Coincidence

[naturalmystic]

There is no such thing as coincidence it is just the mind connecting two or more unique events; if the mind does not make the connection then there is no coincidence.

So if a tree falls in the forest and there's nobody there to hear it, does it make a sound?

[jayelowell]

Coincidence is the noteworthy alignment of two or more events or circumstances without obvious causal connection.

No, just a disturbance in the frequency fields

No, that's synchronicity.

i got that off of the online dictionary!

Synchronicity is the experience (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experience) of two or more events (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_(philosophy)) which occur in a meaningful (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meaning_(non-linguistic)) manner, but which are causally unrelated (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causality)

Its actually like in computer games , where things out of certain range exist only in the form of algebra.It means they are not rendered at the given moment.They just exist as a loads and loads of numbers.But because they are not rendered , doesnt mean that they dont exist.

You have synchronicity and coincidence excactly the other way around to what I do.

Mine is backed up by Websters.

Just goes to show how imprecise linguistics can be!

Can you provide a link to your online dictionary?
I suspect it might be an illuminati, big brother double-speak operation.

How is this concept even possible?
Even when a leaf falls of a tree, there is a will of nature, a balance. Keeping the circle round. Behind everything nature, there is a brain, and that is god/spirit/consciousness etc.

I remember few years back I had a dream. It didn't look that important, but I saw clear dates in it, and I wrote them down just in case, and later forgot about it. Few months later, that exact day, I was sick and couldn't go to school. Later I heard there was a car accident, and guess what, that road...I normally got through when off to school.

Yes indeed, my friend.
Everything is connected!

For my part , try to prove then that "we" create reality ;)

"Proof" is for materialists too.
All others simply know (or don't).

Now I see no coincidence, only natural conclusion.
