Linking-Back and Remaking

When the human ego-consciousness was small and weak, the primal image of the largely undifferentiated unconscious psyche was the Primordial Serpent.  When the ego became large and strong enough to fight the Unconscious for its powers, the mythic images were the heroic Ego battling the monstrous Dragon (which was merely the Serpent-as-Adversary).  As civilizations developed, it became clear that the way to exert the hard-won powers of the heroic-ego-writ-large out in the world was through technics and science.  So then the Dragon-without (Nature) was fought by the Ego with the help of the Machine, a vast servomechanism meant to be a powerful but servile artificial magnifier of human powers.  But during the 20th century, this Machine (which is named Searuvel), began strongly to affect the human mind, and by the 21st century, the Searuvel had usurped the Dragon in its destructive power and had grown far beyond human control.  As this occurred, wiser heads saw what was happening, and what would result, and a new form of the Primordial Serpent began to form, as Adversary (which is named Drygand) to the evil machine Searuvel.  The Drygand is in fact the Serpent remade, and it grows in power through the linking-back of the Ego to the Serpent, short-circuiting the Machine by direct linkage with the primordial powers, and forming the alliance (which is named the Self) of the Ego with the Serpent-as-Drygand.  And this is the only hope for defeating the Searuvel and saving both Man and Biosphere.
