"Every soul in this universe (the third universe) is actually only one half of a soul. When a soul begins its journey on Realm 4 stage 5, it splits into two: a male soul and a female soul. This original male and female soul must, eventually, reunite on Realm 7 Stage 9 to form the whole soul once again. These souls are known as Twin Souls."
-Khorshed Bhavnagri, The Laws of the Spirit World
'Twin flame' is a trending term these days on the internet. The Western world is more curious about it and taking an interest in it. There are experts who share methods and tools to guide twin flame couples on how to heal the relationship and come into union with each other. There are books available on this topic too, which are mostly authored by Western authors.
In India, though this concept is not very popular it is slowly gaining currency with many people claiming that they are in a twin flame journey.
According to Hindu texts, Lord Krishna and Goddess Radha are considered as one soul. In epics and folklore, it is mentioned that even though they lived in two bodies on earth, they were one since eternity. Except for this couple, no other gods and goddesses are considered as one. Their stories depict them as a married couple, as two individuals with different capacities and power, staying in godly union.
"So ancient is the desire of one another which is implanted in us, reuniting our original nature, seeking to make one of two, and to heal the state of man." -Plato, The Symposium
In The Symposium, Plato claims that human beings originally had two faces, four arms, and four legs. God split them into two under some law, and what we see today is just a half part of that original human. Hence, the belief pervades that the other half exists somewhere in this universe.
