I'm out!!Vote Quimby.

Nov 18, 2008 - What is the meaning of all this? This video is insanely trippy.. [and I'm stoned =/] my friend told me something weird like "this video can't be from this earth its something unnatural" while he was stoned last night... it made me wonder what this song is all about?

Nov 18, 2008 - i love how right when they get into the enlightenment phase, the climax of the video and song in my view, the whole mood of the song changes dramatically to fit the video. I tried listening to this song alone without the video and the effect was lost, I rarely pick up on the symbolism of their video's but the way they sync is amazing. Amazing band and song and an insane trippy visual experiance. 5* and favorited

Nov 18, 2008 - This looks like it could be the end of parabola, and the beginning of the music video vicarious, like the skeleton in vicarious is who this man transforms into, because think about it, this guy has the eyes in his palms like in vicarios and the two eyes in this video floating up to his forehead could evolve into the snake creatures in the vicarious music video. but thats just my theory. :D

Nov 18, 2008 - The kundalini is said to be an 'energy coiled up, like a serpent, at the base of the spine'. When this energy is 'awakened', it enters the spine, rises up along it, & is seen or perceived as a luminous serpent by the person having the experience. Once it has risen into the head, the luminous rod pierces the top of the head. When this happens, the person is said to be 'illuminated'.

Nov 18, 2008 - thanks for this part of the video, i always liked the end of it best :D

Nov 18, 2008 - Hi.Good comment.Also,there's Tummo,or the Inner Fire practises in Vajrayana Buddhism,especially in HYT, and the purpose of these are gathering all the body's "winds,drops and channels" into one's central channel, which gives rise to the subtlest state of mind or Clear Light.These meditations are often called Chandali, too.So, this tool's clip would be very good visualization of this subtle process.I think, that's the real purpose of metal.Keep doing this shit, tool

Nov 18, 2008 - Guys.. I don't think we all have yet to understand the enormity of the ending of this video. I am in the study of meditation and enlightenment and I believe what this video shows is far far beyond what we can grasp at first viewing. I'm going to put this visual into practice.. Thanks Tool.. You know things that the rest of the world has to catch up on ;)

Nov 18, 2008 - Hi wonder if this is the same as in "christian philosophy/es", when the holly spirit enters you: like, different names for the same thing.

Nov 18, 2008 - T()0L!!!

ScapeGoat64 Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - This is as far from anything Christian as humanly possible. The video is about meditation, mental evolution and spiritual enlightenment. Which is why the character is transformed into a living chakra map awakening his mind's eye. Such practices are condemned and considered witchcraft by christianity.

tobicaster Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - you are right, but stop referring to christianity please...all these things go far beyond any religion (...except REAL buddhism...)

ScapeGoat64 Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - I was only replying to someone who referred to it being similar to the holy spirit entering your body or something like that.

coqui2086 Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - Your completely ignoring the mystical (gnostic) tradition in christianity. Granted, it's not main stream christianity, but it's a part of the churches history. Use your google-fu on gnosticism to get a quick overview, and maybe read 'The Third Christ" by Deepak Chopra for a litle more insight.

ScapeGoat64 Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - Yes, yes. I know all about it. I was simply referring to the more mainstream christianity.

Nov 18, 2008 - I interpreted the end as an expression of the state of our counciousness (eyes/minds eye) and how it connects with other bodies'. The councious state of ourselves is shown to be of non-matter; a seperate realm. Do you agree at all? Im interested to hear.-Jake.

Smaugrens Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - Not the same. You need to listen to the entire song first.
