First of all, let me tell that this is the first time that i post something here in the Tool Page Opinion, not that i haven't heard of Toolshed before. And second i'm portuguese, so any mistake that my writing might have please forgive me (or not).
My opinion about Parabol/Parabola, is that this music is a celebration of Life. Parabol seens to me like a monologue where a person starts to think about the only thing that stays permanent in all his life, which is himself, is being. He realizes that is body his only a box, a confined space containing something, which is himself, "This body holding me/Be my reminder that i'm not alone", we will never be alone once we realize/discover ourself. And then comes the ultimate revelation, "Pain is an ilusion". Pain doesn't exist, is merely a strong beat in the box, we sustain intact inside. Feelings are a different pain in a way that are related to ourselfs, not to the body.
Parabola is starts imediatly after the person realizes this, like a door that opens reveling us that there are no limits once we realize that the body in merely a shelter. We don't have to be confined, we can disconnect ourselfs to the limits input by our phisical conditions...Human mind is the most powerfull weapon that we have, once we know how to use it.
I have read several opinions, i have learn a lot with then, and compared to then, my seens to...I don't know, simple perhaps? Well, but this is what the music does to me, reminds me that pain is an illusion, i'm not alone, there are no limits to me, Life is a gift that i have to learn how to use.
Open mind all the time.
