The last Obstruction, that of the Illusion of Perpetual Self as Cozmic Absolute, is literally obliterated when Tommy's Mom "Smashes" the Mirror. Tommy's Enlightenment is now Complete. He Proclaims, "I'M FREE".
So now the Work of Divine Tranmission begins. Tommy's Ministry uses the Practice of PinBall and the Teaching of Deaf Dumb and Blind SIMPLICITY to advance the Attainment of Universal Mind OneNess. We must view Sally Simpson as Everyman's MIS-IDENTIFICATION of Tommy as EARTHLY Savior in EXACTLY the Same Way that Jesus was perceived as Promised Warrior God, the One who would FREE Israel from Roman Rule.
The Opera concludes with Tommy's stern admonition that, "We're not gonna take it" --the "it" being the use of booze and drugs and the "mister normal" Conscious of Status Quo inertia.
