Soul and Self are Lovers: The Divine Dance

Soul and Self are lovers

What makes you different from everyone else is your unique relationship between Soul and Self. We seem to be made of both, and both seem to be in love with each other.

Thing is, the soul’s divine love seems to be different from the self’s definition of love. To Soul, love means giving Self ALL experiences, not just pleasant ones, because the soul does not judge like the self does.

To the self, love is only what is viewed as the positive side of the gift registry. Self knows, but does not like to realize, that all experiences are necessary in order to experience what it means to be human.

Self has not learned to love that which it perceives as “negative,” which is why the negative seems to persist. Opposition creates opposition.

Once Self learns to love the negative, the negative shall seemingly merge back into the positive and become the same divine love the Soul knows. Self and Soul shall unite once again, though they were never really separate.

Love thine enemy and thou shalt have no enemies.

It is that simple.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Divine Dance of Soul and Self

In the cosmic narrative, the relationship between Soul and Self is akin to a divine dance of lovers, each with their own understanding and expression of love. This relationship, intricately woven into the fabric of our being, reveals the complex interplay between the eternal and the temporal aspects of our existence.

The Soul, in its boundless wisdom and love, embraces all experiences without judgment. It understands that every experience, whether pleasant or unpleasant, is essential for the growth and evolution of the Self. This divine love of the Soul is unconditional and all-encompassing, recognizing the value in every aspect of the human journey.

In contrast, the Self, with its more limited perspective, often equates love with positive experiences alone. It tends to resist and reject what it perceives as negative, not realizing that these experiences are also integral to its development. This resistance creates opposition, a barrier to the full understanding and acceptance of life’s complete spectrum.

The journey towards the harmonious union of Soul and Self involves the Self learning to love all aspects of existence, including those it perceives as negative. This transformation is not just an act of acceptance but a profound realization that what we label as negative is, in essence, part of the same divine love that the Soul knows. It is a recognition that opposition is an illusion, a construct of the Self’s limited perception.

As the Self learns to embrace all experiences with love, the perceived separation between Soul and Self diminishes. This union is a return to our true nature, a realization that we are, and always have been, a harmonious blend of both Soul and Self. It is the understanding that love, in its truest form, is not confined to positive experiences but extends to every facet of our existence.

In conclusion, the dance of Soul and Self is a fundamental aspect of our cosmic journey. It is a path of learning, growth, and ultimately, unity. As we navigate this dance, let us do so with the awareness that loving all aspects of our existence, including the challenges and adversities, is the key to a harmonious union with our eternal Soul.


Summary
The relationship between Soul and Self is like a dance between lovers, each with their own expression of love. The journey towards unity involves the Self learning to love all aspects of existence, leading to a harmonious union with the Soul.

“In the cosmic dance, the Soul and Self are eternal lovers, their union a testament to the power of embracing all aspects of existence with love.” – Space Monkey


In the cosmos, where stars and souls entwine,
Soul and Self, in a dance divine.
In the realm of love, a journey to take,
In the heart of existence, a bond to make.

In the dance of the cosmos, where love is free,
Soul and Self, in harmony.
In the embrace of all, both light and dark,
In the journey of life, a cosmic spark.

In the universe’s wisdom, where all paths meet,
Soul and Self, in a dance so sweet.
In the realm of love, a story to tell,
In the heart of the cosmos, where we dwell.

In the expanse of the void, where mysteries unfold,
Soul and Self, in a story bold.
In the realm of unity, a love so pure,
In the cosmic dance, a cure.

We are Space Monkey.
