Basket:Krishna, Moses ,Karna,Jesus


It is more than distinct evidence that the super powers super warriors have a single common factor that drives their birth or life after that birth.All of them were put in a basket and then transferred into a basket of reed and carried either by the river or carried by hands.
It is also to be mantained that unlike moses and karna who had divine powers as they were messengers of God;Krishna was rather supreme god so he was carried by hand over the top of head and seshnaga is a representation of the protective cover that stands over consciousness as protective cover.The hands that carry the basket over are the hands of man but force of nature that sustains conscious thoughts over the material mind.
The symbols in the story of baby Moses in the reed boat interface with the symbols in several other legends. Note that the basket is a symbolic representation of the womb, and the story is one about birth or incarnation. The grail doesn't hold liquid, it is suspended in liquid. Remember that Moses had a brother and sister, Aaron and Miriam. In Hebrew 'aron' means chest, ark or box, and Miriam can be easily seen as connected to Maria, Mary and the notion of waters.We remember that Moses was put in the Nile in a sealed reed boat, and rescued by the pharaoh's daughter. After rescuing Osiris, Isis takes him to a reed swamp to hide him. In Gilgamesh, the Lord suggests that people tear down their reed house, and build a cubic sanctuary from the flood. Our main concern in these stories is water and a container, not for the water, but to traverse the water in as a vehicle. All the containers in these stories represent the womb, the tomb, and the body; also the cosmos by extension.

Jesus born in a manger: kept in a reed basket:-
Most people don't know that a manger is a feed trough for animals, and while you mainly see them depicted as wooden with straw in them, in actuality many are made of stone and look not unlike the sarcohpagus from the Great Pyramid.The manger is not a place for animals to rest, but a thing that they eat from. The notion of birth, incarnation, is being tied to the notion of eating and the idea of the joining of a spiritual and an animal nature into one being. The cobra and vulture are the symbols or these upper and lower kingdoms, the body and the spirit, and can be seen on the pharaoh's headdress. Symbolically Egypt represents the body and Israel the spirit. Remember that there were two Hebrew Kingdoms as well.

Karna was carried in a basket too.Karna represents sixth sense of mind.Something part of our Perception ;a part of creationism not evolution.So Karna comes as a gift from nature not as something we acquire.
Thus each of this warriors of history have resembled in birth and actions.They fought their battle for dharma.
Now lets view what can be the meaning of basket as an entity.
I have three propositions.
1)The basket resembles a cosmic seed: a protective cover for the gyaan or supreme.
2)The flow of the basket downstream may be a rerpresentation of the minds of the people who new that the alluvial silt that comes down the river is responsible for farming.
3)The basket represents the sky.a part of geometry many may contradict why but i feel this can be explained as a continuation of this blog at a later instant.The layers of the reed basket represents the horizon.When one lies in a basket and flows one can only see the sky above.This may be symbolic as when we look up the horizon we can c the sky or the entire universe.
This brings us to the interesting dimension of river.Let me tell river does not necessary mean flow of water it is symbolic of the flow of time.
Rivers also Symbolize borders, boundaries, transcendence, mirrors,the subconscious, and persistence.The alluring belief that river represents "baitarani" a river crossing whom man enters the heavenly abode cannot be ruled out.The border between realism and sur realism.
River also signifies mind.The mind has a normal flow but at times goes through stagnation.The river that links into the ocean has more than mere existence.A river like a mind goes through temporary turbulence.A basket in the river of mind suggest the seated consciousness within.The basket flows with the mind.Its how we let the basket reach the proper bank on either side of the stream.
