This post about soul connections is inspired by the 1970’s classic television show, Kung Fu.

For the past couple of months, I have been watching reruns of the 1970’s television show, Kung Fu. I vaguely remember watching this during my childhood, but I could not understand the teachings about soul connections as I do now as an adult.

I watched an episode which gave a beautiful description of soul connections in the context of physical death. It got me thinking about my afterlife connection with Robin. I share this because perhaps this will resonate with you as well in terms of your soul connections with deceased loved ones. 

Below, I have transcribed the dialogue between Kwai Chang Caine and Master Kan from Kung Fu, Season 1, Episode 15:

Kwai Chang Caine: Master, what is the best way to meet the loss of one we love?

Master Kan: By knowing that when we truly love, it is never lost. It is only after death that the depth of the bond is truly felt and our loved one becomes more a part of us than was possible in life.

Kwai Chang Caine: Are we only able to feel this toward those whom we have known and loved a long time?

Master Kan: Sometimes a stranger known to us for moments can spark our souls to kinship for eternity.

Kwai Chang Caine: How can strangers take on such importance to our souls?

Master Kan: Because our soul does not keep time. It merely records growth.

Soul Connections Between Strangers

The context of this dialogue is that a new acquaintance of Caine had just died. He felt extraordinarily close to him even though they had not known each other very long.

I love how this scene addresses this phenomenon of feeling very close to someone not known for long. There is so much emphasis in our modern world on love only being legitimate when you have known someone and known them for a long time. If you did not know them for long, or at all, the love you say you have for a particular soul can be quickly invalidated with a, “You didn’t even know them so how can you love them?”

That is understandable. However, the strength and depth of soul connections is not solely determined by the length of time you have known someone. In fact, you can “know” someone for a long time and not connect deeply at the soul level at all. Interactions can be maintained as surface and shallow. So, the depth of connection does not necessarily have anything to do with time that you have known someone.

Millions of people love people in the public eye they have never met. They love them because of a positive impact they have had on their life. It is possible that they might not like the celebrity if they got to know them on a day-to-day personality level. But the reality is that it is one form of love to love someone for their art, sports, acting or singing and the inspiration and benefit they gave, whether you know them or not.

Prior to Robin’s death in 2012, in April, I started to feel I had a soul connection with him even though we had never met and I did not know him. I couldn’t explain it, but I was drawn to pray for him and keep tabs on what was happening for him in terms of his health after I found out about his illness. This concern for him developed even after years of not following him or his career. I felt that I loved him and cared about his soul. I wanted to support him spiritually through prayer and mantras even though he had never met me and would have had no knowledge of me even existing.

Someone could easily invalidate my feelings stating I was just attracted to a celebrity like millions of other people are. Yeah, but why would I pick someone who was terminally ill and near death? Usually, people are drawn to celebrities who are alive and well.

I was pulled and drawn to him inexplicably and magnetically. I had to try and reach him. So, I started communicating with him by just having a dialogue. I didn’t know if he could perceive me or not. I just had to do it. I had to at least try to connect with his spirit. I was blessed with responses back from his spirit, such as this dream visit and many others which I have documented on this website:

According to Shivani Bajaj, in an article called, On Soul Connections:

Often we experience a soul connection when we vibrate at the same frequency and this happens after a lot of inner work.

I would say this is true in terms of my connection with Robin. To me, twin souls are not souls split in two, or being half of a soul. They are whole souls that vibrate at a nearly identical frequency of spiritual light. I was drawn to him because we do vibrate at the same frequency which often manifests in synchronicity such as what I wrote in the post below:

Synchronicity lets you know when you share a soul connection with someone. I had done a lot of inner work prior to the manifestation of this connection and continue to do a lot of inner work healing my past. This is because in order to connect with a twin soul in spirit, your vibration needs to be cleared of trauma and other accumulated life issues. This is the ongoing process that I am now engaged in. I recommend this article to help with this process.

Kung Fu Teachings About Soul Connections: Commentary

So when Master Kan said, “It is only after death that the depth of the bond is truly felt and our loved one becomes more a part of us than was possible in life,” I strongly resonated with this. This can definitely be true between souls who knew each other. It can also be true for souls that didn’t.

For those of us who did not know each other at all or even meet, our bond and connection can only begin and be realized after physical death. Yes, this is possible no matter how much people ridicule this or try to deny it. You can begin or resume a pre-existing spiritual connection with someone after they die, even when you did not meet in their most recent lifetime. However, you have to be open to this. Not everyone is and that is fine. If you are, you could be in for some of the most life-changing, wonderful experiences of your life.

It was only after Robin’s death that I became aware of the bond we share as souls. I did not know we shared a soul connection while he was alive in the physical world. It was only after his death that I felt the true depth of our bond even though we had never met. The synchronicity, telekinesis, and dreams I have experienced in terms of afterlife communication caused me to feel a close and deep, eternal bond with his spirit.

It is very interesting to have a bond like this with someone you never met. It ties into the question Caine asked, “How can strangers take on such importance to our souls?”

Well, my answer to that is that our souls are not really strangers to each other. The soul is the energy light vibration that lives on after we die. We can recognize each other’s energy signatures as the soul shines through.

Our earthly selves, our physical bodies and personalities, are strangers to each other. I don’t know anything about what it was like to live with Robin or even have a cup of tea with him. But our souls go much deeper than this. Someone who you did not know or not know for long could be a long-lost twin soul, member of your soul family or past life companion.

The soul knows what the mind cannot compute. And that is how you can love someone who is for intents and purposes a stranger.

All of the stories I share on this website have one common purpose: to show that powerful soul connections with someone you did not know during their physical life are possible. It is always my loving intention to show how afterlife twin soul connections can manifest using my experiences with Robin as examples. I am just one person of many experiencing this type of amazing connection.

We limit ourselves too much as eternal souls if we think our deep and loving soul connections are restricted only to the people we know now. I believe that your soul is connected to other souls that you don’t know right now. Someday, you will find out about the others who you are connected to, just as I did with Robin. The connection may show itself when you least expect it.

That is what my experiences with Robin’s spirit have taught me. After he died, he became more a part of me and my life than was ever possible when he was alive.
