A bad birdwatchers view of unity
During my last vacation I watched a lot of videos on murmuration
as this phenomenon is called. Murmuration is from the murmuring
sound heard from the flock. This video below is the best video I have
found so far. It shows different phases, the beginning when the birds
get on the wings, flying around almost at random. When they get
together in small flocks, when the small flocks get together in large
flocks. When the flock dissolve and come together again and when
the flock get really dense and moves as one. If you watch the video in
slow motion you can see that they dont tip their wings in the same
moment, there are waves of movement going through the flock, that
determines when and how to change the angle of their wings.
There are two questions that so far has been unanswered by science
about this phenomenon. First, why are the birds doing this? There have
been a few theories, but no that have been able to explain why. One
theory is about protection from attacking falcons. This works, its very
hard to pick a prey from those close formations, there are videos on
UT on this, But some birds do this in places where there are no birds
of prey. I saw Guillemots flying like this on Svalbard 2009. And there
are no birds of prey on Svalbard. So why do they do this?
The other question is how is it done. How do they communicate?
How can each of them know the exact moment to change the angle
of the wing tip? One mistake and we would watch the greatest multiple
collision in histoty. Noone knows how.
To me it looks as they are all connected to a field.

Here is an article from Wired Science on the phenomenon.

The question is , how is this field created? I dont know, but I think
that its important that they act as sovereign beings. They are, they
dont demand anyone to allow them to fly anywhere, hunt insects
build their nests and rise their offspring. But of course they have
to take care of themselves too. Noone to blame if they are eaten
by a fat cat.

Could we, humans create a similar field if we were sovereign in the same way?
I mean, we are sovereign but have millenias of garbage and lies stored, that we
have to let go to realize who we really are. Or maybe I should
say, realizing who we are, all the garbage is just seen as the
illusion it is. LOL
Is this murmuration a picture of unity on an animal level?
Watching those videos with the Philosophia Perennis glasses. ie
Its sleeping in the stones
Its dreaming in the plants
Its living in the animals
Its conscious in humans
Wot does this phenomenon mean when it reaches the human level?
Please watch, the video, think about it as a display of consciousness,
happening in consciousness, watched by consciousness. And do
elaborate on this.
It has haunted me for quite some time. LOL
