Birch Polypore – Fomitopsis betulina
Unconditional connection from heart to heart
When the circle closes, the ending life meets the beginning, the hearts connect and love and wisdom flow from heart to heart and becomes young again. There is a spiritual connection comparable to that which the energy of the Birch Polypore can bring about.
In Zen we know the term Robaishin, the heart of a grandmother. She has a heart made wild and brave by adversity, and the four limitless abodes are her nature. This is how Kazuaki Tanahashi, the master calligrapher, describes the grandmother’s heart.
The birch is known as the bearer of the archetypal energy of the wise old woman. The Birch Polypore is like a transmitter of this energy, who saves it and transfers it to others before it can get lost through the death of the old woman.
Everything is preserved. Even young people can feel and act like a wise old woman.
Birch Polypore strengthens the inside so that the external appearance ceases to play a role. It strengthens self-esteem so that one becomes independent of the appreciation of others. It makes people receptive to truth and wisdom and lets them radiate both regardless of whether someone wants to pay attention to them.
