Give Matt A Tip
I intended this video to be a more serious (resitier) conversation on “synchronicity” and how “reality” is showing us more of these than ever, but that did not match my mood. The important message I wanted to express is at the end, which is, how synchronicity needs to be viewed by us as serendipity, but most of the videos is “just having fun.” – Matt
I have always heard, (and I believe) that synchronicities are an indication that my life is on the correct path.
Having lived well and lived poorly, I can confirm that during the periods of living well I had massive synchronicity.
Your experience may vary.
I really think it means we are right on track and I just love it.
I had not had for about 3 or 4 years and now started having a few, so hopefully my run of shyte luck is finally coming to an end…..well, a 6 to 8 month break. It use to be 1 bad year one good, then it went to 2 bad one good, then 3, then 4 but the good side is shrinking. Its where I have to get everything done, making money, getting a new girfriend that doesnt surprise me with news she is a prostitute on the side, a new car that wont immediately break down by design, etc etc.
Hey see ya at the brotherhood meeting, Saturday night, Matt! Don’t forget to bring a goat. 🙂
Matt what’s your PayPal pls
I love this topic so much. Just yesterday I said the word okay, as I was grabbing something behind my tv and YOU said “okay” on your video a nano second after I did. I know other people here have Matt synchronicities of the same nature. It’s also funny that you bring up this topic as I had a flashback moment this week to a synchronicity and my goal was to share it with as many friends as I could because it was so cool. We are on the same “thinking about synchronicity” wavelength. Here’s mine from about 6 years ago. I’m driving south on 101 in Seaside, Oregon (THE Seaside in the song I’m talking about here), singing along with Heart’s “Barracuda” that randomly came up on an mp3 and and a beautiful, purple Barracuda comes barreling past me in the other lane. These moments delight me and let me know I’m right where I need to be. Life is such a trip and no matter how difficult it can get, and it does, it’s nice to know someone, somewhere and maybe it’s just life itself is calling out to us. Thanks for a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day, Matt.
i love it when you include nina simone
what a warrior, what inspiration
Man I get em every Damn day
Its so frustrating that i can only watch these freevoice videos on the computer. honestly feels like notmilk work.
It’s Clinton spelled backwards (notnilc). Connect your computer to your large screen.
Sting’s song, ‘Fragile’, was released on April 1st of 1988. Just another coinkydinky.
Matt, did you know there is a toothpaste and soap brand in Taiwan called “White Men”? It’s hilarious. I should email you some photos of its products sometime. A brand name like that would be totally taboo in the US. lol
Do any of you have multiple synchronicities everyday too? Like I’ll hear a word on a podcast and see it outside or on a screen or TV at the exact same time? It happens like 5 or 6 times a day, everyday. Or I’ll put my hand on top of my head and then the video or podcast I’m listening to says “top of your head” at the exact same second? Very eerie and spooky.
Matt, you mentioned in one of your videos that I (Winston) don’t believe in free will. I never said we don’t have any free will at all. I said we have MUCH LESS free will than what Christians and New Agers claim, for many simple reasons. Let me give you many examples. Consider the following simple facts:
1) Those with mental illness and addictions obviously cannot control their minds and hence their free will is impaired. We all know this but New Agers never factor it in. If you can’t control your mind, obviously then it’s not truly free.
2) Even if you have no mental illness, it’s hard to control your mind. Try sitting and meditating for more than 10 min. Most people can’t do it, even if they want to, because the mind is hard to control. Even Buddhists note this. What does that tell you?
3) Our body sometimes makes involuntary movements we didn’t choose. For example, when you bite your tongue or your hand drops your phone, you don’t choose to do those things. Your body has a mind of its own sometimes. We’ve all experienced this. We do not have full control over our body.
4) What about those with ADHD like me? Or autism or bipolar or OCD or schizophrenia? Those are obvious impairments to free will and mental control. Why can’t we choose not to have them? What about intrusive thoughts in OCD and rumination? Why can’t we choose not to have them?
5) The star of the TV series Airwolf, Jan Michael Vincent, became an alcoholic for the rest of his life after the show. He was never able to recover, even with the best professional help. Where was his free will to choose not to be an alcoholic? Also see the Jack Lemmon movie “Days of Wine and Roses” and tell me if he and his wife had any free will?
6) If you listen to interviews with serial killers, they always say that some evil force or urge took over them that they couldn’t control. They never say that they killed people out of free will. What does that tell you? Where is their free will?
7) The man who shot John Lennon said that voices kept telling him he had to do it. He fought with them for over a year but they told him it was his destiny and couldn’t be avoided. Read his testimony and you will see. Where was his free will? If he had free will he would have just ignored the voices and not obeyed them.
8) Everyone has heard the saying that you can only be yourself and cannot be something you are not. That’s true. Try being something you’re not and see what happens. Obviously, if you cannot be something you are not, then you are not free to choose to be something you are not. Hence your free will is restricted of course. It’s a no brainer.
