you are taking in the very incarnation of god
Each and every one of us are soul mates. We are all one body whether we want to acknowledge it or not. We always were. We are all tied to one another as the human organism.
And even more, tied to the entire creation as one body. Interdependent. Dependent on each other for our very lives. Dependent on the water, the air, the plants and the animals. Inseperable.
We are all soul mates.
Not only does everything we do in this life affect the body of everything else, but our interactions with one another each and every day, regardless of how casual or intimate affect one another's souls.
As you take in the body of an animal, a carrot, a river, you are taking in the very incarnation of god. You are taking the one body of which you are a part into your own body. And in doing it, you are simultaneously destroying life and creating life all at the same time. What could be more intimate and soul-mate-ish than that?
“Take and eat – this is my body, given for you.”
