Commitments of the Ego or ‘I’

Commitments or Plans

Most of the egos or “I’s” that we have, have their plans or commitments. We know some of them and some of them we don’t know.


Plans/Commitments of the ‘I’ we Know

The plans that we do know are the ones that being identified with the ego or by being a willing accomplice of the desires of the ego we with develop in our mind, using the imagination, the information that we have and the reasoning of the mind.


Plans/Commitments of the ‘I’ that we don’t Know

There are other plans or commitments that we don’t know about and they are the difficult ones to deal with as they catch us off guard and most of the time we only know about them after we have fallen victim to those plans.

This only happens if the ego is very large and relatively unknown or unobserved by us. Master Samael said that the ego has secret commitments and that those commitments are fulfilled under the level of our conscious awareness. The egos to fulfil their commitments use telepathy to arrange the various recurrences that are used to fulfil these commitments.


Don’t Create the Plan

To help ourselves in the death of the ego we are working a very good thing is to not create these plans or commitments. Observe and become aware that the ‘I’ wants to use your mind to create a plan or commitment to fulfil an idea or desire, but then just let that go. Don’t allow yourself to think or better said don’t allow your mind to be used to create the plan.


To Die Psychologically we have to Release the Plan

We can’t die in any ego if it is there making new plans and commitments. The fact that it makes plans and commitments is a very sure sign that, that ego is very well and alive. A person for example that is giving up life or in other words a person who is dying does not make plans for tomorrow or the next day or the next. So it should be with regards to the case of the ego when it is dying.


Conclusion

Stop New Plans

Stop the egos that we know from planning and creating new commitments, but if a plan has been made then become aware of it and release it.

Don’t Release Equals Stagnation

If we don’t release the plans that we have made with the ego, we will stagnate. The plans keep the ego alive and full of hope. As we know hope is a powerful force so the ego’s plans keep it strong and ever-present in our human machine.

Decisive Step Toward Death

So if we can neutralise the hope of the ego and release its plans we are moving ahead in its dissolution Toward the death of the ego this is a very decisive step indeed.


End.

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...
