Soulmates...
Posted: 11/13/2008 11:55:02 PM
I believe in soul mates. I also believe that we have more than one, and it could be anyone...

Sometimes two people just click, even with just a look, and are friends forever. No matter what happens, they somehow just understand one another, and would do anything for the other person. I know this because my best friend and I have known each other for years; have gone through the worst of the worst, and it has only brought us closer. We learn and we grow from one another.

I believe the same for the romantic side of the spectrum. I believe that two people can look at one another, and somehow know that they are meant to be together. I think it is rare, but I believe it to be true. Those two people, no matter what happens, will stick together. It is something you feel within your heart, and you can't let go of that feeling. Once it's there, you're stuck with it whether you want it or not. Even if you lose that person, under good or bad circumstances, you take that piece of heart with you. You also never truly lose that person, because they are always within your heart.

That does not mean you will never find another friend, or true love again; or that you can't move on. This only means that you now know what it feels like to have that special connection, and you have the knowledge to see it and find it again. As far as friends or true love goes, you shouldn't settle for less than what you know. You can have friends, acquaintances, lovers, or whatever. But you will know when you meet someone special. You will know this because you will feel it in your heart; your heart does not lie.....

If one believes that a soulmate could even be a family member then it could be said that there are different kinds of soulmates. Example, though I am highly easy to get on with I am far from easy for sensitive people. Now look at the three children I have, my first two very strong souls (beings), yet my third,... my baby is a sensitive strong soul and she knows how to work me. Soulmates huh.

As far as the champion soulmate, sure I absolutely believe it, but this is a big world isn't it. My soulmate may be in Egypt or he could have already past on (died at an early age) or for pete sakes not even born yet. I seriously doubt my soulmate is even in the same state or country for that matter as myself.

But with that being said kind of like the movie "Lady in the Water" certain souls could attract one another, have a tendency to naviagte towards one another. Sadly though they way people are now, narrow sighted, rat race, selfish one could think that their soulmate could bump right into them and the only thing that happens is they annoy one another and press on.

Soulmates is just a phenomenon to me, a "what if", a day dream or fancy I'd like to take shock in just because it's a beautiful notion.

So many have said 'not just one' already, but let me clarify my beliefs further:

A soulmate is anyone you can connect with in that fashion. Hopefuly there are many. If you hit the right plane of heaven-on-earth telepathic-saints agape, everyone is your soulmate.

Back in ego land though, if you are multifaceted person, you may have many types of soulmates. For instance one might share your particular brand of humor as if you were of one mind, another might be right on your frequency when you're inventing software, and a third might share a desire for your bodies to melt into each other.

Long ago I wanted all my relationship needs rolled up into one person. Now I see how absurd and unadventurous an expectation that was. Now I'd like for everyone I meet to become a new flavor of soulmate, and keep them all.

I'd have to have a soul first, I think I got drunk in the past and sold it to the Devil for a pack of Marlboros

However, I believe there is such a thing as 'true love' or a 'one love' and all that soul mates stuff

I really do

Love is the one of the most powerful frequences of energy on this planet

Maybe we have soulmates, maybe we don't. If we do, I think that most of us are not fortunate enough to actually find them. We stumble through life trying to make it through our every day existences; getting the bills paid, taking care of essential needs (food, water) and just living.

Here is my question to the rest of you regarding this forum; if there are soulmates for each of us, how in the world do we know when we've found them? I truly care about my SO, I even love him dearly. We share the same values on many planes and we get along famously but is he my soulmate? I haven't a clue.

I'd give you refund, but I'm sure you've at least slobbered over them all by now.

'True love' and 'one love' may equate to the same thing, even if there were equivalents out there, because if you have that 'true love' you have no need to find if it was the only one.

I've seen absolute love produce some radical transformations of reality. Besdes that heaven-on-earth trip I did for a couple weeks, I once had this guy following me in a dark alley with insults. In the light of the liquor store, I looked lovingly into his eyes, and he dropped to his knees in tears saying 'bless you'.

Having been there, I try to model my socio-political schemes around what I know we are capable of. I'm still founded in my old eros romantacism, but the fact of it is that when your diamond heart gushes open like a waterfall, and grace pours down on you, star-light with wafts of the apple orchard, volleyball, mediating a feud, or scrubbing a broiler pan, are all as fully satisfying as melting into a true love.

Creation being mostly fractal relativity for the ego though, I'll settle aiming for 'true love' anyhow.

Love can melt down to the molecular level (hey, I've even reversed magnetic north in my living room (Yeah, I'm the real Hermione)). Nothing else comes close.

Well, first of all....I'd up the ambilify just a tad dude, cause I'm a little dizzy now following your question. but anyway...

