A Murder of Crows - PBS Documentary

It is possible to foretell coming events through careful attention to the cries and behavior of crows. As we may
see, the practice of divining from bird calls, properly called auspicy in the English language, appears to originate
in China. Yet, as narrowly concerned with crows, it would seem the practice is an Indo-Tibetan invention with
symbiotic relationship to Chinese methods.

The tradition with which I am most familiar comes to Tibet from India. The first written record of which I am
aware is found in the middle sixth century, in the Brihat Samhita by Varahamihira. In the early ninth century we
find a Sanskrit text entitled Kakajarita translated by the pandit Danacila into the Tibetan language as Bya-rog-gi
skad brtag-par bya-ba, or "Investigating the Cries of Crows." Through incorporation of this translation into the
Tibetan Tanjur, or Buddhist canon, crow auspicy became an established means of divination in Tibet.

Underlying Principles of Crow Augury

Divination through observation of crows in Tibetan tradition is founded on the following principles:

1. Crows are of varying distinction and intelligence, therefore notice must be taken of the varying classes
of crows.
2. Crows respond to events with characteristic behavioral patterns, therefore by noting the character of the
response one may learn the character of the event.
3. Crow behavior and response differs according to time of day.
4. The angle of direction between the observer and the crow has significance.

The general predictions governing crow calls are given as follows, categorized by the time of day and the
direction in which the call is observed.

THE POWER OF CROW:

Symbol of Sacred Law, Change

Many cultures consider crows to be the keepers of the Sacred Law, for nothing escapes their keen
sight. To have a Crow as a power animal is extremely powerful stuff. When we meditate on the
crow and align with it, we are instilled with the wisdom to know ourselves beyond the limitations
of one-dimensional thinking and laws. We are taught to appreciate the many dimensions of both
reality and ourselves, and to learn to trust our intuition and personal integrity.

Crows often appear in groups, and though there seems to be no variation in their caw-ing to each
other, each caw actually has a different meaning. Their complex vocabulary is one sign of their

Crow Divination http://www.jcrows.com/crolang.html

intelligence, and is also a sign of their significance as power animals. When a crow explores
something new, others watch closely to see what happens and then learn from it. They often make
great noise when hunters are around, warning deer and other birds. Crows recognise potential
danger and hence always post lookouts when feeding. This is their most vulnerable time. This helps
us understand that we must watch what we believe, to test our habitual ideas about reality against a
more universal standard.

Without paying careful attention, we are unable to understand the language of crows, this signifies
the fact that we can't always see beyond our own cultural limitations. These limitations include
certain moral codes of right and wrong, along with 'rules' that accompany these codes.

Throughout history there have been many (unnecessary) conflicts and wars between humans due to
differing moral and religious beliefs. To truly create a new age of love, peace and harmony it is of
high importance for us to be able to transcend our particular cultural limitations and to hold in our
hearts and souls what we share as spiritual beings in human form. We are all connected, infinitely
and composed of the same 'stuff'. We need to realise that hurting others only hurts ourselves. Crow
is the bird which represents this transcendence.

Crow can also teach us to be mindful about judging people automatically. Be mindful of your
opinions and actions. You need to walk your talk, to speak your truth and to know your life's
mission. Again, trust your intuition and personal integrity, to create your own standards, whether or
not they match those of the world around you. Be an individual, think for yourself, don't
necessarily follow the crowd!

In the courting process the male crow's voice takes on a singing quality. This lets us see what the
basis of sacred law is, unconditional love, the one unfailing principle by which we can test our own
principles.

Crow is an omen of change. Crows live in the void and have no sense of time, therefore being able
to see past, present and future simultaneously. They unite both the light and the dark, both the
inner and the outer. Crow is the totem of the Great Spirit and must be held with utmost respected.
They are representations of creation and spiritual strength.

Crows are messengers, telling us about the creation and magic all around us, that is available to us
just for the asking. Look for opportunities to bring into being the magic of life. The striking black
colour of the crow represents the colour of creation. It is the womb out of which the new comes
into existence. Black is the colour of the night, giving birth to the light of a new day.

Crows are sly and can be deceptive in their actions. They have been known to build false nests high
in treetops to confuse predators. Their nests are built very high up, giving them the chance to watch
everything that is going on around them.

As crows are adaptable to all environments and will eat almost anything, they can survive in almost
any situation. Crow is surrounded by magic, unseen forces and spiritual strength. If crow enters
your life, get out of your familiar nest, look beyond your present range of vision, listen to the
message(s) in its caw and act accordingly.

"If you care to go to school go to the honey bees, fowl, cats, dogs, goats, mink, calves, dairy cows, bulls and
horses and allow
them to teach you their ways, you will gain an insight into physiological and biochemical medicine not to
be learned from medical
books. Verified by observing results in animals, this medicine, which is passed from generation to
generation by word of mouth
enables great numbers of Vermonters to continue carrying heavy daily work loads and to go on well past
the Scriptural
three-score-and-ten years into good physical and mental vigor, good digestion, good eyesight and good
hearing, avoiding senility
to the very end." Dr. D.C. Jarvis

"You inquired, as I recall, whether one may permissibly manufacture sweet cider and then, after natural fermentation has
occurred,
sell the finished product, without complying with the statutory provisions and local regulations governing the sale of alcoholic
beverages."

The way a crow

Shook down on me
The dust of snow
From a hemlock tree
Has given my heart
A change of mood
And saved some part
Of a day I had rued.
Robert Frost

Scene Near Northwood Narrows, NH circa 1918

"Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it
is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your
religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not
believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and
analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one
and all, then accept it and live up to it.”
Siddhartha Gautama Buddha
