Are
you still looking for your soul mate?
Do you believe that you have found your soul mate already?
Maybe you feel the whole soul mate thing is meaningless or over
rated…
A Southern California dentist explained his position
to me this way…
He said, “I’m tired of women who are just looking
for a Sugar Daddy. If that’s all there is out there, I’d
rather be alone.”
This man thinks he’s a victim of
the “gold digging
materialistic women type” living in Southern California.
But in reality, he is just another victim of his own misunderstanding.
What has he missed and misunderstood?
The “nature of love” as defined through the Principles
of one’s own “Infinite Heart”… and an
understanding of “self” as illustrated through the
Principles of the “Soul Mate Myth”.
A myth is not
always something unreal. Joseph Campbell, the ultimate contemporary
mythologist, taught us that myths are representations
of archetypes which reveal our soul’s desires. What I term
the “Soul Mate Myth” is exactly that - a myth that
reveals what every human soul longs for: the perfect soul mate!
A Soul Mate Question
This leads to
a question that is a difficult one for us to ask ourselves:
What makes us think we deserve the perfect mate if we are not
perfect ourselves?
Often when we criticize others, it is the
result of seeing a part of ourselves in them that we don’t
like. The dentist is also a victim of his own materialism. Is
he searching for
his soul mate
in the body of a young Playboy bunny type woman?
The dentist’s
comment reminds me of a story I heard from author and radio talk
show host Dennis Prager. He described an
orthodox Jewish friend who was looking for his soul mate and
just couldn’t find her. Dennis asked him to explain in
detail the ideal woman he was looking for. The friend said, “A
Playboy bunny who studies torah.”
Soul Mates and Relationships
Life
necessitates relationships - either to people or to things. A
romantic relationship is often our most important one. Either
we’re in one… or we’re looking for someone
to get in one with, or would like to get in to one.
We all want
to have great relationships with the people in our lives. But
how many of us can honestly say there is no one with
whom we don’t feel some degree of resentment?
The Soul
Mate Myth and the Infinite Heart
Anyone married, engaged
or in a romantic relationship has a “significant
other.” But how many readers consider their “primary
relationship”, or significant other to be themselves? Yourself..?
The Delphic Oracle may have said two of the wisest words ever
pronounced: Know Thyself. How many people really know themselves?
And how can
or will we ever really know ourselves?
The answer is… by
perceiving ourselves - through the eyes of those we relate to – hence
by viewing ourselves through our relationships. Very few of us
attempt this practice and fewer
yet, succeed at it. I suggest that this is due to unbalanced
ego. Few of us have developed our self worth to the point where
we no
longer become defensive when someone disagrees with us or criticizes
us.
Soul Mate Myth / Personal Transformation
When
we talk about relationships we are normally talking about one
person having a relationship with another person. So how
can you have a relationship with yourself - since you are just
one
person? Who is relating to whom, or to what? Seems confusing
doesn’t
it?
The answer is… that you are really two entities. (No
wonder we’re all a little schizoid). There is the “human”,
physical you and there is the “divine”, metaphysical
you. And one of the most profound accomplishments attainable
in this life - each of our lifetimes - is one’s own ability
to learn to transform “human nature” into “divine
nature”.
A Soul Mate Quote - from Dr. Michael Mason
“
When you find the perfect love, the soul mate within yourself,
which is your Infinite Heart, you will find the perfect love
within all others”.
