It
is perhaps because flowers transmit this sacred energy that
worship of the divine with an offering of flowers is a custom
among many cultures and religions of the world.
Have
you noticed how different it is when you walk into gardens
around temples, churches and other places of worship? The
vibrations and the energy fields arounds such places are
so different. There is a stillness, a feeling of great peace
that seeps into you.
Serenity.
Tranquility. These may be some adjectives that come to your
mind when you step into such spaces.
This
weekend, feel the surreal experience of visiting such a
flower garden.
Before
you decide to go visiting remember to brief everyone in
the family about the sacredness of such a place.
If
you have children who are very noisy - tell them to be still
and silent for just the time that you explore the place.
Make sure that your pets too remain still for the short
time that you explore the place.
It
is only when the mind is calm and silent that the divine
energies start communicating. That is why, learning the
art of meditation is a necessary pre-requisite for those
who wish to be initiated into the path of divinity.
Mystics
and psychics around the world have often held the view that
flowers have a receptivity to take up one's psychic consciousness.
It
is believed that when flowers are given by a holy person,
those flowers transmit a positive healing energy to the
recipient.
Different
flowers are associated with different emotional states too.
The use of the Bach flower remedies are based on this principle.
For
the Divine Mother of the Aurobindo Ashram in Pondicherry,

Her followers say that a dynamic healing force was transmitted
by her through the flowers that she gave.
