Lost and nature

The Religion of LOST
We get several conflicting messages about what exactly is the religion of LOST. First, the primal principle seems to be to protect the Light in the tunnel. Everything that happens on the island ultimately revolves around this one crucial point. Its the smoke monster's mission to destroy the light so he can get off the island and its Jacob's mission to protect the light so that...what? So that evil won't take over the earth? Or that the underworld won't take over the earth? Its not fully clear.


So what to make of it? Tuning into nature, spending time listening and acting on that inner voice, protecting the light thats inside of you so the smoke monster can't extinguish it, listening to the subtle nudges that the Universe gives you and acting upon those nudges. All of these can turn you from a simple viewer of a drama to potentially something much greater. A candidate.
