A Question from M.J.
A Question from M.J. …I read an explanation in a book that humans aren’t supposed to wind up with our soul mates in any given lifetime – that we do meet them and they often have a deep purpose, but it’s not in the plan for soul mates to be together in life. It is said that it’s actually not beneficial to be with one’s soul mate in some situations. I can’t find the book I read that discusses this, and I want to find the exact explanation – does anyone know what it is?

The Reincarnationist Back Story
The Reincarnationist Back Story M. J. Rose introduces us to the back story of her book The Reincarnationist in a guest post for . I thought we ought to re-post it here on our own blog… It’s fun to think of cross-posting as a sort of “reincarnation” for words (see the last paragraph of M.J.’s post below for more on that idea) – The Venerable Thich Nguyen Tang said: “To Buddhism, however, death is not the end of life, it is merely the end of the body we inhabit in this life, but our spirit will still remain and seek out through the need of attachment, attachment to a new…
