One candle is burning towards the end of its life, the other is new and unused, the flame from the old is used to light the new, they continue to be separate candles but the flame of the new came into being from the flame of the old.

My understanding to what you said, the candle is in shape. But other can't wrongly jump to an interpretation of gas or small elements. That's ordinary mind perception or imagination.
