Humanity is an Organ of the Planet - (394)

Introduction

We most certainly believe that we human beings have life, we may even believe that we have a soul and a spirit as well. When it comes to animals and plants we see that they have life but we consider them as an inferior form of life or a form of life that is without soul or spirit. Besides the latter point in general we still seem to have some respect overall for plants and animals and do consider them as having life. However, when it comes to the Earth, our planet we seem not to be so convinced that the Earth is a living and breathing organism. Maybe that is why we in general are so willing to exploit it rather than protect it.

Maybe we see the Earth that way because it is doesn’t talk to us or because it is so much larger than we and we can hug it and put it into our arms and examine all of it or maybe it is just because we are so self-centred and we see ourselves as the only ones that have real life and anything else is there for our purposes.


The Earth has Life

The Earth sustains life, gives life and therefore has to have life. How can anything dead give warmth, move, provide a dynamic environment where many different forces are at play and intelligently interact in such so as to not create disharmony. Imagine that the Earth’s intelligence as a living being is expressed in the balance of all its thousands of natural processes.

If we are to see the Earth as an organism and not as something dead that has come to be this marvellous human life sustainer as the result of billions of years of trial and error then our understanding about the Earth and ourselves has the chance to be greatly deepened.



The Earth is a product of the cosmos and therefore is sustained and nourished by the cosmos. We will speak more about that later, but for now let’s see the Earth as a living organism, with all its parts and organs. That great maximum “As above so below” makes so much sense here, because we have organs it must have come from the same design as above, which is the planet. So the planet must have its organs as well.


The Plants and Animals

The Earth has several organs, one of them all serving very specific and immutable expressions can be seen in the oceans, rivers, mountains and also in the mineral kingdom and in the planet, animal and human beings.


The Atmosphere is an Organ

Even the atmosphere is a something of a “Sheath organ”, which means that the atmosphere is the one that receives the cosmic influences from above and then transforms and passes them downward to be absorbed by the Earth in a much more palatable form.


Human Beings the Most Important Organ

Human Beings are by far the most important organ that the planet Earth has, because human beings are the only organism that can receive the three primary forces of the cosmos. This is because human beings have the three brains, which are among other things receptacles for receiving cosmic forces. The plants and animals only receive two or only one of the primary force of the cosmos.

When the human being through its three brains receives the three cosmic primary forces the human organism processes and transforms these forces and then later unconsciously and automatically transmits them to the Earth, nourishing it. This makes the nourishment that the Earth receives from human beings far superior than the nourishment received from plants and animals, i.e. two and one brained creatures.


Conclusion

The planet Earth is a great and powerful living creature that like us has organs, intelligence, consciousness, matter and spirit. We human beings are its most important organ. The forests, the rivers, the oceans, the mountains, the various animal species, the rocks, minerals and metals are also organs, nerves, capillaries, veins etc. of the physical body of the planetary organism of our great Mother Earth.

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...
