| Check out the website concerning a study done on how plants | |
| react to the sound of a caterpillar chomping away. | |

| Yeast is a not a plant or an animal; but I once had a very | |
| strange experience with yeast. Someone was putting bread into | |
| an oven, and my mind made a psychic connection. I could hear | |
| lots of tiny screams. I had no idea at first what I was hearing | |
| since there was nothing around I could be hearing with my | |
| physical ears. Then I figured it out that I was hearing with my | |
| "other ears" and it was the yeast dying. | |
| I once read some uncooked plants seem to enjoy being eaten, at | |
| least by humans -- and it may vary from human to human or plant | |
| to plant. They are dying in one way, at a low level of | |
| awareness; but they are being incorporated into a higher form of | |
| consciousness -- one which can be aware of God even. If people | |
| pray and are grateful to God when they eat, they are helping | |
| build a bridge between God and plants. The plants are becoming | |
| part of the vessels of God. | |

| [font=trebuchet ms]I think I shall be more diligent about giving | |
| thanks before eating. Never thought of things in quite that | |
| way. But it makes sense. | |
| btw, the apple tree I blessed is the only one without the | |
| invading scale insects. Grew apples for the first time after I | |
| blessed it, and is producing well again this year.[/font] | |

| Yes, I honestly believe in the power of blessings in the name of | |
| the Lord toward many things around us. I bless our food | |
| regularly, and bless the bees, but I admit that I dont ask God's | |
| blessing on all our plants. I guess I should do more, its no | |
| doubt part of our responsibility as stewards of the earth. | |
| Yes Nancy, I believe all life has some form of consciousness, | |
| just not like ours. Some perhaps only a group consciousness. | |
| But as Kerry says, the energy of life cannot be destroyed just | |
| like any scientist will tell you concerning energy or matter, | |
| only changed. What its changed into can be better or worse. | |
| Some deep stuff, huh? | |

| [font=trebuchet ms]I guess "you are what you eat" works the | |
| other way around, too. [/font] | |
