Since I started the exhibition on traditional herbal baths in the resource centre, I have been using a lot of the plants from the school Herb Garden as ingredients for my colleagues and students who had come to ask for the herbs. The reception for this exhibition has been very good and as a result a lot of the branches have been cut. Some of my colleagues were getting worried that at the rate people were coming to me to get the herbs, the Herb Garden would be left barren.
Well, I assured them that no matter how much branches I took, new branches would grow back as long as I don't damage the plants. Besides, I also ask my colleagues to bring me the leaves of plants that are growing in their gardens. The Creator of Mankind is really great and he does provide for us as long as we take care not to destroy nature.
The plants in the pictures above are actually growing at the front and also side of a hardware shop in Kampung Simee. The shopowner planted the herbs so that he could give them to people who needed them for medicinal purposes. What a noble guy, right? Believe me when I say that he has given lots and lots of the plants to people and also allowed them to take whatever herbs they want from his 'garden' and yet the plants are all flourishing and growing healthily. As I always say, if we do something with a sincere heart to help others, then the Powers above would provide assistance. Sooo ... worry not my friends for the plants in the school Herb Garden, they will indeed grow well for the Divine Beings know that I am using them for the benefit of mankind.
