Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom question

I never thought he was under the influence of the black sleep. If so, who did it to him?

I never thought he was under a spell. Just thought he was evil.

Mola Ram wasn’t under a spell.

Please don’t ask these types of questions. If you do, they’ll write up and film an Indians Jones 5 with time travel or something to answer these types of questions…

Indy apologizes to Short Round I think.

Indy says something like Mola Ram wasn't worthy, or disrespected Shiva. He says something to him while hanging on the bridge when they start burning through the bag.

For many years I didn't know it's a prequel to Raiders. Indy knew. The boy in the cage tells thems it's "like" a nightmare you don't wake up from.

I watched Temple of Doom this weekend and thought of something. When Indy is under the black sleep of Kali Ma or whatever, Short Round wakes him up by burning him. And Short Round does the same thing to the Maharaja kid. It seems people being woken up don’t have memory of what they did while under the black sleep.

At the end of the movie when Indy and Mola Ram are hanging off the bridge, Mola Ram grabs the stone and it burns him, then he falls off the bridge and gets eaten by the alligators. So was he woken up at that moment and had no idea what was going on, only to instantly fall to his death and eaten? Because that’s fricked up.

Come find out, in an earlier script, Indy was supposed to slip and fall from the bridge and get caught by Mola Ram, who would have woken up and saved him. So Spielberg and Lucas must have had the idea in their minds, but went with Mola Ram dying. Did y’all ever notice this before?

Kali is a Hindu goddess that brings emancipation, enlightenment, liberation, and release (Egyptian equivalent is Isis). So, Short Round is actually acting as an "illuminati" style Prometheus character that is defying the will of the Gods when he "awakens" Indy, lighting a fire in the heart of Indy through the infliction of pain. Mola Ram (Amun-Ra) is the Sun God. He sacrifices human hearts (the center of the soul) to Kali (aka Isis) once they are pure. Mola Ram is seeking the stones to bring about the end of Wheel of Suffering. Metaphorically, devotion to the Sun God is seen as slavish and is here represented by the children working in the mines.

Mola Ram falls off the bridge and is eaten by crocodiles, the Egyptian god representing the deity Sobek. Sobek here is probably meant to encompass his "protective" side, or "he who loves robbery", as the fall of Mola Ram allows the continued robbing of souls as they are "woken" up by the fire and allowed to be sacrificed to Sobek (crocodile aka the dragon) who represents rebirth into the Wheel of Suffering. Sobek loves robbery as when a heart is weighted down with guilt, envy, gluttony, etc, the heart, or soul, is tossed to Sobeck to be eaten which results in the soul being reborn into the Wheel of Suffering.
