I admire your confidence in your vision of the future Mirko! So, since you have such a clear vision, what is it that you do see happening, if not an awakening? I actually wrote a novel about what I see, and I’m curious if our ideas are similar. Though, I DO see an awakening. In fact, it’s going on right now.

Our current society model is based on material pleasures, so a paradigm shift will have to occur for most people to find pleasure in more spiritual aspects of life.

Please do not confuse the idea of peace, harmony, and equality with communism. The world that I believe is coming, is one where we realize we are all one, and therefore we all want to share since it benefits us all. Certainly there are elements of communism in that concept, but I think the biggest difference is that it’s not being forced, nor is it undesirable. It’s the realization that we are all part of one body, and that when the right hand smashes the left hand, the entire body feels the pain.

Smitty, if you believe bad things are coming, you’re creating a self-fulfilling prophesy for yourself. Major changes ARE definitely coming, but there are many possible outcomes to this. Do you want to jump into the timeline where it ends in disaster, or ends in a more peaceful, loving, harmonious world? It sounds like you’ve already made your choice, but I hope you decide to reconsider. You have nothing to lose! Literally.

Thanks a lot for sharing your insights with us lost geeks!
I do totally agree with you about the spiritual dimension that clearly has always been an integral part of the show and propably will play an even larger role on the upcoming endgame events of the last season. There’s such a strong connection to the current condition of the planet. Many people believe we will to go through a phase of global mass awakening. That’s not exactly what is going to happen. But a lot things will change…

Remember the Three Jewels of Bhuddism
Where Dharma is, is also Sangha. There’s no Sangha without Buddha.

No thanks.

“Material greed” and “selfishness” are simply issues of security. If people are giving these things up, it is for the more selfish issue of survival. The collectivist ideals are about a whole and not the individual.

If you think happy times come out of that, oboy….

I believe bad things are coming. Perhaps the “spiritual” lessons of “Lost” (sorry, just another drama making someone bunches of money and a little fame) will help the “masses” deal with the drudgery that will be their lives.

If you have a sense of what you are meant to do and are proactive about doing it, life will be a breeze. However, if you have no clue, or resist, you will constantly struggle to go a different way than fate has declared you must go because you have already done so.

Except for I think you can be doing all the right things and major trouble can still befall you so “breeze” might not be the word I would use, maybe peaceful.
Ultimately what Im getting to here is I don’t believe “fate” is gonna land you on that “plan A” path all by its onesies. If this where the case what would be the need for rearview mirrors on cars? I mean fuck it, just rip em off and slam that bitch in reverse. Its our destiny right? No need for locks on doors, no need to get out of bed really. In the case of our show it doesn’t matter if they all go back to the island together right? Cause whatever is supposed to happen is gonna happen anyways… Lets just all have a martini and wait for it…

So In that regard I don’t feel the same. I feel the majority of people 99.999999% of humans don’t fulfill their destiny. Not plan a, b or c. Shit most of us probably end up on plan Z. I do feel that it has to do with the materialism you mentioned among other isms that have led us astray. Hopefully there is a spiritual revolution in the making and we can return to that path, myself included.

So Im curious to see how this theme plays itself out in our show one way or the other Im know what I know and I love the show! PEACE!
