quotEnsemble #21 On Love and The Myth of Twin Flame❤
“There is a mythical story in Plato’s Symposium.
Originally, humans existed as bisexual creatures with two sets of arms, legs, and sexual organs. But the power of these bisexual creatures was so great that the gods feared a usurpation of the prerogatives of heaven.Therefore, Zeus cut the creatures into two.
Thereafter, the divided humans forever sought their missing halves.
This story metaphorically captures the unconscious drive we have to make the unconscious archetypes of anima or animus conscious so that we can become whole.
But the unconscious drive is not only instinctual, it is also Freud’s Eros of the personal unconscious. Eros is augmented by creativity from the collective unconscious.”
Amit Goswami, theoretical physicist in “The Self-Aware Universe - how consciousness creates the material world”
“The ideal of becoming addicted to people and/or their energies can seriously halt your spiritual development.
The most common instance is if one spontaneously “falls in love/lust”. This addiction stems from missing the complimentary trait that we need or think we need.
The opposite sex gives us access to the energy we lack due to our own non-integration of our spiritual side.
In so doing this, we disconnect them and ourselves from the Universe.
If an addiction is realized then one must work on getting the energy from the Universe as a whole and not other individuals.
(…) We have to remember Energy is both male and female and automatically compensates for what we need. Do you see the complimentary beauty in this balance?
Stabilizing energy is important. In the spiritual scheme of things you will undoubtedly attract higher relationships that will not pull you from your individual evolution.
Each person you meet has the potential to uplift your spiritual knowledge and likewise, you may aid others in their spiritual journey.
Synchronistic energies will happen. How wonderful is that?!”
Virtuous attractions
In moments of lessness
Perhaps I shall remember
Virtuous attraction
Embody characteristics I wish to attract
When I am feeling incomplete
Which quality of my vision
Could I embody next?
