How to Create a Soulmate
Finding a soulmate is almost impossible. What about creating one instead?
The peak of love
It is almost impossible to find a soulmate. The earth is big — millions and millions of people — and life is very short. How are you going to find your soulmate? It rarely happens.
Man has seven centers. The lowest is the sex center and the highest is the samadhi center, and between these two there are five more centers. When all the seven centers of a man are in tune and in harmony with all the seven centers of a woman, then you have found a soulmate.
Whenever it happens, absolute oneness is felt — unity. Two persons utterly disappear into each other. There is no division at all. Two persons function as if they are one person — two bodies, but one soul. It is absolute harmony. It is love at its peak.
Disappearing into each other
You must have seen the shivalinga in the Shiva temples in India.
Pure energy is symbolized by linga and yoni — by the male and female sexual organs — creative energy, vital energy, energy out of which the whole of life flows. The personalities have disappeared; it is a meeting of pure energy. Only pure energies can dissolve into each other; if you have a solid personality it will obstruct dissolution. Only pure energies, liquid, can enter into each other and become one.
The relationship ladder: where do you score
At this highest peak where all the seven centers meet, the joy is constant. It is orgasmic; it is a spiritual communion. It is a mystic phenomenon; it is transcendental, but it is very rare.
Below it, there is another meeting: six centers meeting. That too is rare. It is union, not unity. It is not a cosmic, mystical union, but still something very close to it — an aesthetic union, an artistic phenomenon, a poetic experience.
The first can be understood only by those who have known samadhi, satori. The second can be understood by poets, painters, dancers, musicians.
Lower than that, is the meeting of five centers. It is not even a union; it is duality. Two persons remain two, but still there is great harmony. The two function as if two musical instruments are playing in harmony. There is no union; there is no unity. They are separate.
This is what Kahlil Gibran has described, “Lovers should be like two pillars of a temple supporting the same roof, yet apart and separate.” It is still beautiful.
The fourth is four centers meeting. Duality. Harmony has disappeared but there is great understanding about each other, great caring about each other. There is no spontaneous harmony, but out of understanding a certain rhythm is maintained. It is an experience of great intelligence. One has to be aware — if one is not aware, one will fall from this fourth state.
Then there is the fifth: three centers meeting. Duality becomes more and more emphasized. Understanding is still there but not constant — flickering, shaky. Once in a while conflict arises, but it is not disruptive of love. On the contrary, it adds to it, makes it a little more spicy. It is a psychological experience.
Below it is two centers meeting. Great duality, clear-cut duality. It is almost fifty-fifty: fifty percent understanding, fifty percent conflict. It is a physiological experience. Still a great balance is there because of this fifty percent understanding, fifty percent conflict.
And below it is one center meeting. Too much conflict. Rare moments of joy, very rare. Once in a while, few and far between. But still worth it! It is a sexual experience.
The zero relationship
And below it, the lowest, is no centers meeting. These are the couples you meet. It is not even a sexual experience; it is even below sexual experience. It is more or less masturbatory. It is a certain kind of social, economic, political arrangement. It is exploitation. It is businesslike.
It is neither friendship nor enmity. It is a very formal relationship — a relationship which is not a relationship at all. You exploit the other; the other exploits you. It is a kind of prostitution. The ugliest possibility...but this is what is happening on the earth.
The science of transformation
In the East we have developed a science: if you cannot find a soulmate, you can create one. That science is Tantra. To find a soulmate means to find the person with whom all your seven centers meet naturally. When it happens, it is tremendously beautiful. But it is like lightning — a natural phenomenon, but undependable.
If you wait for your natural soulmate to meet with you, it will be like waiting for lightning to read your bible. You will not be able to read much; for a moment it is there, and by the time you have opened the bible it is gone. Hence Tantra was created.
Tantra is alchemy: it can transform your centers; it can transform the other’s centers. It can create a rhythm and harmony between you and your beloved. It is like bringing electricity into your house. Then you can turn it on and off whenever you want. These seven centers in you are nothing but centers of body electricity.
Scientists say that all the electricity that is in your body, if put together, can be used to light a five-candle bulb. Quantitatively it is not much — quantitatively the atom is not much — but qualitatively, if it explodes, it has tremendous energy in it.
Soulmates creating paradise
These seven centers, these chakras are nothing but knots in your body’s electric current. They can be changed, rearranged, given a new form. Two lovers can be transformed so deeply that all their seven centers can start meeting.
Tantra is the science of transforming ordinary lovers into soulmates. Tantra can transform the whole earth. It is one of the greatest treasures that is — lying there, unused. The day humanity uses it, the earth will become aglow with a new love.
If we can help people to grow into such depths of love, just think how beautiful the world can become. This very earth can be paradise. Right now you are at the lowest, where not even a single center is meeting with the other person. It is impossible if you depend on nature. It is very very possible if you depend on Tantra.
