PLANTS ARE THINKERS
Thinking plants? How can plants think since they have no nerves, while to think a creature needs a brain, centre of nerves.
Unlike animals and humans,
plants have no nerves and have no brains. Plants cannot feel temperatures,
pains and comfortable feeling and they “cannot” think.
Although plants have no brains
it is often found in many million cases that plants behave as if they
have this important organs when they face normal and as well as in critical
conditions.
This amazing phenomenons are directed by plants' DNA. DNA is a physiological commander of what
have to be done by the plants' cells and is a genetically passed on trough generations.
For evample root cells know that they
have to go downward to where the nutritions are located. At the tip of the
roots the cells build hard cells to penetrate
soils. Shoots grow upward to the light so that the leaves can assimilate water
and carbondioxide inside the leaves.
With the sunshine as the catalyst, leaves
make this gas and water into sugar for their energy. Plants make their leaves
thin and broad so that they can have larger surfaces to be exposed to air thus
assimilations become more abundant.
Rice Plants (Oryza sativa) Lifted Their Filling Panicles
to Avoid Being Submerged In Water.
An experimental rice plant were
swept by a flush flood. Then the crops were fallen and drowned in a shallow
water. Four
days afterward the filling panicles
which formerly were drowned, were uplifted by the stem thus avoiding the grains and panicles from
rotting. The rice has an emergency actions to save the grains.
How this could happened? Who teach
the rice to do so?
Picture 1: The filling rice panicles were uplifted by the stems avoiding the grains from rotting.
Corn which Were Planted Without Bunds Grew More Adventive Roots.
In a trial where corns were planted without
bund along its plant rows, grew more adventive roots fom the first, second and third lowest nodes.
Bund is soil mound made along the plant row. In this trial some plots of corn
were not bunded as tradionally conducted by farmers but using applications of paraquat and glifosate herbicides to control weeds.
Originally the purpose of
the trial was to compare economic benefit between weeding using herbicides
compared to traditional weeding i. e. using small hoes and bunding along the
plant rows. For this story we are not comparing the yields but observing a
certain interesting symptoms.
Unbunded corns grew
more adventive roots in the nodes near the soil and were stronger than bunded
corn when they were blown by the wind. Number of corn stems fallen on the ground
were more in the bunded plots.
What I am trying to explain here is that when
corns were not bunded, they tried to maintain their stems to stand by producing
adventive roots. This symptoms indicated
that in a certain situation where plants feel endangered, they apply some
emergency programs man never know what, except when the plants’ are treated with severe dangers. Corns are obeying all programs they are bringing in
their DNA.

More adventives roots grew in unbunded corn plots.
Bratawali (Tinospora crispa)Knows Priorities.
Twenty centimeter of medicinal herb named Bratawali was cut incidentally from its base and was hung on a branch of a tree so that it has no access to soil.
From the lowest part of the stem a thread-size root grew down two meters long to the ground. After it reached the soil, the thread like root grew bigger and able to absorbed water and nutrients. Later shoots and leaves grew from the hung stem.
Bratawali knows how to absorbs nutrient although it was cat from its base. It knows how to save energy by growing the thread like root very small at first and and becoming bigger after it had reached the soil.
Who does teach Bratawali to make priority by growing very thin root first before reaching the soil?
Who does teach Bratawali to grow root from the lowest part of the hanging stem. Tinosporas know where to
grow the aerial root, they know that soil is the sources of nutrients and they
know how to save energy by growing small root first.
Picture 3: A sewing-thread-size aerial root grow down to the soil from a two meter high hanging Tinospora stem. The stem image is not shown.
Ipomoea (Ipomoea aquatica) Vegetable Plants Know the Source of Light.
A bundle of Ipomoea which leaves had been
plucked to be cooked, was thrown to a small shallow pond. Some days later from
the horizontally laid bundle grew some shoots which grew upward to the light.
From some nodes grew downward some roots.
Ipomoea understands that shoots should
grow up to the light and roots go downs in search for nutrients although they
have no brain.
Picture 4:
Ipomoea shoots grow up to the light some days after being thrown in the shallow
pond.
Plants Have Programs
to Save Themselves from Damaged in the Normal and Emergency Situations.
Plants are
obeying what are written in their DNA within their chromosome in the cell
nuclei. Plants carry these orders down to their descendants through their seeds
or spores or vegetatively through their organs.
Millions of miracles have been happening in nature but many
think that those are not amazing enough to be appreciated but only normal incidents that not to be
thought about.
Fifteen centuries
ago, Messenger Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) received revelation from Allah (Glory Is To Allah) through Jibril (Gabriel) telling Muhammad (PBUH) the words Moses had spoken answering Pharaoh of Egypt.
He said: "Our Lord is Who gave to each (created) thing its form and nature, and further, gave (it) guidance"
TQS, Thaahaa (20):50.
This is a conversation between Moses (UHBP) and the Pharaoh of Egypt 5000 years ago.
Translation by 'Abdullah Yusuf 'Ali
Allah (GITH) has created rice, corn, Ipomoea and Tinospora's forms as they are and has given guidance to them to live according to their functions through the messages in the genes within DNA.
