The Power of the Internal Word! (262)

Introduction


We need to use the power of our internal word to battle the ego, especially when it is in our subconscious and it manifests strongly urging us to act.



Fights with the Ego

When the ego really comes up strong in us and wants to manifest to get what it wants, we can either just allow it and go with it or we can chose a different way, the way of the work and the Being, which will may well lead us into direct conflict with the ego.


Reason Makes the Internal Word Powerful

In that case we need a way to fight the ego, we need a weapon. When we have reasons not to go with the ego we have a weapon, but it is one thing to have a weapon and entirely different thing is to know how to use the weapon. This post is about using eh weapon of the internal word, which is no more than our powerful reasons.

The internal word would be useless if the reasons we have to not go with the ego were weak. The more powerful are our reasons the more power our internal word has.


Ego in the Subconscious

When the ego is rooted in our subconscious we need to apply this key of using the power of our internal word. This key works quite well in these cases.

When the ego is rooted in the subconscious it is powerful because we do not fully know why the ego wants what it wants and we don’t clearly see reasons why it wants what it wants and further why we should not go with it.


Ego Attacks

When the ego attacks we need to counteract it verbalising internally as if they were a mantra our very good reasons not to go with the ego. Verbalising and understanding the truths we have previously discovered about the ego and what it wants to do.

Counteract the logic of the ego with these reasons, until they lose force and the force of those reasons become the dominant force in you, this for now subduing the ego.

When the ego next attacks we have to use our internal word once again to defeat it once again and so on and so until the ego remains known, comprehended, discovered and without it hypnotic power.


Conclusion

Use the power of your internal word when the ego attacks. The power of your internal word is in the truth of your comprehension, understanding and knowledge of that ego. Repeat your reasons and discovered truths over and over again in your mind until the attack of the ego subsides.

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...
