This is the first installment of the Yoda's Wisdom Picks from the Thunder Series. More is coming…
 
In the Star Wars series we have come to know the little green Master who arguably has said the most enlightened one-liners in the cinematic history of the world. With deeply contemplative big eyes and spoken words that follow an unconventional word order, Yoda has become very recognizable for even those that may not be so familiar with the movies themselves.
 
Yoda has said many things that resonate with the truth as it has been shared in the Thunder books by MSI. And I am certain, that should Yoda stumble upon the Thunder books, he would smile and chuckle and perhaps say something like, “Hmmm… Very well written, the book is… Very strong, in this writer the Force is…”
 
Specifically there is a quote in the Second Thunder book that I am certain would have Yoda´s attention. The quote is as follows:
 
”Never in pride rely solely on your own strength. Help will come when you need it, even when least deserved, if you but allow it. Be receptive to the good flowing to you always.”
 
Rodavi, an enlightened Master himself, said this to Gana as a parting gift and urged him to remember it well, for it is both a blessing and a warning. This particular quote is then reiterated a few more times throughout the book, in various situations and by various Masters. The Truth never changes and the Teacher repeats it as long as it takes for the student to gain true understanding.
 
Yoda is fully familiar with that – having had students himself and having had to repeat himself many a time… even seeing that the student is most likely not going to listen very well, as was the case with Gana.

MSI wrote in one of his books, that for the enlightened it is a constant thrill to connect with another enlightened mind. For this reason, I am most certain that Yoda would be chuckling to himself as he reads through the Thunder books; and maybe a bystander could hear him say: “Ah…Tricky, the Master is.”

In our search for elementals and celestials in the Second Thunder story we were amazed to have come across twenty different types of beings! 
Celestials & Elementals:

1. Wood elves
2. Spring elves
3. Fall sprites
4. Wind spirits
5. Water nymphs
6. Fire beings
7. Flower elementals
8. Tree spirits
9. Brownies
10. Pixies
11. Naiads
12. Dryads
13. Gnomes
14. Dwarves
15. High Lord of the Fays
16. Celestial Gardeners
17. The Celestial Army and the Celestial Warriors
18. Mountain Celestials
19. The Fair Woman of the Earth
20. The human forms of the seven regions of light, the universe, each galaxy & each sun 

Did you find any type of elemental or celestial that we missed?
​Would you put the infamous evil Rakshasa on this list?

The Wachowski's would be the most skilled to make a movie about this book because it is:

• A story that operates on multiple levels.
• A book that can be read as a fantasy adventure, but also as a hidden history of mankind, and even as a human's quest and path to higher consciousness.
• A book that messes with our linear way of thinking, and introduces the idea of multidimensional reality, in which there are layers within layers of realities that can be experienced simultaneously.
• Entire lifetimes experienced in one frozen instant of time.
• In general, a novel that hints to the fact that there's so much more to Life, than what our minds are used to – boundaries and limitations – that we can actually experience in every day living.

Like MSI in Second Thunder, the Wachowski's have chosen daring stories for their movies – stories portraying the prisons of our minds, when we choose to believe in illusions of limitations; portraying boundaries, which the outer authority figures help to set up and maintain, and then exploit for their own benefit; and portraying heroes, who see behind the veils of deception, thus choosing to take on enlightening mankind, as their purpose of life.

The Wachowski's also show in the film Cloud Atlas, that they have been willing and able to tackle the challenge of picturing a soul’s quest through multiple lifetimes in such a way, that it even gives the impression that all of the lifetimes are happening simultaneously.
These are some of the reasons why I see the Wachowski's to be the ones turning Second Thunder into a movie. They would have the vision required to turn a book that works in multiple levels like Second Thunder into an uncompromised movie – one that not only touches the minds of those seeking colorful adventures of fantasy and science fiction, but also the hearts of those who seek deeper meaning and wisdom of Life.

And I'm sure it would be a movie that does not give the answers but rather raise questions, creates conversations and theories, and inspires people to turn within and find their own answers to what Second Thunder is all about. And to watch the movie again, and again, and again…
