You must realise that we are leaving the era of the word ( masculine ), religious book word religion etcetera and entering the era of the image ( feminine ). As regards music videos in general,you may recall in thirty years time the music associated with a video. Would you rather dance to a romantic tune with your life partner(this is our tune) or listen to an effing and blinding mishmash of vile cursewords? Your choice.

I have to say that the end of the video, starting at around 8:50, is not only stunning artwork, but also a realistic rendition of a kundalini experience. It is probably the video that is the closest to illustrating what my kundalini experiences have been like.

On another note, while I do occasionally enjoy a blinding mishmash of vile cursewords, there are no such words in this song. IHere are the lyrics:
We barely remember who or what came before this precious moment,
We are choosing to be here right now. Hold on, stay inside
This holy reality, this holy experience.
Choosing to be here in
This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in
This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal
All this pain is an illusion.
Alive, I
In this holy reality, in this holy experience. Choosing to be here in
This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in
This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal
All this pain is an illusion.
Twirling round with this familiar parable.
Spinning, weaving round each new experience.
Recognize this as a holy gift and celebrate this chance to be alive and breathing.
This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality.
Embrace this moment. Remember. we are eternal.
all this pain is an illusion.

In case of Tool I always wondered whether they had experiences because of drug use. While I like Tool the way they describe experiences, both in the music and in videos always seemed clinical, sterile and absurdly strange. Many of their figures they portray in their videos seem to be victims or pushed into situations beyond their understanding. Many of their songs seem to be about negative experiences, and the conclusions seem suggest aggressive means of overcoming them.

Actually Tool made me think back as a teen.
I attended one concert and Maynard was chalked white in white drawers, and had red spots going down his front. They were at his chakras. (I somehow suspected they had some Indian context to them, something spiritual, but I could not place it - what a weird thought that was!)
So, together with this depicting of Kundalini, Oneness, the main chakras, a song called "Third Eye" seemingly depicting a shamanic soul retrieval, I think Tool or at least their songwriter have genuine experiences. But also their lyrics overflow with mentionings of pain, inflicting pain on yourself, an obsession of digging inside, an overemphasis of radical catharsis and a general deep tornness, and sometimes flat-out aggression. I wonder if either that is due to strong issues the songwriter has, or to uncontrolled and therefore sometimes frightening drug experiences, or both.
