Talking to Trees

[domokun1212]

TS what type of trees u prefer to talk to? Which specie more chatty? How was your conversation with the Christmas tree?

no I dont differentiate by species. Its more of a gut feeling. Its like you meeting a new person, but without words.

last time got one hong kong movie something about the a murder happened in the forest then the trees became the witness. some devices were attached to the trees to “read” their statements or something.

what was the result in the movie

you ever have experienced this feeling I'm talking about?

 

[ouroboroso]

that makes alot of sense. I'm very glad there's mirroring of sentiment here.

the feeling was much stronger when I was a child. It would well up and grip me; I would get scared by it, but I wouldn't run away, either. Its like they understood, too.

Now as an adult I still do it from time to time but maybe the accumulation of worldly 尘埃 makes it harder to sense 'the humming' again.

Yes, a child is better able to "commune" with the trees because the mind is purer/clearer and less fettered.

Scientific studies have shown how plants grow better/faster when you sing to them. However what science has probably misunderstood is that the enhancement is due to the sound waves. I believe it is instead due to the positive / happier mind-state that one has when singing, and plants can pick up that positive energy. The heightened growth is its response to that positivity.

its probably that. The exchange of energy/consciousness. I do believe it, I don't need the science.

...me not running away, it felt like they wanted me to stay. There was a compulsion to stay. So I did. I would talk to them about how I felt. I'm not sure they understood some parts; after all thinking back now, it would be mostly just childish chittering about human concepts like school.... Sometimes I feel like there was amusement, or even consoling from them when I was sad.

' ..I have to go now. I'll come back and see you all again! '

no leh. I never had concepts like that. But looking it up its like a big well of related information. I'll have to go read up on it

Perhaps just to add another dimension to this... the trees directly share the consciousness of the planet because they are physically rooted in the ground. Essentially when you were communicating with the trees back then, you were likely tapping into the planet's collective consciousness i.e. you were talking to Mother Earth herself. Animals share in the collective consciousness as well but in another way. The way we share in the collective consciousness is through the energy encoded within the electromagnetic fields of the planet.

If you completely open your mind to the trees, you will probably experience a sensation that is vaguely similar to "returning home".

@XuishX

you ever felt this before? not exactly talking about spirits per se but this kind of 'energy'. Curious about your input

yes!!!!!
' I'm back. I came back to see you all !'

Familiar. Comforting. I'll actually speak it out loud. Then I'll have periods of silence and allow myself to feel it again.

this reminds me of those mountain climbers/ free rock climbers/ ourdoorsmen. There is video, documentaries, books about it. Most of it is technical of course, but some of it is more.. spiritual? lack of a better word

'Why do you choose to climb the mountains?'
'I am one with the mountains..I belong here.'
'Aren't you afraid of having an accident or dying here?'
'That's alright. I'm living and connected to the life. If it happens, it happens.'

talking to trees is a new level of crazy...
heng I prefer to talk to my chou chou

Indeed, the ancients actually drew immense strength from the trees and the land. They had the awareness that no matter what they were struggling with in life, there was a greater power that they were connected to and were a part of. A reassuring solidarity and strength that they could harness at any point in time.

like this?

I used to go hiking to decompress, standing in the forested area got a calm and soothing energy. I just like to spend time walking under tall trees. I used to ask people around me but most people said they just feel hot and itchy.

talking to tree or talking to hantu

Plants and trees, are sentient beings. It is normal for you to feel their energy and to communicate with them.

Do you know that birds chirping in the morning is to wake them from their sleep as well? And also, some music with similar frequencies and vibrations to the sound of bird chirping a can actually increase the rate of growth for plants and trees?

its like a wifi signal of sorts, need correct code/ frequency to access lol
yes i have been with people like that too. They can't seem to feel it at all.
Actually much rather be alone if I'm going 'into the forest'
Other people there is like interrupt the connection nia

i never think so much.
I can only 'feel' the energy and its not malicious or harmful.

the only time I ever felt that was one time in pulau ubin.
When I went down an unmarked trail and skidded down a slope
I landed beside some malay graves. There was an abandoned van as well. I peered into it but there was nothing. I even took a photo of it, its somewhere on my old harddisk
Then I got the growing sensation of not being welcome there. I quickly left.
