B: Blue Eagle, thanks you for your reply last week. It was really nice and comforting to hear that things are simpler than we imagine, and that a respectful attitude to Nature leads to
easier life! However, some people, who are aware of this need to tend the earth with care and respect, have already tried the method you suggest to get rid of insects, namely to cultivate special
plants that have a beneficial action on the problem, but without success! Does that mean there is still something else to do, or maybe the land there has been too mistreated, and it will take a
long whilst before it comes back to its proper balance?
BE: We are all aware that the land has often been abused for many generations. We may also understand that the land is like a living, conscious, breathing,
feeling entity and that all the plants, stones and animals are parts of this organism. So when aware of past mistakes on the part of past generations or even ourselves, we can start
reconciliation, as with any being, by offering apologies. This may seem strange, but it's very real. Nature will hear what you have to say, not so much the words but in truth the feelings behind
the words. By apologizing, you are recognizing the hurt and stating clearly that you now wish to offer solutions and healing to that hurt. Thus, all of nature will immediately want to help you
with the healing. As all beings are different, all environments are also different. You will then want to listen and hear what nature has in mind to heal the environment. This is not complicated,
just relax and trust your feelings. Maybe a bird will come. If you know what trees that bird likes, then plant some and they will come and nest there. Not only will they eat a lot of insects, but
they will also rejoice in the beauty of your garden and delight you with their beautiful songs. Or maybe some other solution will come. There are many ways to correct the problem, the important
thing is to work with nature. Thus the term co-creation is understood, working with the world to make it a paradise for all life. All of nature, especially Man, is the manifested physical thought
of Great Spirit. All of it obeys the same laws and one of those laws states that all in nature has a purpose and a meaning. All of nature will obey Man, who out of all beings in this universe is
the One chosen by the Great Mystery to co-create the world. The world for all times has been intended as a blissful and beauteous garden of infinite wonders. For a time we strayed from our
communion with nature, the manifest thought of Great Spirit, but we have now seen the suffering, disease, wars, suicide, meaningless stressful life styles, etc., that stem from being lost. We do
not need anyone or anything to come back home because home is life itself. Our will and the courage to examine the meaning of life and then take our destiny into our own hands will liberate us
from bondage and strife. Thus we will heal our gardens and family domains for our happiness and the happiness and well being of the children of our children.
Peace and light
Blue Eagle
