More About Fear

More About Fear - (415)

Role

Fear prevents from dairy things that are wrong, which is good. But it is stops us from learning and knowing or even getting it wrong.

Fear has become our protector and that is why we love fear. We even call it prudence. We always think that there is a sinister intention behind everything even a gift.

Danger

Fear has a lot to do with danger, with the perceived danger of what could possibly go wrong.

When the danger is present and real, fear is rational but when we get scared where there is no danger present fear is irrational. This is because this irrational fear comes from the subconscious.

Unknown

We can not get scared of something that we don't know anything about. We are not really scared of the unknown-we are scared of the known.

We don't fear the unknown, only the consequences, we don't fear the cause but the effects only.

Solutions

There are three solutions to fear and there are three heads of fear.

The first solution is awakening, the second is knowing and the third is faith or trust. Awakening can take a long time and so it is not an immediate solution. Knowing helps immensely but can not most of the time he immediately acquired. So we must generate trust.

The three heads of fear are: memory, projections and experiences (ours or others). Fear is a very intellectual or mental type of ego or process. Fear would be nothing if it were missing these three heads. If we did not project, remember or not entertain in our mind the experiences of others or our own, fear would be almost non-existent in us.

Blame

We always blame life instead of ourselves! The three heads of fear are: mental projections and experiences, those of others and those that are ours and memory.

Exploiting Fear

Companies actually exploit us because of our fear, they take advantage of that. We even don't believe in God, we only believe out of the fear of hell or death.

The power of blackmail is in the fear of death! If we knew all about death and what happens after death we would lose our fear of death and nobody would be able to blackmail us.

All the religions tend to sell a passport to heaven and a deliverance from hell.

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...
