Your own essence holds an intelligence within itself. The more you connect with this essence, the more able you are at choosing the right people to engage with.

[@amandaschmitz2003]

Thank you very much, Eckhart! I want to tell my experience, because it can be helpful for someone: Seven months ago, I started a relashionship with a very good and kind man. I only felt for him the transcendent love that I feel for every human, nothing more. I though that I should ignore the fact that I did not have physical attraction and the "in love feeling", because I wanted to be racional and choose a good man. Unfortunally, it was a big mistake. Now, I realize that I'm only with him because I wanted to be part of a kind and sucessful relashionship, so, it was a egoic choice. The lesson I learned from my actions is that it's okay to consider my body sensations when I choose someone, I'm not "less enlightened" when I do this. I'm just human.

From my experience with my partner I would say there can be pain or ups n downs but that’s not suffering. It’s a different thing , it’s very short term. I see Suffering as more long term and confusion etc I feel at peace most of time and the hard times feel difficult in the moment but in the back of my mind I always know it will pass pretty quickly and we will only be stronger afterwards

[@James-sh2zd]

Basically everyone has a different capacity for giving/recieving love that's built into their form. Think of it like a light bulb: 50 watt vs. 100 watt. The unconditional love is the electrical current which we all have in common. The person that you should get into a relationship with, ideally, is someone who shares the same wattage as you, so that you will maintain compatibility while reaching your highest potential. Too often a 70 watt person who's only operating at half of their potential, gets with a 40 watt person operating at their full potential. At first, the 70 watt person will appreciate that person's energy, but as they start to reach their potential, they will outgrow that connection pretty quickly.

[@exscapegoatpowerfulhealer9685]

While married to a narcissist, I experienced enlightened awareness. Soon afterwards I felt I needed to leave the marriage & be on my own. Unfortunately for myself I stayed & the utopian peaceful experience lasted only several months. It's something I'll never forget. The details of the experience such as perfect alignment with synchronistic events that occurred very often daily. How quickly each day passed. How each person I was in conversation with, was at ease with me, & i could feel the relaxed air between us which was natural & beautiful, some of them I'd known for years. How information from within would be there instantly as I needed it & this is the supreme intelligence within us all that we're born with & how I naturally saw everyone as my equal & the love for everyone is a peaceful love. Pure acceptance & It's not that I needed to say anything to anyone about it, My energy was non threatening & peaceful & that is real Love. If someone had asked me that question that eckhart tried to answer. I would say that it comes naturally because when we're living by our true nature, everything is natural.

[@findelka1810]

It’s never too late to leave. I’ve done it against all odds (children, financial entanglements and dependence, court threats and the most nasty things one can imagine); finally I breathe freely and it feels like having been reborn. I have a lot of time left to spend on meaningful things now that the relationship doesn’t drain all my life force. Hope you can leave and get back your life! Wishing you courage!

[@engelbertus1406]

To me the concept of spirits, souls and (re)incarnations have become at first tricky to coincide with observing truth and as such obsolete. Despite being a very reassuring and tempting romantic approach to the reality of our existence, these concepts can also delude the tools we are given to observe the present moment and reality as such. First off, they require an amount of assumptions and therefor conditioning of the mind - which in any case limits the potential of freedom to observe reality with. The concept of a soul or spirit becomes dual because it needs a context a separation to derive it’s truth from. Also, the belief to have a separate soul requires a concept of ownership which is a concept that proliferates within a liberal individuated sense of being rather that an unified unlimited shared state of being. It basically triggers the mind to project separate entities onto a reality, as it would do when referring to ego. Yet another identity and therefor a limitation of how consciousness through love and energy freely can express itself in the present moment. The only relevant choice is one that can be trained and cultivated, it is the choice to learn to recognize the awakened perception of reality in the present moment - enlightenment becoming a dominant starting point, again and again. As this state, through training, becomes dominant over conditioning, patterns, willpower, identities etc. consciousness finds an access point to express itself free into reality. And local reality as such will change to the degree of outcome for the human living in this local reality. Life paths, though subtle, will expose more synchronicities, resonating moments, creatures, events etc. and more intricate connections will show up. A romantic connection can be such a result, and the only choice that underlies it, is the choice of two beings to recognize awakening inside and outside of themselves. All of this magic can work, and in my experience, works more freely and effectively by surpassing any assumptions of separation of reality. Nothing will be lost, only gained.

