Today, in Part 3, we will explore the remarkable qualities that make redwoods truly extraordinary, as well as highlight some achievements in the efforts to preserve these magnificent redwoods like Luna/Beauty. Notably, the two-year-long tree-sit on Luna/Beauty protest finally ended in victory, thanks to the growing community support and the unwavering determination of the rescue team. Through Yaya, Luna/Beauty conveys the love the tree-people hold for the rescue team. “All the tree-people were so touched by the rescue team.” “I admire them and want to express my deepest gratitude to them. They are true heroes. They shouted and cried for us. I felt their love when they hugged me. I also embraced them with my ‘arms.’” Our Most Beloved Supreme Master Ching Hai (vegan) reminds us how extraordinary trees are. “Every grass, like a big, maybe a group of grass, every tree, has a spirit of some kind that dwells in it. Take care of the tree, or that is their dwelling place. They are assigned to stay there and that’s their home. And they do bless the surroundings; that’s their job. […] Now, trees, they do have their magical power, their healing power, loving power, and they do help you with advice and all that even. But you, the deaf, don’t hear anything, see nothing. So, one of your brothers touched a tree and then he felt something from the tree. Now you know what I’m saying is true.”Luna/Beauty also has an important message for her caretaker team and all of us. “The land is loosening up and the ground is shifting rapidly. Since we are rooted deeply to the Earth, we’ve found the structure of the Earth changing. And we are concerned about the landslide. Please be aware that the air is getting drier, much drier than before, which can easily cause fires. Please have water nearby to prevent fires and consider planting more plants and more trees.” Our Most Beloved Supreme Master Ching Hai (vegan) shares with us the blessing power that huge trees possess. However, She reminds us that these majestic giants are defenseless and in need of our love and protection. “They are precious beings who protect us only, who do nothing but protect us. You cannot imagine anything else as sweet as a tree. It’s defenseless, just standing there radiating all kinds of good energy and blessing towards humans and animal [-people]. And we just chop it down like that, without considering. Some trees are so huge. They’ve lived for thousands of years already. Their spirits are strong, strong, strong. Their energy is mighty! They are there to protect the planet, to protect all beings around them. And furthermore, each area has some trees that protect that area, so every area is protected by different trees.”
