Is there such thing as "the one" (meaning the person) or could it be more then one?

Answer 1

there is only one or is it none? never could figure that part out

Answer 2

No there is no such thing as "the one." If there was, that would be very unsettling because what if your "one" was in Somalia or something, some place you'd never find him.

The key to a successful relationship is finding a guy who shares the same values and outlook on life as you, is acceptable to you as far as appearance, and is at a point in his life where he is looking for a serious relationship.

There is a considerable number of guys I'm sure meet this criteria. So now it's just time for you to bump into one of them and get the thing started.

Answer 3

No the one is an illusion. This is more easily understandable if one considers the actual scale of the components of an atom. If one takes into account the fact that the neutrons, protons and electrons of an atom actually have huge spaces between them it becomes clear that the atoms that make up seemingly solid objects are made up of 99+ percent empty space.

This alone does not seem too important till you add the idea that the atoms that make up seemingly solid objects are more of a loose conglomeration that share a similar attraction but never really touch each other.

At first glance this does not really seem relevant, but closer analysis reveals that this adds a tremendous amount of empty space to solid objects that are already made up of atoms that are 99 percent space. When so-called solid objects are seen in this light it becomes apparent that they can in no way be the seemingly solid objects they appear to be.

We ourselves are not exceptions to this phenomenon.

These seemingly solid objects are more like ghostly images that we interpret as solid objects based on our perceptual conclusions.

From this we must conclude that Perception is some sort of a trick that helps us to take these ghostly images and turn them into a world we can associate and interact with. This clever device seems to be a creation of our intellect that enables us to interact with each other in what appears to be a three dimensional reality.

I hope that helps to answered your question.

Answer 4

The "person" (pure Son (or Daughter)) is an extension of the higher Self, or Holy Christ Self, in Matter (Mater). Each human being is a compound Idea of God.

To explore one's nature, would advise understanding Oneness as "I Am the One," an individuation of Soul as in Plotinus' One Mind Soul triunity of Being, and Christ Jesus' "I and My Father are One."

Some worthwhile books: "Climb the Highest Mountain," Mark Prophet; "Watch Your Dreams" and "Men in White Apparel," Ann Ree Colton; "Light Is a Living Spirit" and "Man's Subtle Bodies and Centres," O. M. Aivanhov.

Also, "Expecting Adam," Martha Beck, Ph.D., "The Great Divorce," C. S. Lewis, "Autobiography of a Yogi," Yogananda, http://www.yogananda-srf.org and http://www.easwaran.org are good. Would note the spiritual gift of bilocation as demonstrated by Saint Padre Pio, and the ability to travel out-of-body as described by Mark Prophet in "The Masters and Their Retreats."

As to the "one and only," meaning the romantic, "Soul Mates and Twin Flames," Elizabeth Clare Prophet, and "Sexual Force or the Winged Dragon," O. M. Aivanhov, are good. There may be more than one potential soulmate; there is one twin flame. Kindly see also "Testimony of Light," Helen Greaves, and "The Beautiful Story of a Master," Louise-Marie Frenette.

The more one Self-individuates, Soul-realizes, the more one's true nature and being is attractive to others of that same calibre. Be the one you'd like to meet, re the complementary gender, re qualities such as honesty, lovingkindness, love, respect, faithfulness, and so on. Kindly note that men prefer respect to love, about 60% and 40%, and women prefer love to respect, about 60% and 40%. This is a key to the complementarity and dynamism of gender.

Answer 5

Your culture wants you to look for the idea of a perfect person and then attempt to emulate it or become a perfect copy of that ideal.
It can't exist as nature has never made a perfect copy of anything and the idea of 'perfection' is a human one.

The 'one' is unnecessary as the only purpose would be to create copies of this 'one'. That is the idea of 'salvation'. The subject views the object and becomes the object.

There is only one. You and I are one. All is one.

Answer 6

I like to think that there can be more than "one"... because the idea that you have to find one person in this great big world is kind of depressing.

I think there is probably a select few.... and maybe a different right person for different stages in your life.

I know my high school/college boyfriend was the right person for me to be with at the time, I learned a lot from him... but ultimately not the "the one" to marry.

The man I am engaged to is "the one" and I believe it is for the rest of time... and romantically I believe he is the only one for me but I can't imagine that there is not a single other compatible person out there for me.

If something happened to me I would want him to marry again and be happy.... so would that make me not the one or his new wife not the one.... :)

I think there is one (or more) person (or people) out there for each of us, but we are all different.

Not sure if that helped, but those are my thoughts on the issue!

Answer 7

Well since I have been in "group" endeavors, I think there could be a "the many" but if there is a ONE...I hope he can fly like Neo, and have disassociative disorder against spoons like him tooo... *giggling madly to self* -Rachel.

Answer 8

more than one

Answer 9

i think you could find "the one" more than once
think about all the widows who remarry and so on
