Thomas Mann 1933 Surely,
that, is hardly the same thing, said the scribe. Is it
not, said Zed Aliz, who, playing the part perfectly,
continued, "Kammerer
spent hours sitting on benches in various public parks,
noting down the numbers of people / Page 86 / tables
and found that on every parameter they showed the typical
clustering phenomena familiar to statisticians, gamblers and
insurance companies. He made the necessary allowances for
such causal factors as rush-hour, weather,
etc.6" / Page 87 / Kammerer
was particularly interested in temporal Series of recurrent
events; these he regarded as cyclic processes which
propogate themselves like waves along the time-axis of the
space-time continuum. But we are aware only of the crests of
the waves, which appear to us as isolated coincidences,
while the troughs remain unnoticed. ( He thus reverses the
sceptic's argument that out of the multitude of rand om
events we only pick those which are significant.) The cycles
may be caused either by causal factors (i.e. planetary
motion) or patterned by Seriality
-
as
the lucky runs of gamblers. He devotes a chapter to previous
theories of periodicity, from the Pythagoreans' magic seven
to Goethe's "revolving circle of good and bad days", up to
Freud -
who
believed in cycles of twenty-three and twenty-seven days
which somehow combine to produce the data of significant
events. "Some of the chapters in the book, particularly those dealing with physics, contain naïve errors; others show tantalising flashes of intuition I have compared its effect to that of an Impressionist painting which has to be viewed from a distance; if one puts one's nose into it, the details turn into clumsy blobs. While thus the theoreti-cal part can hardly stand up to critical scrutiny, this first attempt at a systematic classification of coincidental events may find some unexpected applications at some future date. These things happen in science. It may also be the reason why Einstein gave a favourable opinion of the book; he called it original and by no means absurd".* He may have remembered that the non- / Euclidian
geometries, invented by earlier mathematicians more or less
as a game, provided the basis for his relativistic
cosmology. / Page 89 / among
the sorcerors of Copenhagen. Years earlier he had produced,
by a brilliant sleight of hand, one of the key concepts of
modern physics, the Pauli Exclusion Principle, which says,
roughly speaking, that only one electron at a time can
occupy any "planetary orbit" inside an atom.* The Exclusion
Principle was a purely mathematical construct, for which no
justification in terms of physical causation could be
invoked - except the fact that without it quantum theory
made no sense. / causal,
non-physical factors operating in nature. Even the Exclusion
Principle "acts like a force although it is not a force". He
probably had a more profound insight than his
fellow-sorcerors into the limitations of science. When he
was fifty, he wrote a penetrating study on the emergence of
science from mysticism, as reflected in the ideas of
Johannes Kepler - who was both a mystic and the fonder of
modern astronomy.* The essay is called "The influence of
Archetypal Ideas on the Scientific Theories of Kepler", and
originally appeared in a series of monographs published by
the Jung Institute in Zurich.11 Page 90 continued. "But
Pauli went further than devising physicalistic theories to
explain ESP in causal terms. He felt that this was hopeless,
and that it were preferable and more honest to accept that

were the visible traces of untraceable a-causal principles
in the universe. This provided the basis for his
collaboration with Jung." This has arrived, for inclusion said Zed Aliz.

