A viewer asks: “In the Milarepa story, there was a primary character named “Zesay” who was to be Milarepa’s future wife, an arrangement made by their parents before Milarepa’s father died and their fortunes changed. The attraction for each other and compatibility of the two “was off the charts.” Zesay never married anyone else, even when it became clear that she and Milarepa would never marry. She was instrumental in helping Milarepa recover his physical strength during a critical time of his practice. Eventually, she, too, took up the “great work” herself in that lifetime and became a Tibetan Buddhist monk and an eventual enlightened saint in her own right who is recognized to this day. It closely parallels Mary Magdalene, who for all practical purposes, was the 13th disciple of Christ. Was Zesay Milarepa’s twin flame?”

This is not the case. This was a planned mission life for the both of them to find themselves together to join in common cause and work together as a team. This would at once solve the needs of the human part of them to have companionship, comfort, and a kind of soul mate who understands and accepts them on a deep level, and gives them grounding and experience with such things in order to help others in their struggle with relationships and raising families, and so on, but this was not a twin flame union. They were simply drawn to each other and highly dedicated to each other because there was a soul recognition it was meant to be and that was the basis of the attraction.