[@findelka1810]

To my understanding romantic love is never unconditional, it might be a tool for emotional growth and a speed ticket to enlightenment (especially the difficult ones), but it’s no wonder that authentic spiritual leaders and monks are celibate. They experience oneness, and if you experience that, you don’t need another to make you complete. There is nothing wrong with relationships, if you’re into that. But because of the conditional nature of it it will always leave you ultimately unsatisfied and that generates suffering. Also almost always egos are operating the relationship. That takes away a lot of energy and a lot of time. You can ‘practice’ on every being (just like he mentioned parents), that’s also a good way to grow. I have yet to see a selfless, loving relationship without the involvement of egos and expectations. When it happens, must be really beautiful. But even that doesn’t last forever and attachment also causes suffering. So, to my view relationships are not designed to make us happy and fulfilled, but more to speed up our way to enlightenment, if we only listen to what it wants to teach us.

[@sinyuariellee8048]

so wise, I just broke up recently with a man whom I felt an instant bond with at the beginning. He was also very into me and we both thought we could have a very aligned relationship in all aspects. It was strong mutual attraction but because of various practical issues we faced and doubts we both had due to clashing of our egos, he lost his passion and broke up with me. I was super disappointed as I thought we could figure it out together with time but he decided to give up. This pushed me back onto my spiritual journey, I started practising Zen and I am now going through an ego death. Sometimes when I am really Zen, I also wonder why I should date anyone as I feel so fulfilled inside already. I wonder how I can fall in love with one specific person, as I know all the personalities, looks, talents etc are just forms, it can fade away and change with time. I wonder how I can choose a partner without ego involved as everyone's essence is a piece from the Source energy, we are all equal. Of course there's also a twin flames belief, which can explain this kind of soulful love/divine partnership, but I am not sure if twin flames are really true.

@disciple 111 how can I have this experience? Been waiting for such a long time a partner shows up. I have a pattern of toxic relationships and heart break, anxiety, panic attacks, low self esteem. Men took advantage of me. How to turn this around and let miracles and a good man enter my life?

[@MindMoulder]

@@jillmariaplatteaux6083 It is not my intent to ruffle your feathers , but it seems like you are mainly blaming others for your troubles. Men took advantage of you, but you never did the same? (maybe not the same man). I am not trying to say its your fault either. Its just easier to look at others and see their flaws. What i think you are doing is obsessing to be with someone, and that desperate energy leaks out quite much, i am sure you have felt it in other men approaching you. The reasons could vary but most of the time its because most are not at ease with themselves, they cant be still too long because the reflection they see is not something most want to see wether its a Woman or a Man.

[@jillmariaplatteaux6083]

@@MindMoulder yes I do blaim others starting with my care takers. They distroyed half of my life. I have a pattern of toxic relationships. I was attracted to workaholics, alcoholics, emotional unavailable and broken men. I allways wanted to fix them. I loved them with all my heart as I loved my parents and their behaviour distroyed me. I sank into depression and isolation and attracted each time the same type of men till I said to myself. Now it is ENOUGH! I AM ENOUGH! I deserve better. I started working on myself and one thing I recognised: it is not me who is the problem, it is my environment! Toxic work places, dominant bosses, apathic friends, people taken advantage of me. I am single for over a decade and I am totally not desperate or looking. You do not know me nor my battles and my strenght to do everything on my own. My whole battle and 3 knee operations made me stronger and I will never ever let anyone distroy me again!! For once and after 42 years I can say: I am proud for the person who I became and I love me!

