SOULS, PARALLEL UNIVERSES AND THE EVOLVING PERSONALITY

 SOULS, PARALLEL UNIVERSES AND THE EVOLVING PERSONALITY

I received this comment by HG and found it very interesting since I was planning on discussing some of these matters in an upcoming article, so we will do it here instead. First, let me thank HG for her insightful comments, and let me reassure her that she is doing exactly what she should do to progress and evolve. I will answer in the order that she asked the questions, her comments and questions will be in italics.

I've been looking for a "spiritual/truthful explanation" that could include the existence of other different kinds of entities and other planes and dimensions, aside from the typical "angels" and "spirit guides" I've heard about.

There is much that I cannot tell you since I am evolving as you are evolving, and there is much that I don't know, at least not yet. There are some things that I do know and these I explain to the best of my abilities in these articles. Evolution is something you can't help, you just do it whether you try or not. The rule is that consciousness is always in a state of becoming and that change infers a steady progression, a sometimes wavering trend of increasing awareness.
I will not go into spirit guides at this time as I had planned the next article along those lines, but I must say that I have to laugh when I read articles about scientists asking the question “Are we alone in the universe?” Let me try and keep this local by saying that there are some planes or dimensions that occupy the same space as your world, but they cannot be perceived and they do not interfere with each other. Transparent moves through transparent and there is no contradiction.
A plane is a specific isolated reality system that offers the necessary ingredients for the enrichment, enhancement and development of the particular kind of beings that inhabit that system. Yours is one, but there are others that share your planet. More than one plane can share a planet, and that is common throughout the universe. I must remind you that the basic reality that underlies all realities is mental. Your earth is one of those that is an outward manifestation of physical matter in a physical universe which arises out of an unstated inner universe.
When you want to know about other alien beings and alien civilizations, you normally want to know about other human-like beings.There are living creatures even on your own planet earth that have their own plane, one being the “deep earth worms” recently discovered living in the rock crevices over a mile deep in mines in Australia, but these are not the ones that peak your interest. In a more random view, since even the atom possesses an elementary type of consciousness, you could say there is nothing in the universe that is not alive, so it is not so far-fetched to view the world as a living organism, which incidentally, many do, and they would be correct.
Angels, as you think of them are pure myth, with some factual truths and they do have some historical basis, entities are another story. I have tried to explain entities/souls throughout these articles, sometimes not too well, I fear. But let me put it this way, very simply, everything is part of something else, fragments of something greater than itself. In an expanded way, you/we are all fragments of All That Is. But in a more personal way, you are a fragment of your entity, just as your dream self is a fragment of you, created by you in a quite similar way that you were created by your entity. The vast differences that separate you and your dream self are minor compared to the psychological distances that separate you and your entity. A part of you, the inner self part has contact with the entity when you sleep, on a level even deeper than your sub-conscious awareness. Your entity is concerned with you about as much as you are concerned with your dream self, not too much. I will be talking in depth about spirit guides in my next article, so won't go into it here.

I've also been looking for an explanation of parallel universes and alter-selves. A funny thought just occurred to me, if our hair color is based on shades of brown, could a different parallel universe's inhabitants have hair that was based on shades of blue? (rannnnndom idea haha) Or what if here, the United States is called "America" but in some other universe it is called "Columbia"? And what if the school material that my alter-self is learning is different based on the environment over there? And what if in some parallel dimensions the time there is shifted over by a day or two? Could that be possible?

