1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,560 Speaker 1: Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on iHeartRadio. 2 00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:08,920 Speaker 1: George nor back with theoretical physicists Sky Nelson Isaac's book 3 00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:13,280 Speaker 1: Leap to Holdness Sky. When we deal with synchronicity, If 4 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:16,599 Speaker 1: you're thinking about somebody and the phone rings and it's them, 5 00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:20,479 Speaker 1: is that just luck? Is that synchronicity? What would you 6 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:25,440 Speaker 1: call it? I don't differentiate between synchronicity and non synchronicity, really. 7 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 1: I think there's the spectrum of meaningfulness. How likely is 8 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: this something to happen? I think we need to back 9 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,199 Speaker 1: away from being amazed by synchronicity and see it as 10 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 1: a normal phenomenon that happens all the time. Sure. I 11 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:41,559 Speaker 1: give an example. My wife received a call that was 12 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:45,199 Speaker 1: from our Pacific Gas and Electric, our electric company, and 13 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 1: she picked it up and it was almost suspicious. So 14 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: she thought, maybe to someone who was fishing to get 15 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 1: her information. So she hung up the phone and she 16 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: called the electric company herself directly and waited on the 17 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: phone for like twenty minutes. Finally got somebody, and the 18 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 1: person said, yeah, it's true that the people have our number. 19 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: They're acting like they're us, and they're trying to get 20 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: But while we're on the phone with you, let's just 21 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 1: check your account. And she checked our account and it 22 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: turns out our electricity was to be shut off the 23 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: next day. Oh my god, mixed up in the payments. 24 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 1: So this, this spam caller actually helped us address then 25 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 1: reality that we're about to lose power. You know, I've 26 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: I've talked with an expert about the fishing. That's a 27 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:29,680 Speaker 1: different topic altogether, but they really do steal other phone 28 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:33,479 Speaker 1: numbers to trick you. It's frustrating. And when you can 29 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: see that, you know, you have your own filter, your 30 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: own frustration, your own fear about that. But then you 31 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 1: see it actually helped me solve my problem. That's when 32 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 1: you start to really live in flow, start to see 33 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: other people not as obstacles but as you know, clues 34 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: along the path to help you know, live your own 35 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 1: life into the best optimal state that you can well. 36 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 1: And it happens all the time. We hear stories of 37 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: people being delayed on some car trip at all of us. 38 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: Had they been in the car at that time, they 39 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: might have been hit by a car right at that 40 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 1: special moment where there was an accident. It could have 41 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: been them all kinds of things happen like that, But 42 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: what creates it? What are we doing it as individuals, 43 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: or is there that higher power out there in the 44 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: universe that's making these things happen for us. I don't 45 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,360 Speaker 1: think we can control the circumstances well enough to do 46 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: a scientific study of each instance, and so I don't 47 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: think we should, you know, decide for ourselves whether each 48 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 1: instance is a synchronicity or not. But it forces us 49 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: to be a little bit humble and say, you know, 50 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: I think it's a process by which we are anticipating 51 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: our circumstances, where we have a certain intention of what 52 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,519 Speaker 1: we want to do and we take action in that regard. 53 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,639 Speaker 1: It's it's when we have an intention and we act 54 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: upon it, we start to create momentum in that direction. 55 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:51,639 Speaker 1: We'll start to experience synchronicities or meaningful moments that help 56 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: us along that journey. But it doesn't mean that everything 57 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: that happens is meaningful. You know, when we get sick, 58 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 1: or when we experience like racism or anything like that, 59 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 1: these are things that are not necessarily in our control 60 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 1: and shouldn't be considered like our fault. We shouldn't take 61 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,519 Speaker 1: a responsibility for every single thing as if it's meaningful. 62 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: Some things we just have to deal with at face value. 63 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: Do you tie in intelligent design with any of this 64 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 1: or not. I believe in evolution theory for sure, that 65 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 1: we've evolved through evolution. I think that there is a 66 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 1: possibility that the process of synchronicity does influence the likelihood 67 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: for well being. Right, So if a synchronicity occurs, which 68 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: is beneficial, and synchronicity, by the way, as a neutral process, 69 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: it's not there to help us, but it's a responsive 70 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: process that's responding to our choices, and if it responds 71 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: in a way that helps us survive, then it does 72 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: influence the course of evolution. But it's sort of an 73 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: internal intelligence design. It's not intelligence design from an external 74 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: creator or anything like that. There's an ongoing argument over 75 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: whether we have free will or not, or whether things 76 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 1: are already predetermined. I think we have free will. What 77 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: do you think? I think we have free will? And 78 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: this is this is consistent with what we know about 79 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: quantum mechanics, that there is a quantum mechanics. There's a 80 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: branching tree of all the possible outcomes of an experiment, 81 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: and we have when we when we measure the experiment, 82 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 1: we have choice over what kind of measurement we make, 83 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: and the system then gives us an answer to that 84 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: is that experimental question? Um, so we do have choice, 85 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: and then the system collapses into one state or another 86 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 1: randomly based on probability. But I think within the structure 87 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: of the deterministic evolution of what's called the wave function, 88 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 1: you know that is deterministic. There's there's no choice involved. 