Rishi Dirghatamas in the Rigveda, revealing the mystery of the origin of creation, has said that -

'''(Rigveda1.164.20)'''
It means that the two birds are sitting side by side on the same tree. One of these two birds tastes the fruits of that tree while the other bird is not eating the fruits and doing a subtle inspection of the movements of the first bird eating those fruits. The first bird in it is the metaphor of the person who is doing the deeds while the second one observing the bird is the metaphor of the divine, who is closely observing the movements of that first bird in order to give fruit according to its deeds. From this hymn, it is expressed that there are two major elements in the creation of the universe.
