Metaphor
temptation
trilogy
the mind, body, soul.
the soul is the tree, the mind is the apple, the body is the serpent. The trilogy, third dimensional meaning is found through the minds learning of self. The body is to nourish the mind in its quest for growth. The body (snake) has many desires which conflict with its true mission. Desire for pleasure becomes distractions to the mind in its exploration of the soul. Soon the distractions become the meaning to life for many, the path becomes muddied, the search is forgotten, evolution becomes stymied, the species fails, possibility is lost, the soul is forgotten, left on its own with out the means to see itself.