My test would be my older, narcissistic (clinically diagnosed), violent sister. She was 7 years older than me and beat me up a lot. She was 20 the last time she pounded me. She died 14 years ago and I still miss her. She crossed into the Light and is being taken care of by our mother. I would love to have 2 more weeks with her here on earth.

We are not perfect, well im not, but when love is perfected in us, then we are enlightened, but i love someone who shows their vunabilty, sorry cant spell, as to be open enough to show each other our weakneses, is endearing, and proves that we have empathy for each other and others in turn, surely to love somebody who is selfless, not perfect, but is so loving takes us for who we are, not pretentious in any way. Open with each other. Thats the kind of person i would seek. With love jdx 🙏🙏🙏💕

[@moniquenewton4932]

Eckhart, can you please elaborate on what a transcendent dimension in a relationship looks like?

[@edamusis]

QUESTION: If let’s say we all love each other unconditionally, how can I decide to which to be my partner? Is this based on physical attraction? Isn’t this a contradiction with this higher state of consciousness? ANSWER: Ok, so if you love everybody unconditionally how can you possibly decide who is going to be your partner? That’s the question. Because it seems and there’s no preference anymore. Or if it’s physical attraction - isn’t there a contradiction, if you’re in a higher state of consciousness where you shouldn’t or not be physically attracted to anybody is that the implication there questioned? Well, the love we are talking about, the unconditional love towards human beings and life forms is a… See, what is it that you love in the other when you love unconditionally? You don’t love their physical form, you don’t love their psychological form, their personality. Their unconditional love goes deeper. It’s a transcendent love, that what you love is not the form, but the formless essence of the other. And you can only love that when you can sense within yourself that dimension of formless when you can be still and present enough and then look at another human being. Then you can recognize something. What you recognize is for lack of a better word the consciousness which is the essence of the other human as it is the essence of who you are - consciousness prior to the consciousness being born into some kind of form, personality which is there in the physical form, which is there. But in every being, there is still the dimension of consciousness that is prior to form. Although the human being has become form, consciousness assumed form has incarnated, so to speak, but that doesn’t mean that the formless and timeless consciousness is lost. It’s still there as the essence. And when you can sense it in yourself, you can sense it, because you are still in presence enough. From that dimension in yourself, you can sense it in the other and that is LOVE. It’s basically a recognition that in essence the other is the same as you. But then of course there is always that is the transcendent dimension to every human being. In addition to that transcendent dimension, there is a form-identity of every human being. Every human being has a physical form and emotional form and a mental form that’s a personality. So the physical appearance and a personality consisting of mental and emotional conditioning and so on. So, there are the two levels. The unconditional love towards all humans is the transcendent love. The love (the formless, [the recognized of formless]) as yourself and the other. But then you’re still here as a form too. And the form may respond to another form - the physical, that can be physical attraction. It is not incompatible with the transcendent realization although some ancient or not so ancient traditions may tell you that. It is not incompatible you can have physical attraction on the level of form. You can also have an attraction towards the mental-emotional form of that other human being because it resonates with something in your own form. So that means you may be drowned to the other human being physically or mentally, emotionally, because you resonate with that. And then perhaps you enter into a relationship. So there different levels operate - the transcendent remains. It can become obscure through excessive attachment of course to the mental-emotional dimension in the other. So in a relationship, the realization of essence identity (as I sometimes call it) can become obscured when form identity takes over completely, which could happen through the pain body. Which could happen through emotional (getting identified with arising emotions and losing touch with the transcendent). Yes, that can happen, but it’s not incompatible. Everybody’s challenge is to balance the two in their lives in their relationships to relate to the other on the transcendent level and at the same time if it is there on an emotional-mental-physical level. Without the transcendent dimension in the relationship, it’s not ultimately satisfying and it cannot really truly work for long if the transcendent is missing completely in the relationship. Its physical attraction and attraction between personalities is not enough to keep it going. Can be going for a while, but then it becomes frustrating and you see more and more of the limitations of the other person. And the other person sees more and more of your limitations. Which are always there and when you live together it becomes very obvious that the other person has his or her limitations. Now as long as the realization of the transcendent dimension is there and that fine, there’s also limitations can be exist within the space of the transcendent. They’re not destructive of the relationship. Now you may find it’s sometimes easier to have this unconditional love towards people that you don’t know so well than people easier than towards people that with whom you shell a lot of past. Because there the past the form identity of that person can be very powerfully there in your mind in your interaction. So that’s the challenge of being present with family members: parents, grownup children, and so on. And of course, as you know Ram Dass recommends if you think you’re enlightened as a test he recommends that you spend two weeks with your parents and that will tell you whether you’re really enlightened or not - going spend two weeks staying with your parents for two weeks. In most cases that is a good test, unless your parents are enlightened in which case there’s not much point in using it doesn’t tell you anything.

