The Spiritual Codes in Film: Craig Seaton on Star Wars, The Matrix, Avatar & More | Who On Earth?

He’s back. And this time, he’s armed with a lightsaber, a sandworm, and possibly a blue tail.

In this celebratory return of friend of the show Craig Seaton (remember him from Season 1, Episode 2?), we go full popcorn-mystic and deep dive into the spiritual, symbolic, and mythic threads running through six of the most iconic stories ever beamed onto a screen:

✨ Star Wars (of course)

🧙 Lord of the Rings

🕶 The Matrix

🌀 Avatar

🌪 Dune

👁 The OA

Together, we unpick the ancient truths, soul codes, and initiation journeys woven into these cinematic epics—through laughter, big questions, and the occasional impersonation of a Jedi mid-meditation.

⚠️ Spoiler alert & public service announcement: If you haven’t seen any of the above, sort your head out. Cancel work. Ghost your family. Ditch your mates. And start binging—because this episode reframes these tales in ways you won’t forget.

Craig, as ever, brings his blend of reverence and humorous truth-seeking, reminding us why storytelling is the original spiritual technology.