A real love....a lifetime LOVE....love being the operative word
It is a special thing ...that many dream about...it may exist...some believe it can
are you a dreamer? I only do dream of this special love.

you are describing relationship , when you discuss your parents....my parents have been married for 60 years..as of aug. this year, I am not sure they have been to the summit of Love...and, I love them dearly, but wouldn't want to 'stick it out' in the manner they have...but you know, it' works for them., and they are seemingly content. It's been good for them, but wouldn't hit the mark for me........

A soulmate can be anyone...anyone at all that touches you in a special place in your heart...and that 'connection ' is magical..yes, it can be your friend , your lover..., your sister, your brother....soul..has no sexual connotation in this context.......

that is...'IF'...you even believe in the existence of a soulmate.

ok, tell you what....let's both up the Ambilify , K' bro????

peace

llfg: If you love him dearly, you probably shouldn't be asking yourself that. 'Soulmates' may for many just be some quickly evaporated magical thinking label, more in the realm of 'falling in love' than actual love. I venture to say that, if you have to ask, you're not soulmates. It's a matter of definition of course. Who's to say we're psychically of one mind and melt into someone just because they're our soulmate. Maybe a soulmate is just the person who's right for us at the time, in ways we may not even recognize.

There are two main definitions of soulmate, our 'one and only true love', and a perfect match for a deep soul level connection. I don't think the universe would be so crummy as to give each of us one and only one perfect match which we may or may not ever meet. ..So that leaves a deep connection at a soul level. If you can't see things happening at a soul level, then you'd never know, and it probably wouldn't matter.

The depth of love you can experience comes down to you, and no one else. If you want to work on something that changes your life, that's where to start.

You have to work with the tools and experiences you have until something new comes along. Your reality is that you love your SO deeply. Soulmates are an irrelevant fantasy.

I have met some of my very close soulmates. It always begins with sensing a frequency (energy) around my solar plexus and heart. They had different personalities, looks and lifestyles, but similar soulprints. It's like meeting a member of your true family. When I had a period of high energy love within myself, I ran into two of them back-to-back. Although neither became romantic relationships, there was something there. It goes beyond words.

I believe that we have soul families that are like ripples. Some are very close and some are further away, but we are all soul mates in one way or another. In my case my closest soul mates have always been males (who are attractive) but not any family members. I don't know if that exists, but it may just be because I haven't personally experienced it. I also believe that when we have reached a certain level of evolution and are ready, there is a twin soul - your true other half - expressed in the opposite gender energy on 3-d. This person is your true compliment and, unlike soulmates, have no "deal-breakers" with regard to their outlook and habits. They may be in situational deal-breakers, like in a marriage, however. These people don't have negative karma from past lives that the both of you have to work out. A lot of times, soul mates have "stuff" you have to work out together.

The twin comes when both are karmically ready and on their last incarnation here, because it is a heavenly thing, not an earthly thing. It's a return to Source and a gift that both need to recognize because the energy that emanates from such a coupling is perfect Love. That kind of Love uplifts the whole earth grid and puts the Isis/Osiris, Adam/Eve, Jesus/Mary archetypal male/female god/goddess energy pattern in place for Universal healing, not just individual. So both people have to be fully self-realized for this to take place as it carries responsibilities back to the Source. It is divine, pure love.

ww: What would be the point of creation in the first place if we were headed toward a final incarnation. The way I figure, in a billion years I'll be a conscious nebula, spending a million years just to yawn, then do phrazillions of universes after that with their own equivalents of time, space, matter, senses, emotion, & thought. A final curtain into some joyous ball of light gets boring, hence the ring of angels and kaleidoscopic-eyes dance of siva in the first place.

There are other densities to pass through before we merge back into complete Oneness (although it's always a choice - free will is Universal.) The next level would be conscious creators, godmen/women who are still separate, but less dense, having the capability to teleport, manifest at will, telepathically relate to one another and other abilities. The ascended masters who have transcended the dense 3-d plane are of that kind. The next level of evolution for mankind will be this plane and it will be the evolutionary step for the whole of Earth and all the inhabitants that are ready, according to ancient prophecies.

I've kind of been there, 4-5th level by your AAB style reckoning, precipitating from the higher tattvas, conjuring rain seasons for intercontinental droughts, watching city activity transform to my utterances, digging into the akashic records to see the birth of distant planets, the building of the pyramids, the resurrection of Christ, a post nanotechnology earth, been to siddhaloka, gurumoortram, done the bodhisattva things, inhabit minds and download new personae, met a handful of famous deities, some on a regular basis, rewritten some history, and had a hand in some mistakes which have changed the whole world in recent years.

I hate to burst your bubble, but escalating the cosmic scope of involvement is not substantially different in flavor than mortal influence and perception. All intrigues of any level ego normalize. The angels are no less deluded about their free will and effect in these matters than mortals. It's just another advanced tier of experience intrigue for the delightfully jaded ego performed by and for the one. Any of us can have that co-creator 'experience'. Perhaps we can all escalate to that level, but without actual central orchestration, it would be no less anarchist madness than what we perceive to be happening at the mortal level now.

