Prabhupada explains that the swans they go to the beautiful clear lakes where there are nice lotus flowers growing and the swans especially drinks the nectar from the stem of the lotus flower and those who are swan like people they find their enjoyment in going to those pious places with the nectar of Hari katha and Hari kirtan is always being sung. And such swans are always seeking the opportunity to come on a pilgrimage to those places. But, the crows, you will never see crows in a nice, beautiful lake with lotus flowers; they are not interested; it is boring to them; the taste of nectar is too subtle for them; they like nice crude stool, urine and garbage; rotten garbage, fresh garbage is not so nice; the more rotten, the more taste for a crow. Wherever there is big nice garbage and sewage; you will find a pilgrimage of crows; eating, drinking, sucking, fighting over it and that is their form of enjoyment. So subject matters of this material world and sense gratification; it is all like garbage, it is all like sewage and those people who are like crows they go on pilgrimage to those places where they can best enjoy their senses and hear about all kinds of worldly sound vibrations.
