Flowers have been part of the religious approach of man’s turning towards God. They
have inspired poets and thinkers alike. Ayurveda and Homoeopathy has used them
A
effectively in changing certain states of consciousness that lead to diseases. Their secrets
have been revealed by the Mother through an inner and intimate contact with a number
of flowers, disclosing their spiritual vibration. As revealed by the Mother, flowers
represent the psychic element in the vegetal world.
Yet there is a so much more that awaits our discovery. The book under review, titled
New Earth explores the deep mystical element in the flower world. But it is not just
information that the book provides but a meditation, a vibration of beauty and love, of
harmony and joy, a vibration of certain spiritual truths that are lost to the modern mind
engaged with the surface analysis of things.
To say that this is a book about flowers is to say the least about it. It is a book but one
that helps the reader into a deeper living communion with the truth of flowers and the
essential vibration contained in them. As one flips through the pages, one is greeted with
pictures and photographs of floral designs and patterns arranged in the form of mandalas.
From time to time, we see some deep and profound wisdom pouring forth in the form of
words that suddenly awaken us to a deeper vision and supplement our understanding
with a deeper insight arising from the mystical core of life. It is as if the heart of a mystic
had come in contact with the secret soul of a flower and the joy of this sudden contact
had brought forth a knowledge that was concealed within the depths.
The book is indeed a treat to the sense and soul alike. The quality of photographs and the
overall printing is as beautiful as the theme itself. It is indeed a collector’s edition, a rarity
and a wonder among books that come once in a lifetime.
