SHORT-TOED EAGLE- SHINE OF LORD KRISHNA!

You know about the Short-Toed Eagle very well. Simply a kind of bird with usual bird's activity. There is no special performance for the bird Short-Toed Eagle. But some people worship Short-Toed Eagle as a God Krishna. The devotees of Vishnu followers take fasting usually on Thursdays and waiting for darshan(visit) of Short-Toed Eagle Krishna in the evening time. After seeing the Short-Toed Eagle Krishna they close their fasting and start to eat food items. Sometime the Short-Toed Eagle don't visit the devotees, on that day there is no food for the devotees and they continue fasting. In Vishnu Temples  the Short-Toed Eagle is in the form of Garuda vagana( transport vehicle for Lord Vishnu). The Short-Toed Eagle always interested in eating rats, snakes, fishes and some time young chickens. The devotees food to the Eagle Krishna is sweet rice and vada. The devotees always welcome the Eagle Krishna. Usually the Krishna, Short-Toed Eagle search for the young tender chickens from the devotees house and pick up the chickens. On that time of looting, the Krishna Eagle is not invited by the devotees. But the devotees shouted as go! go! go! and throw stones and dust cleaning sticks on the Eagle Krishna to save the young chickens. My friends, what is the logic in this prayer? Just we think, God is not always God But sometime fraud is equal to No God. "When the devotion is in mind , there is no thinking in mind otherwise when the proper thinking is in the mind, there is no devotion in the mind", Thandhai Periyar said. OK.
