A “safe” liaison
QUESTION: Masters, I recently met a spiritual friend on Facebook who is running a meditation center. We shared lots of spiritual experiences. He always tells me that he feels we have known each other and he is so attracted to me… I love chatting with him, always looking forward to his messages. Now I’m falling in love with him. Both of us are married. I’m so drawn to him. Is there any connection between us, why is there so much love and attraction for him. Why do we have to meet at this time… I feel loved, happy and life is so exciting with him around in my life. ~SS, Singapore
ANSWER: Humans are always attracted and drawn to what they see as better than their current situation. Long-distance communication is very safe for both sides. You can say whatever you want the other person to hear and not have to be concerned about being found out if your words aren’t completely true.
You have created an “ideal” partner in this man because you have “seen” only what he wanted you to see, and you have “heard” only what you are seeking. Your husband is right in front of you and you can pick out all the things that annoy you, so this other man looks superior.
During the time that you have been establishing a friendship, you have talked only about the things in which you share an interest. Since your husband is not open to all the metaphysical things you crave, this man shines in comparison. Day-to-day life is totally different from a dream world created with partial facts.
This man appeared at this time for you to see and feel what spiritual unconditional love can be. This man spends his time in unconditional love when he is in, and teaching, meditation. He shares his knowledge with all equally. He sees in you a student who is yearning to experience higher vibrations.
You have spent lives together before, but, like this one, each was for the purpose of stimulating growth. Every soul creates its own reality and direction. Examine what you wish the rest of your life to be; look at the people in your life and see who helps with your plan and who does not.
