OUROBOROS The ancient symbol of Infinity

Approx 1600 yrs BC, King Tut,s tomb in Egypt revealed many ancient symbols and hieroglyphs , one being an enigmatic symbol of a serpent biting its own tail. Later the Greek imported it and named Ouroboros meaning tail eating serpent.

I was only interested only for Victor Hugo in one of his Time winning Literature used its reference.

Subsequently it was also found  in some forms found in Hindu myth ( Dancing Lord Shiva ).

in the endeavor of deciphering the symbol sages and wise men began to relate the symbol as the ancient perception of Infinity, Cycle of natural birth from death, Immortality of life or Soul and a vague idea of

Immortal Infinite Absolute God.

The Alchemy the used the symbol in the Lab to transcend the cycle of life and death and to conquer death from an still unfound fanciful grotesque  Enigmatic Philosophers stone.

Here a serpent devouring its own tail thus rebirthing itself , with the tail though invisible still persists and the natural cycle goes on.

Even in Hindu myth Lord Shiva  with a snake in one hand, snake being the symbol of regeneration ,cosmic dances to destroy the universe allowing Lord Brahma beginning the reconstruction .

And in the Holy Quran , Allah says , its He who is the beginning , He is the End , He is the Visible , He is the Invisible and He is all powerful over every thing else.
