A Scientific Look at Synchronicity - Robert Perry, Bernard Beitman & Paul DeBell

[@lawshorizon]

The weird thing about synchronicities is that events are co-dependant on the past, present, and future happenings - as if events are balanced in time leading up to the event. It does suggest that a form of destiny is involved with the whole ball of string interconnected. This interconnectedness show up in statistically significant psi experiments while synchronicities, in ordinary life happenings, are a more complex and “multifaceted” version of psi effects in my opinion.

ignorance is not a fault, but a tool that can be used. Really you can practice ignoring synchronicity just as easily as you practice seeing it. Sometimes it's better to just go for the ride and not obsess over the small things.

deja vu I realised I had done this many times before and that life is an eternal reccurence of the exact same life times and I was in one of an infinite number of exact same lifetimes. Now here's where the synchronicity comes in right at the end as I realised this the song I was listening to had a line that goes "Life, remembering, life" and it repeated that over and over at the height of my realisation of remembering past lives, I had to turn my ipod off to stop it looping. undeniable for me.

Interestingly, this is a synchronicity to see your comment on here. You commented on a video of mine today on Buddhism. I just so happened to watch this video tonight and noticed your comment. --- Anecdotal experiences are nevertheless meaningful and true to the one experiencing them.

Is 11.11 the most popular synchronicity ?

[@vcoonrod]

Oh wow! This was so fascinating! Thank you!

It is not that I am a total disbeliever in synchronicity, but I agree with the commentator that these examples are anecdotal not scientific. The panel also needs to watch and consider probability theory, like Jefferey Rosenthal's lectures, and the basic psychological truth that the human mind tries to make meaning out of everything, whether the connection is there or not. And synchronicity needs to be more carefully defined: these seem more psychic than synchronous.

Is synchronicity cause and effect?

[@leslieleipard3929]

Thank you for speaking. I believe we do prepare and it is an intuitive in nature and unique.

[@NaderBagha]

interesting experience

[@yggdrasil444]

Nothing scientific about this though.

[@smartcatcollarproject5699]

And not the correct definition, the term was created by Jung. Here they are talking about coincidences, not synchronicity.

[@cheezoncrack1]

nobody cares

[@XreaperPT]

@@smartcatcollarproject5699 they are indeed talking about syncronicities, which, like Jung proposed, are meaningful coincidences. And yes, great stories, but nothing scientific about them.

[@alpspitz1]

Astrology is used in Buddhism which involves synchronicity

[@AndWhyAreYouSoSure]

I know that feel man, too well.

How's this for a moment of synchronicity. I started to get this strong deja vu and started to think I had done what I was doing last week and started to get confused. Unlike most deja vu that disappears swiftly this one didn't go it was perpetual I was stuck in the deja vu and lasted about 45 seconds. During those 45 seconds I started to revelate as it was rather spiritual I started to realise I had done this before, then I realised I'd done this many times before, right at the end of the....
