Weapons to Displace, Weaken and Dissolve Lust - (392)

Important

What is really important is that as soon as we discover something new about lust we put it to work inside of ourselves. As soon as we apply the new discovery the sooner it becomes a weapon in our hands to displace, weaken and dissolve lust. This applies to any defect really.

Sometimes we can have so many keys but because we don’t apply them they remain as just words, and of course we remain as stuck as ever in the mud of the ego.


Take Your Weapons With You

Something that I have found very useful is to take your weapons with you everywhere. Take them shopping, driving, walking, working, meditating, singing, showering, sleeping, talking, thinking, you name it, everywhere and anywhere that you go externally and internally.


Weapons

Runaway Sexual Centre – Out of Order and Balance

My main weapon against lust is now knowing that all the thoughts of lust lead to a runaway sexual centre and that leads to great imbalance and disorder. A runaway centre is against the order of life, the body, it is against harmony, balance, stability and what is logical and orderly. So when a lustful thought arises I remember this understanding, which allows me to comprehend that this lustful thought I am currently observing wants to create in me a runaway sexual centre situation where the sexual centre will end up operating against the benefits of the whole (body, mind and essence) or the other centres put all together.

As I am not interested in creating unbalance and a runaway sexual centre why do I need to look twice, or make efforts to try and grasp or even think about pursuing or even dreaming about “what if” or “What could have happened”.

Connect to Reality

Lustful thoughts are all one-sided and far away from reality. We think that other people are interested in us etc. If we just look at reality we will see that is not quite so, or at least as we think it is, for example they may be interested in us but not in the way we think (this is 99% of the time like this). If we see the reality of the situation we will see that lust in us abates quickly and reduces itself to barely a thought and our thinking and perception turns more normal and realistic.

Does that look, coincidence etc. really mean anything serious? If we connect to reality we can see that so much of our assumptions are real fantasy. People may have things in their subconscious but they are usually very unprepared to do anything about it. As soon as the subconscious is brought to light everything changes.

Why Look

If I have already a partner or spouse and I am committed why bother looking ! We are not going to go there anyway, why bother looking, nothing will come of looking, so why even bother to look? We just make fantasy worse and make our illogical assumptions even stronger and more out of reality. Why dream when we are going to remain as we are in the same position in reality? No point right?


Conclusion

Apply what you have understood about lust or any other ego that you are working on. That is where the difference is made – in the application of the keys.


End (392).

Kundry from Parsifal Unveiled - (3948)

The character Kundry is very unusual, and has a mysterious role in Wagner's opera: Parsifal. As master Samael explains, Kundry represents the archetype of the feminine. That mysterious yet extraordinarily powerful force that can raise a man to the heights of realisation or sink him into the abyss of failure.  Kundry in the opera takes on a few different opposing roles, one where she is the temptress that seduced the king of the Holy Grail: King Amfortas giving Klingsor the opportunity to steal the Lance of Longinus and wound his side. She then helps the wounded king searching for balms to heal the wound in his side, then she is again the temptress that tries to seduce Parsifal the young knight who tries to redeem the lost lance. When Parsifal is victorious destroying the castle of Klingsor Kundry changes roles to become a servant of the holy grail and the knights of the order of the holy grail. These are all aspects of the powerful feminine force that is varied and has many differe...

What is the Kundabuffer or Kundartiguador? - (405)

Introduction Gurdjieff and Master Samael spoke much about the Kundabuffer organ and a lot of what Master Samael said is pretty clear. This post is just about going over some of what he said. In the Quinto Evangelio, Master Samael also revealed many more details which do not appear in his books. Note, the Qunito Evangelio is a two tome compilation of transcriptions of many recordings of informal talks that Master Samael had with his students. English and Spanish Terms There are these two terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer which refer to the same thing. Kundartiguador is Spanish and Kundabuffer is English. I believe it was Gurdjieff who first introduced these terms in his book “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson”. I believe “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson” was not originally written in ether Spanish or English. So these terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer are translations where the word “Kunda” could not be translated and the ending "buffer" could b...

When We Speak Bad About Ourselves - Because of Self-Compassion - (2963)

Even Just Thinking Negative When we just even think, let alone speak about ourselves in a negative way, thinking things like: how we are really this and that bad and that is not at all what others see, that we are in capable, worth little, know nothing, can't do this and that, fail at this and that, a liar, a dreamer the list goes on... We can be 100% sure that self-compassion is behind this because pride by itself would never allow this.  In a case like this self-compassion taps into what pride hides from itself and others and exposes it. Feeling that it is doing job at ruining ourselves. Why It Does What It Does? Self-compassion does this sort of thing to avoid reprimand and to extract compassion from others. Self-compassion is about getting compassion for ourselves through others. It is set-up in relativity, using others as a reference point. Really the best thing that you can do for a person who is pitted against this ego is to ignore them, so that they can fa...
