When we talk about synchronicity we have different views on it. I'm not of the mind that everything is driven by a puppet master and we have no free will. Since I'm a Christian and free will is written in the bible. Even though the bible is full of half truths. If free will was one of those half truths then it refers to the state of being habit driven, how people's minds work before the first level mind training in IIH. Even that state has free will in it as 1/10 people are able to choose differently then the neural pathways that are formed in their mind in any given situation.cyberdemon wrote:That's exactly what I mean.one-off wrote:So in regards to your "relationship of two instances" I might be twisting your meaning a bit to fit my understanding, but I can see this being possible that the relationship I'm experiencing isn't the same relationship Joe Schmo down the road will have.

Are you open to experimentation Cyberdemon?
If one same instance is applied to two other instances, what is the result? If the one same instance is applied twice to another instance, what is the result? These are where the deviations start. But if synchronicity is real, the effects are all pre-calculated or calculable, following a formula and won't go outside it.
Of course I am. The majority of what I know for sure regarding the occult comes from experimentation.
Intent is a different matter. It depends on whether "fate" and "synchronicity" are interchangeable, which ideally shouldn't be. If they are, then nothing one does matters because the results are predetermined and we are merely observers. That's one sign of synchronicity. But as proven by practitioners, intent does have an impact on the result. Cause and causality. To find synchronicity in this manner is difficult but not impossible. What caused the cause? Since this cause isn't Fundamental (ie. what caused the cause of the start of the universe?), it can have its own cause. How did the instance of this cause come into being? How did this cause affect another instance and to what purpose? And so on. Either way, synchronicity must have had a beginning.Also, I'm not sure if it is just something undiscovered like math used to be which is a law governing the universe instead of an energy specifically fitted to individuals. That's why I asked what was known here in this world about it. Before this discussion to me it was just something called Synchronicity, but the first reply here has me believing it to be something that is being moved with intent since there is somewhat of a consensus in that direction, and I'm a neophyte.
I hope I'm not confusing you. Just in case I'll explain the above statement.
The neural pathways of a person's brain, the neural network is a series of connections in the brain that dictate automatic responses. It's essentially people's personalities.
Here's a short minute and a half video of them forming, I am not affiliate with anything in this video:

Ok, so what you just saw are the habits of the mind. There is a network associated with every action a person takes, whether they get angry at certain situations, or what ever. You come into the world with a basic template of basic human instincts, and what was formed from the dna you got from your parents. It also reflects the elemental temperament of your soul (my addition, not stated anywhere scientifically).
As you grow up and make choices new ones emerge others die out and your personality forms within this vast but limited network. Take a quick look around your life. Everything you see has a correlated pathway. This is the brain. A physical construct, similar to a computer program.
Now, for most people by the time they reach the age of 25 this network has formed into what they will have for the rest of their lives. The mind does not like to form new pathways because it is an unknown thing to the mind and could result in the destruction of the body. Plus, when a new pathway forms in direct opposition to an old one, the old one has the potential to b destroyed. So it actively works to keep you in this comfort zone. Each one of these neurons are alive and have a self interest towards survival. Their survival is supposedly equivalent to the survival of the whole since you haven't died from them being there. They are like say your white blood cells which job is to fight off viruses. But, the neurons have the ability to take control of your body and get you to act along what ever habit they are associated with.
The best example I can give for you to understand this would e the observation of thought exercise in level 1 of IIH. As you observe your thoughts from the shadows your mind gets taken over and you all of a sudden find yourself thinking along some thought tangent against your will. Even though you went into the practice with the full intent to only be the observer.
When you form new pathways old ones can be destroyed so they fight for their survival, by literally controlling you. The saying, old habits die hard comes to mind.
That's the half truth of free will. But, the brain is just something physical, and the mind transcends it so we are able to make choices that go against this programming. It's difficult though which is why 9 out of 10 people would keep a life threatening habit vs changing it due to the willpower needed to fight against them.
I actually know of techniques to develop these mental programs. I have a few I came up with as well as some powerful ones that are known systems out here. They essentially operate off of word, like everything else, and you can implant a word into your brain, or series of words to form one of these which will pull you in the directions you want to go in. Instructions.
I've taken the responsibility of constructing it myself. The programmer of my own mind. Or architect, or engineer, w.e. this is called.
If the world was entirely set in stone then I was always meant to transcend my mental programming while others are always meant to be products of their environments. Doesn't make sense. I don't believe in 100% synchronicity. I see it more of a asymmetrical system where there are some overarching rules and we are free to move within those boundaries.
How we end up is of our own design.
