Never think that I believe I should set out A “System of teaching” to help people Understand the way. Never cherish such a thought. What I proclaim is the truth as I have discovered it And “ a system of teaching” has no meaning Because the truth can’t be cut up into pieces And arranged in a system. ` BUDDHA

Sitta minor. Male with the gular pouch extended (from ‘Gunther’s Reptiles of India’) {In my native place we had this species, with red pouch under its neck, which was turning red. It remained immobile when someone approaches it. And the boys used to say, it is absorbing blood from our eyes, and we used to pelt stones at it. Fortunately we were bad at aiming!!}