Everything that is possible is probable, meaning that it could happen. There are some limitations to that statement, and far too many to go into here but as far as hair color, the same elements that make up the earth, are distributed throughout the universe and since the body is made up of minerals of the earth, contributing to your physical appearance, if those necessary minerals that infuse hair with a brown coloration here, are present in different quantities there, then a blue tinge of color would be a possibility.
On some planets, these elements are just not available in necessary quantities for entities to form a valid reality system that would satisfy their purposes, but if there were, it might include beings that you would consider alien. There are no other “human like” beings in your solar system, but there are in your galaxy. There are other types of life in your solar system, but not what you would call intelligent beings of the human kind. Other aspects of you, probable selves, exist in many probable, parallel worlds, in your earthly neighborhood, and in one their skin has a blue tinge.
As far as “time” is concerned, time as you know it is not a universal attribute of alien systems. In fact, even on your planet, time as you think of it is only experienced by the human species. Animals, fish, birds and so forth, have no idea of time and were it forced on them, they would be totally confused. Time is also illusion, but it is necessary in physical systems of reality.
Because of your physical bodies, with your particular sensory apparatus such as eyes, ears and fingers to name a few, require time for sensed impulses to travel from the nerve endings concerned with that particular sense, travel the nerve pathways, jump the synapses and finally get to the brain, which then interprets the information given to it by the nerves and paints a picture of reality that you can understand. That process equals time. It follows, that other reality systems that are not physically materialized, in somewhat the same manner as your dream self is not physically materialized, do not require time, since the sensual experience is immediate. To them all experience is in an expanded present, with no independent past or future. That is precisely why you can experience a full days activities in a few dream minutes. You still pay homage to time, but it's effects are minimized to a great extent.

It's funny that you address us as "you" as if you are not one of us anymore. It's interesting...I'm so jealous that you got to experience all this knowledge for yourself..so that's why I have a question. I'm not sure if you already addressed this yet as I have been excitedly skimming your entries, and really was eager to ask this.

This is a great question and one that I like to touch on from time to time since many people do not catch the different use of tense in my articles. A lot of this has to do with “Trust” in the source of the material. Some comes directly from me and as simply as I can put it, some comes from other sources that I cannot fully explain. I would say that I simply do not have the knowledge to write some of these articles, but the material is given to me in what I can best be described as automatic writing or something akin to that. It is my feeling that this given knowledge comes to me through a spiritual teacher, and I don't really like the term “Spiritual” but it will have to do for now.
In these articles, I write it as it is given to me and the “YOU” stuff refers to me and you as it is given. When I write something directly from me, something that originates with me, as I did in my first articles many years ago, I wrote from a more personal (I) perspective. The YOU inferences are a rather new thing with me beginning a few years ago. It is my feeling that the material is given by a teacher in my sleep, I then simply trust, and write it as it comes to mind, and I find this hard to explain, since I am never really sure how the material will be written until I begin to write an article, but I trust that I will write it in the way it was meant to be given with my own personal slant and inferences.

Soooo, how do we "grow and evolve psychically?" Do we really have to wait for different lifetimes and the slow process of evolution? I mean, I've never experienced any strange/exciting internal situations as some people have (like astral traveling, true psychic abilities, super creativity, not even deja vu!). I'm an extremely average college girl, except for one external event that triggered everything that I'm searching for right now.

Well my dear HG, unbeknownst to you, you are doing exactly what you should be doing to evolve your awareness and in turn, evolve your spiritual self and you don't have to wait for different lifetimes. I can't put a time frame on it, but the moment you become curious and begin to wonder about the things that you are now wondering about, you are evolving. Evolution is usually considered in terms of millennial time, but it also occurs on a day to day basis. I can tell you this simple truth; when you wonder and question things as they seem to be, when you want to look inside, when you begin to notice your intimate connection to nature, you are evolving. When what you have been taught begins to not strike an affirming chord in your heart, you are on your way. There are answers available, and most of my readers are in the same boat as you, they demand to know what they Know is out there. They are learning, I too am learning, but remember, you must walk before you can run.

But all my searching amounts to is that I find things to read through books or online information, but how can I experience this "magical-ness" for myself? Is it done through meditation and stuff like that? How did you learn about all this? How do I know if my "soul" is ready, when I really really really want to be ready?

You must learn to pay attention. Especially pay attention to your dreams, notice your hunches, your urges, your intuition. Everyone has psychic abilities, though some have not learned how to use or to notice the use of them on a conscious level. In a sense, you already know much of what is written here, in that respect, I am simply one who is here to remind you of what you already know. The full vast knowledge of the soul/entity is available to each of its personalities (you). You are not cut off from the Knowledge of your soul.
You were not born yesterday, and you in particular, by the very nature of your questions, show that you are not a new personality on earth for the first “go around”. You have a history that you brought into this life and you didn't start with a blank slate. No person in their first incarnation would think to ask the questions you ask, so pat yourself on the back and get back to learning. Each person must follow their own path, and you can trust me on this; You are ready, the time to start is now!

So sorry for the very long comment! And thank you for taking the time to answer!

