By Tribhuvanatha dasa:

“On morning walks, Prabhupada would constantly point out different things. Once he saw some bird droppings and asked, ‘What does this mean?’

“Everyone was looking at the bird droppings and thinking, ‘Maybe Prabhupada reads tea leaf formations and sees it esoterically.’ Everyone was bewildered.

“Prabhupada said, ‘This tells you that the same bird is sleeping on the same branch every night. Even the bird becomes attached to his residence. So be careful.’”
