Hidden Images In Revolutions

So, i'm pretty sure that everyone has seen the obvious "light-crucifix" at the end of Revolutions, when Neo is being sacrificed for the good of Mankind, right after he defeats Smith from within. Well, I noticed something else over the weekend that is quite unmistakable, and frankly, I'm not sure how I missed it the first time around. Well, after Niobe hugs Morpheus and thanks Neo, the scene goes back to the machine city, where the machines are taking neo's body away. After a few moments, the view switches to the Orange Code, and there is a large Lotus Flower surrounding the barge that is carrying away Neo's body. It looks as if there is an image of a person in the flower, i was thinking Vishnu or Buddha. In any case, this is a very powerful yet subtle image they snuck in there...any thoughts?

From Delusion lead me to Truth
From Darkness lead me to Light
From Death lead me to Immortality.

So, i think i figured it out. According to the Hindu Creation Story:

Before time began there was no heaven, no earth and no space between. A vast dark ocean washed upon the shores of nothingness and licked the edges of night. A giant cobra floated on the waters. Asleep within its endless coils lay the Lord Vishnu. He was watched over by the mighty serpent. Everything was so peaceful and silent that Vishnu slept undisturbed by dreams or motion.

From the depths a humming sound began to tremble, Om. It grew and spread, filling the emptiness and throbbing with energy. The night had ended. Vishnu awoke. As the dawn began to break, from Vishnu's navel grew a magnificent lotus flower. In the middle of the blossom sat Vishnu's servant, Brahma. He awaited the Lord's command.

Vishnu spoke to his servant: 'It is time to begin.' Brahma bowed. Vishnu commanded: 'Create the world.'



If you notice at the end, before it turns to orange code, the machine taking Neo away looks very much like a multi headed serpent(aka the Giant Cobra). Also, Neo is supposed to represent a reincarnation of Vishnu(the 7th actually, i think). So, as he is being taken away, from his naval emerges the Lotus Flower that you see in the orange code, with the Brahma in the middle, and he is to create(or in this case re-create) the world(the world being the matrix).

Some say it is the image of a Seraph: an angel with three layers of wings.

Never noticed that lotus flower, but I noticed Smith.

After assimilating the Oracle, Smith jacks up the matrix altogether. No doubt I'm not the first to notice his face briefly flashing in the matrix code as seen by I think Sparks, just after that scene.

*Neo*

there is no flower its neo and the light is his eyes glowing and the smith he fights at the end is the oracle cloned and neo lets agent clone him,the machine realises what neo has done so he surges electricity through his body.

Your idea of Neo being sort of like Vishnu is intriguing. I too have wondered if the "Ones" represent different incarnations of Vishnu.
However, in Hindu mythology, there is the concept of "Dashavatara," or the ten avatars.
The first four are animals or beasts, and the next six are human.
The tenth and final avatar is the Kalki, or a Hindu messianic figure. Alternatively, the tenth avatar is seen by some syncretistic Hindu groups as being the Buddha himself. Coincidence?
Consider that there are six human "Ones" (for six versions of the choice-based Matrix) and that the last one, Neo, is a messianic figure in a truer sense than the other six, even though they can be considered messianic (just as the other five avatars of Vishnu were, such as Rama or Krishna).
I have wondered about whether the systemic anomalies could represent the Dashavatara, because of those similarities.
As for the first four avatars, since they are not human, I thought that there might be four versions of the Matrix prior to the choice-based model, of which there are six versions, for which there were machine or program analogues to the One, but maybe not exactly like the One per se.
Perhaps the Merovingian was one of these program One analogues, instead of a human One, as some people on this board have suggested. Indeed, the first avatar of Vishnu was a fish named Matsya, and one of the legends of the Merovingian dynasty, besides the Christian one, is that they descended from fish. Coincidence?
The second avatar of Vishnu was a tortoise named Kurma. Kurma was portrayed in art with four symbols: a mace, a lotus, a discus, and a conch. The mace is said to represent knowledge, especially that which grants power over time. The lotus is said to represent detachment, such as the detachment from, though not disinterest in, worldly, or perhaps Matrixly, things. The discus, whose name is Sudarshana which literally means "beauteous sight," represents enlightenment. Finally, the conch is said to represent the origin of existence, from the point of origin, spiraling out to all of the heavenly spheres. With power over time, detachment (despite interest) in worldly affairs, a beauteous sight (which requires eyes) of enlightenment, and the origin of existence represented with spiraling, or fractal patters, doesn't this sound like the Oracle? The Oracle supplanting the Merovingian with her four major powers, rendering him an envious exile?
Now, as for the third and fourth avatars, Varaha and Narasimha, with their symbolism of a deluge and omnipotence of God, respectively, I'm not quite sure what to make of them.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this "Dashavatara" model of the "One" cycle?

P.S. Then again, the number 6 is the first "perfect number" in the mathematical sense. That is to say, it is the first number that is the sum of its proper divisors.

P.P.S. Maybe it's both?

Underscoring the instability in Afghanistan, an Afghan man in a stolen pickup truck sped onto the tarmac as a plane

carrying U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta was about nike-air-jordan.org... to land

on Wednesday, an extraordinary security breach in a southern province next to where Sunday's massacre took place.

No one on board the military plane carrying Panetta was hurt when it landed at a British base in Helmand province.

Defence officials played down the incident nike-air-max-pascher.org..., saying the

Pentagon chief was never in danger.

The pickup nike-air-max-pascher.net... truck crashed into a ditch after it sped

across the runway ramp and the driver, whose motives were unclear, emerged from the vehicle in flames.

He was being treated for burns, a Pentagon spokesman said, and a member of the NATO-led coalition was also hurt when the

vehicle was stolen.

Panetta arrived for his nike-air-max90.net... unannounced visit three days after the

massacre in neighboring Kandahar province. Although Panetta's trip was planned before the shooting, it comes as Afghan

civilians and lawmakers alike demand answers.

Foremost among those demands is that the soldier responsible be tried in Afghanistan over the shooting, one of the worst

of its kind since air-max-soldes.net... U.S.-backed Afghan forces toppled the Taliban

in 2001 for harboring the al Qaeda masterminds of the September 11 attacks on the United States.

Despite those calls acheternikechaussures.org..., the U.S. staff sergeant

who gave himself up after the villagers, including nine children and three women, were killed has been flown out of

Afghanistan, the Pentagon said on Wednesday.

The New York Times, citing an unidentified senior U.S. official, said the soldier had been flown to Kuwait. CNN also

reported the sergeant had been taken there.

The commander of U.S. and Afghan forces in Afghanistan, General John Allen, made the decision based on a legal

recommendation, a U.S. official said.