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE SOUL, THE ENTITY AND SPIRITUAL TEACHERS?

The question as it was posed: In reading your articles, you refer to the soul and entity, but you also refer to teachers. My question is this; are the teachers the same as your soul or entity or they something or someone entirely different. I am not clear on this, I am sure I have a soul but how do I know if I have a teacher? Anonymous

I can see that anonymous has been paying attention and it tells me that I have not done a very good job in explaining these matters. We cannot fully explain the reality of the Soul or Entity and teachers without an understanding of your relationship to and within your Soul, your Entity and any teachers you may or may not have. I have said and alluded to many times that everything or everyone, every person, soul or entity exists as part of something else, and of course that infers that you are also not only a part of your soul or entity, but a part of your environment, your world and universe.
What I mean, so there is no confusion, unseen, unknown connections exist both physically and spiritually between you and your natural environment as well as your soul or entity. I must also make clear that your homes, your buildings, monuments, tables, chairs and other household accoutrements are also as natural to your species as the forest is to the birds and animals.
There are unknown tentacles or strands of consciousness existing between you and all perceivable objects in your universe. You create their appearance and psychic connections extend out from your nervous system into the air surrounding you, unperceived psychic chemical properties are projected from the body through the skin creating the resulting physically perceived objects or events to coalesce from atoms, molecules and cells. All physical objects and events are results of inner patterns filled in by the inherent energy driven by consciousness.
For all practical purposes, you are totally independent of your soul/entity with free choice to pursue your own goals and aspirations within certain limitations which do not need to be discussed here. You are a portion of your soul, but free to roam the universe if you choose, experiencing new and completely unique times and places like no one else can, and in that respect you perceive for your soul. I want to clear something up that I may not have done before. You have a soul, many of such souls intertwined with and aligned with physical personalities make up the total identity, the oversoul and a group of oversouls make up the entity.
Entities are likewise part of more advanced entities and this goes on ad infinitum up to and including the initial Prime Source, All That Is. Connections exist between the most exalted and the least and there are no limitations except those that are self imposed. Relationships that exist between the soul and personality exist even though the you each going on with your daily pursuits hardly being aware of each other, and in fact, any kind of meaningful communications between the soul and it's personalities is virtually impossible on a conscious level.
It goes without saying that you cannot experience or perceive other worlds, other beings, souls or entities more advanced than you unless you yourself have evolved to that degree of understanding. In that respect, you must remember that All That Is has been evolving for untold billions of earth years, so you have some catching up to do. Truth be told, you will never understand the reality of even the newest, less developed entities since their reality is unfathomable to one not as accomplished.
But you can do much better if you try by spreading your wings, stepping out of the stone age of false beliefs and worn out, disintegrating belief systems and taking responsibility for the growth of your consciousness and searching for true Knowledge. You can wait and do nothing, repeating the same rusty dogma and you will evolve despite your ignorance, or you can apply your mind and learn what is available to you within your given abilities to understand.
Knowledge is available even though many people believe that they will never know the answers to some of the most elusive spiritual questions and will leave this life as ignorant as they came into it. Answers ARE available to those who search and desire understanding, and in this format we endeavor to relate some of those answers, attempting to explain concepts that are at the very precipice at the edge of comprehension of the human brain, explanations that can be somewhat understood to those who persevere and demand to know that which is not readily known.
You are part of your entity or soul and he, she, it is your closest touchstone to (God), All That Is. You are a splinter personality of your soul, a self aware fragment given life to act in its and your behalf in the physical reality system you call Earth and others, where the soul cannot go. You have latent within your being, all of the attributes and abilities of your soul, held in abeyance for your future expansion through evolution. You are not less than your soul except in the degree of differentiation and knowledge readily available to your consciousness. As your self awareness increases, so your awareness of things that now totally escape you will become natural.
In a way that I struggle to explain, you are all of these other parts as well as being yourself. Your other aspects are alive now in this time and other time periods in your world and in other probable worlds, inhabiting other planes, but they are as simply as I can explain, as much a part of you as your dream self, they are just less accessible at this time. They will become more accessible as you mature and your consciousness grows in comprehension and expands to include more data. Usually, you cannot know about something unless you believe that it exists.
