when a soul is reunited with god....'it' becomes deeply 'rooted in god' again......
god like qualities come forth...the soul learns the Love of god,,,and is then able to share this Love with others.....
the Love of god...contains no jealously....possessiveness.....
it is difficult to Love another while soul consciousness is still in illusion/maya.....
for when in maya and loving another,,,,jealously and possessivness can happen.....those, are the sin....those are the 'things' that can keep soul from god.....
sex itself is not a sin....it is the jealously and possessiveness that is the sin....
until a soul is deeply rooted in god...it has the potential to fall prey to those sins.

Anne your theme is similar in your posts from the past. i certainly have 'things' to work on in life. Jealousy and possessiveness have never seemed to haunt me. Have they been something that u have been working on? i have always felt that if something wasn't meant to b then why b possessive or jealous? Y not b happy for someone's happiness if they r indeed happy? We strive to b kind to others and hope for their highest welfare. If we r jealous and possessive we leave ourselves closed off from love from somewhere and someone else.
