    The eagle faces a difficult choice in its 40s, as its talons can no longer grab prey for food. It has two options: die, or go through a 150-day painful process of change. During this process, the eagle knocks its beak against rocks until it plucks it out. It then waits for a new beak to grow and plucks out its talons. Once its new talons regrow, it plucks out its old feathers. After five months, the eagle emerges reborn and lives another 30 years.

    The eagle has the longest life-

    span of its' species It can live


    up to 70 years …
    But to reach this age,
    the eagle must make a hard
    decision in its' 40’s…
    Its' long and flexible talons can
    no longer grab prey which
    serves as food
    Then, the eagle
    is left with only
    two options;

    DIE
    or
    Go through a
    painful process
    of change which
    lasts 150 days.
    There the eagle knocks
    its' beak against a rock
    until it plucks it out
    After plucking it out, the
    eagle will wait for a new
    beak to grow back and
    then it will pluck out its'
    talons
    When its' new talons grow back, the
    eagle starts plucking its' old-aged
    feathers
    And after five months, the eagle takes its' famous flight of rebirth and lives for ...
    30 more years
    REFLECT
    ON YOUR
    JOURNEY

    The living entities in this conditioned world are My eternal fragmental


    parts. Due to conditioned life, they are struggling very hard with the six
    senses, which include the mind.

    atha cet tvam ahaṅkārān
    na śroṣyasi vinaṅkṣyasi

    If you become conscious of Me, you will pass over all the obstacles of
    conditioned life by My grace. If, however, you do not work in such
    consciousness but act through false ego, not hearing Me, you will be
    lost
