The Spiritual Wisdom Seat
The Serpent
symbolizes the feminine functions of spirituality, wisdom, fertility, wholeness
(i.e. healing) and chaos. The Spiritual Wisdom Seat (elsewhere called the
Bodhi Seat) is (always) empty, hence signifying absolute openness, that is to
say, the unlimited potential of Spiritual Wisdom. Anyone can sit on it. The Sitter
symbolizes (indeed, enacts) the masculine function of limitation. The sitter
creates a relativised view of Whole Spiritual Wisdom, i.e. he runs an
application upon the open Basic Operating System of Spiritual Wisdom. In
other words, the sitter limits and therefore decides, therefore relativizes
the unlimited potential of the feminine. Whole
Spiritual Wisdom, being non relative, is conserved virtually. The sitter,
i.e. as local and relative application of the masculine function of spiritual
limitation, is not conserved. Taking
position upon the Spiritual Wisdom Seat, and observing coolly, clearly and
distinctly with full concentration (Sanskrit: samadhi), the wonder,
completeness and perfection of the true nature of thingness and of being
revealed. |
