Dear Mic,
As I said, I am not a scientist. I see the world from the point of
view of my theosophical studies, and as far as I understand, given
the fuzziness of language which makes it difficult to pin these
things down, all manifestatin is governed by law. Everything is part
of a universal cause and effect pattern. If this is true, as I think
it is, there is no such thing as coincidence. Things only look random
to us because we can't see the whole pattern. We can't even remember
what we did in past lives which set the stage for this lifetime.
However, I suspect that there may be some realm in which this
synchronicity theory fits with what I describe. Perhaps it relates
specifically to what we can see, remember and know. So many of the
examples you have mentioned remind me of what I have learned about
more "primitive" (terrible word, maybe I mean pre-technological? or
pre-Christian?) cultures, such as that of the Native Americans, who
took everything in their environment as a sign or symbol to instruct
them as to living their lives. Every manifestation of nature they
took to represent some message to them. Does this relate? Is there
some way to find an interface between cosmic cause and effect and
material science? With synchronicity representing some aspect of the
interface?
Best wishes,
Adelasie