Of course my knowledge and optional power is still but a drop in the ocean.
I'm sure you've tasted some of those meta-faculties you've mentioned. Here's an exercise for you though, find the source of your will, tha which makes your co-creator decisions, something a bit more tangible and descript than just some notion of the tao steering the creation of new universes.

It's all for Source experiencing Itself. There will always be novel explorations for the pure ecstasy of experience. This is apart from ego (the small "I" rather than the "I AM".) I haven't traversed the realms you have but I can relate to how you've been to all the heavens and sat with all the gods and found them wanting. I can only say that I've finally stopped trying to figure out the mystery, rather have been developing a relationship with it. I won't reduce this down to one thing or another, for it can all be minimized or maximized depending upon the audience. I have been asked to return and made the decision to remain. I consciously wish to step into the next level along with others into the lighter densities and next dimension of awareness, for no other reason than to experience it.

Namaste and much joy and light to your path.

Soulmates, maybe it works that way for some , but we're all on different paths.

I think odds are there are a certain amount of people out there that you are extremely compatible with but you have to be lucky to be in the right place at the right time. Or is that fate, karma , destiny ?

ww: I didn't say I found them wanting. They do what they do, and it's great fun (usually, some of them are rather scary, much like the manifestations of life).
{ps, sorry about the attitude}
I've been out of body with some ego, the typical fashion, but I've also gone out of body with just my consciousnes, watching my ego mechanically conversing on a spiritually metaphorical tier of mortal dialogue, and came to realize that at that point that the answers which the mind seeks are beyond the realm of the mind. So yeah, experience, but no hope of figuring it out. These are great experiences to be sure, but committing to coming down from them can be depressing.
I was once planning on being the mayor of Jerome, really dug the white-witch mists, highway vortex, cocopelli moon, and visions of platinum seaweed cacti seas out there. I'm still planning to visit again when I finish building my tandem solar-steam hydrogen paraglider bicycle, so maybe I can drop in see if we're soulmates.

Well, as I always say: Today's soulmate is tomorrow's shithead.

.... and of course, Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and Peter Pan are all residents of the same imaginary realm as soulmates.

I believe in soul mates. At a really difficult time, I had my palm read and the seer told me that I had two soul mates. That one was mine but I was not his. That the other, I was his and he would take care of me. I thought this an interesting concept. I think when people say the term soul mate, they are talking about one mate forever that you must find. I have found that person more than once and I have found more than one person throughout my life what was a soul mate for me.

I believe not only that soul mates exist, but that you can have more than one soul mate.
I believe that someone can be your soulmate, but they might not reciprocate i.e. you might not be their soulmate -even if they want it.
I believe if you find a soulmate, either way, you should appreciate that for what it is and let go if you need to. Just know that you found it and may find it again.

Now here's where the heavens open and the sun shines through and you hear the angels go alalalalalalalalalla with a treble in their voice and we are all zapped into eternity with the soul mates of our choosing. Sorry, had to lighten the moment. This is too hard.

I never believed in soulmates, until I met him. I was in my forties. We just clicked and things moved pretty fast. We were so attuned to each other and we made each other happier than the peverbial "pigs in shit" no kidding. We had 10 wonderful years together before he died. That was 3 1/2 years ago. I miss him every day, but life does go on. I have managed to go on, and have a happy life by myself. Will there ever be another soulmate? I don't know. But, I was fortunate enough to have one. I don't think I will ever have another love like that.

Soulmates is really irrelevant. If there is such a thing then great, but you will never know until you die. But one must assume there is an afterlife. And that the after life operates on reincarnation. And that souls are linked together through reincarnation. Then again you could believe in transdentalism and that we are all one giant soul, then all of us are soulmates. And on and on ...

But again all of this really irrelavant. What is relevant is the intense emotion of love that makes you believe what ever you want to believe and simply being in the present and cherishing the felling and your partner ... fate, soulmates, the one, destiny, kindredspirits ... thus what you are really asking if you believe in love ... yes I do ... but not soulmates or that other crap.

Well let me just say that I do have that burning/aching feeling around the heart whenever I see him and there are times, both intimate and non-intimate that we have this connection where we just fit together. There seems to be an understanding between us without any words being spoken.

Does that make us soulmates? I guess it's possible. For the most part I think we're all just balls of energy hurtling through space and time. Sometimes we bump into other balls of energy and something greater is created from that event. I think many of us are in love with the idea of being in love and we tend to choose the wrong individual for that reason. Maybe I'm just being overly cautious here but I want to make sure that white hot feeling I have when I see him is energy that can be transferred into something long lasting.
