More about Prana

Prana is Very Elevated

Prana is something very elevated and we can’t readily perceive it as it is, that is how it is within itself with our five senses. Though what we can perceive with our five senses is the prana that things have or radiate. For example, in the case of a rose, the smell of the rose and its beauty and the life that radiates from it are an expression of the prana contained in the rose. In short what we really perceive with our five senses is the prana that things have, so when it comes to perceiving prana with our five senses we can only perceive prana as it is in things that have or had life, that is in other human beings, plants, animals, rocks, food etc.

Prana can not be Perceived

As we have mentioned earlier, prana by itself can not be perceived as a solid physical substance, i.e. something that can be can be weighed, photographed or measured. All that we can do is to perceive prana when it undergoes certain modifications and subdivides itself. For example, when prana subdivides itself we can perceive and receive prana in a piece of bread, in grapes and in what we breathe.

Modified

Please note, that when prana is modified it becomes a very important substance which is called Akash or Akasa and later when Akash is modified it becomes Ether, and when the vibrations of ether called tattwas condense we have the four physical elements of physical nature.

Different Sources

Prana is also light, colour, heat and as Master Samael said, it is Universal Magnetism. The beauty and richness of a flower is due to prana and the beauty that a human being has is also due to prana. Prana also allows the human being to perceive images, it is the magical component or force that forms the images on our retina so that we can see.

There is an intense source of Prana in the sun and the sun radiates it out to all the planets in the solar system. It is the prana from the sun that really gives the abundance and richness of life that we can observe in all the four kingdoms of nature in a planet, especially our planet earth.

There is of course prana in the sexual energy and when we sublimate it a lot of prana is conserved and converted into ojas which is a subtler form of energy. This energy accumulates in the brain and is used for creative and spiritual development.

We also receive prana from the environment (a forest is rich in prana), from food, from water, from the sun and from the air. The prana that we received is stored in our chakras and later released by our chakras into the body. The yogis say that the places on the Earth that are richest in prana are locations high up in the mountains.

There is not much prana in the cities as there is an imbalance of electricity and magnetism, there is much more magnetism there in the cities than there is electricity, it is has been said that the noise and constant activity dissipates the electricity. In the country there is a better balance of magnetism and electricity and so there is more prana there.

Kundalini

Kundalini is also a variant of cosmic prana. Some yogis even say that kundalini is cosmic prana and they go on to say “The entire experience from creation to dissolution is embedded inside the folds of the kundalini. Cosmic prana and kundalini are synonymous terms. Awakening the kundalini one unites with the cosmic prana.”.

Feeds Our Essence

Prana is also something that feeds the essence. It is a food for the essence and it is something that crystallises in the essence though which we can use to fabricate soul.

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...
