A tree... A reflection of oneself...

Here is another passage from my daily meditation book I would like to share with you...

'If you look carefully at a tree, you will see that everything is in its roots. The trunk, the branches, the flowers, the fruit are merely an expression of the roots, which manifest themselves into beauty, colour, splendour, flavour and scent. The roots themselves are black, ugly, expressionless, but what comes out of them is marvellous and if they should disappear there would be nothing left, no trunk, no branches, no flowers, no fruit.

Anyone who is amazed by the wonder of trees rarely thinks of the roots, how intelligent and competent these must be to produce such splendour. The roots are never talked about because they remain in the dark. But damage them, and that is the end of the tree. If, however, the roots are healthy, even if the branches are dead, the tree can come back to life again. This is something worth thinking about.'



Love and light!
