Soulmates in Judaism

I dreamt of my soul mate coming to me and saw him kneeling at the end of my bed and I said to him, (not hi or who are you) but ; "how did you find me here?" As I lived in a place I never intended to be. The following day I saw him in church, kneeling in the same way, in the same grey suit as he had on the night before. Then I find out that he had never worn that suit before that first day he went to church. We both knew we were destined to be together and were married almost 20 years, but he had 'wandering eyes', which brought our life undone 24 years ago.😔

41:02 i think ive heard rabbi manis friedman (i think) tell the story that adam and eve were kinda one person joined back to back and He split them.

I worked as a medical doctor in a ambiguos genital clinic. It’s rare but there are people born like that. The treatment it’s complex: involves genetics, plastic surgeons, endocrinologist psicologist etc. I also remember I so a tumtum, but he died at birth.

It wasn’t difficult for Hashem to part the sea but for man it is a monumental thing. For Hashem it was effortless for he is the infinite one, HQBH.

From an Astrological perspective I have heard that a good soulmate choice would be opposing signs across from each other on the zodiac wheel. For example Pisces and Virgo are opposite of each other on the wheel which makes them compliments of each other which enables the pair to fill in each others gaps, this requires that the two are in agreement when engaged in the magnum opus of soul development. I love this channel and its various topics.

[@my2cworth4U]

Yes. Don't marry anyone who can't say: "I'm sorry!" Excellent presentation.

[@barrenwasteland7782]

I have distanced myself from women to reflect on my relationship with Hashem. All this time telling myself, "G-d will send you someone, focus on other things." So ive been doing this. I have given up my home to help my family so i can offer more assistance. I have set up boundaries for myself emotionally so that i will not get attached to anyone who may lead me astray from my path. But as you reminded me here, "it is not good for man to be alone" a verse that has rung in my head fornthe past few years. I cant just go out and throw myself out there until i feel i have something to throw out. " Oh hey, yeah ive given up a comfortable american life to live as a transient to ensure my mother and brothers are taken care of" doesnt sound very appealing to me. I feel like i have to be alone in order to strengthen my relationship with Hashem. I feel like if the woman that comes into my life has to at least appreciate this and i have mer no one here that does. It doesnt help that i dont live anywhere near a Jewish community. I am a convert in a strange land. I dont know where to go or where to turn. I just retrun back to my parashas and my brachas. Hashem has brought me to this place of understanding and rigidity. Im afraid to soften up in any direction for fear of being led astray. I dont want to feel like Shimshon one day assuming im all good and then forget to acknowledge Hashem in all my strengths. I am afraid i am not doing right by Hashem living as a hobbit alone in my car. At the same time i look to the sky and ponder which way do i go. The world is huge. I have found confort in being honest and up front, but this has also led me to remain alone and it almost feels like my other half is just missing. From the world entirely. Perhaps ive made some fatal mistake unknown to me that has pushed me off in my own little corner of solitude. To say much less, im freaking out because i keep hearing/reading things about marriage and it feels so unobtainable at this time. I appreciate your perspective and points of view and i see you as such a good, down to earth Rebbi. Bless you and yours, always. Obviously im looking forward to some new classes. Keep up the good work. Sending love your way!

[@wickiezulu]

Is it possible for non-soulmates or even those unsuitable in other respects (e.g. life choices etc) to have certain attractive qualities about them that resonate with you enough to see them as a template for a potential soulmate candidate? Is it even permissible to pray to Hashem about finding someone with said traits without actually wanting to be with the source of inspiration as it were?

Thank you Efraim Palvanov, your very well spoken and have a Gift of teaching - speaking. Looking forward to following your videos. That said is there a way to reach you directly.? Or maybe a way to give to you.? Thanks again for all your videos, it's been Amazing. Sincerely'N'TRUTH d'Anthony

[@Elysiel_cherub]

Truly, when you compare cultures of the Haudenosaunee people and the Jews, there's a lot of similarities. My cousin got married last year and the orator said that the Man and Woman become as one.

[@debrapaulino918]

Equally amazing that so far I've not come across even one incarnated son from Great Spirit/Wakan Tonka to the Sioux Nations. There is Masauu'u (sp?) of the Hopi but he wasn't an incarnate son of their God/s as best I can decipher. I think he is category of an angel or what they deem as the holy people. Navajo, same. Wally Brown Navajo elder says the holy people were once visible but when humanity left the Beauty Way they are now invisible but still among us. Interesting, ey?

