Synchronicity

I got a couple of new technology devices this week and everywhere I look I find the word synchronicity. Magically, all the systems, the e-mails, the files, etc. merge into one. It seems the spiritual path is exactly like that. The Source pulls you in and as you increasingly let go of your own agenda, you are propelled onto that self-reinforcing wave until one day your personal agenda happens to be perfectly synchronized with the Tao.

I am sure that every spiritual path traveler has his or her idiosyncratic ways of receiving messages from the Source. My mode of communication happens to be reading license plate numbers. I often ask what kind of strange process is that which lines cars and traffic flows up with me. It seems strange for me to believe that the Source spends Its time to redirect traffic in Massachusetts just to get a message delivered to me. More likely it seems that there is an authority inside myself that has all the information available and lines me up perfectly with all the news that works for me when I see it. I feel a little like my new I-Pad: I am being synchronized moment by moment as long as I have the mindset to perceive it.

The Course in Miracles states "To unite having and being is to unite your will with His, for He wills you Himself. And you will yourself to Him because, in your perfect understanding of Him, you know there is but one Will." (Chapter 11, 2, 1) In other words, every step you take on your journey home is realizing more and more that you and the Tao are one!
