We normally meet three kinds of people. The first kind will mostly comment on your physical appearance. They will tell you about your weight, your appearance, your hair, your clothes. Most often they are not complimentary. Included in this category are those who think these things about you but need not say them. These people are in their gross body. They themselves are trapped in the lowest level of consciousness that is the body's. The other kind is who will engage with you mentally. They are aware of your feelings, reactions. They can read your mind, so to speak. They can be empathetic if they so desire. They know what you may be feeling or thinking. They are 'sensitised' to you. We feel closer to these people because of this. Most of our family members and close friends fall in this category. They live in their minds, a slightly higher state of consciousness than the body's. Then there are those you relate to from the heart. Here there is an almost spiritual or soul connection. They know things about you even without being with you. They 'read' you when time and distance separates you. These people could be anyone - not family or friends even. They could just be someone off the street or someone you met recently. But there is a definite connection. These people are the most rare in each of our lives because they live in their hearts. We all aspire unknowingly to meet people like them. Knowing at least one such person in your life is important.