The gematria of Basar Echad and Yizhak + Rivka is 515, which is the same amount of times that Moshe Rabbeinu prayed to G-d to be allowed to enter Eretz Israel. Could there be any correlation here? 🤔

Yes, I speak about that often and wrote about it here: www.mayimachronim.com/marriage-and-prayer-why-they-are-the-same-and-how-to-succeed-in-both/

I was shown this in the clouds . I seen God and he was rounding up sheep in wolfs clothing and there was a woman and he was telling her they were soul mates and those were there children, she said "theres so many in wolf clothing's , he had a great smile with love and pointec at her and said "because of you ". She looked at him and said "ME". I think she was Eve and God was Adam and they literally created Gods children. They are soul mates and she found him every life. Gods been busy creating his family. She beared alot of fruit. She made the world fall but God still loves her. She is his Bride because they fall in love over and over. I believe she is on earth now . God guided me to you and your teachings.

What about divorced ones? I had to do this due to a serious mental illness my ex has... :( are all my soulmates ill?

According to the Arizal, the person would return in another life to marry their soulmate. The main reasons for reincarnation were discussed in this class: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oaTFqKeqiZVmitE

I saw an image in a church once that verified the idea of adam as genderless and split it.

[@capricornyearofthetiger]

Likewise, Adam became a proper name in Greek. It has multiple meanings man, humanity, man of the earth literally red man.

[@Sympan_Thea]

A man is responsible for his soulmates deeds. How can she or he not be worthy of each other if he is responsible for her deeds and they are one soul, so their sins and good deeds are one because they were one from the beginning. He takes the responsibility of the whole soul. So why would one not be worthy of the other if they are the same soul?

[@rocdajacable]

Can I ask are you saying the whole combined Two souls as one ,by His design

[@innesfrey9602]

It is a lots of confusion in your interpretation? What about Lilit ? In Hebrew made from Tselo/ rib of Adam , can also mean made from shade or shadow/tsel in Hebrew meaning related image of Eve. In addition She was second woman that God created. First was actually female not a male and her name was LiLit

[@EfraimPalvanov]

Addressed the Lilith question in the second part of the series on the Apocrypha here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6qTfZJmiqporsk

It's so difficult that even if you were with your soulmatr you wouldn't know it.

I might disagree somewhat

[@MarioMancinelli82]

I think you're a smart man and love your work but I question this video. It's not really soulmates if you think about it. The lecture contradicts the title. Any marriage can work if you have God and fire in a relationship.

It is frowned upon and not ideal, but we do recognize that it is sometimes necessary.

'only instant of intimacy not for procreation in Torah'- well Yudah and Tamar wasn't for procreation I don't think-- at least not consciously from YUDAH'S perspective. So a half exception ha ha?

[@rocdajacable]

Can you expand your thoughts

[@davidsavage6324]

@@rocdajacable well, without giving it time to ruminate-- I guess my general thought was that the statement was more like a general Torah principle that Torah intimacy is only for procreation as a rule and whatever exceptions must have something important to impart by expressing deviation from the rule; Maybe in Yudah and Tamar- Tamars proper (?) yearning to go above and beyond to fullfill the mitzvah by 'any' means possible- and maybe unconsciously Yudah was guided to help her unconventionally in a way he never would have allowed himself to consciously - Tamar was kind of quasi-agunah now that i think about it. If God commands even His Name to be blotted out to promote marital harmony or reveal truth-how much more we being willing to mar our character/shem/reputation- sacrifice our dignity because the other indignity is way, way too much indignity to allow to stand another moment- to take a sin upon our karma if it was only feasible way to free an agunah or unjustly imprisoned.

Wow i have been lookin for this So far i agree 99% Here is my million dollar question What happens when she fails the test commits Adultery & dies for it Returns to you 3 times beforehand And on top of that she & her esau came within inches of being murdered in cold blood. Yet i wrote her a letter & told her exactly what was going to happen & she was going to die. She actually died on mother's day after the day i went to see her, he came out of the house and i said depart from me worker of iniquity because i will keep the Commandments of my G-d they left I called Her name she came out of the house while her mother said G-d didn't send you here. She asked me to fight for her i said you were not worth it. Yet she made my Heart flutter the moment i saw her 1st time. It was 41 years ago this mother's day She prayed down a wedding dress fit perfect 40 yrs ago 550.00 value given to her i bought everything else. When she died she walked into a vision of mine with a jewel crusted scroll it open to the heavens I know it was her returning to him. I also can confirm i watched a headed human form leave my body and go up into the heavens when a conformation of Adultery was confirmed.

Doesnt the Talmud recommend that an uncle should marry his neice?

[@facetoface-withGod]

I love your teaching and am only at 28:00, but, from the gate of heaven, I must answer this question of yours: Does God have a gender? Answer: YES! He is male. I stood face to face with Him and Jesus at heaven's gate the night I died. God insisted that I look directly at Him. He is undoubtedly, one hundred percent male (and so is Jesus) - and also, all the angels who escorted me were also males.

​@@facetoface-withGodWoman's purpose in your belief means she was created to procreate. Woman did not have a soul. I do not remember when it was decided she does but recent in terms of history. An NDE is not death. If they were, each ought to be similarly the same but are not.
