A film by Kirsten Doyle
bridging the gap between modern science, ancient philosophy, and religion.
Summer 2023 Production Start (Est)
This forthcoming documentary will tackle a seemingly ineffable subject. Kirsten Doyle will highlight her experience with the metaphysical and present the most compelling scientific and historical evidence that proves human consciousness survives physical death. She will also prove that reincarnation is an essential part of the human life cycle intended to enhance both the individual soul and the entangled energy that comprises the collective unconscious. Kirsten will highlight the stunning similarities between all major religious belief systems and use this film as an opportunity to showcase the interconnectedness of humanity.
Her work is extremely complex and it’s important to know, her greatest influence for this project is the Division of Neuroscientists at the University of Virginia who have a collection of 50 years of case studies of astounding Near Death Experiences, Children with Past Life Memories, and cases of psi phenomena. She highly recommends you watch this video from the School of Medicine at UVA and peruse this recap of a 2019 event she hosted in Boston.
After 13 years in major gift fundraising, Kirsten has taken note of the egregious lack of diversity in philanthropy within the U.S. medical system. Her work in fundraising for the top medical research in Boston, has given her insight as to why most of these scientific and academic experts, studying consciousness, are grotesquely under-funded and rarely publicized by the administration and Board Members of Universities and top Hospitals. Most Board Members are older than 50 years old, white and have religious beliefs that prevent them from seeing the true facts and empirical scientific evidence coming out of the top academic research teams in the world like the University of Virginia. This film will be a candid, entertaining and captivating conversation about the most polarizing subject in history and Kirsten is confident that she is the only one capable of presenting this evidence. After 8 years of research she has yet to find one sentence, one fact that contradicts her claims and she believes this documentary will save many people from the fear of death.
Kirsten recognizes that the natural human trait of prejudice as well as ambivalence towards colonialism prevents most people from recognizing that Asian, Latin, African and Oceanic cultural history shares many fundamental belief systems. All of the American and European concepts, communities, and movements mentioned below were founded, often secretly, using the exact tools, rituals, and practices utilized by these Indigenous cultures.
all humans are interconnected in magnificent ways.
Kirsten has compared thousands of Near Death Experience first-hand accounts and identified the common themes and narratives. All are reflected in the ancient, indigenous, and original religious history of the worlds most popular religions. Gnostic Christianity is the best example of this but there are countless other examples.
Over the last few years, while gathering her research, Kirsten has observed the influence that ancient Hermetic Traditions have had on Gnostic Christianity, Theosophy, Kabballah, Rosicrucianism, Zoroastrianism, Chiliasm, and Eastern philosophy. She examines how principles of “alchemy” have long been a part of 15th to 18th century European academic study, side by side with occult rituals practiced by the Sumerians, Babylonians, Druids…etc. Kirsten is constantly educating herself on the histories of the legendary philosophers-alchemist-chiliast-astrologer-ministers of the Tübinger Stift movement. Paracelsus and Johann Valentin Andreae are her heroes and several of her ancestors are included amongst some of the most prolific alchemists who were also respected religious leaders under people like Martin Luther.
Also, ancestral patterns, mitochondrial DNA and inherited trauma are a large part of her research. Using her 1000 years of personal genealogical history, she can find hundreds of examples that support her additional claims that families and communities often reincarnate together. Such proclamations are consistently verbalized in Near Death Experience accounts from trusted people who momentarily died, while in the hospital, and learned astounding information while in a “heaven” state. All humans are connected and the lovers and enemies in ones life are often a person’s closest soulmates in the afterlife. This concept is also consistent with the thousands of NDE’s she studies. Life is “earth school” and every tragedy, joyful moment, and experience is intended to teach lessons to help the soul evolve and become enlightened. And, good and perceived “evil” must exist together. If Earth was heavenly, with no tragedy or pain, then there would be no opportunity to demonstrate compassion, no need to be generous, and no chance of learning selflessness.
