The Spiritual Significance of Flowers

The Mother: 'Flowers speak to us when we know how to listen to them.. It is a subtle and fragrant language. As if to provide a key to this language, She identified the significances of 880+ flowers. In this book, these flowers and their meanings are presented in the light of her vision and experience. For each flower in Part 1, the following details are given: the Mother's significance, her comment on the significance, the botanical name, and the colour or colours of the flower. Relevant quotations from the works of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother accompany many flower-significances as an aid to understanding them. For most flowers there is a colour photograph to facilitate identification. This reference volume contains indexes, glossaries, descriptions of the flowers and other information. There are three indexes : an Index of the Mother's Significances, an Index of Botanical Names and an Index of Common Names.