9) I definitely don’t feel like I have total control over my mind. I often feel like my mind is my enemy and contains inner demons that I can’t control. It also blocks me a lot too and thwarts my decisions so I cannot always do what I want or know is best for me. Where is my free will? Pray tell.
10) Most people seem to be on auto pilot. They go through the same routine everyday and do and say the same things everyday, like a bot almost. They never have any new ideas or theories or thoughts. They seem to run on some kind of script or program. They seem like they’re in some kind of trance too. I’m sure you agree. That doesn’t seem very “free” to me.
11) We’ve all experienced moments where we did something we normally wouldn’t do and then wondered afterward “Why did I do that? Normally I would have never done that.” It’s as if something took over our mind for a moment. Very freaky. What does that tell you?
12) Did you know that even the Bible never mentions free will anywhere? Not even once? You can look it up in any Bible search engine or Google. On the other hand, there are many Bible verses about predestination and election (the doctrine that God chooses who is to be saved, not us), which many of the early Protestant Reformers believed in. Christians would be shocked to find this out, since free will is a central doctrine in Evangelical Christianity, since they need it to blame mankind for the fall in the Garden of Eden. Otherwise their beliefs collapse. Same with New Agers, they need free will or else their beliefs and paradigm collapses. Hence free will is a PHILOSOPHY, not a fact, and should be treated as such. No one can prove that free will exists. It’s impossible. I’m sure you know that. Think about it. Hence you should state it as your personal belief, not as a fact.
Do you see what I mean now? All the examples above support my claim that our free will is very limited and we don’t have as much of it as New Agers and Christians and most Westerners claim. We definitely don’t have total free will. It’s not all or nothing, as you say. I never said that free will doesn’t exist. It probably does, but only a small percentage of highly aware and conscious people have it. Not everyone. It’s also not totally free and uninhibited and unimpaired either. Do you agree? If not, tell me where I’m wrong and in err. What about the above do you disagree with? Isn’t all the above obvious? This is all very simple and logical, nothing complicated about it. Why am I the only one who dares to state the simple and obvious? Everyone else seems to be running on a script or trance or hive mind, like an NPC that can only parrot what their tribe says.
Matt, I have a question for you about telekinesis. Only one in a million people have it, and those who do have it can only move very small objects like toothpicks or matchsticks. They cannot move large objects like Yoda did in “The Empire Strikes Back”. So this begs the question: If the average person in your community cannot even move tiny objects like toothpicks and matchsticks with their minds, then how can our minds be all powerful as you and New Agers claim? This is a simple question.
Also, you still didn’t address why Bruce Lipton or Joe Dispenza can’t use their “all powerful thoughts” to reverse their aging or cure their balding hair or reverse their gray hair? They always insinuate that thoughts are all powerful and can change everything, including our own DNA. So the fact that they can’t even do that means that they discredit themselves right? Why am I the only spiritual person and New Ager that asks this obvious logical question? It’s like everyone else is a bot and can’t think or apply basic logic.
Also you didn’t address why disappointment exists if we always get what we expect. How come you can be positive and optimistic yet things can still go wrong and end in disappointment? Being positive doesn’t give you positive outcomes, as we all know. We’ve all had experiences where things turned out better than we expected, or worse than we expected. How do you explain that? How come every New Ager runs away in fear or gets stumped by such simple questions? Is everyone in the spiritual community living a lie even though they claim to be truth seekers? Very odd and ironic.
Also I’m sure you know that believing 100 percent that you can walk through walls or jump off a roof and fly, doesn’t make it so. Try it and see. How do you explain that if you claim that thoughts are all powerful?
Do you see what I mean? Just because something is popular or politically correct and is what everyone wants to hear, doesn’t make it true. I’m sure you know that. Claiming that thoughts are all powerful might sell books, but it contradicts basic logic and common sense and everyday experience. How come?
If you look at long term credible psi studies, such as Princeton PEAR and the Ganzfeld experiments, you will see that they concluded that the human mind only has a MICROSCOPIC affect on reality. Not an all powerful one like the movies show and what New Agers claim. None of the serious credible parapsychologists claim that thoughts are all powerful. Even the best selling book “The Conscious Universe” by Dr. Dean Radin concludes this too. The most credible psi researchers like Rupert Sheldrake or Dean Radin agree with me on this. It’s all very obvious. Why can’t you accept obvious simple logic?
Finally Matt, do you realize that the “thoughts create everything” mantra is very VICTIM-BLAMING? It insinuates that every bad thing that has happened to you and all your bad luck and disappointments and frustrations are all your fault, even if you did nothing wrong and you are innocent. That’s one of the pet peeves I have with American and New Age culture, they always try to blame you for everything, often unjustly, even if you are not at fault. It’s very cruel and unjust and inaccurate too. You should point this out to Frank too, or forward this to him, since he believes that “we create everything”. It sounds so self-delusional. Why are Americans so self-delusional? I don’t get it. The sane rational people in Europe don’t believe that they “create everything” and that their minds are godlike and all powerful. Only Americans believe that, how come?
