Afterword: A Strange Reality

Terms you must own

Synchronicity — define it as Jung does and say what it does not claim about cause.
Repeater — say what Zeland calls himself and what he denies being.
Tilted lifelines — say what a tilt against the time axis and against the space axis would allow.
Invariance — say why he holds that the principles survive a change of model.

Objectives

0 of 6 ticked

A.1Define synchronicity, retell one of Jung's cases and Zeland's beetle, and say what Jung left undecided.
explain Evidence: retell the fish series or the golden scarab, then state the open question. [0:02:10] [0:06:36] [0:09:05]
A.2State the two directions of cause he accepts for a synchronicity and trace each through heart, mind and information field.
explain Evidence: write both as short chains. [0:08:11] [0:10:42]
A.3Explain how tilting lifelines against the time or space axis yields travel in time or space, and use it to answer the murdered-parents paradox.
apply Evidence: say who the time traveller meets in his own childhood, and why no film frame is damaged. [0:14:46] [0:15:54] [0:16:43]
A.4Say what he claims for the alternatives model, what he calls it instead, and what he would drop.
analyse Evidence: write one paragraph on why the principles are "invariant". [0:00:00] [0:11:36] [0:24:48]
A.5Name three supports he offers (Jung, Bell, the television scientist) and say what each shows and does not.
analyse Evidence: write one limit per support; mark where "no model is better" meets "there is no doubt". [0:11:36] [0:22:07] [0:24:09]
A.6State what "repeater" claims about the book's source, and restate the closing principle (focus of intention steers the flow) as a method, not a technique.
apply Evidence: take one goal from your week; say what you would hold in mind and stop planning. [0:29:41] [0:31:06] [0:32:04] [0:33:04]

Readiness check

Answer these without looking anything up.

What does Jung's synchronicity claim, and what does it leave unproven?
Which two causes does Zeland allow, and how does the heart fit into each?
What does a lifeline tilted against the time axis allow, and why is there no paradox?
What would change if lifelines were dropped, and what would not?
Where does his case rest on anecdote or analogy?
Why does he call himself a "repeater", and why is Transurfing not steps one, two, three?

The one idea to state before putting the book down: your thoughts, held as a clear picture of the goal and free of excess importance, set the direction of the alternatives flow, so the means arrive without your forcing them.

I can answer all of these
