"Heal­ing with the clean, pure, beau­ti­ful agents of na­ture is surely the one method of all which ap­peals to most of us"– Dr. Ed­ward Bach, 1936.

In 1980 I came across the book writ­ten by Dorothy Maclean, ti­tled "to hear the an­gels sing. An Odyssey of co-cre­ation with the De­vic King­dom – a Find­horn book. Eileen and Pe­ter Caddy and Dorothy Maclean all fol­lowed a dis­ci­plined spir­i­tual prac­tice for many years be­fore they came to live at Find­horn, and they con­tin­ued their reg­u­lar med­i­ta­tion times when they came to live at the car­a­van park.

In May 1963 Dorothy Maclean re­ceived an in­sight from within as she med­i­tated:. . . The forces of na­ture are some­thing to be felt into, to be reached out to. One of the jobs for you as my free child is to sense the Na­ture forces such as the wind, to per­ceive its essence and pur­pose for me, and to be pos­i­tive and har­mo­nize with that essence.

When Dorothy shared this in­sight with Pe­ter, his idea was to ap­ply to their fledg­ling gar­den what Dorothy learned from the forces of na­ture. Dorothy then re­ceived this in­sight:
Yes, you can co­op­er­ate in the gar­den. Be­gin by think­ing about the na­ture spir­its, the higher the overlight­ing na­ture spir­its, and tune into them. That will be so un­usual as to draw their in­ter­est here. They will be over­joyed to find some mem­bers of the hu­man race ea­ger for their help. An­gels, devas and el­e­men­tal be­ings.

Dorothy first at­tuned to the gar­den pea. As her com­mu­ni­ca­tion with the forces of na­ture de­vel­oped, Dorothy re­al­ized that she was in con­tact not with the spirit of an in­di­vid­ual plant, but with the 'over-light­ing' be­ing of the species, which was the con­scious­ness hold­ing the ar­che­typal de­sign of the species and the blue­print for its high­est po­ten­tial. She was ex­pe­ri­enc­ing a form­less en­ergy field for which there is no word.

The clos­est word to con­vey the joy and pu­rity that these be­ings em­anated was the in­ac­cu­rate word 'an­gel' (which in the west is full of the form), and her first thought was to call them that. How­ever, the San­skrit term 'De­va', mean­ing 'shin­ing one' seemed more ac­cu­rate and freer of cul­tural as­so­ci­a­tions. In prac­tice, she uses both words, al­though nei­ther word is ad­e­quate. Pe­ter and Dorothy ap­plied the in­sights of the med­i­ta­tions to their work in the gar­den, and through this, the Find­horn gar­den flour­ished. These were the first steps in the Find­horn Com­mu­ni­ty's co-cre­ation with na­ture.

This in­sight brought me closer to the ways the use of plants in med­i­cine was used, for I al­ready knew the old treat­ments my grand­mother and mother used when we were ill, like us­ing an onion un­der the bed, giv­ing some sam­bal to as­sist when we had a cold. So I started in 1980 with a study of a year about Nat­ural Heal­ings, which in­cluded the Home­o­pathic way, the Fytho-ther­apy, plant med­i­cine, and piqued my in­ter­est even more.

So when I got ill I went to see a nat­ural healer and re­ceived my first med­i­c­i­nal plant ex­tracts to get bet­ter. To check if it was­n't just a placebo ef­fect it had on my, the dif­fer­ent plants were also given to our chil­dren and an­i­mals. Now you can say a lot about the in­sights a tod­dler can have, yet they can­not sug­gest them­selves be healed as we can do as adults.

For me, the heal­ing ways of plants and herbs throughout my years were al­ways con­firmed by the re­sults tested by my home­o­pathic doc­tor, who was also able to test my en­ergy lev­els us­ing a vega tester, by the acupunc­ture points in the hands.

In the last cou­ple of years, it seems to me that the gift mother na­ture is pre­sent­ing to us, is al­most lost be­cause of the way so­ci­ety in the west­ern world evolved. You can see in the east­ern coun­tries that Ayurvedic med­i­cine is more ac­cus­tomed and some­times the only way to deal with ill­ness.

In west­ern so­ci­ety us­ing herbs and plants are al­most com­pletely dis­ap­peared in the mas­sive in­dus­try of Phar­macy. I be­lieve for every ill­ness there is a cure, given freely by na­ture in­stead of all the chem­i­cal med­ica­tion. And don't get me wrong, I will never say stop us­ing med­i­cine given to you by a spe­cial­ist, yet see if you can find a way to bal­ance your body as well with the heal­ing essence of cer­tain plants and herbs.

So Find­horn for me was not just a place of co­op­er­a­tion with na­ture and el­e­men­tals, it also showed me how con­nected we are with na­ture and our bod­ies are al­ways ready to use the heal­ing en­ergy that they can pro­vide if we know the proper way how to use them.

It was a book that con­firmed some deep know­ing within my soul, and I am ever so grate­ful for be­ing part of this great or­gan­ism, that's called Mother Earth and we are her in­hab­i­tants, So we need to nour­ish and take care of her, for in the pre­sents and gifts she has to of­fer we are in her debt as well to be con­scious and car­ing to­wards na­ture and all of cre­ation. For we are all as One.

And so it will be done