You can contribute to this expansion of your consciousness by paying attention to the nuances of your life, watching for the unexplained occurrences, following hunches, noticing sudden urges to try something new, looking for something where nothing seems to exist and by trying to understand the meanings hidden within your dreams.
You can go to libraries or search on-line for sources of knowledge and you will be surprised how much information is out there waiting to be known. Knowledge is not inert, it wants to be known, and when you want to know, you create something akin to a psychic whirlpool that will attract that knowledge to you. In a sense you become a knowledge magnet and over time you will jettison those false and misleading beliefs that you now harbor so jealously, finding instead real truths instead of fraudulent and non-confirming dogmas.
You have a soul, your soul is part of an oversoul which is comprised of a group of souls. A group of souls forms the entity and groups of entities reside within the scope of more advanced (godlike) entities. Entities are involved in their own pursuits, quite unlike yours of course, with challenges of their own. Your existence within the presence of your soul and its existence within the presence of it's entity goes unnoticed by you and your entity hardly gives it a second thought. You and other personalities like you support the entity and the entity supports you, making your existence possible, but the entity never dominates or tries to influence decisions of the personality.
In explaining the relationship that exists between personalities and the entity, I am tempted to use the word “umbrella” since it very well explains the protective but not restrictive nature of the entity. Personalities can leave entities for another more suitable for expansions of its abilities. There are no restrictions and there is no attempt to coerce the personality by the entity. The relationship exists, but remains in the psychic background.
It goes without saying, that as the personality or identity evolves and advances in its sophistication and Knowledge it becomes more aware of these now unknown psychic connections, and as these relationships become known they are beneficial in many ways, especially in the passing down of Knowledge through the multitudinous layers of dimensions, planes and universes. You, the reader of this article, are an incipient entity/soul if you choose that path in the future. (A very distant future, I may add).
Entities inhabit other dimensions far more advanced than yours, yet the connections endure. Entities and souls do have bodies, though they are not physically materialized as is yours. Entities have their own proclivities, interests and leanings. Entities identify with the male/female sexual orientation, not having a physical body as you think of it and not operating in a sexual nature, but they do have characteristic male/female traits, such as assertive and passive, the source of Anima and Animus traits spoken of by psychologists. That is the reason the male/female traits were adopted in your Earth system. (Of course reproduction had something to do with it too).
Some entities in pursuing their interests choose to be educators/teachers. Some choose other areas of development. Your entity could be your teacher, but that is not likely. Usually a teacher who you have had long standing relationships with over the centuries in many lives, chooses to be your teacher for the practical reasons. It is easier for them to communicate with someone that they have close feelings for and because of those close friendships and emotional ties, to act as your teacher will be easier, finding you across time and space, coming to you in the dream state or otherwise.
Lessons are given to the student in the dream state, meditative states, through automatic writing, trance states or hypnosis. The entity knows when the student is prepared and capable of assimilating the difficult concepts to be delivered. Emotional ties between entity and student are essential and are sought out by the teacher. As more accomplished personalities reach certain states of development, choices are made as to future lines of endeavor, some choosing to become entities, some will become teachers, some following artistic leanings.
The whole affair can be compared to the psychic “Pyramid Gestalt” that I have explained before and is not unlike the traditional corporate structure existing in many of your top companies today. Personalities occupying the most space at the bottom of the pyramid and All That is, God at the top of the pyramid.
To answer one part of the question, not all advanced personalities become entities, that is very advanced identities choosing to create and manipulate many personalities in a multitude of worlds and systems of reality, a pursuit which requires a great deal of knowledge of many alien worlds and planes of existence throughout the physical and non-physical universe, a pursuit I may add with much responsibility.
 All teachers, then are not entities in the true sense of the word, but titles in these cases become meaningless, since there is no real separation between an entity and a teacher. A teacher will not usually have just one student at one time and will be involved with many students in a variety of worlds, but always worlds where it has personally been involved that system in its past. Your teacher in this world, will obviously have been born into the Earth system many times in order to throughly understand it's rules of the game, it's parameters for existence on this plane, otherwise it would be ill prepared to be your teacher.
Spiritual teachers will not make contact with potential earth-bound students until they are ready, having prepared the way, and keeping this in mind the old adage makes a lot of sense;


When the student is ready, the teacher will arrive!

DOES GOD REALLY TALK TO ANYONE?

