Abstract
Trees play a profound role in the spiritual rituals of the Shakta Tantric tradition, acting as a catalyst for the practitioner's spiritual transformation. Yet, the practice of tree worship often seems obscure to the modern mind, necessitating innovative approaches to integrate its essence into contemporary educational frameworks. This chapter endeavors to redefine worship as an artistic process that could potentially cultivate empathy, highlighting its capacity to deepen human connections with the environment by exploring the implications of adopting a tree-centric or arboromorphic perspective within educational frameworks.
