Editors' note: From observing a flower and the spreading of its seeds you can receive a great understanding. As described in a verse of Omar Khayyam, the rose laughs, not worried about its own death because it knows it is part of the cycle of life and will never really die. Treasure springs from the rose, but it must first be thrown onto the garden for this to occur. Where the truth falls and takes root is just the play of God. The seeds fall indiscriminately and whether they grow or not is of no consequence. From a spiritual point of view we must prepare the ground, be ready to receive the message. We must be receptive to our spirit, give it a chance, because we also have the choice of stifling it.
