The Symphony of the Soil, film by Deborah Koons Garcia
The Symphony of the Soil, film by Deborah Koons Garcia brings to mind my own spiritual father, Dr. Bernard Jensen. I feel a letdown tonight, as if a torch intended to be carried forward, has not been carried forward.

The Symphony of the Soil, film by Deborah Koons Garcia
Spring Equinox 2012
Garden Management Journal
This is near the first day of Spring 2012. I am attempting to get my head on straight. We are also in Mercury Retrograde, a time of reflection. I am glad I heard about this film by Deborah Koons Garcia coming out. This is a subject that is a the core of my life, the health of the soil. I went to an event tonight that celebrated the fourth anniversary of the Victory Gardens in San Diego. It brought to my attention that the Gerson institute is Celebrating its 90th Anniversary. It was Saturday, March 9, 2012 at the Natural Product Expo West that The Bragg folks celebrated their 100th Anniversary.
My mind is filled with loose threats right now, and a sense of comparing. Bragg, 100th, Gerson 90th, What of my spiritual father, Dr. Bernard Jensen?
His birthday is March 25, this Sunday. I feel a sense of letting him down. He was one of the greatest recorders of his life, and it was through him that I understand The Symphony of the Soil. It is through him that I learned about
Max Gerson, and also heard personal stories of Paul Bragg, the father of Patricia.
He was one of the greatest nexus points of history, connecting the past of natural healing with the present. There was a 100th Anniversary of what would have been his 100th Birthday, a few years back, but then much of the archives were given away. I do not know what remains of the many films he made that never were archived to be carried forward.
I do have archives of some still photos....but nothing like he had. His was a tradition in the Natural healing Arts that deserves to be remembered.
What of Dr. Bernard Jensen?
Looking for other links to people who knew Dr. Bernard Jensen
The Arthritis nature cure program we’ve developed draws from the brilliant works of such biologically oriented practitioners as Father Sebastian Kneipp of Bavaria, Dr. Russel Tral, who started our nation’s first school for biological therapeutics, Dr. John Kellog of Battle Creek Michigan, Henry Lindlahr MD who was considered the authority on Healing Crises manifestations, Hippocrates, Dr. Victor G. Rocine of Norway, the Swedish, Swiss and German nature cure health centers and many third world country Nature Cure advocates and practitioners. However, it is the singular pioneering work of Jorgen Bernard Jensen DC, ND, PhD that carries the greatest influence in our work at the Jensen Memorial Health Retreat.
