    I was wondering. When Ra (via LOO) talked about the industrial revolution it said that wanderers incarnated with ideas about the revolution and then shortly afterward wanderers incarnated with the reality of it.

    An idea that was also repeated by Benjamin Franklin, a wanderer of note, who used to do the same thing in his early life by preceeding ideas by writing cartoons in his newpapers.

    I wondered if that meant that if we were to look at our science fiction media, it offers us a tentative view of our future.

    Two series of note that might be worth considering are the ever popular Superhero's, and the less well known but interesting 'The 4400'?

    You should check out soundless dawn's youtube channel. He explores the psychedelic meaning of modern media productions and suggests recurring themes that seem to implicate a message from some collective super conscious that we are all a part of, he considers media the collective dream. He calls it synchromysticism.

    It's also really well done with lots of great visuals.

    Science fiction has paved the way for science fact for a while now. The satellite was thought up by Arthur C Clark, as just one example.

    Yeah, I think I remember something like that also. When the atom bomb was being built. Spiderman or Batman or one of them like that were fictionally experimenting on a bad guy cracking an atom in order to make the bomb.

    Some intelligence agency wrote to him and said, 'knock it off' and they had to withhold that issue.

    Now, the 4400, which I will be very interested in until I have finished watching the episodes. It is about people being kidnapped from earth at different times and coming back in a ball of light, with special abilities such as telekinesis. Eventually, the authorities realise that the chemical in their system allowing them to do this is a drug called promicin and they make up an 'Inhibitor' to stop these abilites.

    Eventually promicin itself gets mass produced, but the trick is that 50% of the people that take the shot die, and the other 50% gain a 'unique' ability. Such as one was able to clean the polution in a stream. Or heal.

    The plot goes in the direction that the future are the people that took the 4400 and changed them and did it to prevent a catastrophe, in which the rich profitted and the rest of humanity basically died out. Therefore, the 4400's unique abilities are there to help people.

    There are also a group of negatives who went back and work as the most rich people. Ten of them, in order to keep the future how it was.

    Now. I don't know how much resembles the truth. But the 50% thing sort of hints at the 'harvest' senario. Where some of humanity will repeat third density so will not be able to be on the earth when it manifests 'true colour green'. I just find the series fascinating.

    However, it is also possible that such series have the effect of increasing peoples wonder and therefore their seeking? And doesn't necessarily relate directly to the truth.

    I've always thought that Star Trek had much truth in it, and actually very Law of One-based. Although, hopefully, there will be less shoot-em-up in our future! I think they added the obligatory violence (though relatively sparse compared to other shows) to get viewers, but their main focus was on Law of One-based concepts like The Prime Directive, advanced scientific concepts like alternate dimensions, etc. Overall, a very positive series, all of them!

    I wouldn't say this is true of the vast majority of sci-fi flicks, though. Most seem to be prophetic of an STS future, rather than an STO one. Movies such as The Matrix, Terminator, etc.

    And, while there is much that is good in the Star Wars flicks, they do focus predominately on, well, war. So I'm not actually a huge Star Wars fan.

    Ha, reminds me of that silly quiz:

    Which do you prefer?

    Dogs or cats?
    Beatles or Stones? etc.
    Star Wars or Star Trek?

    Star Trek!

    The guy who wrote, Deep space nine, went onto also write the 4400.

    I agree with that. The prime directive seems to be on the same level as 'free will'.

    I personally wonder sometimes, it seems there is a point where it becomes necessary and beneficial to 'shock' a person or people into understanding something.

    Stargate SG-1 was one that I think had a lot of truth in it. I remember David Wilcock talking about how the first parts of Stargate, with the Gua- ould, were correct right down to the symbolism use.

    Entangled by Graham Hancock. Anything else similar out there?











    Quote:Has anyone read it? What did you think?



    I read it about 15 months ago and loved it! And I am Desperate to read
    something similar to it and I wondered if anyone could recommend
    something? The thing is that I do not like fantasy. Basically I want to
    read fiction containing themes from LOO!



    Thanks in advance [Image: smile.png]
