Universe is Talking

A couple of days ago, my husband mentioned to me (as he had seen on the news) that soon a new incarnation of Dalai Lama would be searched for. 

On the following day, I saved a random movie for us to watch. I did not have the faintest idea what the film was about - I saved it because the name of the director - Martin Scorsese. Most of his movies were good so I thought it could be an interesting show to see.

Yesterday, we watched the movie. It appeared to be a story of a child found by a Tibetan monk and recognized as a next incarnation of Dalai Lama. We thought, "How funny", considering the synchronicity - we had just talked about that search for another Dalai Lama. 

The movie was actually a kind of biography. While watching it, we realized it was telling about the early years of the current Dalai Lama.

It became even funnier later, after we fished watching the show. My husband looked at the news again - and then, to our surprise and astonishment, there it was - an article about Dalai Lama's 90th birthday. How weird and extraordinary! Considering geography and the time difference between places, at the time when we were watching Kundun waiting for his 18th birthday and the time when he was officially appointed as the 14th Dalai Lama, the same Holy Man celebrated his 90th birthday.

I wish we could synchronize so well with the lotto numbers. Somehow, it does not work in that way, though.

Happy Birthday to Dalai Lama 💮
