Twin Flames and Soul Mates: The Quest for Wholeness

From: http://www.tsl.org 

Aeons ago beyond the confines of time and space, you and your twin flame stood before Alpha and Omega, the Father/Mother God, and vowed to bring to earth a portion of God’s creativity—to bring energy from the Spirit plane of your being, your I AM Presence, into the world of form for action, for good works—and then to return to the plane of Spirit having mastered time and space.
        Learning to translate spiritual energy to the physical plane required a series of incarnations in both masculine and feminine embodiments. In this way, each twin flame had the opportunity to reflect the fullness of the Father/Mother God.
Had we remained in constant harmony, we would have shared the beauty of the relationship of cosmic lovers throughout our many incarnations on earth. But as soon as we lost our harmony with each other and with God— through mistrust, through fear, or through a sense of separation from our divine identity—we allowed darkness to enter our lives, creating worlds of negative energy between us and our twin flame. We found ourselves farther and farther apart until we passed as ships in the night, tragically unaware of each other’s existence.
Each incarnation apart from our twin flame was spent either creating negative karma or balancing some of the karma that stood in the way of our reunion. At times we assumed various relationships with our twin flame—husband/wife, mother/son, father/daughter, and sister/brother—in order to unwind the negative strands of energy we had woven into our subconscious through our misuse of free will.
Often, when people learn that they share a unique mission with their twin flame, they begin to search physically for that one special soul instead of seeking their wholeness within. This is always a detour on the path to soul liberation.

Twin Flames and Soul Mates: The Alchemical Marriage

Cosmic law requires that we first define our own identity in God before we can completely unlock the spiritual potential of our twin flames. For until twin flames achieve a certain level of mastery and oneness with their own Real Selves, they are often unable to cope with the weight of their negative karma amplified by the very presence of their twin flame. The same unique factor that gives twin flames their great spiritual power—their identical blueprint of identity—can likewise cause the amplification of their negative patterns.

Ultimately each and every one of us must learn to change the negative patterns—the base metal—of the human ego into the gold of our divine or Real Self. This is called the alchemical marriage—the marriage of our soul, the feminine aspect of our being, to the ‘Lamb’ who is the real and enduring spiritual self, the masculine aspect. The love of this beloved Christ Self, i.e., that part of us who maintains constant contact with the Source—the I AM Presence—is an incomparable love. This is the Beloved for whom the saints of East and West have given their all.

By daily accelerating consciousness through their communion with God, the saints gradually transcended the human ego. Eventually their souls merged with their real spiritual self as they ascended back to the heart of God. “For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.”

Twin Flames and Soul Mates: Inner Contact of Twin Flames

Your twin flame may have already won this soul liberation and reunited with God—or he may still be struggling to find the way. Where your twin flame is—what his state of consciousness is—can greatly influence your own ability to find wholeness.

Because both of you share the same blueprint of identity—like the design of a snowflake, unique in all of cosmos—whatever energy you send forth is imprinted or stamped with that specific pattern. According to the law that like attracts like, all energy you release cycles to your twin flame—either hindering or helping him on the path to wholeness.

When you send forth love or hope, these qualities will uplift your twin flame. But if you are burdened with frustration or hatred, your twin flame will likewise feel the weight of these misqualified feelings. Sometimes the inexplicable joys or depressions you feel are the moods of your other half registering on your own consciousness.

You can accelerate your progress on the Path if—in your prayer, meditation, or dynamic decrees—you call to your I AM Presence for the inner heart contact with your twin flame. You can make the following invocation:

“In the name of the Christ I call to the blessed I AM Presence of our twin flames for the sealing of our hearts as one for the victory of our mission to humanity. I invoke the light of the Holy Spirit for the consuming of all negative karma limiting the full expression of our divine identity and the fulfillment of our divine plan.”

In this way, even if you live in separate spheres, you can unite spiritually on higher planes and direct light into your own world and the world of your twin flame for the balancing of mutual karma.

This inner contact magnifies the light and attainment you each have and releases the awesome power of the polarity of your love, enabling you to stand strong against the conflicts that inevitably come to the door of all who would defend love.

Inspired by the grandeur of love, artists, writers, and composers throughout the ages have expressed both love’s exalted heights and tragic depths. In many of their masterpieces, we can sense an inner understanding of twin flames, their love for one another, and their encounters with karma and cosmic law.

