European Beech

(Fagus sylvatica)

Bad Endorf, Deutschland

Now we are getting to the northern climes of this winterly caravan route: in Germany, on the edge of the grove south-east of Hofham in Bad Endorf next to the well-known Chiemgau-core Rosenheim we have applied by a copper beech for a Silent Visit. This European Beech (Fagus sylvatica) with a circumference of estimated 7.6 meters, a height of 37 meters and a ripe old age of about 280 years is a splendid example. While this beauty is nestled comfortably in her deciduous and needle-proned neighborhood in summer, she juts out her extremely straightforward, distinctive character with a lush crown unmistakably apparent in the wintertime.

The Black Poplar (Populus nigra) is a deciduous tree species in the family of the pasture plants. Tall and narrow it is stretching the head into the sky and is well known for it’s characteristic shape. The Black Poplar places high demands on light and heat, as well as soils with good nutrient and water supply. Therefore you meet them mostly as a river guide in the temperate areas of Europe. Like all poplars and the black poplar grows very quickly, their wood is very soft and smooth. The species Populus nigra has become very rare.

From time immemorial, the poplar is valued for their medicinal properties and is used as a tea, ointment or oil. It has the property “standstill” and related conditions, symptoms and diseases to solve and to encourage the “river of life” again.

World Meditations with Trees

On the route of the caravan honorable Tree visits to old, large and important trees will be made. Wherever it is possible meditations with the trees will take place in order to strengthen their original healing powers again. Everyone is invited to participate – whether connected personally on location or in the spirit from distance, at the proposed time, or in a silent moment.

Large-Crowned Oak and young Linden Tree

The first honourable Silent Visit with Meditation and a ceremonial departure takes place in the Gellértpark by an Oak and Linden tree on the 14th of January 2015 at 11.00 o’clock.

Everyone is welcome to participate and initiate the flow of the Golden Light of Universal Love of this route and around the world!

The first force-giving trees on this route is are a large-crowned oak tree and a young linden tree. The oak is a symbol of the community, the joy of life and love. The linden tree With it’s expansive dome the oak seems generously and with an open heart to embrace the whole world and enhances such a feeling in each of us, together.

With this feeling strenghtened by the combined power of these trees the Caravan of the Golden Lifetree starts this route.

And so Smoenjala likes to open the possibillity of a honourable meditation with these trees for all those who wish to connect to this gathering. In this place a pure channel of Universal Love will be opened up. We will connect with the trees as Light-Gates and let the Golden Flow of Universel Love stream through our heart. Then we will carry this Flow of Love down to the element of water. The flowing Danube is connected to all major waters on this planet and so the information of the peaceful coexistence can spread everywhere.

Origin of Mankind

“The Oak asserts in the tradition the first rank among the trees. In Greece and Italy she was considered to be the “first plant” to which the origin of the people has been attributed. The oak was of particular importance by the close relationship with the sky gods. So she was sanctified to Zeus by the Greeks, to Jupiter by the Romans and the thunder and storm god Donar in Germania. The reason for that is probably to be sought in the fact that among the native tree species the oaks are especially often met by lightning.” (http://baum-des-jahres.de/index.php?id=493)
