The Art Of Loving - spiritual knowing and wisdom

There is so much more to know, to learn, to be taught by the plant kingdom than we are aware of today. People from all professions and beliefs have been studying and looking into the incredible actions and life of plants since Aristotles time.

Aristotles teachings included plants have souls yet he also taught plants experience no sensation, this belief stayed for many years until it was proven that plants trees and all greenery do feel and experience ESP, when lie detector tests were undertaken plants registered stress when other life forms were hurt or damaged.

Carl von Linné was shot down by Darwin and others when he stated, after much research, 'the only difference between plants, animals, and humans is their lack of movement.' He also believed plants and trees have feelings. Darwin, with his enquiring mind, later went on to prove independent movement in plants, only used when it was advantageous to their welfare.

Modern research shows trees communicate with each other, the under ground root system of trees is only just becoming understood and is still in its infancy, the hidden world of trees is wondrous, mother trees will always seek out their 'children' via the underground root system to sustain them first.

The Virginia knotweed hurls her seeds far and wide by simple and pure genius, by tying a sailor's knot which forces the vine to dry and to snap, casting her seeds as far as possible.

On our wonderful planet there is nothing more lovelier in my opinion than perfumed flowers, and the wonders of the greenery covering Mother Earth, without the wide selection of green plants mankind would neither eat nor breathe, yet we seem to take it all in our stride, we take it for granted. Without plants and trees our existence is questionable.

Plants have for far too long been seen as 'just plants', seen for their beauty but not for their knowing and wisdom and spiritual capacities. Research over the years teaches us plants react to sound, react to loving tones of voice. Plants and flowers are an absolute must have at ceremonies; weddings, births, deaths and as tokens of our love for each other. We adorn our living spaces with plants and flowers they are a central part of our lives, but do we understand or even aware of the pivotal part they play in our lives for our health, wellbeing and spiritual growth?

Take the time to watch the plants you have in your home or at the work place. Observe, gently rub their leaves often in passing as you think loving thoughts about them and watch them thrive, brighten glisten and grow strong.

It is found by lengthy research plants react positively to kind and warm toned human voice, they feel, they react to sound that humans cannot hear, they react to colour and are especially sensitive to environmental frequencies that are not positive.

During a time of such considerable change and with AI striding forth with the profound changes this is likely to bring to mankind, we must never forget humanness and the availability to us of Mother Earth's abundance and the vital role plants and trees will play in our lives going forward.

It is so easy to say, get out and rediscover nature, but it is far more compelling and deeper than that, observe and connect with all things growing both outside and at home and at work.By the simple act of gently stroking a plants leaves for just seconds on a regular daily basis while thinking loving thoughts towards the plant can so easily be taught to children, teaching them the art of loving, teaching them the power of loving thoughts and the wonderful effects these will have on other living things too such as people, animals and all living things, and it is demonstrable as shown by the plant thriving and positively glowing in full lushness.

.Let them water and care and observe the plant grow lush healthy and strong by their kind loving and gentle care. Children can learn easily and effortlessly that when they think a thought they will release a power that will have a visible effect on every living thing as demonstrated by the plant thriving, going on to explain the spiritual truth, thoughts do have power, and to use their own power to guide their thoughts to more positive thoughts in life.

As they grow and develop with more understanding, they will naturally achieve spiritual growth.

As adults it is a good reminder for us too, lest we forget in this hurried changeable world that thoughts are as powerful as the spoken word.

Please be aware that these are my thoughts and opinions. Please do your own research.
