Hello mudra,

Excellent idea! Great thread!:thumb_yello:

Has you know, I do have the privilege of having a great garden, with lots of flowers, century old trees, some palm trees....
I thank everyday for having this.

It's so refreshing to the soul to go and walk around the garden, when I'm in a bad mood. It's an excellent therapy.

Here's a photo from one Camelia Japonica

Let's take good care of this "garden" created by mudra.

Love and Respect

Re: The secret life of plants
 

Plants are intelligent forms of life who are capable of intention, preference, and a will to survive, thrive and interact. Scientific research indicates that plants communicate with insects, animals, human beings and other plants in order to keep themselves alive and safe. Evidence also reveals that plants are telling us how to achieve health and wholeness for humanity and the earth herself.

Plants Are Just Like People

In research which spans more than 100 years, scientists have been documenting botanical adaptability and the amazing similarities that plants have with animals and people. Studies indicate that what metaphysicians, psychics, shaman, tribal people and sensitives worldwide have been saying about the plant kingdom for millennia is true: plants are intelligent beings who can communicate with us, and, we can communicate with them.

You Can Hurt a Plant’s Feelings

Plants respond not only to insects and animals but to human emotion and intention. Plants can distinguish between people who are feel kindly towards them and people who don't, and our green friends cooperate with people they like. In one experiment a new scientist came to study some test plants. Surprisingly, these test plants which previously had been very responsive, were completely non-responsive during the new scientist's tests. Investigating the change in the plants' response, it was discovered that the new scientist incinerated his plants in his own personal research once his tests were completed. Shortly after the new scientist left, the plants again began registering activity and cooperating.

In another study, scientists found that vegetation reacted negatively to people who found the plants unattractive, even to the extent that the plants would "faint." When over stimulated by emotions, plants will "go unconscious" or numb and can stay " moody" for weeks. Scientific studies show that once plants attune themselves to a particular person, they are able to maintain a link with that person, no matter how far away. These
plants register "knowing" not only when a person is returning to the plants, but when the person makes the decision to return. Other reports show that plants respond to people talking to them in a caring, loving manner, such as asking a tree to radically change its growth direction so that it won't have to be cut, or asking weeds not to grow excessively in a vegetable garden.

Re: The secret life of plants
 

Here is a pic of part of my secret life with plants. I have managed horticulture and agronomy on golf courses the Findhorn Way for years. Large scale transformational energy techniques on the land combined with working hand in hand with nature spirits can result in pics like this.

Re: The secret life of plants
 

I'd like to share with you guys my little experience with plants. I moved to a small acreage beginning May of this year because I wanted to learn how to grow food. All I can say is its absolutely amazing to work with plants and gardens.

I didn't even know what a perennial was until a few months ago so believe me, if I can do this anyone can. I have more food then I can possibly hope to eat after only 1 1/2 months!

Here is one of my babies at one month old, already it was more then I could eat!

And this is from earlier today, june19th, same garden, getting out of control!:mfr_lol: About 1 1/2 months old here.
http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/b...june192009.jpg


And here is some roses that just bloomed today(or at least I just noticed them). I'm not sure what their names are but they smell like bliss. :tongue2:

A few years back I was working an office job behind a PC all day and now I'm so very tempted just to go off in the mountains somewhere away from moon-ey and these cult-ures and just live with earth, peace, and abundance. I swear eating these foods is so magical, I have never tasted or felt anything like it before. Its energy of the highest order. I can't give enough thanks to creation.. but I certainly try. :thumb_yello:

Re: The secret life of plants
 

wow this thread is hitting on all 8 synchronystic cylinders for me! amazing!

Mudra - My dad took me to see this at Cinema 99 in Concord NH in 1979 - I was 11 years old. It profoundly impacted me.

JRod 7 -I love Newfound Lake - been there many times! Spent my youth in NH as well!

tone3jaguar - My aunt used to tell me about Findhorn when I was young all the time. I promised her if I ever made a million dollars I would fly her out there for a trip.

Ptha - I too had the office job behind a PC all day and now am living surrounded by the most abundant plant life I've ever seen! Its worth every dollar I don't make anymore!:naughty:

Thanks to everyone on this thread for giving me an incredible blast from the past!
