T.N.G. SIGNS OF THE TIMES - N.M. October 27, 2000  (#88)

Greetings from Russell's Remnant:                                                                                  www.oocities.org/dkone_us

In the April 1995 newsletter, the following was included about plants:

            The vegetable kingdom is the outstanding contribution of our Earth to the general solar plan.  It is the only kingdom in which three rays have finally succeeded in coalescing, infusing and blending the 2nd, 4th, and 6th.  This vegetable kingdom is more evolved along its own peculiar lines than any other.

            The mystery of the second ray is found to be hidden in the significance of the "perfume" of flowers.  

            The vegetable kingdom has the quality of "attractiveness" expressed in color and its highest form of activity is demonstrated by the perfume of its highest forms of life.  The perfume is connected with its sex life, which has group purpose and which calls to its aid the  initiating wind and the insect world.  The very nature of perfume is to affect those agencies which will produce the spreading and the continuity of the life of the vegetable kingdom and the most evolved of its forms have beauty and perfume.

            Esoterically, the vegetable kingdom is the transmitter and the transformer of the vital pranic fluid to the other forms of life on our planet.  That is its unique and divine function.  

            "Disease" has its roots primarily in maladjustment and misdirected force in the vegetable kingdom; this affects the animal and mineral and subsequently the human.  It will be in this kingdom in nature that the attention of the investigators must be focused, and the eradication of disease will eventually find its solution.

            Remember that we owe a lot to the plant kingdom.  Plants provide food and medicine for the higher kingdoms.  They provide beauty and perfume.  They take our waste material (carbon dioxide) and turn it into life (oxygen).  They provide an example for the human kingdom.  They meditate - they look toward God (Sun) all day.

The following statements were taken from the July 23, 1998,  (#60) newsletter.  Astrology and plants used in homeopathy can be of great benefit to a person’s spiritual growth.

Homeopathic remedies are spiritualized medicines.

The vital force is the true curative power.  No remedy can cure disease, it can only at best enable the vital force to function properly again.

Homeopaths always stress the importance of assessing the totality of the person.  All conditions are the manifestation of a single "disease," an internal physiological disorder that is unique to the individual.  The various recurrent symptoms people experience throughout their lives evolve from one enduring constitutional weakness.

Morya states that the homeopath that uses the best flowers will have the best results.

When you bring together the same anatomy of the herbs and the same anatomy of the illness into one order - this simile gives you an understanding of the way in which you shall heal.     Paracelsus

Find the thread that runs through the patient's life.

Homeopathy is the second most widely used form of medicine in the world according to the World Health Organization.  Chinese medicine is #1, herbalism is #3 and conventional medicine is #4.  Had homeopathy met with intelligent response, it would probably be #1 now.
