802.0. "Dejavu in Dejavu" by USAT05::KASPER (Life is like a beanstalk, isn't it...) Fri Jul 22 1988 10:00

This is prompted from Cindy's bit of synchronicity with "Bridge Across
Forever".  This has happened to me more than once with Dejavu and it
might be interesting to see who else may have experienced 'coincidences'
such as this.

I'll relate a recent one.  Several weeks ago I went looking for a book
on meditation at the book store.  On the shelf there were about thirty
to forty books.  I fumbled through them not finding one I felt good
about.  My daughter was along (10 years old) and grabbed one and asked,
"How about this one?".  I superficially glanced at it, decided it looked
to complex and put it back (to her dismay).  I left the store without
the book.  During the next week, I read a note (Why work from the Inner)
in which Meredith recommended a book on meditation.  It really 'tripped
my trigger', so to speak.  I went to the book store to buy it and 
discovered it was the one my daughter suggested!  What a 'coincidence'
(right)...  I bought the book and found it to be very helpful.

Any more stories out there?

802.1How do they do it?BTO::BEST_GThu Jul 28 1988 08:1823
    
    
    I don't remember any such experiences concerning this notesfile
    right now, but I believe they have occured.
    
    I did have an experience similar to yours though.  After being married
    for a little over two years I finally got to meet my wife's parents
    this spring.  They live in Texas and since we were in Vermont and
    they were a little financially overextended they couldn't make it.
    While they were here I went with my father-in-law to a local store
    to look for old, out-of-print paperbacks.  While I was looking around
    I found a book with a humorous title(something like _V.D._and_You_).
    I held it up for him to see and I was going to make some comment
    about it, but he wasn't looking, so I gave up and put the book back
    deciding he wouldn't think it was that funny anyway.  Ten minutes
    later I was checking out books in another section when I heard my
    name and looked up to my father-in-law holding up the book and saying
    "Here's what you need, Guy."  I was dumbfounded.  There were a LOT
    of books in this store.

    When I said my in-laws couldn't make it I meant to our wedding.
    
    Sorry.  Skipped a groove there.

         Did your father-in-law imply that his daughter has VD problems?
    Or that you might have some to give to her?  ;-)

    Fortunately, my father-in-law is not in a position to know one way
    or the other!

802.5Dejavu: The CheckMAMIE::RPOLANDFri Jan 13 1989 19:4639
    
    	Concerning what is known as dejavu I have had an innumerable amount
    of them. This sensation that I have been here before seems in my
    life anyway quite common. I have begun to understand why. 
    
    	Recently I built a home. The house was nearing completion and
    I wass standing on a ladder painting near the back window of the
    garage when suddenly it all flashed through my mind and body. I
    have been here before. The smells, the sense of touch, every minut
    detail was identical to my being there before. It was so strong
    this time that I almost fell of the ladder. I reverted at this point
    into what i would call a dream state. This is appropriate since
    as I received a revelation as to where I was before to see this
    all and experience it again.
    
    	The revelation is simple because life is simple. I dreamed it
    all. What I dreamed came forward into my conscious state of being
    which was to build that home and when nearly completed at the correct
    time I touched the dream for a moment so that my being would havethe
    check yes I was right on course.
    
    	I believe that dreams are the visions we receive from God to
    direct our destinies. God gives to each of us the programming and
    then in a moment of time we have that sensation of being there before,
    or living this once, we did in the visions, or dreams.
    
    	I had never been in any similar situation and yet I recognized
    it all.
    
    	The same when I went to Jersey to visit my cousin we were walking
    down the street and I walked past a sign and I recognized the people
    walking past and I stopped and I said I have been here before. I
    hadn't been to Jersey for five years at that time. I said Yes I
    remember and told my cousin that there was a store and I named the
    store just a little further down. He said how did I know that, I
    told him I had been there with him. He said no way, they just built
    the place this year. 
    
    	I could go on. But must go.
