Sense proving, 27-8-2025, Utrecht, Jan Scholten.
ProvingThe leaf is asymmetrical, light green around the veins, serrated, whole and simple, pinnate, with a lighter underside.
The taste is neutral and dry, gradually becoming slightly unpleasant.
A manipulative person, with a pleasant façade but gradually becoming intrusive.
He clings to others, gripping them as if with the claws of a crab, encompassing everything and refusing to let go.
Fascinating and enchanting.
A guru who seems very simple and loving, and takes people into his ashram; he seems to give but mainly takes; he seems to strive for the betterment of the world and wants that too, but charity begins at home, and the flesh is stronger than the will.