 There is much to learn and until you begin to get a feeling about who God is or what He is, much will remain a mystery about (All That Is) (God), the true nature of the universe, alien worlds, unseen dimensions and the beings that inhabit them. All religions originate and worship their own gods. You create your gods as your gods create you. I know that is a confusing statement, but consider this; the god of the Muslims is not the same god of the Jews, and the god of the Jews is not the god of the Christians, and so on, and so on. Without doubt, the god of the Africans is black. The god of the Jews is white and the god of American Christians is both. Each culture's conception of their God is in line with their spiritual leanings and beliefs of the times, and as times change, so do the gods change.
The gods change as beliefs change as with the Christians, their god changed over the centuries from an angry, avenging god, ready to take up arms to deliver the Jews out of bondage to a more compassionate god more in line with the coming of the compassionate and forgiving Christ. There is one God (All That Is) and that God has never spoken to anyone directly (Sorry Oral). That's reference to good old Oral Roberts;

Oral Roberts' a Pentecostal Televangelist whose fundraising was quite controversial. In January 1987, during a fundraising drive, Roberts announced to a television audience that unless he raised $8 million by that March, God said he would "call him home." He raised 9.1 million through contributions.
Now his son Richard Roberts is up to daddy's old tricks; Richard Roberts told students at Oral Roberts University that he did not want to resign as president of the scandal-plagued evangelical school, but that he did so because God insisted. Apparently, God talks to Richard too.

