All nature communicates
Do plants communicate with us? Do trees resonate with our energy? What about the earth? Does wind respond to our emotions? Does water understand our thoughts?
If the answer to all of these questions is yes( and the answer is yes), then how do we make this happen in our own life?
It’ s a practice that seems complicated to those at the beginning of their spiritual path, and effortless to those who’ ve been walking their path for awhile.
This is because full presence is all that is required.
When we become one of One: when we inhabit our full Divine reality, even for just a few minutes, we become able to resonate with everything— even the tree, deer, wind, water.
We are not separate
It is common to think of nature as something separate from us. That we are human, and nature is nature, and these are different, somehow. But we are not separate from nature, any more than we are separate from anything in the Universe. may become the highway for various bugs: ants will crawl over you, gnats will pester you. Bees may buzz. Smaller life forms will also find you in your animal state: seeds, burrs, spores, lichens, mosses. In an hour, you will become so intimately involved with nature that it will be hard to know which is nature and which is you.
Nature changes our vibration
Yet it is not only our interaction with nature in the physical form that shows us our connection; it is also our interaction with nature in the energetic or vibrational plane.
If you have even sat outside quietly and meditated, you will begin to notice that your own vibration changes the longer you are in that space. You become calmer. Your mind clears. You become spiritually aware.
You experience consciousness.
You may even move into a state of bliss. These are all things that just happen, when you are simply“ being” in the natural world.
Nature responds to our thoughts
Something else very interesting happens when you become aware of the vibration of the natural world around you: Nature will begin to respond to your thought vibrations.
WISDOM & SELF-GROWTH
Try this for yourself. Sit under a tree for an hour and watch the leaves wave in the breeze; or lie your back in the grass and gaze at the sky.
In that hour, you will become intimately involved with nature! You will stop your experience of being sanitized, clean and protected“ human” and become“ animal” instead. Your skin may become damp from where you are sitting. You may become exposed to wind or sun. You
For example, if you are recalling a particularly charged memory, and you are very focused on this feeling, you may suddenly notice that the wind picks up, or the sun suddenly goes gloomy, or it begins to rain.
This will be enough to make you take notice: to think“ hmmm, that’ s something.” And then, you will shift into awareness and start paying attention, and you will realize that nature is providing you with a soul message.
