Silent
Language of Flowers |
____I can transmit a state
of consciousness more easily to a
flower than to a man: it is very
receptive, though it does not
know how to formulate its
experience to itself because it
lacks a mind. But the pure
psychic consciousness is
instinctive to it. When,
therefore, you offer flowers to
me their condition is almost
always an index to yours. There
are persons who never succeed in
bringing a fresh flower to me -
even if the flower is fresh it
becomes limp in their hands.
Others, however, always bring
fresh flowers and even revitalise
drooping ones. If your aspiration
is strong your flower-offerings
will be fresh. And if you are
receptive you will be also very
easily able to absorb the message
I put in the flowers I give you.
When I give them, I give you
states of consciousness; the
flowers are the mediums and it
all depends on your receptivity
whether they are effective or
not. |
____When I give flowers, it
is as an answer to the aspiration
coming from the very depths of
your being. It is a need or an
aspiration, it depends upon the
person. It may fill a void or
else give you the impetus to
progress, or it may help you find
the inner harmony in order to
establish peace. |
____ Flowers-are
extremely receptive. All the
flowers to which I have given a
significance receive exactly the
force I put into them and
transmit it. People don't always
receive it because most of the
time they are less receptive than
the flowers, and, they waste the
force that has been put in it
through their unconsciousness and
lack of receptivity. But the
force is there, and the flower
receives it wonderfully.
____I
knew this a very long time ago.
Fifty years ago.... There was
that occultist who later gave me
lessons in occultism for two
years. His wife was a wonderful
clairvoyant and had an absolutely
remarkable capacity - precisely -
of transmitting forces.
____They
lived in Tlemcen. I was in Paris.
I used to correspond with them. I
had not yet met them at all. And
then, one day, she sent me in a
letter petals of the pomegranate
flower, "Divine's
Love". At that time I had
not given the meaning to the
flower. She sent me petals of
pomegranate flowers telling me
that these petals were bringing
me her protection and force.
____Now,
at that time I used to wear my
watch on a chain. Wrist-watches
were not known then or there were
very few. And there was also a
small eighteenth century
magnifying glass... it was quite
small, as large as this
(gesture).... And it had two
lenses, you see, like' all
reading-glasses; there were two
lenses mounted on a small golden
frame, and it was hanging from my
chain. Now, between the two
glasses I put these petals and I
used to carry this about with me
always because I wanted to keep
it with me; you see, I trusted
this lady and knew she had power.
I wanted to keep this with me,
and I always felt a kind of
energy, warmth, confidence, force
which came from that thing.... I
did not think about it, you see,
but I felt it like that. |
____And then, one
day, suddenly I felt quite
depleted, as though a support
that was there had gone.
Something very unpleasant. I
said, "It is strange; what
has happened? Nothing really
unpleasant has happened to me.
Why do I feel like this, so
empty, emptied of energy?"
And in the evening, when I took
off my watch and chain, I noticed
that one of the small glasses had
come off and all the petals were
gone. There was not one petal
left. Then I really knew that
they carried a considerable
charge of power, for I had felt
the difference without even
knowing the reason. I didn't know
the reason and yet it had made a
considerable difference. So it
was after this that I saw how one
could use flowers by charging
them with forces. They are
extremely receptive. |
