I took a quick peek at the myth of Rama, to see if there was something interesting there.
I do believe it’s possible Rama’s child is something transcended. In Hindi Sanskrit texts Ramachandra (yes, Rama IS short for Ramachandra) is the hero of an epic poem.
His story is about king Rama, his life, the love of his wife Sita and his battle against the demonic king Ravana (and the Merovingians were a line of kings in France hundreds of years ago).
Rama, as an incarnation of Vishnu, is not born of man and woman. Rama met and fell in love with princess Sita, and mastered the usual line of tests to marry her.
At one point a conflict arose between Rama and a stepmother (The Oracle?). Rama and Sita went into exile (!) in the forest, where the demon-king abducted Sita. Rama won her back after many adventures. But since Sita had spend time in another man’s harem, Rama refused to accept her, even though he’d made her pregnant. She was sent away and bore twins, he carried their fathers mark.
Yes, Sita bore Rama twins.
Now, it’s of course not necessarily so, that Rama’s wife in the movie bore twins (or that they have anything to do with our ghost twins). I’m interested in the mark of Rama. And actually, very much indeed in WHAT these two programs are.
What’s their purpose. And what makes the child so special.
Has anyone stumbled across her name? Hope? No, she was already freed. Then again, maybe she was unplugged, but her residual self-image, her digital self remained behind in the Mero’s Limbo. To protect their child… and so on and so forth?!?!?
Goodness, Sifer. Couldn’t you open a new thread, instead of posting your latest idea in every single thread, so they go off-topic?
I know you WANT to lead people onto the same line of thoughts as you're on, but not everyone is here to be lead. Some are just here to read other people's ideas, thoughts, suggestions, cookie-recipes and comments.
Sifer> Exactly!
I'm in this thread to read about "The father of the little girl."
Back to Rama Chandra, the father of the little girl.
As we’ve established, in Hindi legend he’s the 7th incarnation of Vishnu.
The ten avataras are 1) Matsyavatara (fish, related to a deluge, and an arch-like story),
2) Koorma (tortoise, a story about a mountain, poison and lots of other funky stuff),
3) Varaaha (boar, to save a goddess),
4) Narasimha (the man lion, to destroy a demon king),
5) Vaamana (the dwarf, to destroy the demon Bali),
6) Parasurama (the warrior, to quell the arrogance of the Kshatriya rulers who harmed the sages and unprotected mortals.) !!
7) Rama (the perfect human),
8) Krishna (the divine statesman),
9) Buddha (The enlightened One, to purify Hinduism of excessive ritualism).
The 10th avatar which is yet to appear is Kalki. It is believed that at the end of the current epoch, there will be a deluge when Kalki - the tenth and the last avatara of Vishnu, will ride forth on a horse to redeem humankind and re-establish righteousness.
The 6th incarnation is kinda intersting, but man, if I can make sense of this right now.
JediHDM> Actually, old Jewish/Christian myths probably borrowed some ideas from Hindi myths (they're older).
But I can’t help feeling, that we’re MISSING something.
Neo is the sixth anomaly, and the sixth incarnation of Vishnu is THE warrior. Now, of course, just because the number 6 figures, it doesn’t HAVE to be relevant. But then why would teh Wachoskis call the man Rama Chandra?
The problem is, Rama is the 7th incarnation.
Perhaps we have to think of perfection in a slightly other way when it comes to Rama. We know from ETM that Rama and his wife in “Revolutions” are programs. But maybe they have gained emotions? Maybe they’re “perfect” programs? The best of both worlds? And have created a program (the child), which they were able to insert into a human pod-baby? We know the AI’s CAN take over human bodies (The Smith-Bane connection).
I’d very much like to see the child as Neo sees her. Maybe that’s were we get a connection to Seraph?
