synthronicity: return

Synthronicity: to sit upon the same seat (the same "throne") simultaneously. This experiential understanding (not just conceptually, but directly experienced) is similar to Hafiz's depiction of he and God being like two fat people in a boat "bumping into each other and laughing." When the Source of all being and I or you sit on each other's laps simultaneously, mirth and joy erupt.

The creature sits on the lap of the Creator while the Creator sits on the lap of the creature. Simultaneously. No longer is "God" out there, but as close as and closer than our very breath. As close as simultaneous lap sitting.

This means merging while remaining separate. For how can we sit on each other's lap without remaining separate? And then again, the paradox of simultaneous lap sitting requires that the two be one. We are the Source unfolding. The Source is us embodying.

This does not occur without Awareness, capitalized because it is nonordinary awareness, beyond one's awareness of one's physical body or of one's social body. Awareness opens to direct experiencing of one's cosmic body, one's soul.

This simultaneous lap sitting of the human soul and our Origin, our Source, is a continuous occurrence, yet manifests itself more deeply and fully only when the human recognizes it. The Source is always ready. The human is distracted.

  1. Yes! Distractions abound, but sometimes I refuse them attention and then they vanish like phantoms in the wind. I'm practicing the 4H's which helps retain the presence to recognize the resonance of this synthronicity. You draw such eloquent road maps for us, George. They lead me to a sensation of unfolding and folding. Falling in and falling out. The breathing goes on. (-: I am most grateful.
