Thank you for enhancing my respect for trees and plants and herbs! Here is a centuries old tree prayer from India's antiquity -- धत्ते भरं कुसुमपत्र फलावलीनां घर्मव्यथां वहति शीतभवां रुजां च / यो देहमर्पयति चाऽन्य सुखस्य हेतोः तस्मै वदान्यगुरवे तरवे नमस्ते // dhattē bharaṁ kusumapatra phalāvalīnāṁ gharmavyathāṁ vahati śītabhavāṁ rujāṁ ca / yō dēhamarpayati cā’nya sukhasya hētōḥ tasmai vadānyaguravē taravē namastē // I bow my head in respect to you, O, Tree! You are my revered guru In how you generously bear the weight of leaves and flowers and fruits For the sake of others, How you bear the hardship of the summer heat And the pains of the winter afflictions, For the sake of others, And how you offer your body and life at the end For the well-being of others. Jagannaatha Pandita (India, 15th Century C.E.)
Beautiful video, however just to highlight the point about acorns; if you want to use them as a food source, please don’t give them to animals without first realising that they can be highly poisonous/fatal to some animals, farming livestock including horses.
Thanks I really enjoyed it. I am a American and some of your phrases are different. The trees we have the same trees a lot most of them. Enjoyed it hope you got more or maybe your own website. Gingdah 🚶💀
Thanks for sharing and great presentation. You got a new subscription. It is nice seeing/hearing someone talking about medicinal herbs outside of marijuana.
Silver, first one is viburnum, second - linden, third - oak, fourth - ash, fifth - elderberry, sixth - hawthorn (she also talked aout dandelions, by the way, the thorns on the hawthorns make really good toothpicks!).