Now, I hope most of you are sophisticated enough to recognize a hustle when you see one and I mention these instances here in order to explain why God does not really talk to anyone, and most of you know it. Unfortunately there are still countless others who do not and if you interpret the Bible literally, you are in for great disappointment. The old masters, great Renaissance Artists such as Michelangelo, of unquestionable skills painted God in heroic human form usually descending from heaven with His characteristic scale and lightening bolt, the scale to judge you and lightening bolt to smite you into smithereens if you so much as ever looked at someone of the opposite sex with desire in your coveting little hearts. These symbolic masterpieces served the purposes of the times, but the times have changed and you are no longer children needing those kind of mythological images to understand the true nature of God.
All religions serve a worthwhile purpose, in the beginning of civilizations and societies, but organized religion was never meant to meant to become a lifelong platform for its misconceptions and false teachings, but to evolve through and out of, to rise beyond believing in the stereotypical gods descending from the heavens to do battle with satan and a world full of angels struggling against devils. Of course, many religions, churches and clergy do wonderful works in the name of God and do assist in the needs of societies, but it wasn't supposed to be forever. You were meant to see the flaws, the distortions and false beliefs perpetuated by the churches of today and learn that the only source of the one true God is found within you in the depths of the human psyche, and only you can make that discovery. Let's move on.
God is not human, no matter who you are, where you are, what religion you are and what your holy texts tell you. I do want to make clear one thing up front, we are talking here of God (All That Is) in a human form, talking with lips and mouth uttering intelligible sounds in whatever the language of the listener, engaging him in meaningful messages or conversation. It just doesn't happen, never has, and most of you know it. Religion, even organized religion, if nothing more, at times has provided some valuable insights of the hint of life existing after death.
The only problem is that the kind of “life after death” scenario envisioned by most religions, kneeling at God's feet, chanting “I love You's” for eternity or dissolved into God in some kind of eternal mindless Nirvana is enough to scare a person to death. (smiling) I do not intend to get into a long drawn out article here explaining what God is, but you can read my articles on the God Concept if you are curious. Actually, for this article, it is sufficient for me to explain what God isn't than what He is.
To condense this for you, God is the creating and organizing energy essence presence that was All That Is in the beginning and endures in the present. He, She, It has no specific sexual identification, but is all sexes, all races and in fact, simply as I can put it, “Is All”. God has no human form, but can be found within all human forms, human, animal and plant, all flora and fauna. This God of yours is not a talking God, and indeed, is not conversational in the true sense of the word, yet He speaks through the universe through His creations. God is much more today than He was yesterday, and with each passing micro-second, God increases Himself exponentially.
God is universal comprehension, the source of all known knowledge, but is still capable of growth and expansion with each cosmic breath. God radiates energy and exudes universes complete with probable populations and probable actions happening simultaneously, going where no human has ever gone or ever will go. God cannot ever be conceptualized by the human mind, but it is possible in times of revelation or spontaneous illumination, to emotionally get a feel for some aspects of the overall God reality. I wanted first to explain why anyone who says that they talk to God could very well be telling the truth, and this privilege is available to all, but those who claim that God talks to them, is delusional or dreaming. (Sorry Oral, but by now you have probably learned how silly and misleading your false beliefs were.)
I am sure that by now you have noticed that some so called clergy and self proclaimed prophets, mainly but not exclusively televangelists, have learned how to manipulate their followers, usually by scaring the living B-Jesus out of them with threats of eternal damnation, making them believe that they have an inside track and that God speaks to them personally and that they have a direct line to God. Usually that inside track to God leads to heavenly conversations about God's imminent need for money. (Yours). By the way, there is nothing more despicable than bilking dedicated believers out of their life savings in the name of God, and frankly, I cannot for the life of me see why God needs so much money.
There is however, for lack of a better word, a spiritual hierarchy that exists in the inner universe that connects innumerable layers of Entities, existing in their own reality systems, from the newer personalities, to the more knowledgeable Souls to the most ancient and advanced Entities to “All That Is” Between these more advanced ancient Entities, Souls and identities, knowledge is sifted down from the God of your religious texts to the Earthly personality (You), and through that cosmic grapevine of consciousness, certain contacts can be made and the wisdom and knowledge of All That Is can somewhat be made known to you, but it does not come automatically and it does not come easily, except on certain occasions.
God (All That Is) does not talk, even to the most advanced Entities and they cannot speak to God. You must understand that the Entity, is not in the same place as God, and the word place is misleading since we are not talking about locations in the way you might suppose. But God or the (Prime Source Energy) exists in its own psychological reality which is light years beyond even the most advanced of the Entities or Souls. God's reality and the reality of the most sophisticated Entities is not personality oriented as you know it, and is beyond anything you or I would understand. They are not motivated by even similar desires, emotions, loves or hates as is the human species, so their existence is unutterable and beyond understanding and explanation.
Those Entities of God Herself speaks to no one or no thing, but some semblance of communication can be made between yourself, your Soul/Entity since your soul being very evolved, still is not one of the more advanced Entities of which I have referred to as being godlike. In a sense, your Soul is a beginner Soul and has miles to travel before reaching those exalted heights of those more advanced Entities and All That Is. Spiritual knowledge is passed down through echelons of entities in this Pyramid of consciousness from the lofty to the lowly through what I will call inner knowingness and that knowingness becomes increasingly available to the conscious mind as the personality develops spiritually. (Note; I did not say religiously).
The general rule is; consciousness becomes more aware of that which is not known over a series of lifetimes. This unknown Knowledge IS available directly from the soul, but you must learn to listen for the voices that speak without lips and through your feelings and emotions. The more you learn to TRUST your feelings and emotions and not the words of charlatans, the more Knowledge will come to you. You will be amazed how much you actually know as your inner trust matures.

SOMEONE COULD BE WAITING FOR YOU

I have just read your article on “Soul mates” and found it very interesting. I have been in several shallow relationships in the last few years, but have never experienced  anything that I would call serious and never one that included real love. I am 56 y.o. is it possible that I could still meet my soul mate? Anonymous.

