Each step of the journey is made by following the heart instead of following the crowd…

~ Henri Bergson

Scientists have discovered that ants, after collecting the grains and seeds that they need for winter, break those seeds down into halves before storing in their nests because breaking them in half keeps them from germinating even through rain and the most perfect germinating conditions.

But scientists were stunned when they discovered that coriander seeds stored in the ant nest were broken down into 4 pieces instead of 2 pieces. After lab research, scientists discovered that a coriander seed will still germinate after being divided into two, but it won’t germinate after it’s divided into four parts. So how do these tiny tiny creatures know all this?

Humans know very little, there’s a lot to learn from other creatures.

Our spiritual journey is not long. It is simply to descend, through a breath of Grace, from the mind to the heart. Find the hidden treasure and discover the Self, not in the angst of division and blame, but in the fragrance of unity.

The scent of this flower is uniquely your own.
