The Secret Teachings of Plants reveals the use of direct perception in understanding Nature, medicinal plants, and the healing of human disease. The text explores the techniques used by indigenous and Western peoples to learn directly from the plants themselves, including those of Henry David Thoreau, Goethe, and Masanobu Fukuoka, author of The One Straw Revolution and contains leading-edge information on the heart as an organ of perception.
Readers will gain the tools necessary to gather information directly from the heart of Nature, to directly learn the medicinal uses of plants, to engage in diagnosis of disease, and to understand the soul-making process that such deep connection with the world engenders.
