Transcendent Love
In this category, we find two possibilities: The Guru/Student relationship and the Twin Flame.

Guru/Student
Guru/Student associations have been around for thousands of years. In the purest sense, they are holy. They focus on the spiritual development of the student, which is how these unions are traditionally understood. The guru, however, grows too. Here you can experience astral phenomena and even higher-dimensional events (higher than the astral plane). Unlike Enchantment though, these experiences are uplifting, evolutionary, and illuminating.

Whether intimacy enters the picture depends on the spiritual discipline being practiced and other factors. The guru and the student are often Soul Mates.

Twin Flames
Twin Flames are perhaps the most sacred and, philosophically, the most controversial. I've read a dozen different opinions about what they are. In this model, they reflect the underlying oneness of the universe. Before I explain this relationship though, we should first explore its metaphysical framework.

Spiritually, at the highest level of Creation, everything is one: it's all one thing. Even science supports the "All One Thing" theory, which gives it real-life credibility. Although we are all one, the separation of forms is obvious to our senses: that you and I exist as individuals is undeniable. Some call this separation an illusion, which it might be; yet, everyone experiences it, so we could just as well call it reality.

In any event, if "it" is really "all one thing," then at some point it must have divided itself into the zillion different forms we see — you, trees, the sun, and the seas. The process of dividing itself apparently happened in steps over billions of years. For instance, at first it split into two, and then went from two to fifty, then from fifty to a million — or however it works. Forms evolve and diversify. The universe becomes more complex as time passes.

At some point in the time line, a spiritual entity projects its consciousness into a physical body. Loosely, it's like a ventriloquist throwing his voice into a puppet. Most religions call this projection a "soul," which is a form of consciousness. We are spirits — higher-dimensional beings — experiencing third-dimensional reality in a human body. If all this were true, what would prevent a spirit from projecting its consciousness into more than one body during the same period?

When a spirit decides to project its consciousness into two bodies, they could meet and form a relationship. They would be Twin Flames. The partners could have totally different backgrounds and personalities; yet, something inside them would find the deepest resonance and irresistible longing for each other. Twin Flames represent the purest intimate relationship — organic and natural — and it gives them the opportunity to experience unconditional love.

Both the Guru/Student and Twin Flames unions have profound, evolutionary effects on those involved. They differ from other relationships in their depth, degree of surrender, and level of honesty and openness. This is lose-your-mind crazy love.

CONCLUSION
Every level of relationship has something to offer. We can learn from them all. It's doubtful that we can summons a Sublime relationship into existence by our personal will: These are inscribed in the Book of Destiny. Perhaps the best we can do is to behave as well as possible in whatever relationship we are in. If the relationship is satisfying, then who needs to change? If we are not satisfied, then we can remember that change is the one constant in the universe. If we are ready, the next step will appear.
