Jung spoke of a phenomenon called synchronicity. Science is backing that up. There are no coincidences. The line of cause and affect may be very abstract but it is there.
Our minds create illusions. We can’t keep them from it, but we can take charge and make the illusion useful. If you change your point of view it’s normal that more things like that will happen because we will see it that way. Is that not real? Something does change, and it starts with you and it is connected to the world. You don’t exist in a void
You have to know to make your choices in the process. Observe the process of cause and effect in your life.
“I find the great thing in this world is, not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving.” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

There is a subjective truth, and it is true, and there are more universal truths. There is no absolute departure from the truth, even psychology says this. It is why their therapies have any chance of working, and also why psychological disturbance can endure for so long. The disturbed soul isn’t entirely wrong. Jung said [...]

How do you test spirituality? Do the doctrines or insights of the [...]

It has been said that each persons life has a single theme at the heart of it, and you can discover that from reflection. It is not the same for every person, but it comes from a thread that permeated their whole life, even childhood. It arises from temperament as well as other factors. It might [...]
