Elastic in Love - (341)

Introduction

This post is the result of some psychological work inspired by various events and experiences with close friends and family. It seems that every event hides a lesson for our consciousness and by working on the impressions of the event and their effect in us we can extract that lesson for the consciousness. So that next time with that lesson firmly in place in our consciousness we will pass through the same event or similar events with much greater ease.


Need to Give Space

There is that all important lesson and that is to give others space when they are upset or just when we notice that they are getting a bit tired. We think that because they are meant to love us or like they should be able to tolerate us 100% of the time 24/7. That is wrong, people even ourselves don’t work like that because it is to break the ultra-important law of balance. When balance is broken there is pain and suffering or inconvenience at least 100% of the time, no exception.

Allow them to think what it is that they want and have to think (they have to think certain things according to the egos that they have)


Be Realistic – Rejection is Part and Parcel


We have to get rejected from time to time. The best that we can do for ourselves is to accept that it will happen. It has to happen because the people we deal with have the ego and there will be times that they way their egos see us and the things we do will touch their egos and their egos have to reject us. The other people have the elements in our their psychology to reject us. In fact with those elements in their psychology they should reject us. If they don’t it is because they are taking the work on themselves seriously if they are Gnostic.


I am accepting that and it is getting rid of the anger associated with being rejected and it allows tolerance and patience to be born. After being rejected, we if just keep normal and don’t do anything bad they will come around again. If not we just move on, we will find love in others always, always.


Should’s and Should Not’s = Suffering

To have things that others should do and should not do in our mind is hell. Others will always break these things and leave us suffering.

The only should we should have is that they should do what they do because that is their reality. Having should and should not’s is not to be in reality. It is to be in our mind and our mind is not reality.


Strict Patterns of Mind = Suffering

Having strict or rigid patterns about other’s behaviour towards us when we are in a relationship with them whether it be family, friends or a romantic etc. is terrible. We have to be elastic in our mind. To see that love is not rigid  and does not obey these patterns. Love is there for us from others but not always or all the time according to those patterns. We even have to be so elastic to see that others can be very angry with us and yet underneath still love us.

Master Samael says as soon as you try to grasp love the sooner it fly from your hands. Meaning that love can not be put into patterns or rules as soon as you do it is gone.


Love is Elastic

Love is elastic it works like that , sometimes others are very loving towards us then they are not so loving, it is always like that. They get angry with us and are selfish don’t want us around etc. We just have to go with that but trust they love us.


Conclusion

Make elastic your perception and mind about love and go about questioning and dissolving all those patterns. The main key to dissolve them is that they can still love us even when they do not behave according to those patterns that we have. Mind you there are some limits but usually how patterns are small details and things.

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...
