Are All Incidents And Events Directly Connected To The Number 23?
They are if you focus on this number and its prominence. Focusing your attention toward a certain pattern of perception is described as forging a ‘reality tunnel’ by the philosopher Robert Anton Wilson. Wilson studied the prominence and recurrence of the number 23. It is considered to be a magical number by the Discordian religion. It’s recurring prominence was first brought to western audiences by the author William S. Burroughs, but this is predated by ’23 Skidoo’, which was an esoteric poem by the author Aleister Crowley, from his ‘Book of Lies’ (1912). Its title derives from the slang phrase, ’23 Skidoo’, first recorded in public use from 1906 and meaning ‘to get out’ or ‘scram’. The use of ’23’, on its own (to mean this same thing) dates from 1899.
The Number 23 is a suspense film starring Jim Carrey, Virginia Madsen, and Danny Huston, directed by Joel Schumacher. It was released on February 23, 2007. The plot involves an obsession with the 23 Enigma, the Discordian belief that all incidents and events are directly connected to the number 23, some permutation of the number 23, or a number related to the number 23.
