In Sexuality is Our Degree of Connecting or Disconnecting (237)

Origin of the Word Sex

The word sex is thought to come from the Latin word ‘seccare’ which means to cut or to divide or in other words disconnect. The words: section, dissect, bisect, sect, sectarianism etc. all show this common meaning.

Some say that the word sex comes from the Latin ‘sexus’ which the state of gender, i.e. that of being either male or female. However, the origin ‘seccare’ is much more interesting and descriptive of eh true nature of sexuality.

Degree of Connecting or Disconnecting

In sexuality we find our capacity or ability to connect or disconnect to something. In other words with sexuality we can connect to something and by duality also disconnect from something. Sexuality has that amazing duality where it can free or enslave, heal or harm or regenerate or degenerate.

Sexuality is at the Base of Life

We are always connecting and disconnecting in life and so our life is always sexual. Any type of union implies sexuality. Normally we think of sexuality as being the intimate physical man and woman union but that limits totally our vision of sexuality.

Conclusion

We need to expand our vision of sexuality and that will honestly help us in many senses to see the true nature of sexuality and to also change our view of sexuality for the better. The more positive we start to see sexuality the more we can change our sexuality and also dissolve lust.

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...
