No      In Yoga theres a snake called Kundalini who is supposed to live at the bottom of the spine of each individual During orgasm or an intense meditation a spiritual entity called Samadhi is created symbolising the transcendental union with God Then the Kundalini is freed and goes up the spine all the way to the brain where it releases its venom The mixing of the venom with the brain substance create a union with God     Next verse The eyes of the Nile are opening imply that a whole universe of possibilities is opening as soon as the venom is released inside of you    So the snake has a constructive value      Yes absolutely In the Bible its a representation of evil whereas in Hindu philosophy its the symbol of creation and ecstasy     In the next verse theres the expression Serpent Kiss something Crowley discussed in length Then theres The Eye of the Sun The Sun is the symbol of the creator it represents the male side of life A bit further theres the female side appearing in the term Moonlight where the Moon represents the woman The verse goes Moonlight catches silver tears I cry and everythings revealed because silver is the colour of the Sun So you find here the universe with the male entity and the female entity both being inseparable     In fact the universe as seen in this philosophy is dual binary and any notion only exists through its opposite In other words there isnt any manichean separation like in the Christian way of thinking where good and evil are dissociated while trying to eliminate evil only the Christian system of values is monolithic All the other great philosophies encompass this duality of notions like the Ying and the Yang in China or the Jewish Caballah Well you know you have to be careful with all these notions because its all very complicated    I suppose that you gather many documents long before you start writing lyrics like Revelations      Oh yes I have a large library with all the main works concerning human mystic    Dont you think that its somehow a shame that the audience doesnt always understand what youre singing about as the meaning is apparently only understood by very few      No I think that as long as there is some mental energy coming out theres nothing to regret Here Im explaining everything in detail but if only a fraction of the lyrics stands out and touch some people then I think I wont have wasted my time You cant convince everyone because many notions that are not used are in fact unknown by the majority of people Whats interesting with this song is that you can take only one verse and you can reconstruct a whole new text make a brandnew song    And he only discussed part of the song
