Two people enter a darkened room. They each hold a red candle in their right hand and a match with a lighting strip in their left hand. They sit down on two stools facing each other in an oval cone of light. After ten breaths, they light each other's candles. They hold their candles horizontally, support each other with their hands and look at each other. Wax drips onto their laps. The two people hold the candles until the burning wick almost touches their hands. Now the two candles merge into one object. As soon as the resulting smoke is no longer visible, they place the object between the stools on the floor and leave the room.
