Critics Review
“This is a rare and splendid book that takes you right into the heart and soul of the world. Read it and be transformed.”
“This is a rare and splendid book that takes you right into the heart and soul of the world. Read it and be transformed.” * Stephan Harding, Ph.D., head of Holistic Science, Schumacher College, UK, and author of Animate Eart *
“The twentieth century was the great age of physics, and the twenty-first is the age of biology. According to Stephen Harrod Buhner, we must interact empathically with the biosphere by opening our perceptual gates to perceive through all body sensations. He deliciously explores music, writing, art, and plants as tools for reclaiming our feeling sense of nature. Plant Intelligence and the Imaginal Realm is a work of heartfelt wisdom written so exquisitely that it took my breath away, a must read for anyone who wants to achieve keystone intelligence–empathic immersion within Earth’s dreaming.” * Barbara Hand Clow, author of Awakening the Planetary Mind: Beyond the Trauma of the Past to a New Er *
“Stephen Harrod Buhner’s The Lost Language of Plants and The Secret Teaching of Plants taught a generation of herbalists to trust our sense that the world was alive and speaking to us. Plant Intelligence and the Imaginal Realm takes us further down that path of remembering and re-enchantment, awakening our capacity to tap directly in to the Gaian mind. Be warned: if you read this book, you will never be the same again.” * Sean Donahue, traditional herbalist and instructor, School of Western Herbal Medicine at Pacific Rim *
“There is much magic, and a wealth of wisdom in this book. It is a wisdom that anyone can come, not only to understand, but to live within. To take this journey is to embrace a great healing, and to release a great burden. The healing answers your deepest longing, I won’t say what the burden is, but you will know it when you let it go.” * The Fall Buyers MetaGuide, September 2014 *
