When we hear talks about synchronicity, what comes in to the mind? In the New Testament (Matt 5:18) Jesus says:” For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled." The "Jot" is the Hebrew word "Yodh" which is the 10th letter of the Hebrew alphabet. It is also the smallest letter. It's European or English equivalent is the letter "Y" as in the English term Yahweh or in Hebrew YHVH since there were no vowel's used in the ancient script. The word "jot" itself is an English transliteration of "iota" which is the 9th letter of the Greek alphabet. "Iota," in turn, is the nearest Greek equivalent for the Hebrew yodh. The "tittle" is the small decorative spur or point on the upper edge of the yodh. If you can imagine a tiny letter with a slightly visible decorative mark. Tittle is used by Greek grammarians of the accents and diacritical points. It means the little lines or projections by which the Hebrew letters differ from each other. One example would be the difference between the letter L and I. The difference is only one small mark. We use phrases like "the dotting of the i, and the crossing of the t," and "every iota." To put this into context, the smallest events are important and they have meaning in view of the larger. Synchronicity is the modern day manifestation of what Jesus was talking about. To me it means that there are no coincidences and nothing is by happenstance, no matter how small and insignificant they may seem. Everything is CONNECTED and "fixed" by the Universal, overriding law of Karma. As many concepts in Human history are made up in error we can look upon luck as such an error in thinking. Why are some people lucky while others cannot win for losing? There are no lucky people or unlucky ones; it is their thinking or fate that we must examine. There are no accidents and happenstances. Everything is fixed. Jesus said “And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail.” Here, Jesus is talking about the Law of Karma. Even so the law of Karma is most prevailing; there are other Laws in play. Know this; the Human mind is the most powerful tool. I am sure many of you have heard of the Power of Attraction. This is the Law of thought vibrations attracting each other. Good and positive thoughts
attract similar, positive thoughts. You could think of the Human mind as a radio. If it is tuned properly it receives positive and affirming thoughts of the myriad of thoughts in the ether. Thoughts create vortexes, which are group of thoughts of a similar pitch. When people play the stock markets or gamble in a casino, they are filled with fear and greed. These thoughts are not wholesome or positive. At the same time, uncertainty and self-doubt are ever present in the mind of the average gambler. These groups of thoughts act as a repeater or enhancer to the thought of the individual. Everything is connected, naturally our thoughts effect others and we get feedback from the great ocean of thoughts according to the quality of our thinking. Be careful however, these thoughts must be genuine and heartfelt in order to work. You cannot simply tell yourself “I m a force in the universe and I will attract wealth” and deep down in the subconscious still believe the opposite. This naturally causes events to turn against the person who thinks this in a self-defeating pattern. What you believe – IT IS. I am not talking about idle thoughts but when emotions enter into it and money, these thoughts are magnified. You really start believing that you are unlucky and this will cause it to be so. If you do not believe me, would you believe Oprah? She helped making the DVD the Secret a best seller. Essentially the secret is describing the power of thought. Our mind has the capacity to manifest ANYTHING. Powerful mind is a powerful tool. A feeble mind is not using its full capacity. The good news is that we all have the ability to train our mind to be powerful so we can conjure up anything we want as long as it does not interfere with our Karma. Yes, this is the catch; the Universe is not an ATM machine for all. We can only get what we deserve. When we pray it is best to leave out needs and wants from our prayer. Jesus said “your needs are known”. You shall always have what we need but seldom get what we want. Oscar Wilde alluded to this; often the Gods would answer our prayer to punish us. We simply do not know what is good for us down the line. This is because our destiny is karmically predestined. It is utter futility to attempt to fight it with prayer or with white magic. As you can see these two Laws act in tandem and explain all events in the Human condition. If something is not karmically opposed it can be manifested at will. This is the real Philosopher’s Stone – the true alchemy that man searched for since the dawn of times.
