my mind begins to hum...

exactness of not being politically correct, to avoid offending
nonconventional mores, leaves me to dwell in ponder
of how profundity grows.

vibrant as the core
milky smooth; graceful touch flow
astral form didn't break sweat

when i sit alone, midst the humdrum of society,
there is less dilution of experiencing the
desire to deepen meditative states; i bask in the
comparison as i strengthen metaphysical resolve

purpose ability expression;
association alignment environment

In the Old World, archaeology has tended to focus on the study
of physical remains,
the methods used in recovering them
and the theoretical and philosophical underpinnings
in achieving the subject's goals.

According to American archaeologist Walter Taylor
in A Study of Archeology
(American Anthropological Association 1948),
"Archaeology is neither history nor anthropology.
As an autonomous discipline,
it consists of a method
and a set of specialised techniques
for the gathering, or 'production' of cultural information".

Synchronicity is the experience of two or more events
which occur in a meaningful manner,
but which are causally inexplicable to the person or persons experiencing them.
The events would also have to suggest
some underlying pattern.

Carl Jung coined the word
to describe what he called
"temporally coincident occurrences of acausal events."

Jung variously described synchronicity as an "'acausal connecting principle'"

It differs from mere coincidence
in that synchronicity implies not just a happenstance,
but an underlying pattern or dynamic
expressed through meaningful relationships or events.

It was a principle
Jung felt
encompassed his concepts of archetypes
and the collective unconscious,
in that
it was descriptive of a governing dynamic
that underlay the whole of human experience and history
â€” social,
emotional,
psychological,
and spiritual.
