71.      Wesley’s Theory of Relativity (17), expanded. “Absolute” exists only in fantasy. Everything sensually perceived is “relative” to our perceptions of what is around it. Lead two people into a dimly lit room, one from the bright sunlight and one from a darkened cellar. The first will exclaim how dark it is and the second will shield his or her eyes from the light. Yet neither will be able to see.

72.      Back to if/then. Most often, we can see the possibilities within certain realms for expanded thought. In terms of the color example, if red, then not blue, yellow, green, or orange. If not red, then blue, yellow, green, or orange, ad infinitum. But truly creative thinking breaks free of even these restraints. Consider these possibilities for expanded thinking. If not red, then cool. If not red, then slow. If not red, then weightless. If not red then growing. If not red, then free. Each phrase leads the mind to a different way of considering red: hot, fast, heavy, ripe, captive. And those are only the obvious ones.

73.      The genius of the human mind is the ability to multiply sensual perceptions by associating the seemingly unrelated with each other.

74.      The Laws of Coincidence. The cosmic laws of coincidence are less real and more binding than the human laws of physics. And that is the first premise of the law of coincidence: The less real, the more binding.

75.      The second premise of the law of coincidence is that coincidence cannot be planned.

76.      Third, coincidence is everywhere, always.

77.      Fourth, coincidence cannot be created, but can always be recognized.

78.      Fifth, the more coincidental entities available, the more coincidences that are possible. While the number of possible coincidences increases, however, the probability of coincidence is unaffected by the number of coincidental entities available. The first corollary to this is that you are never alone, i.e. out of the reach of coincidence.

79.      Ultimately, coincidence always works for universal good.

80.  Consider this line of thinking (73) and the number of possibilities from the statement, “If not automobiles, then pencils.” What lines of transportation can be developed by following this linear equation.
