I used to have a mali, a gardener, a very old man. I found that once in a while when he was not aware that I was watching -- I may have been inside the house looking at him through the window -- he was talking to the trees. I caught him one day red-handed, I said, "What are you doing?"
He said, "Don't tell anybody. They will think I am mad. But the truth is that I feel a certain affinity... My whole life I have worked with trees; I have always talked to them and to my surprise, if I put two plants of equal height and I talk to one plant and not to the other -- and I give equal nourishment, equal care, equal water, equal sun, equal manure to both, but to one I talk with great love, I caress with my hands -- that tree grows faster. Soon, within a month, it has a height double the other tree. Although everything else is equal, one thing is missing -- my love.
And he used to win every year the competition for flowers. He produced the greatest roses I have ever seen, the greatest dahlias I have ever seen. And his strategy was to talk to the flowers,
"Don't let me down. The competition is coming closer. You have to give me one big flower, the biggest that you can manage."
I became intimate with him and he knew that I would not tell anybody. I understand him and I don't think he is mad. He is working perfectly. Poor fellow, if he had been educated and scientific, he would have found many secrets about trees. But I have seen it with my own eyes because he was with me for almost nine years. And when I left, he wanted to come with me. But I said, "In Bombay I won't have a garden."
He even wrote to America, when I was there, "Now you have such a big place there, why don't you call me, although I am too old and not much use. But still, what I can do with trees, nobody else can do."
