength, and a deep connection with oneself emerge. These realizations became the foundation of my practices and lessons. Through breath, diving, and connection with the energy of water, I show people their true nature. Each of us is a flowing crystal, capable of unlocking our own power. Water opens access to energy, awakens, and guides toward the inner light. It is at the level of emotions and feeling, through vibrations, that a new pattern of reality is created and projected into space. This is not the result of external actions, which often limit us, but a reflection of our inner states. The more we are in states of stillness and gratitude, the more harmonious and luminous this vibrational pattern becomes. These states are the foundation of the manifestation of our world, for it is in them that access to the pure, unconditional flow of energy opens.
