DHARMA計劃
出自Lostpedia
Dharma Initiative(Department of Heuristics And Research on Material Applications Initiative)(自发的物质应用探索和研究部门)是一个研究计划，但自從小岛上的肃清發生後便消失了。
大部分关于DHARMA Initiative的信息来自于天鹅站的指導片和The Lost Experience的虚拟现实游戏
通过许多影片，我们得知这个自发组织成立于 1970 年，组织者Gerald DeGroot 和 Karen DeGroot，是密西根大学的两位博士候选人，该组织的财政支持来自于丹麦的企业家和军需品大富豪Alvar Hanso以及他的 Hanso基金会。声称是为了产生“由科学家和理想主义者进行的大规模的社会研究,研究关于地球的气象学，心理学，超心理学，动物学，电磁学以及乌托邦社会（静态）研究)
注：该自发组织的最后一个研究主题在The Swan的指導片中并没有被表达清楚，也就是说关于乌托邦社会研究还是未知的。（只有一些关于乌托邦社会工程学或乌托邦社会主义的建议）
在Barracks的录像中说明了该自发组织的任务是为了了解岛屿的独特特性，使得世界更加和平并促进人类进步。
The Lost Experience的斯里兰卡录像透露出Valenzetti等式是DHARMA Initiative的一个部分。DHARMA Initiative在小岛上的目的是用科学研究操纵环境改变Valenzetti等式的核心因素从而改变人类的命运，同时他们也对研究小岛上独一无二的特性感兴趣。Hanso 基金会的Hugh Mcintyre说采访如同游戏的一部分，Dharma Initiative的资金曾经在1987年被裁减，但被裁减的原因还未确定。最後，Dharma Initiative的队伍在小島上被The Other用毒气瓦斯毒死。雖然他們在Barracks裡全部被消灭了，但是具体日期卻不知道。

[编辑] 名称
《迷失》官方网络电台透露DHARMA这个名字是几个词的首字母。稍后就在虚拟现实游戏-The Lost Experience中出现，经过Rachel Blake（那时的知名黑客Persephone）的线索，玩家在Hanso基金会的网站 玩记忆游戏，渐渐的当玩家玩到第42关（数字中最大的一个）时这些首字母的全称就出现了：Department of Heuristics And Research on Material Applications（自发的物质应用探索和研究部门），稍后这简称就在斯里兰卡的录像中和[1]中被确认了。
尽管启发式思维是一种特殊的技巧引导一个人的注意进行学习，探索，或解决问题,但我们仍不知道这个名字背后的真实解释是什么.并且在斯里兰卡录像里,Alvar Hanso（站在DHARMA缩写前面）说“它也代表一个正确的方法”，在梵文中的意思请参考下文。
[编辑] DHARMA Initiative的研究倉
DHARMA Initiative经过一系列在小岛上研究倉所进行的研究和活动，他们似乎是小岛上唯一拥有先进文明的人。他们全部拥有（或曾经有）电力和自来水以及不同种类的设备（举例来说，机械部分：住宅、计算机、医疗器械，等等）每个设备都有它自己的八边形标志-DHARMA Initiative图标。
从研究倉的教育片中可以知道在1980年至少有6个研究倉（The Swan指導片說它是6个中的第3个，而The Pearl指導片說它是6个中的第5个）。然而，总共有8个不同的研究倉在剧集里被发现，所以可能有另外一些研究倉（和指導片）是建在1980年後的，并且（或者）还有一个未知号码的研究倉并且没有关联任何指導片，出现在影片中。
在防爆门地图上，The Flame的編號被标为4号，但在地图上它的位置却不正确（防爆门地图上的注：所谓的4号位置-The Flame）The Staff被标为6号（防爆门地图上的注：…但可能是 6 号）但这却和外泄的The Orchid指導片中DR.'Edgar Hallowax' （也叫Dr.Marvin Candle）明确的提到The Orchid是DHARMA Initiative的第六站相冲突。
在Lost第二季DVD的"研究倉的秘密"章节中，说The Arrow是第一个研究倉，而The Swan被当成了第二个研究倉，但这是一个错误的信息。（这可能是根据参考机身部份生還者和机尾部份生還者的发现次序编写的）
[编辑] 已被發现的研究倉
Note that some of the stations have names related in some way to the stories of Apollo in Greek Mythology. Apollo was born on the island of Delos which at the time floated freely in the ocean and was difficult to reach because of swirling tides surrounding it.