Mrs. Prophet has interpreted several famous operas from this perspective. Although some of the arias and duets give us a glimpse of the majestic love of twin flames, these stories often end in sorrow, tragedy, or death because one or both of the lovers fail a test of personal mastery—having not yet sealed their own individual path in God.

Twin Flames and Soul Mates: Madame Butterfly

Puccini’s Madame Butterfly tells the story of the American Lieutenant Pinkerton and his contract marriage to Butterfly, a trusting fifteen-year-old Japanese girl. These two souls symbolize twin flames. Their Eastern and Western cultures represent both the masculine and feminine polarities of twin flames as well as the gulf that separates souls who have not yet balanced their karma and must endure the pain of separation as a result.

Pinkerton, a man hardened by the world, has lost the sense of the purity of true love. Although he is attracted by the beauty and charm of Butterfly, he deliberately plans to desert her for an American wife. However, Pinkerton and his Japanese bride do share intense moments of love—their souls uniting as one flame commemorating their original wholeness in God. And the fruit of this union is the conception of a child—a symbol of their great love.

But the Lieutenant is ignorant of this development and blinded by his own selfish desires. He goes home to America leaving Butterfly trusting in his eventual return.

Pinkerton does return, several years later—with an American wife. In her grief at this desertion by her twin flame, Butterfly takes her life.

Twin Flames and Soul Mates: Lohengrin

Wagner’s opera Lohengrin illustrates the relationship of twin flames when the one who has ascended into Spirit endeavors to assist his beloved—still undergoing the tests and initiations on earth.

Elsa is falsely accused of murdering her brother, but she has absolute faith in the arrival of a knight in shining armor to save her. Lohengrin, Elsa’s ascended twin flame, answers her inner call and descends from higher planes to rescue her. He glides across a lake in a boat pulled by a swan, symbolizing a God-realized soul coming from another octave.  

They are married, but Lohengrin, Guru (teacher) to his twin flame, instructs Elsa that she may never ask his name. This is her great test of love—the same test Cupid required of Psyche. Neither Psyche nor Elsa could resist the temptation—both succumb to the human frailty of curiosity and discover the true identity of their lovers. Because of this disobedience, cosmic law requires their separation once again. Lohengrin returns to the plane of Spirit—there to await his twin flame’s self-mastery and their ultimate reunion.

Literature abounds with famous lovers who may very well have been twin flames: Dante finally reaching the point where Beatrice could present him to Christ, Penelope faithfully tending the flame of love that draws Ulysses home from his wanderings, Evangeline tirelessly searching for her beloved, Shakespeare pouring forth his love to the lady of the sonnets, Romeo and Juliet, Launcelot and Guenevere, Tristan and Isolde, Hiawatha and Minnehaha, Robert and Elizabeth Barrett Browning. All shared a love typical of twin flames.

Even looking at the flow of history reveals the importance of twin flames. The pharaoh Ikhnaton and his Queen Nefertiti were twin flames working together to bring the worship of the one God to a world floundering in the throes of polytheism. These same twin flames reembodied as King Clovis and Queen Clothilde to bring Christianity to France in the sixth century.

Twin Flames and Soul Mates: Love of the Guru and Chela

Although twin flames assume every possible relationship in order to develop love’s full potential, the Guru/chela relationship is the most exalted of all. For through it the one who has attained Christ consciousness can draw his other half to God by the magnet of their love. The one who is farther along on the Path becomes the teacher of his beloved—able to use the immense power of their love and essential oneness to accelerate the consciousness of his twin flame.

This was the case with Mark and Elizabeth Prophet, twin flames who shared twelve years together in the Guru/chela relationship. Mark trained Elizabeth for the role of messenger for the Brotherhood, and together they were able to fulfill the mission of their twin flames by bringing forth the Brotherhood’s teachings for the Aquarian age.

Although Mark passed on in 1973, returning to Spirit where he continues to hold the Alpha polarity of their love, his presence is vitally felt by his wife, Elizabeth, their four children—and by all who support their mission. Mark and Elizabeth Prophet are a living example of the eternal love of the Guru and the chela.

Twin Flames and Soul Mates: Soul Mates

Not all of the beautiful and soul-fulfilling loves are those of twin flames. There is also the love of very close, kindred souls called soul mates.

