I would argue, you could exchange the words between Chopra and Lyons on this topic, and nobody would notice the switch:<BR/><BR/>"Although synchronicities may seem like events that just happen by themselves, SynchroDestiny is definitely something that must be learned. But this shouldn't seem at all intimidating. After all, many things that we take for granted in our everyday lives are actually learned behaviors and responses. Even the nature of the physical world is something that we learn during early childhood. We are told that the whole truth about things is available to our senses. Thus, when you look at a table, what you see is exactly what's there in space and time. It's a piece of<BR/>solid matter composed of smaller pieces of solid matter all the way down to the level of subatomic particles. This is a materialist interpretation of reality. It's the way almost everyone lives day in and day out."<BR/><BR/>From: Deepak's PDF 'SynchroDestiny'Jim Bublitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16888150295999667219noreply@blogger.com
