Please say more on this subject. Everything about soul and soul growth is very important and interesting to me. My beliefs about gender identity vs biology are similar to yours.
I died, left my body, crossed over to Heaven, and returned to my body.
NDE stands for Near Death Experience, a term coined by Raymond Moody.
There was nothing “Near” about it for me.
If you want to get to the foundation of understanding the soul, seek to understand “consciousness. “
A good place to start is to understand brain wave frequencies as measured in an EEG and the correlated ages and attributes.
Than add to it the gamma frequencies that are the frequencies of the mystics.
Our perception of reality is a function of the frequency of consciousness from which we view it.
The lack of Love in humans is a major reason for much of the mental illness, no matter the gender.
*********
Do you mean the lack of Love as ability to love or as lack of receipt of love from those around the person?
Taking it further, the soul evolves over many lifetimes. The pattern is seven embodiments male, seven female. On that change into the other gender, there may be momentums hanging over from the past seven. When these are amplified by aberrant psychology and chemistry, the individual reaches out for relief in a gender change. But it’s only palliative, and regret ensues sooner or later. But we always know our gender before embodiment, as that it what the individual needs and accepts for soul development.
Good question.
Both.
First is the mother’s love for the child in her womb. This is necessary for healthy fetal development. If a child was unwanted, they know it and it creates an underlying personality trait of never feeling good enough, no matter how successful they are in life. When I touch these memories in a person’s soul it knocks the person over backward off their feet.
Second is the love between the parents. This allows a parent to be there for the developing child to hold on, but does not create an unhealthy co-dependency needy love between one parent and the child. ( When I stimulate a childhood memory of parents fighting in front of the child, the child starts physically shaking, even though the child is now an adult)
The most important love is an unconditional self acceptance exactly as you are. L9ve both the good and the bad, as if you reject the bad you can’t change it to good. By this I mean not using love as a carrot on a stick that you chase and if you catch it you can now love yourself.
Chase the carrot on the stick and better yourself because you love yourself, not as a prerequisite to loving yourself.
Finally, it is the Love of God that keeps your soul growing and expanding upward.
Jesus’s two commandments are the most important scriptures in the Bible.
First, there is no set number.
Second, they alternate as one must raise both masculine and feminine in balance.
This is why couples tend to resonate when they meet a partner at the same level of development.
Jesus’s two commandments are the most important scriptures in the Bible.

What are Jesus’ two commandments?
It’s a bit more complicated than that. I can only speak from what I directly observe and experience. I do not speculate based upon theories, beliefs, or experiences of others.
Love God is the first, and Love thy neighbor as thyself is the second.
I emphasize the word “Thyself” in the second commandment. I actually like the paraphrase by the Sufi poet Rumi of the second commandment. “Life is about finding and removing the obstacles to Love within thyself.”
I remember in a Bible study discussing that Jesus told us to love our neighbors on the same level as ourselves. Not putting others above ourselves. On the same level as ourselves.
But we must also Love ourselves. I’m not speaking of pride, just unconditional self love or self acceptance.
