Do you believe in love at first sight? What about soulmates? Have you ever felt an instant connection to someone? An inexplicable longing to be near someone you’ve just met? Maybe you thought it didn’t make any sense. Afterall, how could you feel anything for someone you know nothing about?
Sure, a person can be attracted to someone right away. Physical attraction is easy to understand. Many of us have a type or a preference for specific physical features. When we meet others who are aesthetically pleasing to us it’s natural to be attracted to them. We my find many people attractve, but that doesn’t make them our soulmates.
Attraction is an easy sensation to identify. What about those less obvious, but strangely more persistent feelings? Have you ever found yourself struggling to identify and understand the subtle yet intense internal reaction suddenly felt upon meeting someone for the first time? Maybe it felt like a mix of nostalgia, comfort, longing, and a whole host of other sensations you couldn’t quite identify.
What are Soulmates?
Sometimes we meet a person and it feels like we’re being reunited with a loved one we’ve been separated from for years. It may even feel overwhelming enough to cause us to have to choke back tears. A lot of times this feeling is regarded as this new person simply reminds us of someone we’ve lost. Could these intense feelings instead be indicators of soulmates finally meeting in this life?
In Eastern cultures it is believed by many that a red thread of fate connects individuals to their soulmate. Many cultures also believe that you can have several different types of soulmates. So, let’s explore both of these concepts through terms the skeptics can understand and get behind.
Perhaps there are many unseen threads connecting souls to one another transcending the human concepts of time, distance, and reality. Much like molecules in the theory of quantum entanglement, is it possible for souls to sense one another in every life, dimension, and reality? It is believed by many that when souls reincarnate, they find each other again in the next life.
Some say that when these reincarnated souls find each other again they may not have the same relationship in this life as they did in their past lives. For example, two beings that were lovers in a previous life may be reborn as siblings in the next. So how are these souls seemingly so strongly bound to one another?
Soulmates in Simpler Terms
Well, I did make quite an argument in my book, The Lost Chapters of Humanity On Earth, for what exactly a “soul” might be, along with many other metaphysical considerations. However, for the sake of simplicity here let’s just consider the possibility that the soul is like the metaphysical universe equivalent to the physical universe phonons and photons.
Just like phonons and photons can be quantum entangled even though they lack mass and are not made of matter, perhaps souls can also be quantum entangled. Presumably such souls might have a shared origin and were quantum entangled when they came into being. Such souls might be able to sense one another and potentially even seek each other out.
Or perhaps souls become bound to each other with frequent and/or prolonged exposure to one another. In which case, it may be that the greater the exposure, the stronger the bond. Could a strong enough bond persist through death? If so, do such souls recognize one another in the next life?
Soulmates in Each Life
What if those souls don’t meet again in the next life? Could their bond weaken over time? If two souls formed a strong bond over one lifetime, how many lifetimes might it take for that bond to wither? Would souls still recognize each other after four or five reincarnations?
Another possible connection between souls might be genetics. There is a phenomenon known as genetic attraction. Somehow, we seem to instinctually recognize relatives we’ve never met and feel a desire to be close to them. With DNA testing some people have found they accidentally married a parent, sibling, or cousin they didn’t know existed. Does DNA have some correlation with the soul?
It is my personal belief that all of these things, along with several other factors, have some sort of influence on our souls and their relationships with other souls. I doubt we will ever truly crack the mystery of the soul, certainly not in any tangible or quantifiable understanding. Therefore, I personally resolve to ‘trust my instincts’. By which I mean to accept what I feel without the need to classify and label every relationship or interaction with the other souls I encounter in this life.
