When I first read this chapter for the first time, I was so completely touched by this story that since then I have re-read it many times over. Every time I am down or feel lost, I turn back to the pages on which these wonderful words are written, and somehow feel a sense of peace. And although I realize that it is just a mythical story, something in its simplicity and depth speaks to me. Maybe I am just a hopeless romantic, but I find this story so beautiful that I choose to believe it. Nobody will ever know for certain what the real story of the creation of life is, and how it all came about, so personally, why not choose something as touching and beautiful to believe as this particular myth… Read on, and see if this story will speak to you as well…
This is a continuation of Dylan (main character / famous actor) & Grace’s (wise woman / shaman) conversation from page 95 about God, and how it all begun.
{ Something inside obliged Crow to listen, even though the conversation was getting uncomfortable. “I may have a different point of reference about God and spirit than you, Grace, but I’m curious to hear anything you wish to share with me – either from your own observations or from your ethnic traditions.” He attempted to ensure conversational maneuverability in the event she directed any of her thoughts at him directly.
Grace stopped, picked up a small stick, strode to a fallow area of the garden, signaling him to draw near. ” I’d like to repeat a legend which has been handed down through many spiritual belief systems. If you don’t mind, it’s my nature to use the old oral story tradition to relay information.”
He nodded his consent.
In the dirt she drew a circle. “Let’s say this is God. This represents not some ‘guy,’ but the whole of God: All That Is. God had so much love that he could not contain it and wished to create something upon which to lavish his love; something that could reflect his beauty and perfection back to him. So, drawing divine energy and substance forth from his own heart, he created ‘The Other’. Some spiritual traditions call this the ‘Mother’”. She drew a second circle directly beside the first.
“The Mother,” she continued, “although a part of God, had taken so much of the quality of his heart that she had a vast, void space in her own heart capable of unlimited energy in motion. The Father now lacked the intensity of this ‘e-motion’. God could no longer experience some things without all of his heart and only when he merged with the Mother could he experience the fullness of his magnificent ecstasy in limitless creation. He could only experience the depths of e-motion vicariously through her.
“God the Father and God the Mother were so filed with Divine love that they wished to have another upon which to lavish this energy, something that would reflect their beauty and perfection back to them. In joining their two flames they believed their creation would have the Father’s pure light of intelligence and the Mother’s pure heart. When the new white fire body formed, the polarities of the feminine and masculine aspect were created, each having the same blueprint, so to speak. This blueprint is unique only to the two created thusly, though the Father/Mother God created them without number.
Grace drew a circle beneath the other two, drawing within the circle the sign of the oriental yin and yang. Connecting the three circles with equidistant lines, there now appeared a triangle: a trinity.
“So, the first children of God were created; half of which were filled with their father’s light and intelligence, while the other half possessed their mother’s heart. Yet, the seed of the positive male energy appeared, in the negative, and the seed of the negative female energy, in the positive.” She drew a distinct dot within each of the yin and yang halves. “These are the twin flames, Dylan – beings who must, in fact, join together to be complete and whole. They do not oppose, but are complementary, always fulfilling the Law of One: the Divine Whole. They unveil in flesh the faces of Alpha and Omega. You have, no doubt, heard them referred to by many names; Twin Flames, Soul Mates, Twin Souls, Split-Aparts, Divine Lovers, True Lovers, etc.
“The children lived with the Father/Mother God in unlimited experience, joy, and bliss for eons and eons of time.
“Then one day, a child of God asked the Mother why she was not as beautiful as the Father. She went to the Father and asked the same question. God the Father told God the Mother that if she would trust him in all things and promise to be obedient in all things, he could show her how to be as beautiful as he. Pensively she considered his comment. Finally, she replied, ‘How can I make a promise about something that I have yet to experience?’ From that day, the Mother chose to gain intelligence and beauty through experience. She began by lowering her frequency until her form became first gaseous, then liquid in nature – moving more and more into density.
“The Father loved the Mother, and called upon his servant the wind to bid him take a gift to the Mother for her sojourn. He wove a fabric of golden threads and made a sack that drew together at the top. God stuck his finger in the sack and filled the gold threads with his luminous substance and then withdrew his finger. He gave the sack to the wind to deliver to the Mother.
“The spirit of the Mother emerged from the liquid state and accepted the gift from the wind. When she opened the sack, millions of golden threads burst forth and spread across the water. These threads contained many of the children of God who wanted to experience intelligence first hand with the Mother.
“Those children who expressed a desire to descend were allowed to go by their own free will. Before they left their estate, however, the Father explained that the density experience would be an education of the soul based in duality consciousness. He also explained that the only way his children would not be tempted to rush back to his perfection would be by creating some sort of barrier or veil of forgetfulness. Lovingly, he assured them they would remember home and their true heritage if they connected with their hearts… }
What do you think? Does any of this hold true in your heart? If not, what theory do you believe in when it comes to the creation of life and love. Do you believe in the existence of Twin Flames? How do you define love between two human beings? What is it about people that makes us feel more connected to one over the other… Please share your thoughts if you feel like it – I love reading them.
