🍀 Nature's pharmacy

[NightHawk999]

I am very interested in learning more about natural medicines, drugs, and herbs that have been time tested and used for generations. I feel that many of these drugs and treatments have been lost, ignored, or purposely buried.

Is it true that Willow bark is a natural pain killer if you chew on the inner bark of the tree?

The Caduceus of Mercury has become a common medical symbol in the Health care sector.

One theory is that it used to represent a stick to wind parasites around in order to pull them out of the body.

Another theory is the snake venom had medicinal purposes, and or pharmocological affects.

My one friends said he observed a Yogi in a remote forest mountain area in India trying to collect a wild cobra in a basket to take it to the temple (dedicated to cobras). At one point the man poured water into the cap of the container and let the cobra drink the water from the cap while he was holding the cap in his hand! then the yogi took a sip from the same cap. Then the yogi picked up the snake and pit it in the basket. My friend asked him why he drank from the same cap as the snake, and the yogi said it helped make him immune to the cobra bites…

I did not know that Horse racers in China and America have been busted for injecting their race horses with cobra venom, very fascinating.

At the end of this video they talk about the reseach that is being done with Copperhead venom, and how it may help destroy cancer cells and tumors.

Getting High Injecting Snake Venom

I dont recommend anyone repeat the things done in this video. But I do find it mindblowing that there are so many unique forms of medicine that many people never hear about.

I have heard of Doctors using Bee stings to help slow the progression of parkinsons disease.

Please share any plants, herbs, animals, unique medical treatments, or anything else that uses the gifts of mother nature to help heal, prevent sickness, and promote wellness.

@Bianca_Aga , I started this thread last year, not to many people seemed interested.

I originally posted this earlier today on “Article about Psychedelics”, but having watched 30 mins of this video its a really interesting lovely interview for understanding somebody’s “way in” to their spiritual path using plants. Aubrey comes across as having a lot of experience. And i remember this “Nature’s Pharmacy” thread you started, and i do have some more “Plant world” & “Nature Spirit” literature i could share here at a later stage.

I was 1st drawn to this picture that looked interesting.

And a link to this video im currently watching. i think you’ll like.

Looking forward to reading about them. I have some more to post about as well.

I liked it showing the NA spirits, especially the one in the tree.

@Bianca_Aga

you spoilt my surprise! Where i was taking my thread.

I trained as a Waldorf School teacher, biodynamic farming and the like in the 1970s. At one school I worked at we paired with fairies and other spirits in our garden.

Ive not heard of before but sounds interesting.

@_Barry

That sounds amazing! What was that experience with fairies like?

After i read the Findhorn book early this year, i applied same techniques in my garden. Our climate is cold and windy. I was shocked when my veg growing went ballistic!
This photo is just one small sprouting broccoli plant grew to six foot high, produced 100s of flowers (covered with bees)that became these 1000s of seeds inside seedpods.
Funny thing though… it became so heavy i had to tie supports, waited for seedheads to ripen with intention to collect, but we had a storm after this photo and all the seeds flew everywhere. Next year wouldn’t surprise me if theres a field of broccoli

[Bianca_Aga]

@NightHawk999 … Just finished watching all 3 videos you posted. (Lots homework). All very different. I like the 2nd one, another Aubrey Marcus. Did you watch the his video i posted? Have you seen his videos before?

Video 2. The experience of participant Max McCoy seeing a golden Buddha and the Dragon man also seeing the Buddha sounded like my experience i told you about.

@Bianca_Aga

The teacher took us into a deep meditation and i saw a huge massive golden Buddha filling the sky emanating rays of light from his forehead.

It makes me think of the Lotus Sūtra where 140,000 plus their 1000’s of followers sat at Vulture Peak

@NightHawk999

During a gathering at Vulture Peak, Shakyamuni Buddha goes into a state of deep meditative absorption (samadhi), the earth shakes in six ways, and he brings forth a ray of light from the tuft of hair in between his eyebrows (ūrṇākośa) which illuminates thousands of buddha-fields in the east.

And if we were witnessing a past life (being just a following then).

Did you see this in the fire in video 2 ?

@NightHawk999

Never done before but its on my bucket list

If i did it id want to in the Amazon forest where the Ayahuasca Deva lives. After watching Aubrey with his 100s of psychedelic experiences shows the importance of the right Shaman.

Loved reading this!

I think the more you open the more you realize there is a spirit or soul essence more things than most people would believe.

Science I think is slowly catching up to this realization. And if there is measurable communication taking place on the physical level, it begs the question what is truely going on on the energetic and spiritual levels?:

In one of the Ayauasca videos I watched, it said part of the ceremony was communicating with the tree spirit. Pretty cool.

Very cool, can you sare the technique(s) you learned to commune with them?

I did not know broccoli looked so beautiful:

One of my favorite vegtibles, if not the favorite.

I am not sure, I dont think so, still catching up on all the homework

@Bianca_Aga

Video 2. The experience of participant Max McCoy seeing a golden Buddha and the Dragon man also seeing the Buddha sounded like my experience i told you about.

Very cool synchronicity. I definitely think these entheogens have a place on the spiritual path, but I think they require a lot of prep work before hand (Shadow work, meditation, etc).

@Bianca_Aga

If i did it id want to in the Amazon forest where the Ayahuasca Deva lives. After watching Aubrey with his 100s of psychedelic experiences shows the importance of the right Shaman.

The Amazon would be my preference too, however I would consider doing it closer to home, if the setting was in a forest and close to nature. Yes I think a qualified and reputable shaman is the most important part.

I would not want to do the experience in a group setting, it would have to be mono y mono with the Shaman, or with a few close friends I trusted and the Shaman. I think others bad trip, and bad energy can significantly harm your trip and expereince. Choose your flock wisely.

[Bianca_Aga]

@NightHawk999 Very interesting 2 videos! In the 1st video i flinched when the knife cut the root tip Their worm like crawl lost from the “decapitated” i noted the Scientist labelled their experiments.

How extraordinary the experiments to see if trees help each other out!

@NightHawk999

I think the more you open the more you realize there is a spirit or soul essence more things than most people would believe.

Totally agree!

if there is measurable communication taking place on the physical level, it begs the question what is truely going on

After reading Penny’s true story about the plants and elemental’s at her farm, had me questioning the living in my garden.

In the 2nd video was shocked about the realisation of how important a mother tree in the forest supports the young, usually the tree chopped down, then the forest dwindles.

Things like talking to them, setting aside special places, stories and visualizations. 50 years ago, sorta forget stuff. . .