[@edamusis]

IT SHOULD BE ENGRAVED INTO THE STONE: What is it that you love in the other when you love unconditionally? You don’t love their physical form, you don’t love their psychological form, their personality. Their unconditional love goes deeper. It’s a transcendent love, that what you love is not the form, but the formless essence of the other. And you can only love that when you can sense within yourself that dimension of formless when you can be still and present enough and then look at another human being. Then you can recognize something. What you recognize is for lack of a better word the consciousness which is the essence of the other human as it is the essence of who you are - consciousness prior to the consciousness being born into some kind of form, personality which is there in the physical form, which is there. But in every being, there is still the dimension of consciousness that is prior to form. Although the human being has become form, consciousness assumed form has incarnated, so to speak, but that doesn’t mean that the formless and timeless consciousness is lost. It’s still there as the essence. And when you can sense it in yourself, you can sense it, because you are still in presence enough. From that dimension in yourself, you can sense it in the other and that is LOVE. It’s basically a recognition that in essence the other is the same as you.

Every time I hear one of my associates/friends say, “I love you” when they’re on the phone or otherwise, I always ask them if they’ve ever told that person why/how that is true. The response is usually the same…they draw a blank. Or….he/she already knows….It’s implied. Well…no it’s not. Try it sometime and watch the response from your significant other or whomever.

Without the unconscious choosing, we can choose more consciously and find compatibility. Our conscience wants to do good things for the world, and our conscience knows who can help us to achieve that.

The love of my life was chosen for me by something much Greater than any human source. We will be in covenant for 25 years this month after both of us were married to the wrong people twice.

[@silentfriend369]

The main driving force is unconditional love, but because we ARE in these specific vessels with this specific mind, we will feel attachment and attraction to those that we love unconditionally. Correct? Balance is the key to a healthy, lasting partnership with another transcended being. Both being aware of their "essence" (as you put it - enlightened), is necessary for there to be a true experience of unconditional love. . . right? Anyways, bless you. And thank you for what you do. I'm still on a journey to finding balance. But I know I will get to where I need to be. It is a matter of time.

[@juststop022]

You're searching for something you already have. That's the paradox

[@JonasAnandaKristiansson]

We are not in these vessels, and the specific minds. They are with/in/appearances in us. Huge difference, regarding one's identification.

[@kensurrency2564]

@Criszar19 Pap that’s a beautiful explanation! I am friends with my other, and our relationship appears quite odd to my other friends who see partnership in romantic terms. I have no aspirations for that. I seek balance and we are quite comfortable in this state. It truly is higher love. Thank you!

As I get older unconditional love is letting go, being fully free on one another, I've not yet lived it in my old age as I've confused love with attachhnen of fear, fear of losing it, fear of not being enough and alone .. Not the relaxed, easy love flow where you are energised in their presence... For now I'm only experiencing on my own not in someone else...

Trust or belief in good intentions without needing proof or verification. How do I know that you love me? you didnt buy me any gifts and you even forgot our anniversary. Or I didnt feel like you understood me and wasnt listening enough. Well those are examples of not trancending, but solving them would require forgiveness and trust beyond the boundaries of language

For example sarcasm- thats a very much grey intention- it mite be said with love in mind or the intention of bieng loving, but since its sarcasm, it rarely gets recieved that way
