Why do we Cry When Dissolving the Ego? (242)

Introduction

Generally dissolving the ego is difficult but at the same time very pleasant because we feel that gradually you are getting free of what pains you, but there are times when the ego is strong and we lack the comprehension and will to not want what it wants, we don’t see it as wrong and we are teetering on the edge of falling deeply into it.

This is when we cry because we have no other remedy than to beg our Divine Mother with tears for help.


Edge of the Abyss

Sometimes an ego is so strong and we are so identified or unified with it yet we know if we don’t stop it we are going to fall deeply into and into deep trouble humanly, psychologically and spiritually. We feel that we are the edge of the abyss and the abyss is beckoning.

This you would agree is a grave situation and it may happen to those who are working on the ego. Not very often but it may happen and it may have happened to those who have dissolved the ego, I don’t think we are alone in that.


When Comprehension Fails No Other Remedy

When our comprehension fails and we are still on the edge of the abyss we have to appeal to the Divine Mother with our tears, our sincere tears shed while alone moves our Divine Mother to help us and intervene for us before the Law.

This happened to Master Samael in his fifth major initiation, he after failing that test cried from the deepest parts of his soul pleading for help and then he found himself in the tribunal of the Divine Law where an executioner of the Law eliminated that defect from him, it was beyond his comprehension and power to stop it so a third external force -  the Divine Law took care of it for him.


Conclusion

If you find yourself at the edge of the abyss and your comprehension and will fails you then you have no other remedy than to appeal to your Divine Mother for help. If you are really sincerely concerned you will shed tears naturally but that happens only because you are deeply concerned, worried and pained and anyway the Divine Mother knows us inside out and fake tears will not move her.

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...
