When a person encounters
their twin soul, it is as if eternity has opened up and on a deeper level there
is the recognition of belonging to the other.
The Lovers are in love with the other’s true self. This mirroring back to each other is
essential for cultivating the seed necessary for union; through the death of
the ego.
A connection is first
established in the instant of the eyes meeting the other’s eyes. Through this intense magnetism a tunnel is
created from the heart of one to the heart of the other. They can live thousands of miles apart and
still maintain the nourishment of the energy between them.
One knows the tunnel is
activated by words that are felt. For
example, a song can play on the radio and all of a sudden your hair stands up
on end and the lover comes to mind. It’s
as if the Universe is speaking to you the language of love. Also, the dream world is a place where the
lovers often meet to convey feelings and thoughts to each other. Confucius describes the inner connection as,
“my heart in sympathy with yours.”
This inner connection
feels like they share a destiny together.
There is much adjustment in the beginning brought on by fear, doubt, and
hesitation. One feels madness that one
has gone completely insane. For both to succeed, the ego must die and the ‘true
self’ must emerge and take over the direction of their lives.
When the Lovers have moved
past humanly desires and the ego is no longer present, union is possible. Only by observing chastity are the Lovers
able to guide the sexual energy between them inward, which then makes a way
upward, thereby transcending reality and merging with the other (the Beloved)
in pure ecstasy. During this blissful
state, they are swallowed up into a larger awareness. The Lovers emerge with new eyes to see the world.
The I Ching says, “Their
approach towards each other has come from a high place.” If the Lovers trust this love and bind
themselves to God, Creator, Christ, etc., then they can enrich the lives of the
people around them. They know sincerity,
patience, and faith adds growth to the others true self and this free flowing energy extends to others.
Hafiz says, “Loving is the
greatest freedom and fulfillment, so the wise, being wise, cash in on
that.” Loving wisely is allowing your
feelings for the other to mature gradually by observing chastity. Alchemy takes place when there is a longing
for the eternal Beloved. The virtues of
chastity unveils God’s secret, revealing the Beloved in all His splendor.
The Lovers learn about the
power of their love through their interactions with each other on the invisible
level. Their trust becomes so strong
that they know what the other is feeling at all times. When they recognize their mutual destiny
together, the love between them will grow and bloom.
Love is the energy that
holds the Cosmos together. It comes
through the Lovers and is their source.
It is a gift that frees them from their ego and awakens the divine
within. Learning to love in this new way
takes humility, patience, and tenderness.
Developing this type of love, one must become entirely dependent on God. The Lovers path is knowing God through his
beautiful creation. A pure heart sees the death of the ego as a bridge he or
she must cross to reach the eternal Beloved.
