It really is something profound, isn't it. Just as life itself! It seems that you are determined to follow your own "spiritual" path if you will and have even goals set out for you. Still, i would not try to lose contact with the "ordinary" world. There are many different cultures out there. In fact, every person has its own set of values and beliefs. The belief in plants being lifeless, soulless objects is very common and it can't be expected for people to share an animistic worldview in this day and time.
Do you also take other plants? I recently found, that fruits and vegetables are really helping if you eat enough / juice enough of them (3KG +) daily.
Welcome!
