“Try as a meditation, to be with a stone, a flower or a tree, and you will find that they have consciousness. If you become friend with a tree, you will find that the tree will welcome you as a friend. The tree will be happy to see you.”

Swami Dhyan Giten is an Indian spiritual teacher and author of the late 20th century. He blended Eastern philosophy with practical guidance on meditation and self-realization, emphasizing inner peace and conscious living. His teachings remain accessible through his written works and recorded talks.
