Alok Da, I have been involved with a married man who has a child. For three years, he has promised to leave his wife, but it has become clear that he has no intention of doing so.

I recently read that the psychic being carries impressions from birth to birth, acting like a silver thread that connects several lifetimes. In contrast, the soul is considered eternal—an essential part of the Brahman. Could you help me understand the distinction between these two concepts more clearly?👣🌟🪡
