The son is kneeling down here in front of a pile of snow and rocks.There is a snake on the snow & another one at the bottom left corner behind the flower.
Anybody knows what the snakes indicate here?
There are 3 different spiral staircases going upwards towards the sky and one snow capped mountain-way leading up towards the sky too. He has four stairways to heaven.

All he need to do is get on one of them to reach heaven. He looks more like a explorer who is about the start his journey.
If all his goals are to reach heaven, then why does he need four different paths to reach there. He wants to experience all the different paths that lead to his ultimate goal. He is a person who revels in the journey itself rather than the goal or destination.
There is a beam of light & 2 diamonds and a golden cup are floating in that beam of light.
Any one seeing any significance of these objects in the beam of light?
probably the beam is showing him a glimpse of the brilliance of heaven. Does he needs to be lured by the heavens (by showing their brilliance) so that he will take a journey there? I don't think so. He wants to explore & reach heavens just as much as the heavens want him to reach them.