In this film, Kirsten highlights parallels between the rituals of the Eleusinian mysteries and esoteric literature that influenced the allegorical J.R.R. Tolkien cosmologies, William Blake, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and thousands of well known authors, all utopian literature, prophetic texts and modern Masonic rituals. She’s particularly interested in the work of Renee Descartes and Giordano Bruno and finds Sir Francis Bacon’s process of editing the King James Bible to be a fascinating and unending study. She studies Hermes Trismegistus’ teaching’s and how they shaped the ethos of many seemingly unrelated philosophical movements from the U.S. Freemasons to the Kabballah practices that honor sacred geometry, as well as the transformative Amarna period of Egypt.
She studies subjects including the spiritual ideology of genius’s like Giovanni Pico della Mirandola, Pythagoras, the Chaldeans, the Pennsylvania Dutch, and lesser known mavericks like Johann Jacob Zimmermann. His creation of Pennsylvania’s Chapter of Perfection/Woman in the Wilderness sect was founded on the principles observed by ancient, mystical, Hermetic practices. Zimmerman was one of the first people to organize the first German settlement in the Schuylkill Ridge region of Pennsylvania, with the help of William Penn. Zimmerman was also an ancestor of Kirsten’s. He died while enroute to the New World, leading a group of dedicated pietists seeking peace. Johannes Kelpius continued his teachings, and promoted solitude as the best way to connect with the Divine. This work influenced the founding of this nation and Presidents Jefferson, Truman, Taft, Coolidge, Monroe and others have been documented as admirers of his work. While in Germany, Zimmerman created the first Equidistant Conic Projection star charts of the northern hemisphere in 1692 (a tool in astrology) while serving as a professor at the University of Tubingen. Sir Isaac Newton, in published manuscripts, credits Zimmerman’s discoveries related to the cosmos and publicly regarded Zimmerman as a brilliant influence and profoundly important innovator in the fields of science, astronomy, religion, and alchemy.
Did you know that Quakers, Christian Scientists, Mormons and many other movements were founded as a result of a personal mystical experience (a.k.a. psi phenomena). Astrology and psychic contemplation was used by the Wise Men to locate Jesus Christ upon his sacred birth, yet the mention of the ancient practice of the Zoroaster’s is rarely known by the most vocal critics of mysticism. A novice glance at a few historical books or scholarly papers will outline the fact that the concepts that the Catholic church deem “heretical” have been the foundation of that very religious movement. Here is a fun fact you probably do not know: For 30 years, the President of the World Phenomenology Institute named Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka was best friends with the Cardinal, soon to become the Pope John Paul II. She was a Dartmouth College Professor and they were both Polish. She created the Institute because she believed in the ancient traditions that support the concept of psi, ghosts, past lives…etc. They were co-authors and philosopher soul-mates whose intimate letters (over many years) were recently purchased by the Smithsonian and include multiple examples of how dedicated Christians and people who believe in such Indigenous mystical beliefs can find shared beliefs. They spent many summers discussing philosophy at her family farm 2 miles from Kirsten’s home. She was a respected academic, however, this friendship offers a taste of the unique and complex relationship that Christianity has with it’s ancient origins of which it’s deemed “heretical” for hundreds of years.
Kirsten counts the following people as some of her many influences: Sir Francis Bacon, John Dee, Giordano Bruno, Reverend Howard Thurman, Marcel Vogel, the Dogon culture, Dr. Ian Stevenson and the Division of Perceptual Studies at UVA, Lev Grossman, Catherine Obianuju Acholunu, George Gurdjieff, Thich Naht Hahn, Alan Turing, William James, Dr. David Sinclair, Emanuel Swedenborg, and Johannes Kepler’s Harmonices Mundi, Paschal Beverly Randolph, Pauline Hopkins, Nicolas Roerich, Madame Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, Theodor W. Adorno, Plato, Jack Parsons, Marija Gimbutas, Bob Marley, Austin Osman Spare, and her Mom,.
