A Note to Ramesh Balsakar: The Symbolism of Birds on my Spiritual Path

May 20, 2004

Dear Mr. Balsekar,

I am so amazed at the little reminders that Nature throws in my path. 

Birds have become my talisman. 

When I am driving, birds swoop down across my path. 

Slowly, I noticed their appearance was related to the Divine.

Always gently reminding me to fall back on the Self. 

They are here to remind me of my True Nature.  This simple reminder is ‘gentleness in motion’.

What a joy.