| 圖標 | 名稱 | 編號 | 用途 | 名稱的意思 |
| 弓箭站 | 未知 | 数学研究/补給和储藏供应 | Apollo was the god of archery. |
| The Staff | 未知 | 医學研究/储藏药物 | The Caduceus staff originally belonged to Apollo. Apollo was a god of healing (and of plagues). |
| 天鵝站 | 3 | 电磁学研究/电磁通讯的屏蔽 | Swans are sacred to Apollo, Zeus assumed the shape of a swan when he raped and impregnated Leta, Apollo's mother. Swans encircled Apollo when he was born on an Island. |
| The Flame | 4 | 與外界聯繫 | Apollo was the sun god. |
| The Pearl | 5 | 心理学研究/观察各研究倉的狀況 | Hindus associate the pearl with the moon. Artemis, twin sister to Apollo, is the moon goddess. Could also be a literary reference to "The Pearl" by John Steinbeck. |
| 蘭花站 | 6 | 時空穿梭 | Possibly references the station's greenhouse exterior. |

| 窺鏡站 | 未知 | 指挥水下的潜艇/干扰小島與外界聯繫的信号 | Most likely a literary reference to Lewis Carrol's sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland titled Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There. |
| 暴風站 | 未知 | 毒气控制/為小島提供电力 | Possibly a reference to William Shakespeare's play The Tempest, which takes place on a mysterious desert island. The wave symbol could signify the ship that was wrecked on the island due to Prospero's magic. |
[编辑] Presumed stations
The Door was presumed to be the Hatch to another station, but when opened by Sayid in 第2季 第23集 it was revealed to be a facade covering a rocky wall, however, this may be the aborted #7 station on the blast door map but there are no facts to prove it one way or the other.
There may also be a meteorological station, as meteorology is listed among DHARMA's main research areas in the Swan orientation film, and notations on the blast door map reveal a potential location.
[编辑] Possible stations
These were documented on the blast door map but not yet discovered:
- Two stations labeled with "C3?" and "C4?".
- A seventh station that was crossed out. It may not have been built, or might have been destroyed, or might be the presumed station the Door. It may also have been crossed out because they were not sure it existed, explained by the "Unknown!" notation above it. Elsewhere on the map, the text "Alleged location of aborted #7. Large number of underground springs, heavy water table" appears. The text may refer to the seventh station.
- Numbers written in the corners, in the form C#/# appear only on the jigsaw puzzles and do not appear on the actual blast door within the show.
- There is a yet-to-be-seen station called The Orchid whose orientation video has been released to the audience. The purpose and abilities of this station are yet to be determined.
- The yet-unseen Temple is represented on Ben's map by a DHARMA logo. However this is insufficient to conclude that the Temple was build by DHARMA or was indeed a station.
[编辑] Names of the stations
One set of the stations has names related in some way to the stories of Apollo in Greek Mythology. Apollo was born on the island of Delos which at the time floated freely in the ocean and was difficult to reach because of swirling tides surrounding it.
- The Arrow
- Apollo's most common attribute was the bow and arrow. He was a god of archery.
- The Staff
- The Caduceus staff originally belonged to Apollo. Apollo was a god of healing (and of plagues). Apollo traded the staff of Caduceus to Hermes for a lyre.
- The Swan
- Zeus assumed the shape of a swan when he raped and impregnated Leta. When Leta gave birth to Apollo, the island on which he was born was encircled by a flock of swans. Swans were afterward sacred to Apollo.
- The Flame
- Apollo was a sun god.
- The Hydra
- Apollo sent a crow to fetch water. The bird stopped to eat figs and wasted lots of time. Knowing Apollo would be angry, the crow captured the Hydra and attempted to blame it for causing the delay. Apollo saw through the ruse.
The Apollo theme also might extend to the Apollo Candy Company and their product, the Apollo Candy Bar
Other stations, which also feature inverted DHARMA logos, seemed to be named according to a different scheme.
- The Pearl
- Much like a pearl inside of a shell, the name could possibly be alluding to the fact that it is in the center of the island and central to the DHARMA Initiative stations, both in its surveillance capabilities and geographic location. For Hindus, the pearl is one of the planetary gems, associated with the moon (N.B. in Greek mythology, Artemis, the twin sister of Apollo, was the moon goddess). The Pearl could also be a literary reference to John Steinbeck's novel, "The Pearl"
- The Looking Glass
- The most apparent reference seems to be towards Lewis Carrol's sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland titled Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There.
