Why the Swan is The Symbol of Learning?



Do u see the swan in the picture? Look for it,and follow me.

Today reminds me to recall my past learning of the symbolic meaning from an Indian uncle.Why the Swan? Why not any other creature?

The swan knows what is worth and what is not.It is able to find milk in a lake of lots of water. This applies to us as learners must how to learn what is to be learned to learn and avoid the rest that is not.


เรียนให้เหมือนกัยหงษ์ที่รู้จักรินนมจากแม่น้ำ สิ่งต่างๆมีให้เราเรียนรู้มากมาย เราก็ต้องรู้ว่าเราอะไรคือสิ่งที่เราต้องเรียน ต้องใช้ และต้องตักออกมาจากแหล่งคามรู้มากมายที่เราไม่สามารถเรียนรู้หมดได้ ง่ายๆเลยก็คือว่า..เรียนรู้ในสิ่งที่เราคนคนหนึ่งชาติหนึ่งมีความจำเป็นที่จะต้องรู้ก่อน ก่อนที่จะไปเรียนเสริมอื่นๆนั่นเอง...ถูกหรือเปล่าไม่รู้ซิ

India and I

  • There are alots of things which waiting for us to discover. All knowledge is not around us,but inside. It is depended upon our ability to realise and pick it up. The apple falls from the tree,and if Newton failed to learn from it,then the law of gravitation would have not been discovered!!!
  • India is the country of contrast. You often see someting beyound your expectation.Yet,and I found that there is a tool similar to Hmong's ones expecially the stick used for balancing the two baskets for carrying water. I observed that their's one is like ours only. In Hmong language we can read it phonetically as " / dΛ ŋ/ ". This attracts me to look forward for the connection.
  • India has also have a interesting story "Why corps in the filed do not come home themselves like in the past?" I have heard this story when I was a child. Thus when I came across this Indian legend ,it reminds me of the Hmong version. If you are interested you can check it out form my page in Thai text,otherwise you can surf it. This story creates another couriosity in me. I want to find out if we had been to India before we reached in China. Because the ICE AGE or the Peleolithic Age or The Earliest traces of human existance was in India.
  • India is where we Hmongs think that there are also Hmongs live in. But I have experienced that there is not Hmong Indian. Yet,there is a gruop of people who call themselves as "Mizo"(with the similarity of the Hmong's names given by the Han, i.e. Miao zu,Meo or even Mizo ) .But as far as I have learnt form my Mizo friends in college,our language is competely different to one another.Moreover, our dress also is different. However there are many Hmong researchers suggested me that there are Hmongs living in India,and yes, there are Hmongs living here, but only living for studying.
  • I was in debt to India. She educates,guides and teaches me how to be a great survior.
  • เป็นกำลังใจให้ทุกคนๆเดินออกมาพร้อมความสำเร็จนะ
  • ใครเรียนอยู่อินเดียบ้าง..ขอมือหน่อย
