Peacock Feathers : Book 2 : Dr. Shir Balaji Tambe

The peacock is associated with Goddess Saraswati who represents Knowledge. It has unique and vibrant feathers that signify the Cosmic Eye. It is a creature of high evolution. Its call is the reference for the base note in Indian music - Sa which represents the Sun.



Its feathers, affixed in any cap, carry the splendor of a crown, and thus Shri Krishna acquired it as His symbol.



One Truth-Tat Twam Asi (You Are That) - is expressed in a thousand different ways in the Vedas. Shri Krishna has distilled those expressions in the Geeta. Every verse, like the peacock's plume, mirrors the Sun's inspiring rays-the distribution of energy from a single source to countless receivers. Therefore, this journey to understand the Shrimad Bhagawad Geeta has been called Peacock Feathers.