I am glad you liked the article explaining soul mates. It is true that there are other aspects of your “Total You” identity living in the world that you also inhabit. I will try not to elaborate on soul mates too much here since we have talked about that before, but I do want to explain to other readers that in the most basic terms all realities are mental, mental projected into physical actualization for a specific length of time, then returning to the psychological universe after the Earth journey is done.
Your total whole identity consists of others like yourself, all part of you, all living at this time, given life by your soul to experience a variety of experiences in different bodies living in different cultures, in different lands, speaking different languages and of course of different ages, sexes and races. This arrangement affords the soul the most growth potential and a wider range of experience rather than if all of these other portions of you were living in one city, in one state, in one country at one time.
Occasionally, being of the same root stock and sharing similar heritage, some of these “people” will be inexorably drawn together in the same area because of similar interests and attractions. In other words, all things being equal, you will be attracted to your other “Simultaneous Selves-Soul Mates” more-so than other people close to you. There are strong psychological ties that will remain hidden but powerful, and they will draw some of these identities together as comrades in similar interests, clubs, wars, crusades, political parties, religions and such. Any one of your closest friends may indeed be a true soul mate.
If you should meet one of your opposite sex soul mates, the latent qualities that will bind you together could make for an outstanding love relationship. In a way, and I am smiling while typing this, but it would almost be like psychological incest. But since there is no genetic mixing going on here, don't worry, in terms that would delight many evangelical zealots, you will not be sent to the eternal lake of fire.
Now to answer Anonymous question. I gave the previous recap to emphasize what I will say from here on; I am not talking about soul mates in this answer, however they do exist and chances are that you already have met one or more of them.
Before you were born, you made plans for this present life. As I have said before, you chose the general circumstances in which this life would take place before you first cell was even contemplated. You chose your parents and they chose you, your choice being paramount, theirs being more of an acquiescence of convenience. By that I mean that there was an agreement between your future parents and the future you that would be beneficial for both, but your desires to enter into a family structure with them was the driving energy for this new grouping.
At this time, you and they were existing in another “in-between dimension” where the recent dead are living in a different kind of non-physical existence where much preliminary work is being done planning future lives and experiences. At this time, and please understand, I use the word time discriminately here since time does not really exist in the way you experience it in the physical system, but it will have to do for now. So, in this in-between dimension, you also reconnect with family who have passed and people you have known in other lives, who are also in the in-between time of choosing the circumstances for their next life.
You will be once again renewing friendships with past husbands and wives from previous lives, who incidentally, you may be more drawn to than your most recent partner. You could hypothetically speaking, once again meet one who captured your heart in ancient Babylonia, or who enchanted you in Elizabethan England centuries ago. They are no more dead than you are at this time of decision making and I can assure you that you will be amazed that being dead can be so intensely alive and vibrant without a physical body.
This is as I said a time of planning for your future life experience and since you are in this dimension, it means that you have not yet attained sufficient knowledge and experience required to evolve out of the Earth System. So you will reconnect and consort with old friends and old lovers alike, and I do mean old, and quite possibly make decisions to meet in the next imminent lifetime that you both could share, coming together if not in a family context, then in some pre-arranged time and place, possibly to renew an old lingering love that longed to be reenergized and experienced once again in the world of atoms and molecules, sunrises and sunsets.
I have tried to make clear in other articles that like attracts like and old friendships, lovers and compatriots, will follow each other from lifetime to lifetime till the end of time, and since time is an illusion, good relationships are forever. There may be lapses in these relationships involving hundreds of years, or perhaps only months, as each party pursues their own personal interests, but you will follow those you love through the centuries and though you may lose touch with them, you will see them again.
You will see those in your families who you had strong feelings for over and over again. These relationships are never lost. Families will come together lifetime after lifetime, each member taking a different role to compensate for emotional and life experience not gained in the first grouping. The father may choose to join in the new family as the daughter to the son who will be reborn as the new father. Families may be bound together time and time again. On the other hand, there may be those in your family with whom your association did not take, did not ring a bell, who you did not develop any strong bond with, and they will go their own way as will you. There will be others who you have very strong ties with, family or not and indeed you will be bound to some non-family personalities more-so than you now consider close family.
For that reason, you will make future plans at this time to once again reunite with old friends and lovers, whether husbands, wives, kings or concubines, the ties cannot be severed even by the passing of centuries. These reconnections with old loved ones may be postponed until later in life when the pressing issues of youth have somewhat subsided, when the need to struggle for survival in the early years is past and more time is available for the renewed relationship to mature and deepen. That is precisely why so many mature people meet a new companion later in life.
There may indeed be someone who may seem like a new acquaintance that you have met, but will actually be someone from a previous life appearing as agreed upon at the appointed time and place. They will be inexorably drawn to each other though oceans may separate them. Do not discount this attraction that over the centuries that will draw two together, even though they in the true sense of the word, may not be, technically speaking, actual soul mates.
Time and location or country of origin are no barrier in these magical reunions, since these long enduring attractions between two people transcend distance and the normal concept of serial time. If you have recently met someone new and find an unusually strong attraction to them, it may just be that you have ignored the laws of the physical world and found an old acquaintance, an old paramour. Strong emotions, feelings and love can literally reach across the universe, so do not discount what may seem to be an accidental meeting, it could have been arranged hundreds, thousands of years ago.
