Deepak Chopra, a very wise man, now in his 60s, believes we can all get what we want.
All we have to do is learn about what he calls Synchro-destiny …
It's a book I am reading and re-reading at the moment as I learn how to meditate (no laughing please...)
The key to Synchro-destiny, says Deepak, is asking questions out loud without trying to find answers. This, he says, allows the Universe to provide you with what he calls “Synchro-destiny”.
Indeed. What Carl Jung called “synchronicity” and James “Celestine Prophesy” Redfield called “meaningful coincidence”, Chopra has coined “Synchro-destiny”.
All people that I loved reading and reading about - and Deepak's version for some reason is the one that has called to me the most.
He says it’s “the key to getting you whatever you want out of life”. It’s the way the ‘Universe’ (aka God, Source, the Field) helpfully points us all in the right direction, with gentle hints and nudges.
I am wondering if I had one of them yesterday when I attended a conference in Liverpool, the games expo at the #ifb2014, on the way I bumped into a past work colleauge who was 'just thinking' about me, and then at the event I met many people that seem to be placing me onto a road.. of launching my own mobile games development company again. On the way home, something I had been chatted about at the conference, as something that might happen in the future - suddenly arrived in my inbox - and this is a BIG company that I have no control over.... so a lovely moment of spooky timing once again.
To finish the night I then went to another launch party in Manchester, this time for an organisation called Nothing but Epic, where again more and more things happened that seem to be "nudging" me...
Anyhoo... back to Synchro destiny.
WHAT IS SYNCHRO-DESTINY?
Synchro-destiny is when things “fall into place”; when events seem “fated”; when you feel as though the Universe is “trying to tell you something” and you “go with the flow”.
I pop here an exert from "The Spontaneous Fulfillment of Desire" by Deepak Chopra. © 2003 by Deepak Chopra. Excerpted by permission of Harmony, a division of Random House, Inc.
To remind myself of the potential power of it all.
"Most of us go through life a little afraid, a little nervous, a little excited. We are like children playing hide and seek, wanting to be found, yet hoping we won’t be,
biting our nails with anticipation. We worry when opportunity approaches
a little too closely, and hide deeper in the shadows when fear
overcomes us. This is no way to go through life. People who understand
the true nature of reality, those whom some traditions call enlightened,
lose all sense of fear or concern. All worry disappears. Once you understand the way life really works—the flow of energy, information, and intelligence that directs every moment—then you begin to see the amazing potential in that moment. Mundane things just don’t bother you anymore. You become lighthearted and full of joy. You also begin to encounter more and more coincidences in your life.
When you live your life with an appreciation of coincidences and their meanings, you connect with the underlying field of infinite possibilities. This is when the magic begins. This is a state I call synchrodestiny, in which it becomes possible to achieve the spontaneous fulfillment of our every desire. Synchrodestiny requires gaining access to a place deep within yourself, while at the same time awakening to the intricate dance of coincidences out in the physical world.
When a coincidence arises, don’t ignore it. Ask yourself, What is the message here? What is the significance of this? You don’t need to go digging for the answers. Ask the question, and the answers will emerge. They may arrive as a sudden insight, a spontaneous creative experience, or they may be something very different.
Perhaps you will meet a person
who is somehow related to the coincidence that occurred. An encounter, a
relationship, a chance meeting, a situation, a circumstance will
immediately give you a clue to its meaning.
“Oh, so that’s what it was
all about!” "
Next time I bump into a friend on the train I haven't seen for ages - I will think again.
And by the by, I now know what Nothing but Epic do - it's kinda cool and fits in very nicely to my new idea - nice one Synchro Destiny.
