Theos-Talk Archives (October 2004 Message tt00318)

Dear Dallas,

To answer your question... I was speaking of the "mass media" where any 
useful dissemination of the theosophical metaphysical ideas and principles might be 
exposed, and that might provoke further scientific investigation. 

Such information could be expressed through either books or articles, but 
preferably, documentaries and feature films that could speak to the amateur and 
professional scientists and technologists, as well as the interested lay 
public. This, of course, depends on our individual creative efforts -- which must 
have behind it a credibility that could speak directly in the language of 
current science... But, in a manner that that didn't go beyond plain vernacular 
English that could be understood by everyone. 

However, didn't HPB say that the scientists will eventually reach the 
metaphysical truths for themselves, and that we should direct our attention toward 
writing the Secret Doctrine in our "own words" -- so as to "spread broadcast" 
the scientific understanding of karma and reincarnation to ordinary people "in 
the language of this Age"? And, shouldn't that language be that vernacular 
English expressed orally, graphically, and audio-visually through the mass media? 

So, Unless there are some among us who have the access to those media, along 
with the necessary skills of writing, directing, producing, etc., plus the 
metaphysical knowledge to express the theosophical science in the common language 
of this age -- I suppose, there's really not much the rest of us can do but 
"wait and see." </:-)>

But, just in case there is anyone or group out there with a good movie idea 
based on an attractive and interesting plot that might be able to disseminate 
the scientific truths of theosophy -- I would be happy to offer whatever advice 
or assistance I can -- based on my many years of creative, technical, 
scientific, and production experience in the communication arts industries (as well 
as my lifetime's study of esoteric and occult metaphysical science and 
philosophy). See:

Incidentally, I also have a movie series project, "The Solarworld Chronicles" 
(over twenty years in development that the state of the moviemaking art has 
now caught up with :-) following in the footsteps of the Star Trek and Star 
Wars genre -- that, besides exciting, adventurous and entertaining story lines, 
has a direct relationship to the next hundred year "action" cycle of the 
Theosophical Movement, and demonstrates as well as explains the truths of theosophy 
from a scientific and spiritual, as well as a practical POV. The project also 
has a parallel spin off in the publishing world as a series of novels, comic 
books, etc., (which might actually come first with the right talented writers 
and artists ready to go to work). So, anyone with the right connections, 
skills or talents, or financial resources is welcome to participate in this project 
and help complete its further development (final screenplays, storyboards, 
and scripts) leading to financing, initial preproduction, production, and 
eventual book publishing and TV/Theatrical distribution. For an overview, see:
