What If Serendipity Knocks on Your Door Every Day

Here’s how serendipity and karma positively affect the quality of my life and what you can learn from my experience.

I’m inspired to pass along my intuitive thoughts on 23/02/2023 after meeting a 23-year-old man who brought me special news today.

Interestingly, earlier today, a young man knocked on the door several times as our doorbell was faulty, and I did not hear him ringing when I was on a call with a difficult client. Fortunately, he persisted.

He brought me important news in a large folder from another client I had been waiting for for a while. He wanted to have a conversation with his friendly approach and asked my age when talking.

I usually don’t share my age with others and tell them an approximate figure. He said my age was close to his father’s and added he was 23 years old and would like to choose a career similar to mine and asked whether I could coach him.

He said his father was wealthy and would happily pay tuition fees for him to be accepted by a university where I lecture. I told him I’d be glad to coach and mentor him without payment if he would introduce me to his father and visit me at home.

Then, after more conversations, when I heard his father’s name (Bernard) when he was calling him to let him know about the plan, I noticed that his father, whom I used to call Bernie, was one of my college mates at the graduate school.

I hadn’t seen him for 23 years, was expecting a baby, and had to have a break from college. I finished school earlier than him, and we lost contact.

Interestingly, his father works in the same industry as me in a higher executive position, a VP for a client I plan to work with later this year. And I had goosebumps when I heard they live near my best friend Brendon.

After having a delightful conversation at the door, I came to my study room to write my daily journal to reflect on many blessings. I looked at the calendar on my online journal, showing 23 February 2023.

Then I opened my account to write this article, and my readers changed from 22K to 23K on the same day. I am grateful for this opportunity.

I didn’t plan any of these events like I found 23andMe serendipitously, which detected my unknown ancestors whom my parents even didn’t know. They just happened serendipitously, as I am attuned. I have kept having metaphorical angels in my life since I started serendipity and karma in my life.

So four times, hearing/seeing/noticing the number 23 on this day might be interpreted as a coincidence by skeptical people and “hardcore scientists,” but I embraced it as a subtle sign from the subconscious mind as I do not hide in the closet anymore.

Today’s news with my intuitive feelings allowed me to make a long-held decision that I made, cherished, and celebrated with a euphoric moment.

Acceptance or Denial of Serendipity

Serendipity might sound like a new age thought to skeptics, but it is far from it. Many scientists, inventors, artists, and other professionals have used it for centuries. Serendipity is also related to the concept of karma.

Many people believe in these concepts, but some don’t due to a lack of empirical evidence on the outcomes of these concepts. Of course, it is tough to produce empirical evidence through limited scientific methods for anything beyond logic and intellect as they are not measurable.

However, if we only operate with intellect, we miss great opportunities in life. For example, I only achieved around 20% of my outcomes through intellect and did 80% with other cognitive abilities like cognitive intuition and bodily sensations like instincts.

Serendipity, as happened to me multiple times on this platform, is the occurrence of unexpected and valuable discoveries by so-called “chances” or “coincidences” in the scientific vernacular.

But through my decades of experience, these excusing words do not make sense to my intellect and intuition. I respect the perspectives and choices of my fellow scientists and colleagues. I believe many of them will get out of the closet one day, like me, when the serendipity hits them intensely.

I didn’t know about the concept of serendipity until I learned about karma in my teenage years.

My First Awareness of Karma that Thought Me About Serendipity

My first experience with karma happened when I was 14 years old and attending a special school that only educated high achievers. Even though I loved math, I struggled with the demanding coursework. I felt hopeless and frustrated in that complex class.

One day, while taking a break outside, an elderly man (who looked older than my father) approached me kindly and asked for help for his young children, who needed food.

Despite my parents warning me not to talk to strangers, I gave him my pocket money. I still remember every detail on his face reflecting pure love and joy.

When I returned to my study room, I felt a sudden improvement in my problem-solving abilities for this math subject.

The next day, I shared this experience with my academic support teacher (a psychologist), who explained that connecting with others meaningfully can create specific neurochemicals in our brains that could affect our moods and learning abilities.

Her words taught me to listen to my thoughts, emotions, and actions and to be attentive to the karmic effects they create.

This experience was one of many I recorded in my journals, including an encounter with a fortune teller whose words impacted my life a decade later, making karma and serendipity crystal clear in my journey.

Through experimentally learning about my multidimensional aspects and studying esoteric teachings, I realized the importance of compassion for myself and others in creating meaningful memories that could heal emotional traumas and entangled health conditions, break societal fears, and attract loving people to my life.

By observing people and events from our higher self and making decisions based on insights leveraging multiple intelligences, we can create our reality with responsible actions and invest in our karma account.

Accepting all experiences, even negative ones, and responding to them mindfully can contribute to our well-being and improve our mental health.

Here’s How I Incorporated Serendipity and Karma into My Personal and Professional Life.

Studying in STEM schools, I grew up as a skeptical child, but always, some voice whispered to me what was right and wrong when needed.

My parents, friends, and teachers perceived me as using only logic for decision-making, but behind that mask, I made 90% of my decisions with intuition and instincts.

I couldn’t come out of the closet until I met a distinguished mentor (professor and practitioner of psychiatry) who encouraged me to articulate the value of intuition in my academic and professional work openly.

Based on her insights, there was no point in hiding my true self (convictions and values) embedded in my body, mind, and soul to seek external approval.

He also encouraged me to study parapsychology in-depth and leverage their scientific methods to enrich my phenomenological and ethnographic studies by capturing experiences empirically in case studies.

Intuition is a form of knowledge acquired without analysis or conscious reasoning. It manifests as an immediate and unexplainable sense of understanding or insight from the subconscious mind.

Even though I had to deal with some noise from people acting from their lower self (ego), surprisingly, many people in academic and professional environments respected my intuitive thoughts and feelings about nonmeasurable concepts like serendipity and karma.

Unlike common beliefs, intuition is not instinct, despite similarities. While intuition is a cognitive ability that is a human privilege, instinct is a bodily function in humans, animals, and plants.

An instinct is an automatic behavior that is genetically programmed. They serve specific functions, such as reproduction and social behavior, mainly for survival.

Back to serendipity!

When I delved into information technology theories, seeing the use of the term serendipity delighted me. I kept hearing about serendipity machines when I started studying computer networks before the manifestation of the Internet.

My heroes like Marvin Minsky, Seymour Pappert, and others (mentioned in this story) increased my confidence to use the term serendipity and apply it to my professional life as an intuitive power.

In later years, studying quantum computing intellectually and intuitively convinced me that we are multidimensional beyond the body and mind, unlike some scientists still deny. Perhaps they live in closets as I did in my junior years to impress my peers and lecturers.

I love our analytical abilities, which distinguish us from other animals. But when I learned to integrate our analytical capabilities as part of the intellect with intuition, my personal and professional life dramatically changed through serendipity.

Having a delightful curiosity for unknowns, being open to encounters, and embracing subtle signs beyond intellect during my research gave me a new dimension.

For example, combining intellect and intuition with this mindset helped me see invisible connections in events and with people.

Consequently, I learned manifesting outcomes out of nowhere. This capability helped me become an inventor in my profession.

However, the most significant impact of using intuition happened on problem-solving abilities for paid jobs.

For example, the company I worked for assigned me to support demanding clients who wanted me to create solutions in areas where no information was available.

In these challenging times, tapping into my intuition with the help of my intellect and serendipitous encounters allowed me to develop solutions and delight my customers as I offered them combinatorial innovations.

Serendipitous encounters and discoveries arose from persistence and the willingness to keep exploring even when things seemed impossible or during substantial setbacks.

Divergent thinking became a critical tool in my mental toolbox. I did not fear wild ideas popping out of nowhere during showers, walking in nature, meditating, visualizing, flow state, self-talk, or lucid dreams.

Colleagues from technology and science communities couldn’t explain these ideas using scientific methods and technology jargon.

But they had to admit they were real and impactful, like the serendipitous discovery of Viagra, the X-ray machine, the microwave oven, and relativity theory.

Some scientist friends and colleagues don’t believe in consciousness or magic, but we live these phenomena moment by moment with every breath on this planet.

