talking with a bird, because He speaks even in the languages of the birds. An old lady saw this and was struck with wonder: "Oh, He is talking with a bird!"
Dr. Singh.  You mean He was actually talking the way the birds talk?
Śrīla Prabhupāda.  Yes. One of Kṛṣṇa's qualities described in the  Vedas  is that He can speak any language. He is the father of all living beings, and the father can understand the language of his children.
Kṛṣṇa is the supreme enjoyer. Actually, except for those who are Kṛṣṇa conscious, no one can have any real knowledge, nor can anyone enjoy. One simply suffers, but he thinks the suffering is enjoyment. This is called  māyā , or illusion. In America people work hard day and night, and they think, "I am enjoying." This is  māyā . A conditioned soul cannot enjoy anything; he simply suffers, but he thinks he is enjoying.
Therefore, in  Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam  the conditioned soul is likened to the camel. The camel is very fond of eating thorny twigs that cut his tongue. While he is eating them, blood issues from his tongue and mixes with the thorny twigs. They become a little tasty, and he is thinking, "Oh, these twigs are very nice." That is called  māyā .  Māyā  means "that which is not."  Mā  means "not," and  yā  means "this." So  māyā  means "not this." That is the explanation of  māyā , or illusion. The scientists are in  māyā  because they think they are improving things and becoming happy. But this world, along with everything in it, will eventually be finished because it is  māyā ; it is not what we think it is. As  Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam  explains, the materialists are thinking they are becoming victorious, but they are actually being defeated.
