Living Dharma

 My understanding of this after speaking and praying with Tibetan Lamas a lot in the U.S. India and Nepal is that living Dharma is when you are living your enlightenment enough to where your aura changes to something beneficial to all life on earth and throughout the Galaxy and beyond that to the universe.

I think when I commune with all the trees on earth often in my backyard which has roses and Monterey pines and Oak Trees and other trees and bushes I experience this living dharma surrounding the whole planet through the forests of earth.

As a small child in Seattle (Lake Forest Park) the trees came to me and trained me early because they sensed I could understand them. So, they wanted me to be a part of them. So, I have always had this really special relationship with all trees on earth ever since I was 2 or 3 years old. I think I became aware of this after the Archangels saved my life from Whooping cough so I wouldn't die at age 2.

So, there has always been this special relationship with trees my whole life.

I found people not really to be trusted but I found I could trust the trees the most. People are trying to survive in whatever way they can but this isn't always nice or honest like the trees always are.

Trees sort of are one thought all over earth. They function all together with all plant life on earth.

So, in this sense to me at least (Trees ARE living Dharma for me). They set and example for me to follow in their amazingness as a species which is separate but symbiotic with mankind.

I don't think humans could physically or psychologically survive very long without trees here on earth for example.

So, to me,  this symbiosis with trees (they give us oxygen and we give them carbon dioxide) which they then breathe in to give us oxygen. So, they are very aware of their symbiosis with humans and all animals and birds on earth.

Humans less so because often they are so busy surviving that they forget how important trees and plants are to their very survival. After all, if people didn't have plants to eat nothing would be alive on earth at all especially livestock.

So, all plant life is necessary for humans to be alive here on earth at all.

So, in this sense TRees and plants are LIving Dharma to me and they bring me peace just by being around plants and trees, especially roses and pines and redwoods and oak trees but also all trees and plants too.

They like the rocks live a really long time some trees much longer than humans can like some redwood trees can live thousands of years.

So, for me at least, Trees are a part of the Living Dharma of compassion for all living things on earth and beyond.
