In Fornication is a Deep Seated Disobedience (114)

Introduction

In this post I would like to introduce to you a psychological and esoteric characteristic of fornication that is not commonly thought of as belonging to that ego.

Before I go any further with this post I think that I should spend a brief moment describing what we mean by fornication. In Gnosis, the word fornication is used to describe the act of expelling the sexual energy from the body, and I would like to say that specifically for men the sexual energy is the semen (or seminal entity) and the same applies for women, in that the sexual energy is something physical.


About Pleasure

We commonly think fornication is about pleasure or about a false attempt of possession or about submitting oneself or ingratiating oneself to another person or to a strange pleasure. This is how it looks at the surface, but if we are to look much deeper we will find a certain rebelliousness or a certain defiance or disobedience. The reasons for this are very clear.


Defiance, Disobedience and Rebelliousness

To the keen observer there is a very clear air or sense of disobedience in the ego or egos of fornication. It doesn’t seem like there is at first but there is. The reason why is because fornication is the means by which we err against our inner divinity, it is the means by which we spiritually, psychologically and physically fall and fail. Fornication may not be the cause of the fall, it could though be in some cases but in all the cases it is the vehicle or the instrument of the fall.

So when we have the ego of fornication developed it knows that it is ruining us and to keep itself doing what it does it has to be is in complete rebellion and defiance of the law and our Being. So deep in its nature, is pure rebellion and defiance, and even hatred against what is spiritual. So sometimes we may really dislike anything spiritual and this may come from the ‘I’ of fornication, believe it or not.


Boldness

The ego of fornication is very bold and daring and it gives it that force is that rebelliousness and daring to defy the law and the Being and to march on toward our ruin. It is a very stubborn ego, in that it has some marvellous forces trapped in it, that we really need to liberate so to use it for our realization. One of those forces is the rebellion and the drive toward freedom.

The ego of fornication wants freedom, it wants to do what it does freely without any restriction. So if we free that characteristic and use it for our realisation we will get it, because it is very powerful. Having the ego of fornication makes it impossible for us to get the self-realization because all our rebellious forces are going toward ruining ourselves and going against the law. Really the right place or direction for those forces to be channelled into, is against the ego and for or in line with the Being or the self-realisation.


Conclusion

Work on the ego of fornication, find the rebelliousness and work to change its direction from driving for free pleasure into the real freedom from the ego and from suffering.


End (114).
