Ophiolatry is one of the oldest cults on Earth. In Hinduism, and many other cultures of faith, serpents represent wisdom and mystery. The serpent's ability to travel without walking, to shed an old skin in favor of a new one, and in the case of some with poison, the ability to kill even after they are dead, all seem to enforce the concept. The serpents could be a crown, or they could be whispering the secrets of enlightenment. In the case of the Buddha, the nagaraja is protecting the enlightened one while he achieves his goals.
