What happened to the beautiful dawn chorus

Dawn chorus just isn’t what it used to be.

In Vedic times , the leaders were respectful towards all living beings. They had equal responsibility towards every one and every creature that lived , and under the direction of a wise council of persons who were knowledgeable about consciousness , they knew that the consciousness present meant that the living being was a soul in a particular body for particular reasons , and should be regarded equal to humans , in terms of their rights of existence.

Unfortunately, we can not say our current leaders are at all wise or knowledgeable about many things , especially about consciousness . Most of them are either Darwinians or have no spiritual scientific understanding of consciousness , and foolishly assume only humans are really conscious or have souls .

Their ignorance is reflected in the way they ruthlessly treat the environment and the creatures that live within it , whether it be the sky , land, or the sea .

Here is an example of their callousness.

The following lists percentage of declines of some bird species recorded in the Common Bird Census between 1970 and 1999 , todays figures would be considerably more alarming.

Tree sparrow -95 per cent…. Corn bunting -88 per cent…. Willow tit -78 per cent ….Spotted flycatcher -77 per cent ….Woodcock -74 per cent…. Starling -71 per cent …..Turtle dove -71 per cent ….Song thrush -56 per cent….. Bullfinch -53 per cent ….. Skylark -52 per cent…. Cuckoo -33 per cent

Bhagavad Gita 16.9.

Lord Krishna tells us how to recognise the work of those with demoniac mentality, or who dwell in ignorance.

…”.the demons, lost to themselves, and with no real intelligence, engage in unbeneficial ,horrible works meant to destroy the world.”

Jesus said You’ll know people by their works .

It’s time to select leaders who are led by the real intelligensia and bypass politicians who, at most are sophisticated animals with absolutely no wisdom in real terms , who only take guidance from exploitative money men , and discard wise council.
