Repentance


Repentance is something extraordinarily important when it comes to the question of dissolving the ego, or using other terms correcting our errors or dissolving the causes inside of us that make us to make all kinds of mistakes and errors or lead us to sin (to use the Christian terminology for errors).

A State of Consciousness

Repentance is a more than anything else a state of consciousness. It is one that appears in us for a short time only. When we feel repentance we are able to see with our consciousness the full gravity of our errors, or in other words we are able to see the harm and the error that is in the “I”. We may feel shame for having acted with this ego and shame or actually having this ego.

When the consciousness is actively repenting there is light and profound comprehension of “I” or our errors. The consciousness produces a movement inside of one that moves us away from the “I” and can be powerful enough to allow produce in our consciousness and psychology the ability to not identify or act with this ego again.

Duration of

It is a very powerful state that often is accompanied with conscious suffering and pain and does not as mentioned before does not last very long. It tends to last for duration that is needed for the consciousness to realise the reality of the “I” and its errors. If it were actually to last longer the human being would be in trouble. No human being could stand a continuous prolonged state of repentance because it would be too painful.

Precursors: Separation and Comprehension

Before repentance can appear we need to have a degree of separation and a degree of comprehension. Actually separation is an aspect of comprehension. Separation also is a state of consciousness where we see that or rather we know that the problem is really the ego in us and that we are not the ego. The ego or “I” is something separate to us. We fully understand in relation to that ego that we are the essence and it is an ego or “I” that we have to dissolve.

With comprehension we come to understand the specifics about eh role and function of that ego and we see how we don’t need it in our life and that we can solve situations in life by another means and not by using this ego. We may even also come to comprehend that the ego is a wrong functioning of one of our Being’s particular functions.

If we have processed some of the above with our consciousness we have prepared our conscious one day to process (experience) repentance in relation to one ego that we have understood or even in relation to the complete myself or the complete egoical structure that we have.

Repentance and Forgiveness

Repentance and forgiveness go hand and hand. Once we repent we can be pardoned or forgiven. When we repent when we feel repentance then we can ask for forgiveness from our Intimate Christ and from our Divine Mother.

When repentance appears in us we naturally will ask for forgiveness. Because the consciousness will be present and the consciousness is not pride, so it won’t resent others being above us while we are below them, and we are the ones that have made such grave mistakes.

Kundry from Parsifal Unveiled - (3948)

The character Kundry is very unusual, and has a mysterious role in Wagner's opera: Parsifal. As master Samael explains, Kundry represents the archetype of the feminine. That mysterious yet extraordinarily powerful force that can raise a man to the heights of realisation or sink him into the abyss of failure.  Kundry in the opera takes on a few different opposing roles, one where she is the temptress that seduced the king of the Holy Grail: King Amfortas giving Klingsor the opportunity to steal the Lance of Longinus and wound his side. She then helps the wounded king searching for balms to heal the wound in his side, then she is again the temptress that tries to seduce Parsifal the young knight who tries to redeem the lost lance. When Parsifal is victorious destroying the castle of Klingsor Kundry changes roles to become a servant of the holy grail and the knights of the order of the holy grail. These are all aspects of the powerful feminine force that is varied and has many differe...

What is the Kundabuffer or Kundartiguador? - (405)

Introduction Gurdjieff and Master Samael spoke much about the Kundabuffer organ and a lot of what Master Samael said is pretty clear. This post is just about going over some of what he said. In the Quinto Evangelio, Master Samael also revealed many more details which do not appear in his books. Note, the Qunito Evangelio is a two tome compilation of transcriptions of many recordings of informal talks that Master Samael had with his students. English and Spanish Terms There are these two terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer which refer to the same thing. Kundartiguador is Spanish and Kundabuffer is English. I believe it was Gurdjieff who first introduced these terms in his book “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson”. I believe “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson” was not originally written in ether Spanish or English. So these terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer are translations where the word “Kunda” could not be translated and the ending "buffer" could b...

When We Speak Bad About Ourselves - Because of Self-Compassion - (2963)

Even Just Thinking Negative When we just even think, let alone speak about ourselves in a negative way, thinking things like: how we are really this and that bad and that is not at all what others see, that we are in capable, worth little, know nothing, can't do this and that, fail at this and that, a liar, a dreamer the list goes on... We can be 100% sure that self-compassion is behind this because pride by itself would never allow this.  In a case like this self-compassion taps into what pride hides from itself and others and exposes it. Feeling that it is doing job at ruining ourselves. Why It Does What It Does? Self-compassion does this sort of thing to avoid reprimand and to extract compassion from others. Self-compassion is about getting compassion for ourselves through others. It is set-up in relativity, using others as a reference point. Really the best thing that you can do for a person who is pitted against this ego is to ignore them, so that they can fa...
