This question came to me this morning as I was awakening from sleep: “When is the combining moment?” The message was so clear, seemingly unrelated to images I was dreaming of at that moment: four archways in a row, a lit candle darting back into the chambered archway. It went into the farthest left arched opening as a word, not spoken, not written but presenting as “Halloween,” which I consciously associated with October 31, but in no direct correlation to the images of a lit candle on a sliding shelf that slid back into the arched chamber.
Once at my writing station I immediately looked for the word, combining in the Synergetics Dictionary, to no avail. Combining was not listed therein. After I logged into my computer and word processor, I deliberately looked for “combining” in Corel WordPerfect’s Oxford University Press Dictionary and Thesaurus. The dictionary showed, ‘combining form’ as a noun, a form of a word normally used in combination with another element to form a word as life in biology. But no reference to the word, ‘combining’ was listed there. Nevertheless, I was still very curious as to how I could better understand the dreamlike question, which clearly was ‘combining,’ and not combining form. Dreamlike, because I was not fully awake and ready to greet the morning; I was in the process of waking up. So, I deliberately took time to type out every example synonym for combining form in the Thesaurus, which is so extensive, it filled a page. I realized those verbs and nouns in any developed content could result in a more comprehensively sustaining clarity of thought than was I to forget it as just another dreamlike message, nothing deeper that than that.
What could it mean of relevance to my most recently considered concerns about events in the world and the anticipatory design science of the Synergetic Age, A New World Religion? In this entire regard, my mind is occasionally more inclined to concentrate on it than other times when my attention wanders over anything of momentary interest. I can be distracted by seemingly as interesting everyday events than deliberately focusing on relevant solutions to most serious concerns.
