Do Pigeons Have Chakras ? by John Clements We all know the difference between good pigeons and poor or bad pigeons, yet do we know why some are just better than others? Often the good and the bad appear to look the same but when it comes to performance, especially under difficult conditions or hard races, some pigeons (the real good ones) just shake these poor conditions off and still home regardless. They make it look easy. Consistent or reliable Pigeons, such as NFC certificate of merit pigeons, fall into this category. All animal senses are more highly developed than humans, so it is logical to think that some have even better developed senses than others. Homing or the ability to Migrate or navigate their way home might involve pigeon Chakras (if they exist) being better developed or more in tune so as to release a more highly attuned sense of self and as a consequence a better and more efficient balance of their Chakras. We all, or most of us, know most of the best pigeons are the result of a 'cross' but not all crosses work. Perhaps it is the good Cross or the extra vigour resulting from the good cross that is actually working not on the physical body but on the chakras or bird senses. It is now well known that 'Acupuncture' or the ancient system of Chinese medicine works not only in humans but also in animals. I have a niece who happens to also be a vet who studied in China and uses Acupuncture in the treatment of animals in her practice. The base of this system is the flow between opposites called Yin and Yang. Acupuncture is thought to assist this flow or to release blockages where they may occur in order to put the body back in self-healing harmony. Yin and Yang harmony or areas of the body where blockages may occur may be also those same Chakra nodes alluded to in other Chinese disciplines. The two may be related and the good or the bad pigeon might well be a manifestation of this ancient thinking. What we must really avoid when we decide what pigeons are good and what are not is to use the present first prize system or highest velocity method as our guide and think instead more down the lines of consistency rather than firsts. Ideas such as the ‘Ace’ Pigeon system or the NFC Certificate of Merit deserve more recognition. The UK sport should, if it is to develop to its true potential - devise a method of finding consistency as an integral part of race results so as to highlight the proper pigeons.