She’s also extensively studied the work of Sir Isaac Newton including his use of alchemy and friendship with the most prolific mystics in Europe at that time. He spent 50 years studying the divine geometry used to design the Temple of Solomon. Kirsten has also extensively researched the Temple’s subsequent influence of the creation of the Beaux-Arts architectural movement and how the concepts of Feng Shui/vibrational energy/sacred geometry were employed to design the most powerful government buildings, financial buildings, masonic temples, early churches, and universities in America. The Medici family, also a follower of the mystical arts, were the original backers of the Beaux-Arts movement and it’s university teachings.
It’s important to mention, Kirsten is an admirer of ALL religions and faiths. She can find evidence that all religions are correct in their belief about God, Heaven, and life purpose… in many instances (not all, but many). It’s all about perspective and often, personal prejudices lead people to misinterpret the truth. Consider the fact that the teachings of Theosophy influenced both Adolf Hitler to ignite the Holocaust and later, influenced the United Nations to build the Lucis Trust meditation room, a place of peace. This project, funded by the Rockefeller Family, was the result of the Rockefeller’s funding and admiration of Alice Bailey who was a dedicated follower of the teachings of the founder of Theosophical Society, Madame Helena Blavatsky. Her work is esoteric and can be interpreted in many ways. It’s not for the faint of heart but it is an example of how two people, from different backgrounds, can read the same document and take away contradicting belief systems. Blavatsky was also a Buddhist who influenced Sri Lankan regions to protest colonialism and protect the sacred Buddhist teachings. Her birthday and death is celebrated annually in most Sri Lankan schools. Blavatsky and a man named Henry Steele Olcott spent many years working together to present her mystical messages in long, dense, highly complex books (Secret Doctrine for example). She was celebrated by people like Albert Einstein, a Jewish man, who once called it his favorite book. Eventually, Olcott used his power and white privilege to protect Buddhism in America and he even designed the Buddhist flag still used today! He is credited with demanding “Buddhism” be considered a valid religion in the U.S. at the national World Religion Conference and he paid the fee to have this religion be considered a “valid” belief system. His work is the reason the government recognized Buddhism as a valid belief system as early as the 1800’s.
The study of geomancy and the geological study of land, crystals, and vibrational energy is also of interest to Kirsten. Did you know that when determining where to colonize the New World and depart across the Atlantic, the use of ley lines were used to select the locations where the first settlers would settle. The land selected was determined to posses the positive vibrational energy due to it’s Meridien lines. The European royal astrologer/alchemist, John Dee, utilized his divination and scientific abilities, gained from years of academic study and Hermetic/Enochian rituals, in order to help Queen Elizabeth I settle the New World. He used astrology, ancient practices and ley lines to determine the most powerful and plentiful vibrational land for colonization existed in Massachusetts, Virginia, and the Northeastern Canadian Lands. Kirsten grew up on the property that was one of the first American settlements, near the Native Indigenous land on Wigwam pond in Dedham, Massachusetts. This history was eradicated from the Dedham Public School curriculum as have the names and histories of the hundreds of Indigenous communities who existed in New England for thousands and thousands and thousands and thousands of years. Funny enough, Native American Art, Buddhist sculptures of the Maitreya, and the world’s most mystical alchemical manuscripts are all in the possession of the top IVY League school libraries and in the private library collection of the worlds most powerful families. But why?

If you have inquires regarding this project or you’d simply like to learn more about some of these cases or this medical research, I’m happy to email some clips and articles. Please contact me at the link below and know how much I appreciate you for reading this long, metaphysical, word-cloud.
Pictured, below, is her favorite John Singer Sargent panel from the mural titled Triumph of Religion found at the Boston Public Library. Kirsten lives with her husband in Quechee, Vermont and when she’s not researching her film, she is “wondering” the forest behind her home contemplating ancient mysteries. Music is her God.
And, stand-up comedy is one of her favorite forms of Art.
