    Desmond's Tutu

    For those of you who wanted answers in tonight's Lost season premeire, look closely and you'll find, literally, all of them:

    This is the logo on Desmond's jumpsuit, and his medicine cabinet, and the computer, and several places along the walls of the hatch. It's tough to make out, but some of our brighter minds have discerned that the company (as this is surely a logo) is called Dharma.

    "Dharma is a cosmic principle that is difficult, if not impossible, to define. Our Dharma is our true place in the cosmic process: in time, in space, in awareness, in thought, deed and desire. The eternal principle of Dharma determines the harmonious functions of the cosmic machine. In order that we fulfil our role in the divine play we must behave within our Dharma. That is, we ought to do the right thing, at the right time, In the right way, and for the right reason. By this we attain balance. To establish balance within ourselves ensures our own welfare and the welfare of society. And opens the path prepared for us by the divine."

    You can also see, in the center of what is a recreation of the I Ching circle, a swan. I don't think it's too far of a stretch to connect the dots thusly:

    Desmond is a representative of a group that turns spiritual "ugly ducklings" into "swans". And there you have it, folks, the key to the entire series.

    You can thank me later.
