Tritocosmos

In the Gnostic study of the order of the cosmos the last order of creation is the tritocosmos or the inferior regions of nature, also called the abyss or the inferno or in Christian terms: Hell.

Orders of Worlds

According to Gnosis the worlds or levels of creation or the levels of the cosmos are organised into a series of worlds that overlap and have originally unfolded from within the Absolute.

So just taking up the level of creation of galaxies, our galaxy (the galaxy we belong to) which is the Milky Way, then there is the Solar System (Ors), then the planets, then the human being and then the tritocosmos which following the pattern of each world being inside the other (e.g. the planets inside the solar system and the solar system is inside the galaxy etc.), the tritocosmos is inside the human being.

Abyss or Atomic Infernos and the Inferior Regions of Planet Earth

This is true that we have an abyss inside of us and amazingly enough there is also a correlation with this inferno or tritocosmos inside us and the inferno or inferior region of the planet in which we belong to or are a part of – Earth.

This is because we are a part of the planet, we are an organ of the planet, and we are connected to it.

Psychological States and the Tritocosmos

The abyss is inside of ourselves and often our egos take us there through identification and we experience or live out of our own abyss and at the same time we are also connected to the abyss of the planet. So in some ways with ego identification we live here physically (our body) but psychologically we live in the abyss! Terrifying! That is why we do such crazy things at times.

The psychological states that we experience due to identification with one or another ego is the same that we can feel or experience in the abyss of the nature or the planet Earth.

So what Dante describe in the first part (“Inferno”) of his trilogy called the Divine Comedy are spot on. The suffering that the souls undergo and experience in the various regions of the abyss or inferno of the planet earth are what we experience in our own abyss when we get identified with the ego or egos that take us down there.

Conclusion

The only way to escape our own abyss and the abyss of nature is dissolve the elements that bring us down there or connect us to those two abysses.

To escape though we have to descend into our own abyss and the abyss of nature to take the light and wisdom from there and then use that light to dissolve the ego. The key is to know when to withdraw from the abyss, staying there to long is dangerous.

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...
