Subject: [MD] Synchronicity and Quality

Hi,
I was wondering if there had been any discussion on the topic of
synchronicity in terms of Quality.  I am referring to the term as
expounded by Jung, but am expanding it to ultimate synchronicity.

Several times, following self-induced (non-drug) psychosis I have
arrived at a place where every single thing is synchronous.  That is
everything is connected with meaning.  It was both amazing and
disturbing, and I quickly put back the filter of logic and reasoning.
It taught me not to dabble too much in that kind of thinking.  However,
what I saw blew my mind.  Probably just me going nuts.  What I
experienced was an orchestrated dance.  Sometimes I feel that
perhaps I was somehow one with Quality.  OK, it's crazy, I know, just a state
of mind...

Sometimes I wonder if that is what it feels to be autistic.  I've heard
terms such as poor sensory integration.  That is the mind cannot
construct a pattern from the input the way we do.  Now, I believe that
any way to see reality is as real as any other, but these episodes left
me non-functional in this world, just full of amazement.  Perhaps
being without SOM is not a good way to survive.

So if synchronicity is the ultimate recognition of the tapestry
of the universe, I would think it has something to do with Quality.
It has been proposed by Jean Shinoda Bolen, MD that 
synchronicity  is akin to the Tao(see The Tao of Psychology:
Synchronicity and Self).  She is (was?) a Jungian.

Anyway, synchronicity and Quality, any ideas?  I know
that Dirk Gently has some (and so does Sting for that
matter).

Mark
