I walked among the redwoods and came upon two ancient trees leaning toward each other. A fire long ago had burnt out a heart-shaped cavern at the base of these trees, creating a meditation chamber in which I sat. I called forth the consciousness of the redwoods, and was visited by a most ancient and wise spirit being. She told me how they were guardians of the planet, having watched the evolution of civilization for the last 2,000 years. She spoke of their distress caused by our violent industrialization, and gave to me a gift a deep and peaceful opening of wisdom and compassion in my heart.
