Coincidence. Influences of chance and unintended incidences: we experience it every day. Most of the time we let it pass like meaningless curiosities that don’t have any impact on our lives. But what if we could turn chance and coincidence into meaningful principles and use them to our advantage whenever we want?
There is a force in the universe that is pervading everything – every living matter, every substance and object is affected by it. This force is not a power in the absolute sense of the word. It is more of a quality or condition that manifests itself whenever two or more events coincide, a collision of attributes that form a single entity, a resonance of the similarities that the conglomeration of events have in common. And yet it acts as a force, as it is capable of facilitating awareness and change towards every partaker that is in need of it.
The famous psychologist Carl Jung tried to give it a name and called it ‘synchronicity’. But the
principle, the force that I described, is not constrained within the framework that Jung defined, a framework that requires ‘the presence of an active archetype’ and ‘emotional patterns’ (C.G. Jung,
‘A letter on parapsychology and synchronicity: Dr. Jung’s Response to an Inquiry’, in: Spring, 1961,
pp. 50-57.) The force of meaningful chance expands beyond this idea of ‘synchronicity’ and can work at every time, every moment and within every circumstance, no matter the emotional state and situation of the person who wields it to his advantage. The power of chance is that it will manifest itself whenever the person who experiences it is in need of it. Even more, it is available whenever it is required and it can be manifested whenever you choose to do so.
It does not wait, it does not linger, and it does not judge: it adapts and shapes itself instantly according to what is needed at the very moment you apply it. It is the most objective counsellor you will ever find. It sees through the biased fabric of conditioned behavior, it reveals the limits of pattern-driven thoughts and exposes the source of restraining fears. And it is there for you when you need it, without exception.
The power of chance: an all-encompassing quality of the resonating strings in our universe.
