Kinship With All Life

     

My favorite dogwood tree is dying. I’ve been watching it and sending love. I became interested in the inter-connectivity of trees after reading the rich novel, The Overstory. This caused me to want to know more, so I delved into the plethora of youtube videos on the subject. It’s quite fascinating! Not only do they communicate with each other, they send needed nutrients back and forth to those in need. We all know there is much to be learned from all of nature. It seems I remember The Celestine Prophecy addressing  trees and their auras. James Redfield suggests that we practice bringing back our innate ability to see auras by practicing on trees. He tells us the tree’s energy is strong and we can stand with an open mind and heart in front of the tree, holding our hands just an inch away, and feel, then see, the tree’s energy. Such strong entities all around us, and we seldom notice what they’re up to! Today I think I’ll see if I can feel as much life in human beings as the beautiful trees emit! 

“Nature voices natural, spiritual law and divine Love, but human belief misinterprets nature. Arctic regions, sunny tropics, giant hills, winged winds, mighty billows, verdant vales, festive flowers, and glorious heavens, — all point to Mind, the spiritual intelligence they reflect. The floral apostles are hieroglyphs of Deity. Suns and planets teach grand lessons. The stars make night beautiful, and the leaflet turns naturally towards the light.” 

Mary Baker Eddy - Science & Health Page 240:1-9


“There is a light in you which cannot die; whose presence is so holy that the world is sanctified because of you. All things that live bring gifts to you, and offer them in gratitude and gladness at your feet. The scent of flowers is their gift to you. The waves bow down before you, and the trees extend their arms to shield you from the heat, and lay their leaves before you on the ground that you may walk in softness, while the wind sinks to a whisper round your holy head.” A Course in Miracles W-156.4:1-4
