In this Soul Snack, Gary Zukav answers a listener’s question that many have quietly wondered about: what determines a soulmate? His answer is expansive - every person on this planet, all seven billion incarnate souls, is in truth a soulmate. The more meaningful question is not who your soulmate is, but how you choose to relate to the souls whose paths cross your own.

Gary introduces spiritual partnership as the most conscious and fulfilling way to relate to another soul - a relationship between equals, co‑created with intention for the purpose of spiritual growth, in which each partner chooses how they show up for one another.

The hallmark of a true soulmate connection: partners stay together as long as they grow together spiritually - and share with one another what they fear most could destroy the partnership.

What You’ll Discover in This Soul Snack:

(00:43) — Gary offers a new way to understand the word soulmate: with seven billion incarnate souls on this planet, every person whose path crosses yours is, in truth, your soulmate.

(01:33) — The deeper question is not who your soulmate is, but how you choose to relate - with awareness, love, and spiritual intention toward a fellow soul on a shared journey.

(02:32) — Gary describes spiritual partnership as a conscious relationship between equals created for spiritual growth, in which partners stay together as long as both grow - and share what they fear most could damage the relationship. He reflects on his 26‑year partnership with Linda Francis as an example.

Every day brings a choice between two ways of living: one rooted in gratitude and contentment, the other in anger and despair. In this Soul Snack, Gary Zukav explains what comes after emotional awareness, once a painful or pleasing sensation has been noticed near an energy processing center like the throat, chest, or solar plexus.

In this Deepcast episode, Gary Zukav takes on one of humanity's oldest fears: the idea that evil is a force loose in the world, something separate from us that can attack, tempt, or possess us. He traces this belief back through Christianity and Buddhism, both built on the story of a young man (Jesus, Siddhartha) who faced temptation on his path to a higher state of being. In the old consciousness, that temptation gets treated as an outside enemy, an independently existing evil that only an institution like the church can help you defeat. Gary argues this framing has always been a trap, one that keeps people dependent and afraid instead of powerful.
