The “Synchronicity Games” allow the posts from this site to be opened and read at random, yet their interpretation is guided by the principle of synchronicity.

“A warrior of light is not always a believer. There are moments when he believes in absolutely nothing. He asks his heart: ‘Is it worth putting in all this effort?’ But his heart remains silent. The warrior must decide for himself. Then he seeks an example. He remembers that Jesus passed through something similar, in […]
“A spiritual teacher from India once pointed out that there is no such thing as a gray sky. The sky is always blue. Sometimes, however, gray clouds arrive and cover the blue. Then we think the sky is gray. The same is true of our minds. We are always perfect. We cannot be otherwise. Fear […]
“Anyone who firmly intends to reach the goal must stop paying attention to the dust of everyday life and the small stains that appear on his garment along the way.

“The way of the heart is the way of courage. It is to live in insecurity, it is to live in love, and trust; it is to move in the unknown. It is leaving the past and allowing the future to be. Courage is moving on dangerous paths. Life is dangerous, and only cowards can […]
