The Naga Throne
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.
