Our front and back gardens are a mixture of run wild and English landscaped. So we never weed and only prune plants when they severely overgrow other plants. So a lot of wild plants came naturally into our gardens like Pyramidal Orchid, Loosestrife, Campanula, Avens and many other species. Toads, frogs and bees overwinter in our gardens, and hatched young birds often arrive in spring, even if the nests are elsewhere. They have more shelter, more food, more chance to survive. It goes without saying that our gardens contain actually no tiles. Nature is in fact in control.
But sometimes I have to prune plants or cut the grass and I don’t enjoy this in a way. I am well aware that they are all living creatures. And I cut and fell and prune.
I always asked
God:
"Do
You want to bless the devas* of the plants and the plants themselves, which I
am going to prune?"They are blessed is always the answer.
But still, I continue to find pruning a disaster. Whole minicultures I am destroying with my pruning.
I asked the Pachamama *, the spirit of the garden: "What must I do, to let this pruning become less horrible?" And do know that you and all plants are blessed by the good God. "
I heard:
Many thanks, my
brother man. I am the spirit of the garden and tell all the devas of the plants
that they are blessed. This is much appreciated. And when you tell me what your
plans are 15 minutes before you start pruning, the following happens:
I communicate this and
all the energy and life are withdrawn temporally out of the plants you are pruning.
They then find themselves in a state where you people have no word for, it’s a
mixture of coma and apparent dead. Exactly two hours later all forces, all
devas of the plants, all the spirits of the individual plants and the plants
themselves start again with the primal urge to live and grow. And because you
have announced your pruning these forces are not offended, not mistreated, not
violated, and 100% available to go on with life and to be available.
Indeed, because of the
respect showed by you, and the early announcement of necessary pruning there
are special results. The energy in your gardens, the wealth of growth and flourishing,
the harmony and beauty and the diversity of wild species will be bigger than if
you simply just at random starts, without announcement.
Your attitude, your
asking for God's blessing for us and your early announcement is exceptionally
valued by all spiritual beings in your gardens. You can feel the blessing of
it.
I have
experienced it now several times for myself. If I act in this way a subtle
sense of warmth and love and respect come into my heart. As if I get back the
joy and love, even though I'm pruning. It feels so good, as if everything is
quite okay.
I ask the
spirit of our backyard, "Did I experience this all well, or am I
exaggerating and inventing it all?"
My brother man, you
are invent nothing. Everything is truthful. We experience your love and respect
and answer it with love and respect and all the joy we are capable of. We are offering you all
the more joy and harmony and feel very blessed in these gardens. Could it be
like this everywhere is not what we are thinking, because we are not plaintive,
but we would welcome it for all the other gardens.
And when you some time
ago had to cut something, and almost started, and then remembered you wanted to
announce the fifteen minutes, you stopped immediately, had to really make some
effort to wait fifteen minutes before you could start.
And we, the living
creatures in the garden, have noted it and seen it and appreciated it and we
rejoiced us very much about so much love and respect. You must have felt this.
Yes, that's
right, I suddenly felt so happy and tidy inside, for no reason.
Thank you
for this conversation, pachamama of the garden.
Thank you, my brother man,
on behalf of all creatures in this garden.
My God, I
thank You for this all, for this insight, for this communication, I'm happy
with it.
My son, everything is recorded truthfully.
Bless you for your openness, your respect for the beings in nature, and
especially on this small piece of land you may "manage" for a while.
All spirits and creatures in your gardens are
blessed.
My blessings to you all
