Living Medicine: On Plant Intelligence and Natural Healing
"Every time some new evidence of plant-based intelligence intrudes on my
awareness, it confronts perspectives about the world that I inherited
from my culture or my family or my schooling, and some portion of that
received worldview crumbles, and something new takes its place. The
world is a great deal different than we have been led to believe. In
fact, we know very little about what goes on here. The ancient Athenians
had a word for that moment when some intangible part of ourselves
leaves our bodies and touches a living intelligence in the world:
aisthesis. There is an exchange of soul essence accompanied by a gasp of
recognition, a deep breath, an inspiration." In this compelling
interview Stephen Harrod Buhner shares profound insights into the spirit
and science behind plant intelligence and natural healing.