“A soul mate is different from a twin flame. Soul mates share a common mission and comparable stage of spiritual development . They come together because they are working on the same type of karma and the same chakra simultaneously. So soul mates have an attraction that is based on the sacred labor and on the path of self-mastery. A soul mate is like the echo of oneself in Matter working at the same task to fulfill a blueprint for God.”

Mary and Joseph, the parents of Jesus, were soul mates sharing the responsibility for nurturing the Christ within their son. Both of their twin flames were in the octaves of light holding the balance for their mission. Many people today who are still balancing karma but who are on the spiritual Path find themselves drawn to their soul mates for the fulfillment of a shared dharma or sacred labor.

Twin Flames and Soul Mates: Karmic Marriage

 

Besides twin flames and soul mates, a third kind of marriage relationship is frequently seen—the karmic marriage.

Here, the two individuals are drawn together for the balancing of mutual karma. These marriages are often difficult but they are important in achieving mastery on the Path. The husband and wife also gain the good karma of sponsoring and nurturing their children.

Some of these marriages may give the opportunity for the balancing of severe crimes of murder, betrayal, or extreme hatred.

Very often the only way that we can balance that hatred is by the intense love expressed through the husband-wife relationship.

Twin Flames and Soul Mates: The Marriage Union

God has blessed the human institution of marriage as an opportunity for two individuals to develop wholeness through the exchange of their Alpha-Omega polarities. Whether the union of twin flames, soul mates, or karmic partners, the marriage of man and woman is meant to be mystical, a commemoration of the soul’s reunion with the beloved I AM Presence through the Christ, the blessed Mediator.

Jesus demonstrated the importance of marriage as an initiation on the Path when he chose to perform his first public miracle at the marriage feast of Cana—changing the water into wine. The essence of his message was that unless marriage be transformed by the Holy Spirit, it will only be an outer experience. It is our choice as to whether we are content with a marriage based on the water of the human consciousness or whether we require a marriage based on the wine of the divine consciousness.

The cosmic interchange of divine love in the marriage relationship is meant to be the same creative love that framed the universe in the beginning when God as Father gave forth the command, “Let there be light,” and God as Mother answered, “And there was light.” This creative flow can be expressed not only in physical union but also during cycles of dedicated celibacy as each partner goes within to commune with his beloved I AM Presence.

The exchange of the energies of the sacred fire in sexual union is for the transfer of spheres of cosmic consciousness— causal bodies of light. The light energy resulting from this fusion enhances the positive qualities of each of the partners and strengthens their own divine identity—enabling them to carry their shared burden of karma.

As the union is consecrated to the love of God, the harmonious blending of pure Father/Mother energies yields the Son, the Christ consciousness—whether it be in the form of a child, an inspiration, a successful enterprise, or a work of art.

When this exchange is not spiritualized through a recognition that God is both the lover and the beloved, the two individuals may experience physical pleasure, but they also unknowingly take on each other’s karmic patterns without the benefit of a spiritually transmutative love.

This may explain the frequent identity crises suffered by those who have intimate relationships on a casual basis; they take on so many karmic identities, effectively neutralizing their own, that they no longer know who they really are.

Twin Flames and Soul Mates: The Circle of Oneness

The Great White Brotherhood has released a ritual for the consecration of the sacred union of husband and wife and for the sealing of this interchange in the purity of God’s love. It is from the meditation of the angels of love for the protection of holy matrimony:

“Stand together facing the chart of the I AM Presence and make your inner attunement with the star of your divinity. Meditate upon your heart and the flame therein and behold the arc ascend into the center of the Divine Monad. Now take your right hand and dip it into the fires of your heart and draw the circle of our oneness around yourselves as you stand in adoration of the One. Visualize this circle, twelve feet in diameter, as a line of sacred fire. It is your ring-pass-not. Within that circle of oneness is the forcefield of Alpha and Omega; and you focus the T’ai chi, the plus and minus of energies, where you are.” And the cherubim must be invoked daily “for they are the guardians of love in the planes of Mater.“

A vital mission awaits those whose energies are in harmony with divine love. As Mrs. Prophet relates: “I have seen twin flames whose love was never abated, who could hold the balance for an entire city and whose daily invocations would be the transmutation of hatred and of crime and of murder, holding that inner balance….