- The Tempest
- Most likely a reference to William Shakespeare's play The Tempest, which takes place on a mysterious desert island. The wave symbol could signify the ship that was wrecked on the island due to Prospero's magic.
[编辑] DHARMA Initiative orientation films
To instruct its members, the DHARMA Initiative has created several orientation films. Known films are:
- The Barracks video - An introductory video that new members of the Initiative were shown upon reaching the Island. Marvin Candle explained the purpose of the Initiative and security protocols for the Barracks.
- The Swan Orientation film - Instructing the Swan station's inhabitants about the protocol, supposedly as a consequence of an unspecified incident. The film includes a short history of the Initiative.
- The Pearl Orientation video - Instructing the Pearl station inhabitants on monitoring other stations.
- Outtakes of the Orchid Orientation film - Introduced as a teaser for Season 4 at San Diego Comic-Con 2007.
- The Psychology Test Orientation Video - Revealed in The Lost Experience.
- The video filmed in the Sri Lanka Video - Dated 1975, provides a broader history and overview of DHARMA.

[编辑] DHARMA Initiative logos
The DHARMA initiative is represented by a series of distinct 8-sided logos. These octagon-shaped logos used by the Initiative appear on many items and are seen in the various DHARMA Initiative stations on the Island; they also featured in the orientation films.
The logos are all based on an octagonal design incorporating eight trigrams surrounding a central symbol. The central symbol is unique for each station. The design of the logo was derived from a Chinese concept known as "Bagua" [2] although the trigrams are all inverted (inside-to-outside) from their normal "Later Heaven" order.
[编辑] Status of the DHARMA Initiative
The current status of the Initiative is unknown. Hugh McIntyre, head of marketing and promotion for the Hanso Foundation stated the DHARMA Initiative was canceled in 1987. He made these claims in an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, broadcast on 24 May 2006, and also claimed that the information shown on the TV show Lost is fictional. However in the Sri Lanka Video, filmed by Rachel Blake in July 2006, Thomas Mittelwerk is seen showing several people a DHARMA Initiative orientation video, suggesting that the project might still be active in some form. The Swan station on the Island also received supplies with DHARMA-branded food and necessities up to at least December 2004 and Kelvin Inman is known to have joined the DHARMA Initiative after the Gulf War in 1991, both indicating that the Initiative did not end its operations as McIntyre has implied.
In a hacked section of the Hanso Foundation website on June 19, the hacker Rachel Blake (Persephone) posted a message, questioning the status of the DHARMA Initiative and its members.
| “ |
WHO WERE THEY? | ” |
In the Sri Lanka Video, Thomas Mittelwerk claims "we all know what happened - the DHARMA Initiative failed."
In the Official Lost Podcasts, executive producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse make frequent references to DHARMA's fall as a "collapse", though they do not give specifics. In the 10/30/06 podcast, they confirm that the polar bears escaped from their cages during the collapse, comparing the situation to when lions escaped the Baghdad Zoo during U.S. bombing of the area.
[编辑] The Purge
Main article: The purge
The DHARMA Initiative fought an armed conflict with a group it called the Hostiles for many years. The reasons for the conflict have not been revealed.
The conflict ended with an event known as the Purge. The Hostiles/Others launched a toxic gas attack on the Barracks and possibly other locations which killed nearly all the staff of the Initiative on the Island. Some members of the Initiative, including Ben Linus, survived the attack by joining the Others. The team at the Swan survived by being sealed in the station. The bodies of the Initiative members were piled into an uncovered mass grave in the jungle. It is unclear when exactly the gassing occurred other than it happened on December 22 at 4pm.
Mikhail Bakunin claimed that the DHARMA Initiative was destroyed in a conflict with the Others. Bakunin said that the DHARMA Initiative had initiated the conflict and that every member of the initiative on the island had been killed.
The Swan station remained under the control of the DHARMA Initiative until 2004. Supplies were dropped on a regular basis to the station but replacements for the crew stopped arriving on the Island at some point before 2001.
The last known working member of the initiative on the Island was Kelvin Inman. He arrived on the Island at some point after 1992 and was sealed in the Swan station, he was left alone by the Others and seemed to be unaware of the Purge. Inman died in 2004.
Former members of the Initiative who joined the Others are still present on the Island.
