Atharva Veda Birds Quotations

May the winged birds that move in the air and in the sky descend; beasts of prey and insects shall seize upon them; the vultures that feed upon raw flesh shall hack into (their) carcasses!

Social classes, races, Muslims and Hindus; beasts, birds and the many varieties of beings and creatures; the entire world and the visible universe - all forms of existence shall pass away.

NESTS laboriously built by birds are torn away by storms; the fragrant petals of flowers are felled by rain.
