The Plant Medicine Sutra
That night the bodhisattva awoke…
She found herself surrounded by vines, branches, flowers, roots, sap, essence of the plant world, and the wildness of nature, all supplicating her for a teaching... The bodhisattva spoke: It is you, not I who needs to speak… it is your voice that is needed to awaken the self-centered human species to the vast web of life and love and awareness that is the intimate birthright of us all. Your sap, your juices, your fibers, your chemistry. We ask that all of you speak through and to our species, blood and bone, in a language that is unmistakable... ~ Robert Schrei
