The Tree That Whispers – A Forgotten Corner of Belie

 The Tree That Whispers – A Forgotten Corner of Belief...

 Somewhere deep in the hills of Matale, there’s a single tree that villagers still call “the whispering tree.”


It stands alone, near an unused paddy field — its roots tangled in old stone. They say no matter how quiet the wind is, this tree moves. Not like a breeze, but like it’s breathing.


No nameplate. No temple nearby. No historical records.

But the belief? Still alive.


I went there on a morning when mist hugged the land. It was so silent, even birds weren’t singing. I stood by the tree for nearly 15 minutes, listening to... nothing.

But “nothing” felt full.

Full of presence. Full of stillness. Full of something I couldn’t explain.


Villagers say if you touch the bark with your left hand and close your eyes, the tree “knows what you're carrying.”


I didn’t ask for anything. I just listened.

And walked away a little quieter than I came.

Beyond the garden, a single crooked hut under a massive tree. No crowd. No guide. No story on a plaque. Just silence. A silence that speaks deeper than words. I went back again—this time under the moonlight. That second visit told me something:  “Serenity isn’t loud. It waits, hidden, in forgotten corners.” I didn’t take many photos. Some places feel sacred — not because of religion, but because they ask to be remembered quietly. In the stillness, I found something I didn’t know I had lost: the ability to feel without explanation. Maybe one day, I’ll go back. Or maybe it’s enough to know it’s still there, waiting in the moonlight — unchanged, unnamed, and unforgettable. 🖤🌙 This place doesn’t need a na...
