I had strange first hand experience of synchronicity which I would I like to share with you. Per chance a father of the adult patient can to me for the assertion and validation of the treatment that he was administering to his own sun suffering from notions of divided consciousness and contradictory notions about sex. He was constantly fighting with himself. He had number of fixed notions and beliefs. I may say that he was suffering from forced notions and whims on his innocent mind. He was almost reduced to Skelton by the constant torture of psychosis.
Every article of food
in any form was very disgusting and nauseating to him. I requested the physician father to leave the child under my care. It was known case of psychoses affecting his body many ways. Every lab test from simple blood tests to sophisticated scans was normal. During his third therapeutic session I emphasized him to note the dreams seriously as I was expecting something spectacular and astonishing. On the tenth day of my prescription he dreamt a very peculiar dream. The archetype of “divine child” appeared in his dream. The adult child started narrating his dream to me; that there were four characters in the dream. The first was of an innocent child wearing white clothes sitting near to his legs I suddenly exclaimed that it was you without listening to his dream. At this time I did know nothing about the “divine child” archetype of Carl Jung. I intuitively said that the child was you because the adult child was just like child like not childish in his innocent behavior. As a child he used to gaze at beauty as if spell bound. The next day when I was viewing my e-mail than coincidently to delete the unwanted cluster of e. mails I clicked on one about a child. To my utter surprise the heading of the article was “Are the inner child and the Ego the same”? By Jelaila Starr.It struck me that I started reading this
article very eagerly. When I finished this article I came to know the archetype of divine child by Jung. I knew Jung’s ideas about archetypes but did not that the child is also the archetype. I was constantly thinking in my mind how such an innocent and intelligent adult occurs in this wicked, hostile and mean world. In the end when the dream ended the adult boy said to the archetypal boy of the dream waheguru! (The name of supreme power in Sikhism)” it is me!” the adult boy suffering from psychosis was exact replica or carbon copy of the archetypal child. After reading the article I said to myself,” O my God”! My patient adult boy is the living archetype of the child that appeared in his dream. You may term it as coincidence but I call it an instance of “synchronicity”.Synchronicity is a mental process of perceiving or connecting two events simultaneously without the prior knowledge of the either. Some psychologists call it coincidence. Carl Jung describes it as “acasual connection principle”. Mind is nowhere but present everywhere. It is beyond the narrow boundaries of time and space. Our mind has potential to establish a deep link with universal mind. The synchronicity is such a process when the link of our mind automatically joined or connected with universal mind. The universal mind sends us the messages to solve our problems. When individual mind is attuned or synchronised with that on certain occasions synchronicity happens. How the two events in my experience of synchronicity have meaningfully connected is really fascinating. I would like to share your synchronicity experiences with me. I promise to write more on this subject in future in my posts.
