The Paradox (Part 6)

What if the ego isn’t something to eliminate — but something that has to mature?
Snakes in a Vein is a short philosophical film that uses a playful parody of Snakes on a Plane to explore a serious idea:
how the ego develops restraint, how power is learned through cost, and why memory may belong not to the ego — but to the observer beneath it.
Using the metaphor of venom, containment, and calibration, this video explores:
• why immature egos “over-inject” force
• why restraint is not weakness but economy
• how Earth functions as a training ground rather than a punishment
• and why ancient cultures may have used the serpent not as a villain, but as a mirror
This isn’t a horror story.
It’s a story about learning when not to strike.
