Namaste Sunder-ji,

Now you have destroyed my delusion.

Here I am struggling to be academic and you put up a

single verse that has the tears flowing.

 

I think Indra has been firing his lightning bolts at

those black clouds again and released the rains.

 

Both you and Adi-ji sent me pictures of Goddess

Meenakshi with the green parrot representing the

Vedas. I told also of the strange appearance of green

parrots in our garden recently.

 

If Benjamin comes by this way....... Benjamin has been

posting British news stories lately........look out

for the national news story today that Southern

England is being invaded by green parrots. Thousand

are joining flocks and pushing out our crows etc.

 

What can be the meaning of such strange omens????
