John Townley on "Cause and Coincidence"
John Townley on "Cause and Coincidence"
A discussion of Paul Kammerer's "Seriality", which is similar to Jung's "Synchronicity" (meaningful 'coincidence'), except that Seriality is not acausal.
From the Wiki: He postulated that all events are connected by waves of Seriality. These forces would cause what we would perceive as just the peaks, or groupings and coincidences. Kammerer was known to, for example, make notes in public parks of what numbers of people were passing by, how many carried umbrellas, etc. In reviewing the book, Albert Einstein called the idea of Seriality "Interesting, and by no means absurd."

Utopia, Ecotopia
Ecotopia article by Forbes"The two groups growing dramatically now in America are ecovillages, which are usually rural or semi-rural, and cohousing, which tends to be in or near cities," says Bill Metcalf, a sociologist at Griffith University in Australia who studies communalism and has lived in two intentional communities.
Most of these new groups are communal to varying degrees--some ecovillages pool everything they own and earn, while so-called "cohousing dwellers" typically have private homes and incomes while sharing some spaces, resources and domestic tasks. In addition to the desire to live green, community dwellers want more connection with the people around them--and not the digital kind.

Someone suggested to post this, I heard him before but forgot about his work. It's kind of far out even for me. I like all this starseed talk, entities and dimensions. All great, though I need some kind of evidence sooner or later and I haven't seen any evidence from anyone talking about starseed. Which is kinda freaking ridiculous considering the years they have been talking about it.
