In a talk given at the Santa Barbara Vedanta Temple on 12/4/2016, Swami Sarvapriyananda discusses the metaphor of the two birds from the Mundaka Upanishad.
I have no words to thank swamiji for his lucid exposition of vedanta. difference between conventional religions and spirituality explained beautifuly in this lucid talk.

Pranam Swamiji-- Thank you very much. This lecture has cleared more confusions- in understanding of Drg Drasya Vivek lectures and Aparokshanubhuti lectures. I earnestly request your honour to up load the Slokas Chanting in Sanskrit of Drs nDrasya Vivek ans Aparokshanubhuti and oblige. This will help us to practice daily.
Sir you said one is a higher bird (perched on the higher branch) and the other is lower one. But the Mantra describes them "sayuja" (conjoint), "sakhaya" (intimate). Can you please illuminate this aspect of the Mantra?
So taking the metaphor of the sun and the reflected sun in water...they are intimately connected.. The existence of the reflected sun is due to the sun and therefore conjoined and intimate. The reflected sun has no existence alone.. That is the lower bird or the atma identified with some designation (ahamkaar). The higher bird is the Paramatma..every free..ever untouched and independent... But it's only this original sun that exists.. I'm sorry, I know that the question was addressed to Swamiji. I tried to answer based on a limited understanding in the hope that it helps.. _/\_
At 20:43 - 21:03 - "Oh Arjuna , you have lived so many lives. So, have I. You have forgotten them all. I have not. That is the difference between the Lord and us the individuals" - That is a terrible blow on Advaita. It is complete self-destructive theory.

Dilipbhai Bhavsar to
OM SRI RAMA KRISHNA DEVA PARA BRAHMANE NAMA:
Swamiji, when we are reborn, will it be on this earth or some other planet?
Sir you said one is a higher bird (perched on the higher branch) and the other is lower one. But the Mantra describes them "sayuja" (conjoint), "sakhaya" (intimate). Can you please illuminate this aspect of the Mantra?