89 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: But the choice comes in at the point where we 90 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: make a free choice over what we measure, and then 91 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: the system collapses into one state or another basis upon that. 92 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 1: It's remarkable how it works, how it happens, and can 93 00:04:56,080 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 1: we control synchronicity or does it just happen randomly. Well, 94 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: that's why I write about flow, because we can act 95 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 1: in certain ways that enhance the synchronicities in our lives. 96 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 1: We can pay attention to them, we can make note 97 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: of them. I think the better listeners we are, the 98 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: more we listen to people, the more we get our 99 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: filters out of the way, The more we start to see, 100 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: oh yeah, my friend doesn't want to go to the 101 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,480 Speaker 1: movie I want to go to, so maybe I need 102 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: to drop my own assumption about whether I'm going to 103 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: like their movie or not and go with their flow, 104 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: and in doing so, I might have an experience that's 105 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 1: really meaningful, a movie that I thought I wasn't going 106 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: to like that I end up loving, or that gives 107 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: me some idea about a problem with having at work. 108 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: You know, we can get informed about one area of 109 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: our life from something that happens in a totally different 110 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,239 Speaker 1: area of our life. So I think open mindedness and 111 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 1: deep listening and compassion for other people's perspectives can help 112 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 1: us experience more synchronicity and more flow, which is not 113 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,359 Speaker 1: controlled by us, but we sort of surrender to that 114 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: process and it's a give and take with the cosmos. 115 00:05:55,760 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 1: Tell me about the holistic cosmos. So we talked about 116 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 1: time being a line rather than a point, and what 117 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 1: this implies is that you know, there's a there's a 118 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 1: connection between the past and the future in some sense, 119 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 1: you can't break apart this sense of a line, like 120 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 1: the light traveling from the Sun to the Earth, exists 121 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 1: as a whole. What that means is, you know, I 122 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 1: think about this like a virtual world. In a virtual world, 123 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 1: you have systems, you know, have nonplayer characters. Right, you 124 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: have NPCs like in the Matrix, you have all the 125 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: agents that are out to kill Neo, and they don't 126 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: have an actual history, right, They're just bits in the machine. 127 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: So when you make a choice to go one way 128 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: versus to go the other way, the bits in the 129 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 1: machine can jostle and change to make the NPCs go 130 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,559 Speaker 1: a different direction. So history is flexible in a video 131 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: game or in a virtual world, and I think that 132 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: that is possibly the way our physical world works. History 133 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: is flexible of things that we haven't observed, and that 134 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 1: allows for the physical world to adjust to our choices 135 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: and to become responsive in this way. Sky Are we 136 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: real because others have talked about a virtual reality world? Two? 137 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 1: I mean, is this really happening to us or are 138 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: we created like that? Yeah? I think it's really important 139 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: to see that the world is real. You know, we 140 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: have real problems. We have systemic racism in the world. 141 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: We have conspiracy theories that are miscommunication that that's happening. 142 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: We have people suffering around the globe in different ways. 143 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: That's all real stuff that we've got to deal with. 144 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: But it doesn't mean that we we understand completely what 145 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: objective reality is I use the word virtual like reality 146 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: because it's it's got this element of um flexible histories 147 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: where where the world can respond to us and adapt 148 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: to us, but it is still a real world where 149 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: we have real consequences. Well, do you talk about the 150 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: cosmos being programmed? So what do you mean by that? 151 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: I mean that synchronicity is the programming that when we 152 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: make a choice to go out and you know, get 153 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: a job, and we start to fill out a resume 154 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: and we start to inquire with other people about job opportunities, 155 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: that the response of this of the world around us 156 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 1: is to bring us some of those opportunities to start 157 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: showing us like here's a person that comes across your 158 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: path at the grocery store that has an idea for 159 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: you or has a job opening for you. But if 160 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: we if we do it differently, if we don't have 161 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: the confidence to you know, the approach that person for instance, 162 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: we'll have a different experience. And so the programming is 163 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: like based on what we choose to do, based on 164 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 1: whether we choose to have the confidence to proceed or 165 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: we don't. There was the synchronicity will will occur differently 166 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: and either happen or not happen, and this is this 167 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: is sort of a way that the universe is programmed 168 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: to help us heal, help us grow, and really be 169 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,680 Speaker 1: a reflection of who we are that we can learn from. 170 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: You have high praise from the book from a lot 171 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: of people, And what would you say is the most 172 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: important aspect of leap to wholeness? I think that you know, 173 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 1: we're dealing with some really big issues in the world, 174 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 1: and I mentioned a couple of them. I think climate 175 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: change is a really fundamental issue we have to deal with. 176 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 1: I think systemic racism is a big issue. I think 177 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: misinformation and the way that we communicate across a political 178 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 1: barrier is important. And all of these things, I think 179 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: come down to a sense ultimately of people and how 180 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: they relate to each other. And this is really based 181 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 1: on our filters, based on our own past experiences, what 182 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: information we've taken to believe and what information we don't believe. 