Now let us proceed to his concept of the vegetable souls.
According to Pak Subuh, above the soul of a material object exists a soul of plants or vegetables.
In this connection he says, "This concludes the explanation of the significance of the material souls.
Another category will now be discussed, namely, the vegetable souls which are also subordinate powers in the life of man on earth."
"These souls that arise in plants exert a greater influence on the life of man than material souls, since he needs food and without them he could have no strength whatever, nor could he possess a human body."
"Plants' souls are essential for life, since a man in his beginning, while still in his mother's womb, already receives vegetable elements through her mediation and is not separated from them up to the moment of birth."
P103
"The elements of vegetable souls are in fact a part of man himself.
They are in a state that cannot be detected by the eye of the senses, but only by the inner feelings when these have been thoroughly purified.
Such feelings are untainted by the thinking mind.
When he is in this state, the food substances derived from plants enter him and serve to nourish and strengthen his bodily condition, and in this way food represents the point of contact between the outer and the inner vegetable souls."
"The contact thus made between the outer and the inner corresponds to the returning of water to its original source, there being no difference between the two.
Any disharmony that arises between the two can have terrible consequences."
"The contact is made at the moment of eating.
When observed from the standpoint of reality, man is only an intermediary to bring the vegetable souls that are outside into contact with the corresponding souls that are already within."
"Whenever food is eaten by man it has two significant advantages.
The food returns to its origin and the man fulfills his obligation as a wise and noble creature of God."
P104
"Such a man is rightly the object of worship of the vegetable souls - both those that are within him and those that are without - since he by eating them can open their way to paradise that have so long awaited his help."
"The contact between the outer and inner vegetable souls resembles a long-awaited meeting between husband and wife.
The feeling of rapture experienced needs no description, for it can well be imagined."
"These aspirations are in no way different from those of men who await death in the hope that, having followed the right path in life,they may return to the glory of the eternal world."
"Plants yearn for a similar destiny, where through the mediation of man they may make contact with, and return to, a noble and lofty world."
"For the plant essences, therefore, it is far nobler to be eaten by man than to be thrown out on the ground and destroyed, or to become food for animals only."
"lndeed plants rejoice greatly and give praise and thanks to humankind for such a noble death."
P105
"Thus , my child, the essential state of plants is similar to that of the essence of the material objects already mentioned.
The difference between the two essences is that the material souls influence the mind of man only, whereas the soul of vegetables affects all his being."

PS
People who can send the essence of vegetable foods to their desired places, as mentioned above, become "people who can control vegetable force".
And it can be interpreted as an act of "flowing each force on the appropriate channel".
However, it can not be said that any person can do it if he is a human being.
From the above ... "... such (purified) inner feeling is not contaminated by the minds of thinking.
When humans are in this state, the essence of plant-derived food enters humans. ... "
First of all it is a premise that the inner feeling has been sufficiently purified by Latihan.
Otherwise, it is a meal just to eat nutrition for the physical body yourself, just as the animal does eat.
Then, Bapak says "you should not do such a situation."
Well this is a digression, but people who can handle plant power as such will never be troubled with food for a lifetime, Bapak says.
It is because food comes to seek the person from the food side.
Likewise, Bapak says that people who can handle material force well do not say that they are having trouble with money.
Money follows that person .
Rather than chasing money like ours, money is going to follow that person, the story turns like a reversal.
PS
Bapak says in his talk, "It is possible to recognize plants as food, so that incorporating it into the body and building the body is done with the help of vegetable force."
Well, this work of vegetable force is applicable not only to humans but also to animals in general, it seems that "animals basically have vegetable force."
However, it can be said that "human being by eating vegetable foods can open their way to paradise that they have so long awaited ",it is apparent that only human beings who reached a certain level are possible" .
