Discerning Right from Wrong (234)

Introduction

This is such an important skill in life and in the path. It seems that we are always learning about what is right and what is wrong and when we have made a mistake it is mostly because we didn’t know that it was wrong or would bring harmful or inconvenient consequences.

We really have to have a way to work out if something is wrong or right if our intuition or consciousness or conscience is not telling or even hinting at anything.

How to Discern Right from Wrong

What I am going to do here is give you a system or a technique that will help to discern right from wrong.

Basically the technique is based on the wisdom that “every tree is known by its fruit”. In other words something that is wrong is known by its end result or consequences.

So to know right from wrong we have to project into the future to see the consequences and end results.

Key – Look for the End Results!

So here is the key, if you want to know whether something is wrong or right use cause and effect to see the chain of events that will unfold and then gauge whether these events will be convenient for you and for others.

If you want to know if a thought is right or wrong do the same, see how the thought becomes an emotion and how the emotion becomes and action and the action generates events and circumstances and reactions and more actions and so on and so on. Will they be convenient for you and others?

Conclusion

Apply these key whenever you are in doubt, that is whenever your conscience or intuition or consciousness is not speaking to you loud or clear or is not even giving the slightest hint.

Well if you get it wrong then you know already for next time and tell as many other people as you can so that they know as well.

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...
