I have already been connected with plants since traveling to Peru. After reading the book, plants actually started to talk to me. And they say good and uefull things and I feel them much more alive and freindly. I also started to use plants mentioned in the book with success. I use by the way Ayahuaska and other plants regularly. I also started to pay attention and recall my dreams.

I really appreciated learning of his work. Well written.

I had already begun working with trees, sort of accidentally, when I came across's Eliot's work. I am convinced that the trees and plants wanted me to have some guidance about how to work with them.

If you hadn't already some knowledge of shamanistic techniques, I think you would find this a strange little book. But this man is really steeped in plant spirit work. I think he has more to offer, and I would like to know more, but he may reserve deeper stuff for his students. Right away I want to read it again.

The book took me down hitherto unknown metaphysical paths. It reinforced my belief in those immortal words of Voltaire, "We must tend our garden." When my bamboo speaks, I can now listen better.

World-view changing. Marvelous.
