Our Sexuality is Sadly Outside of Ourselves (238)

Introduction

Our sexuality is totally outside of ourselves. We need to take it back for ourselves.

This is actually quite grave and is the cause of much of our problems. I say this because when our sexuality is constantly going outside of ourselves we recognise that sex is very powerful and we become driven by it, that it is we are powerfully driven to experience its sensation and take its impulses to their conclusion. We can do crazy things in order to fulfil these sexual impulses.

When our sexuality is inside of us we recognise in sex an amazing power that is ours that we can use to become powerful in life but more importantly use to die within ourselves and to awaken.


Starts and Ends with Us

Our sexuality starts and ends with us. This is hard to understand when our sexuality is outside of ourselves. We feel that we need another human being so much - but do we? Maybe our mind and emotion believes we do but I don’t know how much sexually. Well definitely our sexual energy does not because it either stays inside of us when we transmute or it goes out when we lose it and outside it is not for anyone.

Anyhow this statement means that our sexuality is already complete, meaning with or without a woman if we are a man, or with or without a man if we are woman we are still complete and sex is our power just like our blood is ours. We don’t need anyone for us to feel that as a body we are not complete. It is just something of our mind because we know that our sexual system fulfils one of its functions with another human being so our mind thinks we need someone.

If we look at a couple we will see sex is only for a very small percentage of time during the day if we take the day in the life of a couple as an example. So what about the huge other percentage of the time of the day? We are by ourselves right!


Conclusion

Basically your sexual energy is yours and you do not need someone else to feel complete or satisfied. But for a creation within yourself or outside yourself you need it though, but that is different to feeling a need to be complete or fulfilled or a certain dependence.


End (238).

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...
