Hi knowflakes!I just got home from seeing the movie "The Prestige"...I thought I might enjoy it (which I did) but I didn't think I would be so surprised that the entire theme of the movie revolved around the discoveries and mysteries concering Nicola Tesla! I would love to discuss this with anyone, and also learn more about the subject. I highly recommend seeing the movie..it is very thought provoking and interesting! peace,

I saw The Presitge on Friday afternoon.I was also shocked that Tesla was a main theme of the movie... condsidering how he was not exactly treated well in the states. Attempted to read a book about him last year, but couldn't get into it; guess it's not the right time to study him! My SO, Mr. Virgo, has studied Tesla and was very happy that he was in the movie! ------------------

I saw the movie today, not knowing what The Prestige was all about (went with my landlord), and I choked on my popcorn when the name Tesla was brought up. I was so surprised! Then I was so fixed on the movie, esp. Tesla. It was a confusing movie, I was like, "hollon, WHAT?" but good nonetheless and I get the plot arranged in the end (phew...). Christian Bale is yummy... how can I never realised that before? And would you believe that David Bowie played Tesla? I would never have guessed!IP: Logged |

I watched that movie and not until today did i notice that was david bowie..emily told me..i had to go to WWW.IMDB.com to confirm...totally tripped me out. Unfortuanately I figured the whole movie out in the begining during the old chinese guy thing. Dont worry, you wont get it...lol. but it was cool. The ending was shocking...what a person would go through to succeed.Wednesday...did you get that popcorn out..lol. I choked on my spit.lol. i had no idea he was in it...total shocker for me and total "THINKING OF LINDA" the whole movie. it was packed and all I could think of was "I am the only one in this theater that knows about Linda." Well I daydreamed that..lol

Hahaha, about the whole popcorn thing, well let's just say I made the loudest noise that day and it wasn't even a touching scene or whatever. And yeah, the whole time all I could think of was, "I know who Tesla is!" (not so much of Linda, I must admit) The whole electricity thing, that Edison stole his idea and stuff, I KNOW IT. I almost screamed to the people who were there, "I know Tesla! I could tell you his stories!" It was just overwhelming.Truly, he was a fascinating man. IP: Logged |

You know the funniest thing..the movie starts off with him in colorado..and I thought about Linda and Tesla...as he walked to the house and it said Electrical fence...I thought of Tesla...i sweaR I did, but i thought...its about magic...that has nothing to do with him...THEN when he showed the paper and it said TESLA...I thought holy SH*T...lol.IP: Logged |

Hello again...greetings and salutations, my friends...I watched it today. A really entertaining film. I enjoy films like that, which are well thought out and full of interesting ideas and different onion layers.... I keep thinking about what what the magician said at the end when asked if all the trouble he went through was worth it, to which he replied that it was- to see the look of wonderment on people's faces. If they knew about how the act worked, this would be lost. If we could solve all the mysteries of life which we wanted, would we loose life's magic?   IP: Logged |

LOse Life's Magic?hmmmm, we lose it, here on Earth in the material plane...Each beginning is glorious...
Magical, filled with LOve and Light...that
our souls brought here, from Heaven....Star
Seeds. ... this material world, of the senses, ahhhhhh...
once an act, is done, that goes against
the Universal God Laws, time starts, the
Carousel Ride begins, A cycle, when the
laws are broken, karma is created...through
generations, mistakes become more and more,
we forget Our True Self...
burdened, by our own actions....amnesia...
sets in.... til we reach the bottom of the bottle, genie...
and we reach for God and the Light and the Love and the Magic! Mastership...Immortality...Millions of years
of Soul Magic! Helping the ALL...in Soul Form... but as we watch, and help from Soul form...
there comes a desire, to create, be co-creators with God MOther and Father...
so we chose a life of Matter...another
cycle of experience... we have done this for so long, that we could
not possibly fathom this...lost in the material world... The Magic is always there...we must choose
to see it, not grow accustom to it, and
always have wonder for it...here, this is
hard to do... Be, as a child, and see the Wonder!  I don't know if what I wrote makes sense, but anyway, I tried, hehe when we got bored here, we started competition, games, races, for our
amusement...building ego.... ah, what a mess  IP: Logged |

Yes, Lotus, sweetie- it DID make sense. I do catch your drift. I do think of these possibilties sometimes....but to know them.....Are you good at knowing things, in your heart? Any tips for me? Geminis like to pick & analyze.Lovely pics of Tesla, Fayte! Just like the machine in the film! Can anyone recommend any good books on Tesla to me? I'm more intrigued after this!  IP: Logged |

ListensToTrees tips, ask God questions, and wait for the answers, they come in many forms, a passage in a book, through animals/symbols, dreams...
a bumper sticker...and once you have received..
so many of these affirmations, there will be
a knowing, also, you will be connected to the all, and conversation, is always there..information, to listen to, and see...
it's truly beautiful...to feel the awe and splendor of this Miracle of Life...
and Our True Self Oversoul = God = Our Angel-form... I think you will be seeing, lots of Magic and LOve! Your Heart is Open IP: Logged |

I don't think I have met anyone that knows as much about Tesla as Fayte.m does! I think I got more and more into reading him because of you! lolI got the wizard one and the occult one..still waiting for the last one to come, but he is unbelievable. turns out (from wizard, his cockiness destroyed him also.) isnt it amazing that men with great minds can sometimes just lose it...lol. rarely do you see women acting like that...
