   it, devitalize it, turn it into stone. Storm Thorgerson once said that the   
   third head on TDB cover keeps the two heads from talking. Maybe he was   
   referring to the material body    
   in which the ego/soul dyad is incarnated. A similar idea seems to be expressed   
   in the table tennis scene in the High Hopes video - when the tennis ball   
   becomes too large and heavy the two players find it difficult to play with it.

   unifies the two heads, like the Father in the Trinity, who is the source of   
   Son and Spirit. TDB front cover can be seen as an image of the Trinity. And   
   the Ely Cathedral in the    
   middle is The Cathedral Church of the Holy and Undivided Trinity of Ely. But   
   this Trinity is apparently mired in earth. It needs to be set free, so that   
   the Father's will is done on earth as it is in heaven."
