In “Prometheus” Kairissi and Elenchus discussed how each love affair, in certain respects, is the same, yet, from another perspective, each love affair is quite different. What they didn’t know at the time, however, is that this latter uniqueness is the dominant element.

Kairissi. The author has asked for our thoughts concerning how Jiddu’s concept of “uniqueness” plays out in the area of love and romance - the implications for Twin Souls.

Elenchus. This is not an easy assignment.

K. Well, let’s just relax and allow a small measure of “the answer” to come to us.

E. (sighing)

K. Time’s up.

E. Right. One thing comes to mind. We’ve heard that enlightenment is enhanced by deep breathing. I’m not as certain anymore.

K. Are you saying that deep breathing is not helpful?

E. I’m not sure. Jiddu throws it all up in the air; as he says, there’s no pat formula. Here’s what I’ve experienced. I’m not saying that deep breathing can’t be helpful in noticing the energy flows of the body, or even to momentarily break the non-stop “chattering in the head.” But I’ve witnessed in myself that it’s not the breathing that does the trick. All that’s really needed is to just “put on the brakes” for the mind, enter silence, and feel the quietness of inner body. And you can do this without taking a deep breath.

K. Ok, so this would be an example of a “technique” that’s not really needed.

E. I think so.

K. This raises the question, what else do we believe as required to advance ourselves but, in fact, is not needed at all?

E. As we go within, it seems, we discover "what’s real" and truly necessary.

K. Does this vary from person to person?

E. In a sense, yes. For some people, deep breathing doesn’t work; for others, it works for a time, then the benefit goes away.

K. It seems that Whatever is teaching us might be constantly modifying its lesson plan.

E. I think that’s correct.

K. What can we say about this “uniqueness” in reference to true romantic love?

E. There’s an old song by Anne Murray, “What would it take?” She's wishing that she could make someone love her.

K. “If words won't do it, and words are just a waste of time, we could get right to it, if I could only read your mind." And then she says, “You’re just a mystery to me, deeper than the deep blue sea, there must be something that can move your heart, tell me just where to start.”

E. I’m glad you never felt that way.

K. Uh-huh.

E. Her song is a good example of “you can’t give enlightenment to another,” even if that other, as you might sense, is your destined mate. The soul won’t be hurried. It has its own timetable for action.

K. Elenchus, there’s another aspect to “uniqueness” I'm thinking of. Are we certain that everyone has a Twin mate?

E. Well, that’s an interesting question. We’ve quoted some ancient Spirit Guides who say yes to this. However, does anyone really know?

K. Maybe there are individuals who can access “the joy” on a solo basis.

E. I suppose it could be possible.

K. And then there are the “gay” couples who will probably comprise quite a high percentage of future love matches.

E. I think what we’re saying is, we need to be more cautious with using “all” when you should be saying “some.”

K. Or even, “We don’t really know.”

E. It seems that most people are “straight” concerning love; which would lend credence to an assumption that a majority of future Twin couples will be traditional “male and female.”

K. That makes sense to me, too; however, after considering Jiddu’s teaching, I’m seeing that the future lives of Twins might be expressed variously.

E. Not all yellow pencils in a row.

K. This could mean different lifestyles, different definitions of happiness, different concepts of progress and evolvement.

E. This subject is open-ended…

K. … because the essence of God is open-ended.

E. And so it’s really hard to make any sort of definitive statement.

K. What we say here is part of the “Omega” book – whose premise suggests that Twin love is a zenith for humankind.

E. I still believe that’s a true statement. It seems correct that, for the majority, this is how it will work out. However, the real issue is, what's required to experience consummate joy?

K. We need this in order to “survive the terror of living forever.”

E. And if that’s true, and I think it is, Twin love is probably the best way to access “the joy.”

K. I would suggest that Jiddu’s main contribution here is not that we can never be certain of anything, but to keep all of us from becoming too narrow, so dead-sure of ourselves that we have “the answer.”

E. In the final analysis, we can, eventually, by going within, find “the answer” meant for ourselves; but when it comes to making grand sweeping statements about “how it needs to be” for others, we would do well to remember that God, the summation of all quantum possibility, cannot be so easily tethered and corralled, limited to simple definition.