Nothing is more real than consciousness and magic, but our primitive scientific methods cannot explain them. Those frustrated and anxious people have no clue when I tell them everything is “figureoutable.”

Several concepts increased my understanding of magic and awareness of consciousness, clarifying the role of karma and serendipity that positively impacted my life.

For example, empathy, compassion, tolerance, humility, reciprocity, response, responsibility, acceptance, connection, and collaboration are a few concepts within this context.

Life on earth is not perfect and never will be. Conflicts and paradoxes are a natural part of the physical world. While we can’t control the external world, we can control our inner world and influence the outer one.

When I learned about serendipity and karma, I asked my higher self how to create serendipity and collect karma, allowing me to enrich my subconscious mind.

I soon realized that the more faith I had and accepted and tolerated people and events, the better I connected with them, no matter how challenging they were.

Faith, acceptance, and tolerance are potent tools that might help us manifest the life we want if we use them with intellect and intuition.

Beliefs are a vital aspect of the spiritual domain. Through my feelings and experiences, I believed in the power of serendipity and karma.

Traditional scientific studies only look at phenomena logically with data, but we are multidimensional beings. Most of our subjective experiences cannot be captured and represented with data.

Believing in serendipity and karma has helped me to tap into my subconscious mind to leverage the power of intuition, which resulted in making informed decisions and creating meaningful memories.

By following the invisible rules of synchronicity and karma in my life, I ensure that my joy does not come from other people’s failures, which has had a significant impact on my freedom in life.

Therefore, serendipity and karma have given me internal freedom and external liberation in this complex world. By understanding these invisible universal rules, I now have a choice to be happy for no external reason.

What do these perspectives mean to you as a reader?

I didn’t write this story to impress you with my unusual achievements or convince you if you are skeptical about terms like intuition, serendipity, or karma. These vanity metrics will not give me any pleasure or satisfaction.

However, if you can read this story with an open mind and consider the takeaway points, you might feel a significant positive shift in your life, manifesting serendipitous encounters that you will not be able to explain with intellect but will feel in every fabric of your soul.

If I can make such an impact in your life with my humble stories and messages, it will make me euphoric and add millions of karmic dollars to my account.

I don’t believe in making unrealistic promises like losing 50 pounds in a week or owning a Ferrari by next year.

However, keeping an open mind for new and unusual ideas can reset your conscious and unconscious mind, leading to unexpected moments of joy and fulfillment that may come from unexpected sources, as Rumi calls from the beyond, as I explained in a previous story.

Greet them at the doorsteps with a smile.

Invite them all inside and embrace them as your guests.

Show your appreciation to whoever visits your house.

See them as guides coming beyond the self.

These concepts are successfully and delightfully used by many people working on mastery in any discipline or different facets of life. Those masters were labeled as prodigies, but most were ordinary people like us, eating, drinking, sleeping, and worrying.

If you read biographies of outstanding scientists, inventors, or other influential people in history, you will notice that their secret source is tapping into their subconscious mind through RAS and using intellect and intuition like yin and yang, not having a high IQ.

I made much better decisions in the absence of information with intuition than when I used analytical skills relying on big data, such as for real estate stock markets or cryptocurrency investments.

Noticing some NDE survivors in my circles who were diligently skeptical about anything science cannot prove, I started embracing intuition to make their decisions.

The key takeaway from this story is to stay curious and open to all possibilities, whether they are scientifically verifiable or not, and look for patterns or subtle signs and evaluate them with your intellect, intuition, and instincts to make decisions to act and change your behavior.

A healthy dose of skepticism can be helpful for risk management. But if you pretend to be a skeptic to impress others or protect yourself from intellectual wars, it is not worth it.

From my experience, most reasonable people will support you in your intuitive journey if you deal with them with humility, acting courteously, kindly, emphatically, and compassionately while keeping your self-love.

If this story does not resonate with you now, please consider saving it and checking the key points when you feel good about yourself. The message of this story is not ordinary. It has the potential to have a significant impact on your life.

Thank you for reading my perspectives. I wish you a healthy and happy life.
