(6:55) - Twin Flames Universe

Jeff Ayan met Megan Plante online in 2012. The couple had similar interests and were both interested in spirituality. Megan was studying under a spiritual guide at the time, and that person advised her that her spiritual name should be Shaleia. Megan has gone by that name ever since.

Jeff and Shaleia moved in together and soon began to form ‘Twin Flames Universe’.

A Twin Flame is a term that has been used to describe two people who are equals. Twin Flames are meant to push the other in their journey of self-discovery.

Jeff and Shaleia have allegedly urged their followers to pursue their twin flame matches, regardless of the law. Some of their followers have been told to ignore restraining orders in order to match with their flame.

Twin Flames Universe followers sometimes pay thousands of dollars for information from Jeff and Shaleia. One former devotee even had to declare bankruptcy after spending all of her money and up to ten hours per day studying Jeff and Shaleia’s teachings. Vanity Fair journalist Alice Hines described the classes as “a therapeutic-spiritual reality show”.

Is Twin Flames Universe a cult? Jeff has denied that is it. He told VICE “We created an organization of love and harmony which heals and enriches everyone in it and everyone who is connected to anyone in it.”

In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss Twin Flames Universe.
