To the mineral kingdom belongs the soil, the rocks and such, things that seem “dead” to us but in essence are far from that. Many can “hear” the messages when holding a rock, and many can “see” what when on when standing on soil. This is the most “asleep” of all kingdoms, as if in a constant trance. Thus many people aid their meditations by using crystals and rocks to get them grounded and so on. Rocks do not contain the ego the way we know an ego; rocks just are. The life of a rock extends far beyond the life of a plant or a human.
The plant kingdom is that of plants, trees and flowers. You may have hugged a tree before and “seen” with your third eye what the tree has seen for hundreds or thousands of year. Visions of the past are shared in this way, by a mere hug and alignment with an old and wise tree. Flowers and branches have a lot more life in them than do rocks and such. Leaves blow in the wind, open and close depending on whether it is day or night and so on. Plants are still in a meditative state, in a constant sleep-like trance, moving and swaying with the wind. Plants do not have an ego the way we think of ego. They do not fight for survival by going out to kill. They are here for a while and then they wither. They are here to be food for us and our animals. The life of a tree extends beyond the life of a human.

Tomorrow we’ll talk about part 2: the animal kingdom. Stay tuned.
