Solar Snake “It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light.” --Aristotle

“In the beginning, darkness was hidden by darkness with no distinguishing sign; all of this was water. The life force that was covered with emptiness arose through the power of heat. Desire (kama) arose in It in the beginning; that was the first seed of the mind. Wise Sages seeking in their hearts, with wisdom, found it to be the bond that connects existence with non-existence.” (Rig Veda 10. 129).
