Well, he was telling me how his mother passed away last week and was still grieving a bit. Our conversation wandered into our fathers, their passing and our spiritual connections via spirit or timeless selves. Purdy Sensei relayed his story about his grandfather, who was an avid hunter and loved chickadees.
After his grandfather's death, Purdy Sensei's father went hunting. While in the woods waiting, chickadees came to visit him and one even sat on the bill of his cap. And for years, a chickadee would always accompany him on his hunting trips. Cool story.
We are all connected, even when we leave this body, we can still communicate with loved ones on so many different levels. All things are possible.
Hands palm to palm,
Shinzen
We are all interconnected--after all, we are One.
ReplyDeleteCool story, BTW :)
So true Rizal. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteChickadees are my favorite small birds. I too like their curiosity and they're just so darn cute. I love their bird call and can mimic it. In doing so I too can get a bunch of them to gather around when i'm up in the pine trees of the mountains here.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing James...I'm going to have watch for more chickadees myself. In gassho.
