Guest guest Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 Dear Shreeramji, I feed birds(generally sparrows since I have not seen many crows near where I live) and squirrels cooked rice and black til on Saturdays. However, they do not seem to like cooked rice(with or without ghee). Is it okay to feed them uncooked rice, since they seem to enjoy it based on my experimentation. I do this since I am running Sani Mahadasa and ideally would like to feed crows on Saturday. Any suggestions would be welcome ||Om Hreem Sri Rajarajeshwaryai Namah|| Balaji Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 Dear Balaji, My heart gladdens when anyone speaks kind of animals or birds or tries to help them. In this case even if your purpose is for your own self the birds are benefitted. Feed them uncooked rice or popcorn grits or there is even bird food available in the market. Also feed the sparrows water. Keep the water in a bowl near the food. For shani period(sade saathi, ashtama shani or kantaka shani) feeding crows is best. Sometimes, I have seen that if the person's karmas are very heavy, the crows do not even touch the food!!(whether the rice is boiled or not or whether it is with ghee or sesame seeds or not). I am not surprised as crows do possess a subtle psychic sense of the preta and karmic realms. It is not the crow which eats the rice but a preta-atma or shani's law body which eats the food through the medium of the crow. If there are no crows, do feed the sparrows and you can feed a black stray dog or diseased dog with curd rice or bread. May eshwaree bless you for your kind mind.
