I don't know what I think about this plant, but it has always looked to me like two somethings (people?), like a child on the left, parent on the right, for example.
And the root has always looked to me like something rather ritualized, probably because it is arced (like fingertips touching) and it is symmetric.
But now, having looked at nothing but Christian literature for the last few days, the root looks a bit like someone in prayer, or bowed down in front of the bigger shape. Amazing how intensive exposure to a certain genre influences everything you see after that. I hope it will wear off after a while!
I agree that the top, the "flower", looks like a crown.
