Subject: [K-list] Cobra and Vulture
From: Ra Kumar Sankar


On 2004/04/06 02:15, Ra Kumar Sankar posted thus to the K-list:

 > On the prominent forehead of the mummy mask of Tutankhamon sits a
vulture and a cobra.
 > I have found reference to a griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus), so what
does this represent ?
 > I've found reference to protection, but there is much more to it than
that.
 > Is this not unbalanced ? Perhaps the Pharaoh himself is the masculine
element.

> Vulture is the cobra inclined downward.
> Vulture in the sky is attentive on the dead bodies downward
> The cobra arising from above, involved in enjoying the sense-objects,
> is the vulture
> Particularly, if its involution is below the will chakra (the 3rd)

> This causes the noise of the fluttering of birds. Hence, the
> validity of the analogy

     Vulture does not protect. The gods and goddesses of the nether
region fade away with the serpent rising.
     They are the powers of the cosmos embodied corresponding to the
nether region chakras in which there is involution
     That is why, the worship of these gods failed with Moses, the
worshipper of the One True God.
     Lack of balance is the sign that these powers are of the nether region

Thanks and kind regards
RK Shankar
