Origin of Fear

Origin of Fear - (414)

Introduction

The origin of fear is karma, because karma is all about punishment and suffering the consequences. Karma is the origin of our primordial fear.

We are not scared of the thing but we are scared of the consequences. It is the consequences only that scare us.

Fear is also a causal karmic ego. This is because it has been brought about by multiple causes and is the result of us having made mistakes in the past. It is in many instances like the punishment for having made mistakes.

Spiritual Origin

The origin of fear is spiritual or esoteric. It lies in the belief that we can not go back to the Being or the Absolute or in other words to our Divine self, where there is peace, illumination and happiness.

The person who had or has fear had a tremendous trust before. We trusted the Divinity but with the fall we came to distrust the Divinity and create fear.

Karma is what always destroys our faith and trust. A sceptical person was one who had great faith in something before!

Fear Origin Process

The process of the creation of fear is:

Mistake -> Karma -> Pain -> Rejection of the Pain (Fear)

Fear all starts with us transgressing, that is going beyond a law or a limit. That is stretching things too far, making a mistake or breaking the balance.

This transgression has its consequences, which is the karma or the process of us restoring the broken balance, and this is usually costly, requires much effort and is painful.

Naturally we then come to reject that pain that is required of us to restore the balance that we broke. That rejection of pain is fear. The memory of that pain is also fear and the anticipation of that pain is also fear.

Conclusion

We normally don't blame ourselves for our mistakes or our fears. Hence we don't take responsibility for our mistakes and that is why we reject the karma that we have. The karma that we have and hence our fear, is due to our own past actions. If we are to take responsibility for it, and decide to work so as to pay it things change in us in relation to that karmic debt and the fear we have.

Fear covers our lack of responsibility and is the cause of us rejecting or avoiding pain which makes us to continue our fear. For example, if you are scared of someone, accept or take responsibility for having offended them or having caused their negative attitude towards you or take responsibility of having done it to others in the past, in the case you have not done anything to offend this person that you are scared of.

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...
