Trust

Introduction

Trust is an immense remedy to a situation where we feel insecure.

Trust calls upon the memory of the past actions of others. It sees that the other person really helped us and sincerely liked us, and as nothing has changed, trust says that that person still likes us very much and things will go along very well and so then, why to feel insecure and to fear that that person’s love or friendship will disappear.

Trust that Love Remains

It is not going to disappear. It will remain, if it has lasted for so long already why should it disappear just now. Thinking this and then feeling it is the key. Feeling it is the trust, and we feel it when we actually believe it. Then our fear and feelings of insecurity go away.

When we don’t find any reason for us to doubt, trust wins and our fear dissipates.

Difficult Situations

However there are situations when it is difficult to trust because the person is very erratic and unpredictable and you never know where you will end up with that person. So then what do you do? We in fact trust that they will be unpredictable again. So trusting is not going to work but we have to then trust in time and in their work and goodness as a person for the right and good in them to prevail.

Alternative when Trust in Others Fails

There is another alternative and that is to trust inside of ourselves and in our interior Divinity that we can evoke the wisdom, strength and light to be able to overcome these feelings and end up feeling alright.

Conclusion

Either way trust is a tremendous antidote to situations where we feel fear and we are unsure, uncertain and insecure.

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...
