Genesis 3:4
The serpent said to the woman, "You will not die. For
God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be
opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and
evil."

"Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", chapter 2:
Harry sat up and gasped; the glass front of the boa
constrictor's tank had vanished. The great snake was
uncoiling itself rapidly, slithering out on to the
floor - people throughout the reptile house screamed
and started running for the exits. As the snake slid
swiftly past him, Harry could have worn a low, hissing
voice said, "Brazil, here I come... Thanksss, amigo."

All of us own a "tree". The spinal column with the
spinal cord and the two strings of the sympathetic
nerve is called the tree of life. The force that runs
along these 3 channels, esotericists call the "serpent
fire". The crown of the tree is the brain, and what
lives in the brain? That is the human intellect! That
is the serpent that tempted Adam and Eve to eat of the
fruit of the Tree of Good and Evil.

In my theory that Harry Potter is the oft repeated
universal message of liberation, I have told you that
Harry is the new soul-force that is born in the heart
of the seeker. This force enters the blood stream and
hence spreads throughout the body.

James personifies the heart's longing for liberation.
When Harry is born, and has reached a certain stage of
maturity, the new force in the blood begins to affect
the head, the intellect is set free as it were. When a
person has a "lily" that is totally enclosed within
its petals, it is very hard for him/her to understand the
message of liberation. The mind is focused on earthly
things. If you explain the teachings of liberation to
a person like that you might just as well explain it
in Swahili or Double Dutch, because they won't
understand it. Their "serpent" is imprisoned in an
earthbound cage, as it were. But once the new soul is
born and it begins to enter the head it will set the
intellect free. The mind can then soar to great
spiritual heights. It will easily understand spiritual
teachings and will become a great ally of the soul in
its long, arduous quest for liberation.
