Hans Bender, a German parapsychologist, met with C. G. Jung in December 1960, and their recorded discussion is presented in English for the first time. The article describes synchronicity through Bender's personal experiences during a drive to an Eranos Conference and a Parapsychology Foundation workshop in August 1960, while his mother suffered a fatal stroke. Bender, familiar with the route, had intensely emotional experiences at certain places that he later interpreted as synchronistic with her death.
