Retrospection
A very important actually a key tool in any evaluation of
ourselves is the use of retrospection. The act of honestly looking back over
what we have lived. How we acted, how we felt and what we thought during the
events and times of our lives.
Retrospection can be done over an hour, a minute, a whole
day, a week or a month, a year or any time period. It is really the key part of
any evaluation.
Three Points
There are three points or questions that we can run through
or ask ourselves at the end of the day, for us to know how our day went and or
during the day, for us to know how our day is going and be able to improve it
or save it, if it is not going well.
Was I Useful to Others?
We are all here in life to be useful for others. If we were
all the time harmful to others, life and eventually creation would collapse. Life
requires that we co-operate and live peacefully together and really it is one reason
for us being here and it is also a life purpose.
All the things that we could do in life are come back in the
end to the question, are they useful or good for others. The goals, that are
noble and pure have at their heart the benefit of others.
If we have been useful to others during the day we have
fulfilled a mini part of the purpose our life and we have not created karma for
ourselves but rather dharma or cosmic capital as it is called in the Gnostic
studies.
Besides the advantages mentioned above helping others brings
us great peace and fulfillment inside ourselves.
Was I Useful to the Great Cause?
Being useful tot eh Great Cause is to work in the third
factor, which is the efforts to teach, help, guide and inform humanity about
the knowledge of Gnosis and help them to understand it and inspire to work
towards their Being.
So in effect it comes down to the question: “Did I do something
today that will benefit the self-realisation of some or at least one Monad.
As a Gnostic missionary we are those that work on the great
cause and we really have the duty of helping the Sun receive as many souls as
it can who are ready for the in trying to keep the planet as it is going now.
Was I useful to my Being Today?
Did I die and awaken today? That is really how we are useful
to our Being. So did I make an effort to die in any defect? Did I chant the
mantram KRIM and ask the Divine Mother to dissolve one or another defect? Did I
self-remember or remember the Being as work toward my awakening?
Transmuting is also vital to being useful to our Being.
Because with transmutation we are fulfilling the Parlock duty of the Being
which is to create the bodies (astral, mental and causal). Transmuting helps
the Being in His creation and self-realization and that helps Him to fulfil his
cosmic mission and therefore brings Him into good terms with the Divine Law. Which
has the marvellous side effect of bringing us peace and happiness while our karmic debts are
being processed with our work of mystical death and paying karma.
End.
