Lust has to Die One Day (129)

Whatever has a Beginning has an End

There is a principle in Gnosis that says whatever has a beginning also has an end. So any ego or any sort of creation will have an end one day, because it had a beginning at some point.

This is why the ego of lust we have will have an end one day, either due to our voluntary efforts or the result of the efforts of nature working involuntarily on us.

It is important to say here that the Being in us, the divine, immortal and universal presence has never had a beginning and so will never have and end. You as a spiritual Being or as a soul cannot be lost! But your egos which are creations, wrong ones at that will one day be dissolved and have their end.


Its Days are Limited

As with any ego, lust is limited, its days are numbered, one day somehow it is going to cease, it is going to disappear, it is going to weaken and die. This is a certain truth. The only thing is that that may take a long time, longer than the duration of our life.

But as your body weakens the ego of lust will recede from the body as there is less and less energy for it to sabotage and use for its purposes. It most likely will live on in our minds.


Old Age

As our body gets older the ego of lust tries desperately to get its last sensations before it will no longer be able to too. So in the person getting somewhat older the ego of lust can be strong and impel the person to not act their age. This type of behaviour where an aging lady dresses with a mini skirt and high boots or an aging man buys a sports car and dresses up going to bars, pubs and clubs etc.is produced by the ego of lust, in a last ditch attempt to enjoy some sexual type of sensations before it is too late and it will no longer be able to.


The Path or Spirituality

Let’s be frank here, we can’t really walk a spiritual path while having lust. We have to eliminate it one day for us to be able to progress on a spiritual path. If we don’t eliminate it one day and we continue to walk on a spiritual path it will cause us a lot of grief, guaranteed. It has to be weakened in proportion to the amount in which we walk or progress on the spiritual path.

It will die one day by our own hand or by nature’s that is for sure. In fact, lust has to die one day all because we actually don’t need it. The problem is always we don’t want to eliminate it and we think that we need it.


Why Not Dissolve it Now?

If lust is going to die one day by the hand of nature or we are going to have to eliminate it because we are not going to leave the spiritual path, then why not go and eliminate it now, that is why not start working on eliminating it right here and now.


Conclusion

Let’s work on lust to dissolve it, why not do this work now, make the efforts to dissolve it now. We have to transmute and we have to detach from the mental cravings which is really lust and which direct the sexual energy into lustful activities.

If this post does not really make sense to you or it does make sense but it does not make you anymore powerful or inspired to dissolve lust reread it several times and think about it deeply trying to understand this truth at a deeper level within you. When we understand something we act upon what we understand.


End (129).

Attention with Mind, Attention with Essence - (5197)

These two attentions are different. Attention with the mind tires the brain. and reduces the flow of life into steps, where it is inevitable that the narration of the mind begins to take over. With the awareness of steps comes a certain tediousness and the feeling of the flow of life leaving us behind. With the attention of mind very little of what's behind events comes to us... Attention with the essence brings the power of presence, in other words brings a certain depth and continuity of flow  Attention with the essence doesn't tire or strain and opens doorways into perceiving what is behind events and the thoughts and feelings that appear within us. It allows us also to flow with the flow of life, which is a pleasant feeling. Conclusion, make the essence bring attention to outer and inner life. End (5197).

The Sacred Substance Askokin - (962)

Introduction In simple terms, the sacred Askokin substance is the result of the mercury and the sulphur. It is the transmuted energy that crystallises to form the internal bodies (astral, mental and causal). In other words, it is the transmutation of our sexual energies. The Abrustdonis’ and ‘Helkdonis that Gurdjieff mentions in the excerpt below, taken from “Belzeebub’s Tales to His Grandson” are none other than the elements of mercury and the sulphur so spoken about in Alchemy. Excerpt on the Sacred Substance Askokin “I first learned that the destiny of beings arising on this planet of yours is chiefly to elaborate—by means of the process of their existence—the vibrations required by Nature for the maintenance of those former parts of the planet now called Moon and Anulios, when, do you remember, I became worthy personally to converse for the second time with His Conformity the then still Angel, but now Archan...

Wisdom from the Movie “Kingdom of Heaven” - (2168)

Introduction There are some movies that leave you with some pieces of advice that at point or another in your life or in the lives of others prove useful. This movie: “Kingdom of Heaven” was terrible to watch (too many battle scenes and people dying) but offered some very useful messages. In this post, I have presented a few, that have come in handy at point or another. Just to give you a bit of context, the movie is about the crusades, where the French and English were trying to defend the “Holy City” – Jerusalem from Islamic occupation. The topic of religion and God is a constant theme in the movie. It is very violent though, matching it frankly, quite awful to watch. Your Soul is in Your Keeping Alone An interesting dialogue between the French appointed king of Jerusalem and French Knight, the protagonist of the movie. Note, the king wears that metal mask because he has leprosy. King Baldwin I...
