There Is No Death

There Is No Death looks at the process and cost of finding answers and meaning within new age spirituality and religion by reimagining a 1959 Theosophy booklet by the same name. The spiritual movement of Theosophy, established in 1875, amalgamates esoteric concepts from various religions, including hidden masters, cosmic cycles, and direct communication with divine beings. It seeks to reappropriate elements from diverse belief systems while promoting the interconnectedness of all life forms, spiritual evolution, and the notion of karma and reincarnation, inviting both curiosity and skepticism from observers who argue that Theosophy appropriates elements from various cultural and religious traditions without proper understanding or respect for their original contexts.

Critics and skeptics have accused the Theosophy co-founder, Helena Blavatsky, of deception and fraud during her lifetime, particularly regarding the alleged supernatural phenomena associated with her and the authenticity of some of her claims, but regardless of the accusations Theosophy found a base following and permeated the minds of many in positions of influence such as Dutch painter Piet Mondrian, filmmaker George Lucas, and Anthroposophy founder Rudolf Steiner.