"Following discoveries about the nature of light, magnetism, and electricity in the nineteenth century, the theory of a / Page 108 / "vibrating universe" became very popular in occult circles, but it was Pythagorus, in the fifth century B.C., who first de-veloped the idea. The notion that all the universe is connected in a grand design has always been fundamental to magic, and the Pythagoreans used the mathematical relationship of musi-cal intervals to express this pattern numerically. They were the first professional numerologists. Devotees of number sys-tems point to the seven colours in the rainbow, the seven days in the week, the seven seals of Christendom, the seven Devas of Hinduism, the seven Amsha-Spands of Persian faith, and so on , claiming occult properties for this and other special numbers. Goethe was obsessed with three, Swoboda swore by twenty-three, and Freud believed in periods of twenty-seven. It is difficult to see biological significance in any of these in-tervals, and tempting to dismiss the whole idea on the grounds that any number is as likely as any other, but it seems that this is not true." Alan f. Alford Chapter Seven Page 236 "...the
significance of the number '7'.
The number seven,
like 12, was an important number to the gods, and has
remained sacred to mankind ever since. The number is
particularly evident in the Biblical
seven
days of creation, whilst in the New Testament we have the
Book of Revelations with its seven
seals, seven
golden lampstands, seven
angels with seven
plagues, and the seven
bowls
of Gods wrath. The number seven
also appears in other religions and in the apocrypha. The
Koran and the Book of Enoch both describe a journey through
seven
heavens, by Muhammed and Enoch resp-tively, whilst to this
day, Muslim pilgrims must walk seven
times around the Ka'bah in Mecca. Our modern cultures have
also absorbed expressions such as the
Seven
Wonders of the Ancient World' " "...and the
'Seven
Deadly Sins'... " / Page 237 / both
Egyptian and Mayan tradition. According to an ancient
papyrus found in a tomb in Thebes, Thoth the Egyptian god of
Magic, used to challenge mortals to a mysterious 'Game of
52',
which they usually lost. 105 The number also
appears in the Maya's enigmatic Sacred Round of
52
cycles (18,
980
days ), when their sacred year of 260 days would coincide
exactly with their solar year of
365days. The Zed Aliz Zed started to sing, 'What is life to me with out thee' and so on.
I'm mortal writ the scribe, with half an eye on the truth.
And then for want of nothing better to do writ.
365 days 3 x 6 x 5 = 90 and 360 days 3 x 6 x 0 = 18 Writ just like that, as if for the fun of it all.
A better guide never drew breath, said the scribe writing that breathlessly.
"
But what is the ultimate origin of the sacred number
'7'
? Why did the Babylonians write their creation epic on
seven
tablets?
Whilst the seven
stars of the Pleiades may ulti-mately be significant,
Zecharia Sitchin has put forward a very interesting
alternative theory, based on a literal accep-tance of the
ancient texts. Having already identified the association of
twelve gods with twelve planets, he was intrigued by
continual references to the god Enlil known as the Chief God
of the Earth, but also somewhat cryptically as the 'Lord of
7'.
This gave Sitchin the idea that Earth was somehow the
seventh
planet, and he quickly realised that Earth was indeed the
seventh
planet..." Alizzed said three and four make a seven and there are seven letters in Nineveh Taking a cue from the AlizZed the scribe said there are 5 letters in three and 4 in four and 5 + 4 iz 9 This could go on, on and on writ the scribe, noting aziz, the 7 letters in the name Abraham.

Jung used Pauli, so to speak, as a tutor in modern physics.
Jung had experimented in parapsychology and spiritual-
ism from his early days as a student of medicine, to the end
of his life. He refused "to commit the fashionable
stupidity of regarding everything I cannot explain as a
fraud.13" In his early twenties he organised regular
spiritualistic seances; in the course of one of these "a
heavy walnut table, an old heirloom, split with a loud
report, and soon afterwards a bread- knife in a drawer
inexplicably snapped into four parts, again with a sound
like a pistol shot. The four pieces of the knife are still
in the possession of the Jung family." 14
In his memoirs Jung relates a famous episode which took
place when, in 1909, he visited Freud in Vienna, during
the honeymoon of their collaboration (the break was to
come three years later). Jung wanted to know Freud's
opinion on ESP. Freud, at that time rejected it, although
in later years he changed his mind. Jung narrates:
While Freud was going on this way, I had a curious
sensation. It was as if my diaphragm was made of
iron and was becoming red-hot a glowing vault.
And at that moment there was such a loud report in
the bookcase, which stood right next to us, that we
both started up in alarm, fearing the thing was going
to topple over us. I said to Freud: "There that is an
example of a so- called catalytic exteriorisation pheno-
menon."

The text of page 91 is set out as follows
Title of chapter "Seriality and Synchronicity"
Followed by
Three lines of script. The number 3
Eighteen lines of script
Nine lines of script
Page number 91
Total number of individual lines occupied altogether. 33
Number of lines containing text, minus text numbers 3, and 91. 31
Number of lines minus numbers, and heading. 30
Note numbers 13 and 14
Seriality and Synchronicity is the 3rd Chapter of "TheRoots of Coincidence."
Chapter 3 is made up as follows
Part 1. Pages 82 to 88 total = 7 pages
