Not exactly. Bio-dynamic gardening goes back to Rudolf Steiner in Austria who started a school of thought & termed it 'Anthroposophy' - the 'science of the spirit.' Ever hear of Waldorf schools? That was him. He died in 1925. He greatly influenced Alan Chadwick (England) who coined the term "bio-dynamic gardening," who eventually ended up teaching at the University of Santa Cruz, as well as being a Shakespearean actor for 32 years. Alan Chadwick passed away on May 25, 1980. On the wall to the left of his bed he had hung -- just prior to his death -- a copy of Shakespeare's Sonnet XV. It is as fitting a summary of the man's life as anyone could ask for.
Sonnet XV
"When I consider every thing that grows
Holds in perfection but a little moment,
That this huge stage presenteth nought but shows
Whereon the stars in secret influence comment;
When I perceive that men as plants increase,
Cheered and check'd even by the self-same sky;
Vaunt in their youthful sap, at height decrease,
And wear their brave state out of memory;
Then the conceit of this inconsistant stay
Sets you most rich in youth before my sight,
Where wasteful Time debateth with Decay,
To change your day of youth to sullied night;
And, all in war with Time for love of you,
As he takes from you, I engraft you new."
Now, what do you think about that?