183 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: And those filters are thoughts and emotions in our own 184 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 1: heads that influence what we see and what we hear 185 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: and what we make of the information we get. So 186 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 1: you and I can listen to the same information from 187 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 1: a politician and maybe hear it differently based upon what 188 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: our preconceived biases are. So that's a really important thing 189 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 1: to know so that we don't get too serious when 190 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: we disagree with somebody, because we might find that our 191 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: disagreements are at the surface and underneath that there's a 192 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 1: real common commonality that we share. Can we use synchronicity 193 00:09:54,280 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 1: to our advantage? Yeah, we can. Every time we successfully 194 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 1: move towards some goal, we are implementing these tools because 195 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: I think everyone has experiences where they can say, you know, 196 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: I decided I was going to get a job, or 197 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 1: I decided I was going to start a business, or 198 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,839 Speaker 1: decided I was going to meet somebody romantically and lo 199 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 1: and behold, two weeks later, I ran into this person 200 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,959 Speaker 1: that led me in the right direction. So when we 201 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: have clarity on our goals and we act upon them, 202 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: we are implementing the same phenomenon that I think brings 203 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: synchronicity around this expectation that we set. So I think 204 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: it's calling us to become more confident but also more receptive. 205 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: At the same time, we're not just barreling over people, 206 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: but actually listening to our life, listening to other people, 207 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: and listening to the things that happened to us. How 208 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 1: important is intuitiveness to this kind of mix? I mean, 209 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,959 Speaker 1: is that part of synchronicity or is an outside of it. 210 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: I don't think a person has to consider themselves intuitive. 211 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: I think that intuition can play a big role if 212 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: you can notice, you know, the thing's happening to you, 213 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: not just at the surface, but how you feel about 214 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 1: a situation or you know what somebody might mean. If 215 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 1: somebody tells you they're happy, but you kind of sense 216 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: that they're not happy with the decision, you know that 217 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,599 Speaker 1: that's a good clue to help. It's just one of 218 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: the pieces of the puzzle that you can weave together 219 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: to say, what do I really need to do here? 220 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: If my whole team at work is not really happy 221 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: with the decision but they're telling me I'm not they're happy, 222 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: you know, maybe that's a clue that I need to 223 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: reconsider what the direction we're going. Is it synchronicity or 224 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: is it just gut intelligence to make a decision. Let's 225 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,559 Speaker 1: say a financial decision, and you made the right move, 226 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,199 Speaker 1: you know, maybe you decided I'm not going to buy 227 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 1: bitcoin this week and it plummets. Is that is that 228 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 1: just having some financial knowledge, or is there some synchronicity 229 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: tied to that. I think that there's a relationship that 230 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 1: gets established when you start living in flow. It's it's 231 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: it's not that the future is predicted. You know, the 232 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: future is unknown. We have free will, and what I'm 233 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: suggesting is the circumstances outside of us adapt to the 234 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: choices we make, So it's not it's not clear in 235 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: advance whether the stock will go up or down. I think, 236 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,200 Speaker 1: you know, my experience, what I'm led to is focusing 237 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 1: more on the inner things that I'm learning, like why 238 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 1: am I attached to the stock going up or down? 239 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: What is the feeling that that generates in me? What 240 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 1: is you know, the fearful attachment I might have to 241 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: one outcome or another. The more I can let go 242 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: of the fearful attachments, the more I can get into 243 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: flow with what I'm doing and be more successful at 244 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:39,680 Speaker 1: whatever it is. What can go wrong with synchronicity, sky Well, 245 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: I think that I think we can get kind of 246 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 1: overly obsessed with trying to analyze synchronicity in our lives, 247 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: and I think, backing away from the analysis, what I'm 248 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: trying to point to with the focus on wholism is 249 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: a whole different part of who we are, not just 250 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 1: the analytical selves, but the heartfelt you know, what do 251 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: we feel? What does our gut to us? Right? Integrative 252 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 1: awareness of you know, everything that people are thinking and 253 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:07,559 Speaker 1: feeling in a group, and not just our own perspective. 254 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:09,439 Speaker 1: So I think what can go wrong is sort of 255 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: a focus and over focus on what you think the 256 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: meaning is without really feeling into what the broader underlying experiences. 257 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I keep wondering if we're the ones that 258 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,559 Speaker 1: make synchronicity happen, that we do it because of our 259 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: own innate abilities. Well, again, I think that we are 260 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 1: the first move and the cosmos makes the second move. 261 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 1: So we make a choice to go in a certain 262 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 1: direction to start looking for a job, and the cosmos 263 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: sort of says to us in some way like, okay, 264 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 1: that's what you're doing. Well, here's the first step I'm 265 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 1: gonna you know, give you a link that helps you 266 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 1: find a resume template, you know, and you find that 267 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 1: link and then you fill that out. And so it's 268 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: this back and forth. It's not just a divine doing 269 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 1: it for us, and it's not just us doing it 270 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 1: from scratch. But this is the idea of wholeness, that 271 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 1: all the possibilities exist, and what we're doing is really 272 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: carving away from those possible abilities, not creating from scratch ourselves. 273 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 1: So it's a it's am. It's a collaboration between us 274 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 1: and the cosmos itself.
