Souls in Love... Madly. Truly.

Souls in Love... Madly. Truly. is a love story that transcends time. The book is premised on the imagination that everything is connected, and everything that once lived lives on forever in the eternity of time. The spinning wheel turns, round and round in a circle. One fate is tied to the next. The thread, red like blood, cleaves together all our deeds. One cannot unravel the knots, but they can be severed. Someone severed the knot of the protagonists with a sharp blade. Yet something remained behind that could not be severed - an invisible bond. The bond is held together by a love that admits to hierarchical needs and is a subject of souls. Love evolves with time and reaches an intermediate stage where souls fall in love, and identical souls yearn to reunite much before the bodies meet each other.The story of Souls in Love is a small part of the journey of love that is experienced by Rahul and Saral in their present life, felt in a future life as Param and Sneha and again experienced in the next life where their identical souls reunite as Abhay and Nusrat in most unlikely circumstances. When they do so, they feel the bond of love from their past lives. The Creator communes with them through dreams, imagination, intuition, hope, longing and love to make them aware of such a bond between them. But there is no way of knowing that ever. Rahul and Saral or Param and Sneha or, for that matter, Abhay and Nusrat are just the names. The choice of couple and/or names are immaterial because souls are experiencing love through the bodies. In that sense, mythology defines every couple as cloud and rain, that is, Badal and Varsha.- Mishmi Verma Rao
