Let’s say Daniel is correct and you can’t change things but Dharma is working on being able to change things. Dr. Chang commented that he hoped those watching the video about the upcoming purge that they couldn’t prevent it but he hoped that those in the future could. Widmore is working to be able to change the past, and using Desmond, because he thinks the island is his. Hawkings is working to make sure what happened, happened because she knows that once you can change the future all hell will break loose.

Isn’t that the kind of the whole point of the Valenzetti equation and the numbers? To try to change something to stop the end of the world? One of the ‘factors’ needs to change in order to stop ‘whatever happened, happened’?

108 is :
-number of minutes for countdown in hatch
-number of days they spent after the crash till Mumbata
-they were rescued on 108th day by Penny…which was January 8th 2005…or let me put it this way

8.1.’5

Do you see that every third year something happens…2001 Desmond and Juliette came on the island…2004 Losties crashed…2007/08 they are coming back…

Next thing…Jack was sitting in seat 23 on the plane…so maybe its the numbers of their seats….hm…

70h is the time left until portal opens again…in a sense that in 70 hours the island will be for some time in the same time as O6 which is 2007 end/2008 start…

The term Dharma is an Indian spiritual and religious term, that means one’s righteous duty, or any virtuous path in the common sense of the term.
In Indian languages it contextually implies one’s religion. Throughout Indian philosophy, Dharma is presented as a central concept that is used in order to explain the “higher truth” or ultimate reality of the universe.
The word dharma literally translates as that which upholds or supports, and is generally translated into English as law. The word “dharma” can also be translated as “the teachings of the Buddha”.

and you now what I saw ….
Six realms
1. Deva
2. Asura
3. Human Being
4. Animal
5. Hungry Ghost
6. Naraka

The Bhavacakra or “Wheel of Life” is a very useful and popular teaching tool. It is a kind of diagram which portrays these realms and the mechanism that causes these samsaric rebirths. In this depiction, the realm of the Devas is shown at the top, followed clockwise by the realms of the Asuras, the Pretas, Naraka, Animals, and Humans. Close examination will show that the Buddha is shown as being present in every one of these realms.
Leading from the human realm to the outside of the wheel depicts the Buddhist path. (Epstein 1995, p.15-16)
The areas between the six spokes represent the six forms of unenlightened existence.

The wheel has a form of our very own “donkey wheel” that Ben pushed…coincidence? Dont think so…and its like a PORTAL of Buddhism.. and let me tell you about Richard Alpert…Harvard professor who changed his name to Ram Das after being kicked from Harvard for using LSD…he went to India and started learning about Buddhism..he wrote a book BE HERE NOW….or BE NOWHERE …or BE KAHANA….ring any bells…KAHANA means nowhere…book is very interesting…on front cover theres an empty chair with footprints on the floor…hm…Jakob? The movie is great…I have it for some time…and the book is very interesting…page 108 is very very interesting…look it up…and not to mention that he did his experiments in 50s went to India in 60s and published his book in beginning of 70s…[/quote]

Jack was actually in seat 42F[/quote]

Jack was sitting in seat 23, remember Anna lucia was sitting in seat 42(aka the wing)

i also had a theory… Jack was the leader of the 42 survivors and Anna lucia was the leader of the other 23 from the tail section. Both match their seat numbers in the plane…

It might of already been discussed , not too sure.
ps. forgive my spelling

6 numbers
6 items (baseball glove, book of laws, sand/earth, compass, comic book and knife)[/quote]

Jack was actually in seat 42F

and if each O6 is one of the numbers, they all add up to something else that will save the world, i guess returning to the island together

so isn’t 108 the number of days after the crash that the O6 got rescued off the island? hmmm.
