The Ego is in our Genes (132)

Surprising at First but Makes Sense!

To someone who has worked on the ego for a while, this statement that the ego is in our genes becomes ever-so gradually more apparent, especially in relation to some egos. It is not so apparent in all the egos but in some, in the rather large ones that we have it can be quite apparent.


Parents

If you have the luck of having your parents still with you, you can by observation really come to verify this statement.

The theory goes in Gnosis that the egos that we have, have a genetic component to them. We actually inherit in our egos certain characteristics that are present in the egos of our parents. This is even true when it comes to our personality. Our personality has many traits or characteristics that come directly from our parents.
This does not apply to every characteristic in us, it only seems to apply to some of our personality traits. Mind you environment and impressions builds our personality and much of our environment that we are brought up in, is strongly coloured by our parent’s personality and egos.


Some Egos

It can happen that some of the egos we have, repeat or strongly wish to repeat the dramas and mistakes that our parents have made. In a way the more we know about the egos of our parents the more we can get to know the future desires of the egos that we have. Mind you, this does not apply to every ego that we have, only very particular ones, such as lust, anger, pride, self-love etc.


Conclusion

In our genes are the genes are of our parents and in our genes are certain characteristics that are also in our egos. By careful observation of our egos and the egos of our parents we can verify this, by noting the similarities between their egos and ours.

So then, our Divine Mother has a great work to do when we work in the elimination of eh ego, she has to work within our genes to eliminate the ego from within our genes. So then in conclusion, the work of the dissolution of the ego modifies our genetic structure and therefore our very own biology.


End (132).

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...
