"There is a very specific symbolic reason for creating a triptych. What is the significance of the number three? Three is the shape created when dualism is healed. When there are no more opposites and all schisms are healed there is ascension, enlightenment and awakening. God is realized when everything is known as one. This relationship forms a triangle. A holy marriage of God, man and woman. A new creature is born.

Now what happens when you take that perfection and put it back into duality? Three into two equals .666: A fallen state which can be called the beast: A creature born of the union of perfection into imperfection. John warned us of these guys, didn't he. Beware of these daemons. Many have control of some powerful humans." - Nielsen
