do you think it's possible that i'll get to be with my soulmate after i die? i'm not a very religious person but i do vaguely believe in the concept of an afterlife, specifically hell. i don't really believe in spirits but i do find the idea of becoming a ghost comforting. my soulmate is not someone i'm close to. he won't know i exist in this life and he won't know i exist if i visit him in the afterlife, but it's not something i mind. i desire to see him and be with him above all else. i've looked into different death philosophies but i think i'm too stupid and rigid to change my thinking about it. either i will cease to exist, go to hell, or become a ghost. it's become increasingly painful for me to live without him. do you think i should look forward to a positive outcome after death?

Everyone has the same soulmate, it's One or God, the cause of all life. As you become wiser and more virtuous, you draw closer to One and understand that compassion and love are meant to be universal and impartial, until eventually it's impossible to feel lonely and all feelings of desire are replaced with an abiding and lasting peace. The purpose of life is to reunite with One, to learn how to love goodness more than you love yourself, to become truly selfless. A soul naturally moves towards what it loves, so if you reach that perfect state before you die you'll be lovingly reunited with your true home, at the origin of existence. If you only love material things, yourself, and your own passions when you die, you'll stay down here where those things are to be reborn again and given another chance to learn.
That's what meditation and personal experience have taught me, anyway.
