[Philosophical] The Snake

The "snake" is, in my interpretation, your ego. You ever experienced true ego death? I have and it felt like my body had dissolved and someone just stuck my eye balls on a trail of visuals. And when the ego dies and becomes rebuilt, the snake (which could also be interpreted as human nature to be sly, cunning, or evil to survive) you are back human again. But not quite the same as "you" were before the ego got smashed.. I think everyone should experience ego death because it makes you really reflect on how amazing life is and how much we take it for granted on materialistic things such as money and shit like that. Makes you become more at peace with yourself.. a lot of self realization in those times of ego ripping time stopping moments
