LOVE LETTERS FROM A WIDOWER: THE MYSTERY OF SOUL MATES IN LIGHT OF ANCIENT WISDOM

(Quoted from the book:) To the ancient sages, Blanca, the Universe is mysterious. Existence, in general, is mysterious, and so is its every aspect. Including that fundamental aspect of human existence the “reverse side” of which we are going to investigate in this letter and the ones following it – the subject is too complex, and one letter will not be enough. I am talking, of course, about erotic love, the love between man and woman (though, of course, this kind of love can a lso happen between two people of the same gender).

Theory is the necessary foundation, but it’s useless if he does not translate that theory into practice. And that takes time and effort. https://www.amazon.com/...
