Greetings from his most High, most Holy, most High...uh-hm...
Krishna Morty---how's everyone feelin' today? Ahhh....too bad!!
I have chosen as the topic of today's set/sermon--- Synchronicity.
No, I'm not talking about the Police's album back in the '80's.
And no, it's not if you don't pay your Synchro bill, you have your synchronicity turned off.
Synchronicity is that phenomenon usually categorized by the unenlightened as "coincidence". It is in truth an instant manifestation of a Divine guidepost or direction, to both remind you that you are on your Path and to direct your further progress upon it.
For example, Krishna Morty was tooling down the avenue yesterday at 50 mph, when ---all of a suden I saw a bright light---it was a bright red light---had not I seen that red light, I would have continued as I was and been creamed by several speeding cars. Hare Krishna!!!
How many time have you thought of a close one you have not spoken to in a quite awhile, and when you call them, you get a voice telling you that you do not have to enter a one before dialing, and after you don't add a one, they tell you you have to add a one, and then you get an answering machine with a strange voice because you've dialed the wrong number?
But every so often you will make such a call to a long incommunicado friend, and he tells you that he was just about to pick up the phone and call you? And you actually believe him?!!
Although not a betting man, Krishna Morty was once struck with numerous appearances one day of the words "Sea Cucumber" in diverse places---I then became aware that there was a horse by that name running in the fourth race at Aqueduct.
Feeling that I was being guided toward the acquisition of a fortune in money by betting the Ashram on this steed---money to be used of course for the spiritual and physical improvement of fellow beings---(after, of course I paid my VISA bill)
Well, needless to say, Sea Cucumber finished so far back in the race that he was actually heard to say to the jockey "What the hell are you whipping me for? There's nobody behind us!!" So far back that they had to hold off the fifth race for ten minutes while my horse finished the course.
This teaches us that sometimes the Great Cosmic Poo-Bah likes to test our faith by tempting us into unwise choices.
The term synchronicity was coined by the great psychiatrist Carl Jung (as Freud once said, "Oh to be Jung again!!")
The circumstances were that he was analyzing a woman who had a very vivid dream in which a scarab beetle played a major role---at that exact moment when the woman mentioned the insect, the beetle, which was thousands of miles away from its natural habitat, appeared on the window of Jung's consulting room.
Jung was amazed and shocked---however , he also had a morbid fear of insects and dashed the poor creature against the window glass with a rolled-up copy of The Journal of the German Psychiatric Gobbledegook. When Jung reported this incident and his theory of synchronization at the next Psychiatric Convention, he got more laughs than when a young comic named Shecky Shickelgruber warmed up the crowd with his set titled,
"That's funny; You Don't Look Juden!"".
To sum up my beloved followers---and I really mean that sincerely...
Keep looking for the signs, keep looking for the rainbow, keep looking for the union label and for Christ sake KEEP WATCHING THE SKIES!!
