The Twin Flame experience is the meeting of another person who awakens within you a spirituality and a sense of being alive that is unlike anything experienced previously. It is often experienced as a transcendental "oneness" with
God, yourself, and the other person. Mortal time becomes
irrelevant. The
two seem to know each other immediately and intuitively, and can continue to correspond off and on throughout a lifetime as though no time has passed at all. Life begins to be measured in terms of experiences, rather than years, after meeting a Twin Flame. The sense becomes that even when physically separated, a twin no longer feels
alone on the planet. This bond can be experienced to such an intensity that it can feel like one twin's
soul is inhabiting the body of the other, sharing the flesh.
The intensity of the connection often sends the Twins (TF's) into a tailspin following a brief experience of heaven on earth. This
period can be considered a time of refining, during which each twin begins a task of identifying and confronting individual demons (
read: unhealthy or self-defeating traits, beliefs, flaws, etc.) If utilized correctly, these trials can work to lead each individual toward greater balance. Developing wholeness as an individual - and not
two halves making a whole - is the goal of the TF experience. This goal can be likened to that of the Buddhist concept of obtaining
Nirvana and the
Christian concept of earthly rebirth into a transcendental state.
Tales describing the Twin Flame
experience - without utilizing the
label of such - abound in both literature and
music, and with varying outcomes.
