Tic Tac Toe

Siddhananda begins with “Now this one is an odd one.” She hears:

Tic, Tac, Toe… Three in a row…

She is shown the game with three X's lined up, then two O's and three X's.

Siddhananda and G are laughing and looking at each other wondering where are they going from there. G says she hopes it's not three strikes and you're out.

“Exactly, that wouldn’t be good,” Siddhananda laughs.

The spirit says:

When you play the game of life, you always think someone wins or loses. If you stop playing the game, then all win. If you stop playing the game or playing games with yourself, everyone wins. You win... everyone wins. You have gained everything. Even if you lose the game, you gain the heart… the soul.

The spirit is reflecting two zeros instead of two O's that are usually used in this game because this speaks to the symbolic meaning with the 0 and the X. They like the 0 and the X in a way because the X is saying no more mind and the 0 is what you go to.

Siddhananda explains that it's like when you have something you just X it out... you're done with that, and then you go to the 0.

“This spirit likes the X and the O,” Siddhananda laughs. “Which, hey, that’s kind of cool.”

It's like what G said: Three strikes and you’re out.

Have you had enough of that mind? Three strikes... How many lessons do you need to learn in karma?

Siddhananda laughs, “It's a good message.”

“Who ever knew Tic Tac Toe was so cosmic,” says G.

“I love it,” Siddhananda laughs. “This person seems pretty sharp. It makes sense though.”

G laughs, “Yes it does, it does.”

“No more mind,” Siddhananda says, making a big X with her fingers. “Go to the O (big O gesture)… Zero… That’s what they wanted me to do.”

They say good job Siddhananda! (laughter)

“Thank you so much… That was good,” Siddhananda says.

They are sending a flower.

Siddhananda shows a flower gesture. “There’s your flower.”

“We never know what’s going to come through,” says G.

“It makes sense,” Siddhananda laughs. “Somehow the symbology makes sense.”

Siddhananda ends with, “It would be funny to make a road sign where you had mind there with a big X… put that as a bumper sticker or something.” (laughter)
