57 Decoding bird signs

One is the tradition of using signs & symbols from birds to forecast events.

I have personally seen people in old days mentioning that a visitor can be expected by hearing a very specific cawing sound of the crows. In those days, crows were plenty. Now crows are not so plenty.

I do not know if the predications come true or not. For, I was very young.

Even now, I have seen persons looking for signs from the voice of the crows. I understand that there are more hints that are being looked for.

There is an annual festivity of paying homage to dead ancestors. I have heard that a very specific crow species comes to take the offering on behalf of the ancestors. People believe it. ‘Learned’ scientifically thinking people mention all this as nonsense. At the same time, they themselves have their own ‘nonsenses’ in which they have perfect trust.

Human beings actually do not know anything about what runs the biology mechanism. What the machinery of mind is. Or of the brain software that literally seems to be of astronomical powers and capacity, compared to even the best computer software we currently have.

If a section of the great minds of the modern world can step aside from the narrow pathway of physical sciences, and dwell upon the possibility of there being a software logic to everything, there might be much to find out.

If computers and mobile devices can communicate with each other and with far distances, there is nothing wrong in thinking that the human and animal minds are capable of much more than that.

Yet human minds are in a disarray, due to the various pulls and pushes that bear upon it from various querulous and non-querulous locations.
