It seems some spend a lot of money on kit to get pictures of birds but I do
not have the where with all both ability for using such equipment or the will
to buy it so I wondered if maybe the birds would pose for shots instead of
having to do split second timing.
I came accross the Teachings of His Divine Grace A C Bhaktivedanta Swami
Prabhupada , who states that the material world is made out of
forgetfullness (or ignorance ) of God (Krishna), almost every being on the
planet including trees and animals and humans are busy forgetting or
ignoring Krishna or God. Basically we are trying to enjoy the things created
by God but ignoring God at the same time. This being contrary to our
essence and thus causing suffering.
One of Srila Prabhupadas recommendations was on diet. Food that is not
offered to Krishna increases ones ignorance and He taught that food should
be first offered to Krishna and then it helps one in rememberance. Of course
there are alloted foodstuffs for humans, foods that are given such as fruits
nuts and grains and also milk. Unneccesary killing of animals is sub human
( and causes much suffering ) even though we are all educated to the
contrary.
So food that is offered to Krishna and is of the alloted types gets a kind of
Spiritual Spice or infusion and then anyone who eats the food gets spiritual
benefit, animals or humans.
What is this to do with birds posing for pictures ?
well whilst camping I would throw some peanuts that had been offered to
Krishna around the tent area and one robin especially seemed to take a liking
to them, so much so that the robin seemed to pester me as if asking or
waiting for the peanuts to be distributed. The robin would come in the tent in
the morning as if trying to get me out the sleeping bag and would later have
a look round to see what was occuring or most likely if any more peanuts
were being eaten.
picture 1 " Do you see many birds through this thing ?"
picture 2 " This early bird would like to get the peanut ! "
picture 3 " "
picture 4 " snack time yet ? "
picture 5 " wasting time on a computer when you could be eating peanuts ! "
For an introduction to the teaching of Srila Prabupada if you put
" Miracle on 2nd Avenue free PDF download " and/or
"The Hare Krishna explosion free PDF download "
into google search bar it should give result of PDF books to download.
Both written by the first followers and tells how they and others were
changed from hippies to monks and nuns. Great Read
Just say " A little bird told me "