This is an high and holy calling. It’s not for the mundane who desire the pleasure cult and its sensuality. This is the real inner path for those who understand that there is a cosmos aborning within us, that there’s a world to be saved, that millions of souls need our love and therefore it can never be a selfish love.”

In the cynicism of our age, however, we’ve lost the sense of the power of pure love. We no longer have the buoyant joyous attitude toward life where each day is a new opportunity to give our love as a unique gift to those around us.

Too often we underestimate our ability to transform lives through our example. Djwal Kul, known throughout the world as the Master D.K., once related this story of the miller and his wife.

There lived by the sea a gentle soul who was a miller. He and his wife served together to grind the grain for the people of their town. And it came to pass that in all the land there were no communities where so much happiness reigned as there. Their countrymen marveled and wondered, for they recognized that something unusual must have happened to make the members of this community so singularly wise and happy. And although the townsfolk themselves were born, grew up, matured to adulthood and passed from the screen of life within the community, never in all of their living were they able to understand the mystery. Tonight I shall draw aside the curtain and tell you what made the people of this community so happy and prosperous, so joyous and wise.

It was the service of the miller and his wife and the love which they put into the flour. For this love was carried home in sacks of flour on the backs of those who patronized their mill and was then baked into their bread. At every meal the regenerative power of love from the miller and his wife was radiated around the table and it entered their physical bodies as they partook of the bread. Thus, like radioactive power, the energy of this vibrant love from the miller and his wife was spread throughout the community.

The neighbors did not know the reason of their happiness and none of the people were ever able to discover it. For sometimes—although they live side by side—mankind are unable to pry the most simple secrets about one another.

Twin Flames and Soul Mates: Aquarian Age Alchemy

Even as the miller and his wife silently communicated their love to others, you and your twin flame also influence countless lives around you through your “radioactive” thoughts, feelings, and actions. You have an opportunity to assist life or to place a burden upon it—either by interacting with the negative energy of your past karma cycling to the surface of your consciousness or by recognizing this energy as a challenge to your harmony and love and transmuting it.

The key to transmuting or changing past karma and fulfilling your mission with your twin flame is the violet flame, a spiritual energy given by God to man for his acceleration into the Aquarian age. This action of the Holy Spirit transforms negative energy—anger into love, irritation into peace, suspicion into trust— so that you can influence life positively as you work toward your ultimate victory on the Path.

When you visualize this violet flame and call it forth into your consciousness, it instantaneously begins to change negative energy patterns accumulated over thousands of lifetimes. You can begin to experience feelings of joy, lightness, and hope. It’s as if your entire consciousness were being dipped into a chemical solution of purple liquid which dissolves the karma of centuries.

This is the dispensation many people have been waiting for. This is why we’ve been evolving these tens of thousands of years, why we have gone through all of the understanding of God the Father and God the Son. Now we come to the Holy Spirit energy, the sacred science of alchemy, of self-transformation—through the violet flame.

The Great White Brotherhood has released a violet flame mantra for the Aquarian age: “I AM a being of violet fire, I AM the purity God desires.” “I AM” is the affirmation of the God within, the I AM Presence—the same Presence who declared to Moses “I AM THAT I AM”—”This is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.” Daily immersing ourselves in the cleansing energy of the violet flame is the quickest and most effective way to maintain our harmony and accelerate our consciousness for our ultimate reunion with God and our twin flame.

This is the baptism of the Holy Ghost that was prophesied in the New Testament by John. This is the gift of God for the Aquarian age. This is how the days are shortened for the elect—for the homeward journey, the overcoming of the round of the wheel of rebirth.

 ————

The Yearning for Wholeness

The oncoming Aquarian age is an age for the understanding of God’s energy in polarity as the masculine and feminine principles of the universe. How we experience that energy as our true identity, how we understand it as the essence of twin flames, and how we use it as the integrative power of divine love for the betterment of mankind will determine whether or not we survive as individuals and, ultimately, as a human race.

You may be reading this article because the only thing that stands between you and your twin flame is a layer of negative energy just waiting to be consumed by the joyous, bubbling action of the violet flame.

Your mission, your twin flame, and your ultimate reunion in the heart of God await you!
