Thread: Synchromysticism

Answer to your questions?

Uh. Look again. You never asked any...

Only blindly criticized from word one...

What you are looking for is what is looking

They get offended and move on to their next offense...

Fair point. I just assumed that you would help to curb my doubts.

Here's one for you.

Do you have any sort of evidence or reasoning behind these beliefs?

What beliefs?

I never claimed this as anything more than a tool to help pierce through yourself which it seems to have done.

Does a movie need to sell you on the feasibility and physics behind the story before you watch it?

Right... well... great...

So you're saying that this whole synchronicity thing is just a farce; but it's enjoyable to go along with for the hell of it.

OK. I can live with that.

If you already haven't noticed by now... I'll let you in on a little secret that most fail to realize in their blind justifications and logical juxtapositions of their silly reality bubbles...

All of reality is a farce.

We put on our masks so we can feel at ease with ourselves and the contradictions we create within our dualistic framework of our non-dualistic self...

That's all.

Once you can come to grips with that it's much easier to appreciate what I post.

I totally understand this. Actually, I think there's no difference between reality and dreaming - both are built on perception, and during them we believe that it's real (lucidity aside).

But this still doesn't explain your religion.

I don't think I'm going to get anywhere, so I'll just leave you in your protective bubble of delusion.

I never said it was a religion.

You're putting words in my mouth.

If having faith in yourself is a religion then that's something most of us are guilty of.

Like us all I'm just enjoying myself in my own way.

The difference between most is, when I post things here I know I'm dreaming...

I'm just leaving different kinds of road signs for the other dream characters to find when they want to go lucid...

Lucid living that is...

If reality is based on perception, and it is the mind that perceives, then what is the natural state of mind, and how do you or I or anyone differ from that in anyway?

Oh yeah, there is no way in hell Cyclic is wrong. He's even more infallible than the pope!

Wow, someone read some Carl Jung while on acid.

Synchromysticism is another pseudo-science perpetuated by hindisght bias and self-fulfilling prophecy. It is really as easy as that.

Even the most stochastic system will create patterns identifiable by phenomenological beings. Do not mistake this for some divine interweaving energy - you are smart enough to know that you are the being that is identifying and propogating labels and categorising the universe under vague mystical terms.

Even Jung himself thought it was silly.

Yeah, nothing to see here. Move along. Line forms to the right...

I never said I have it all figured out. I'm just having fun entertaining thoughts and allowing others to, as well.

Also, it's clearly not a matter of 'right' or 'wrong'. If that's the case, then all thoughts are 'wrong' because no one has it figured out.

The posts are meant to be taken at face value as proverbial backdoors into your multi-faceted self.

Sure, you can sit there and chip away the paint at any door you stand before...

Or, you can take it for what it is... a door... and walk through it...

The way you guys spend hours on end verbally picking away at paint chips and eating them with the different open-ended ideas in the Philosophy and R/S sections of this forum as if it ever gave any of you some solid answers to the ongoing epiphenomenon called life, is absolutely no different from what I'm doing here.

I used to get a kick out of having those empty verbal battles, now I find them beyond trivial. I'd much rather piece together some interesting ideas by myself and find some interesting pictures in the process than spend hours arguing semantics with random internet personas.

The rational reductionist left-brained mindset you hold with putting ideas, concepts, and empty terms up on a pedestal could be turned back at you in a critical way if you actually thought enough about it.

You'll never get a conclusion worthy of full belief.

Entertaining thoughts is all we ever do.

Get over yourselves.

Live and let live.

There's nothing "pseudo" about overcoming/dropping illusions.
