"The Secret Life of Plants" (video)

Gaby De Wilde (Wisdom Quarterly)

(LINK) "Secret Life of Plants" 1979 documentary by Walon Green. See full movie

"The Secret Life of Plants" is perhaps the best way to start learning about life -- how all life forms are interconnected and interdependent. When people sense "We are all ONE," it may be because they are tapping into the matrix or source of information plants use to read and respond to our intentions and their environment.

As hard as it is for us to conceive of in normal consciousness, most of us can probably understand it in terms of heightened states of consciousness or a spontaneous intuition of our connectedness. [Editor's note: Internally-produced DMT from our pineal gland seems to play the key role uniting us with plants.]

This is a beautiful documentary, but its length obscures the valuable point it makes. I cannot think of anything more important.


BBC clip on plant intelligence
  • There is much more to learn about the biology of the brain and the "mind" and its mysterious abilities. The latter is capable of much more than mere thinking. There is nonlocal consciousness, feeling, and communicating that even plants participate in.

This video inspires a search for other documented science on the amazing abilities of plants and the nature of consciousness. There is an annual conference on the scientific study of consciousness we never hear about in the popular media. It is as if the mainstream forgot to share with us the wonder of what is known and possible.

This video is based on the little known 1973 book of the same name by Peter Tompkins and Christopher Bird. Cleve Baxter while not credited for it actually did the work for the book. He developed much of the current knowledge on lie detectors and EEG machines.

Other interesting things he did involved people: For example, he took mouthwash and white blood cells from a cheek swab. He then put it in a solution connected to electrodes and an EEG monitor. He then took an intimate acquaintance equipped with a traveling video camera. Any time something emotionally stimulating happened to that person, whether fearful or at the other end of the spectrum loving, the disembodied cells responded. And it did not matter how far away the person was.

  • God and Buddhism (wri.leaderu.com)
    It may have occurred to the reader that in our discussion thus far no mention has been made of God or an eternal deity. It is clear that Gautama, the founder of Buddhism, did not claim to be divine. He claimed to be the one to point the way to Nirvana, but it was up to each individual to find his own way there. The concept of a personal God does not fit into the Buddhist system of religion. Today there are many sects of Buddhism. Many differ in their concept of the divine and of Buddha. In general, Buddhists are pantheistic [god is everywhere in everything] in their view of God. Many view God as an impersonal force which is made up of all living things and holds the universe together. Here are what some of the most prominent of scholars say of the Buddhist view of God.

After watching The Secret Life of Plants, I had a question pop into my mind, what sort of consciousness do GMO plants have? How do non-GMO plants react to GMO plants of the same species. A very interesting path for some research.
