Answer

Dear G S,

Paramhansa Yogananda helps us to understand the nature of attraction and repulsion through the law of Karma. Karma is the law of cause and effect, and it is woven into the fabric of creation.

Nothing happens by chance. This world is ruled by karma.

Its hard to comprehend the reason behind events with the mind, because there is a bigger picture, that we are not able to perceive with the mind.

People get attracted to each other, because of past lives connection. There might be a karmic bond that needs to be resolved. Once the connection is fulfilled, people depart, and have no feeling for each other anymore.

The law of karma and reincarnations is hard to fathom with the mind, so it is better not to try to make sense of why things happen. Instead, it is better to pray and meditate, and ask God to help you accept and understand the situation according to the divine law.

Here is a book by Paramhansa Yogananda, that can help you have a broader understanding of: Karma and Reincarnation

I hope this is helpful.

Blessings,
