What the tree said...  

Sunday, Skyride, then off to hike a hidden(ish)boulder/Aspens/Ferns/Birds/Flowers/Insets spot.

Last Sunday laid down on boulder for amazing energy transfer. This week, looking to lay out on boulder, got stopped by a kewl cavie rock formation, with perfect pine needle ground cover over a boulder edge with the edge poking out and up like a pillow. Contemplated laying down.. hmm.. Lots of needles to brush off my coat, maybe go to clean boulder.. Suddenly from Tree... Lay down here. Ahh. Ok.
Spread out coat,(going for comfey), looking back up at tree, over left shoulder at green path through boulders, over right shoulder at Aspens, back up at tree... needles brown... hmm it's dead.

From tree: You think I'm dead and that disturbs you?
Me: Ah.. well... mom passed over, I'm here to connect with nature fairies and to heal.. so well..
Tree: There is no death. There's existence, there's form. You are morning my going out of the world of form, yet what is my form doing? It is continuing, it is breaking down, fertilizing the earth, fertilizing the seeds that will again grown into this type of form. It's all continuing. You are looking at a stage. This is return stage. Existence is a gift, form is a gift, it is not what we are. We are that which inhabits form. We come out of pre-form, exist inside of form, go back to pre-form. You cannot morn that which is the gift, it never belonged to us, so we have no rights of calling it OURS, MINE, when it moves onto a new stage, it is not something of OURS that is taken away. The gift is becoming something else, and we are still US. We are the energy that fills the seed. Stage 1. Seed grows into tree. Stage 2. Tree flourishes and sends out seeds. Stage 3. Tree ends growth cycle and begins decay/replenishment cycle. Stage 4. You are observing Stage 4. At stage 4 we, the energy, withdrawal from the tree and go back, having experience form.

Where people get in trouble is that they believe they are the form. They get stuck putting their focus on the gift and then curse when the gift leaves and when the gift moves through it's stages. This causes them insanity and great sorrow.

Me: Well... do you not leave at stage 4.. do you linger next to your form??? Since you are talking and all?

Tree: 'quiet'

Me: Hey wait! There's still some green branches.. You are still alive!

Tree: *chuckles*
