The concept of the Tree of Life, a many-branched tree illustrating the idea that all life on earth is related, has been used in science, religion, philosophy, mythology, and other areas. According to the Encyclopædia Britannica, the Tree of Knowledge, connecting to heaven and the underworld, and the Tree of Life, connecting all forms of creation, are both forms of the world tree or cosmic tree. Its origins lie in Celtic traditions, but the Tree of Life is a recognized symbol in many cultures, including Chinese, Egyptian and Indian. The Celts of ancient times believed that trees had several powers and provided people with food, shelter and warmth. Different life forces including insects and animals took shelter in these trees. Different parts of this tree are assigned specific meanings. Roots of Tree of Life are considered to be the foundation and they symbolize the other world. Trunk of this tree joins branches and roots. It is therefore associated with the mortal world. The branches connect different worlds that are present above and below. The symbol of Tree of Life represents different qualities and virtues like wisdom, strength, protection, beauty, bounty and redemption. It is also considered to be the symbol of 'Creator'. This tree is associated with the creator because it provides protection, supports abundant fruit production and thereby, regeneration. This analogy can also be used to describe the life of humans. We as humans develop 'roots' of our beliefs, 'branch out' by means of wisdom and the 'trunk' (mind & body) keeps them connected. The Tree of Life meaning as perceived in different faiths, belief systems and cultures, resonates with a simple and strong message of unity. This symbol indicates that all forms of life are connected through a cosmic energy and that we as humans should live in harmony with rest of the living beings.
