We All have to Develop a Secret Quality in Life

We All have to Develop a Secret Quality in Life - (422)

Introduction

About the payment of karma - how do we pay karma? The answer is with either work or with values. Values mean to develop and acquire virtues or positive qualities that help us and others spiritually.

A reason Why we are Here

We come into life with the need to develop certain qualities or virtues. We are given many opportunities in a life time to develop these virtues or values.

The reason why a person is a doctor or a nurse is because they have been given by the law a chance to serve, which is in line with or is what they need to do or develop in life.

Many Opportunities

When we are sleep we continue to reject these opportunities. For example if there is a person who needs to develop tolerance the person will have several visitors coming to him or her for him or her to develop tolerance.

It could be teaching, and so many people come to our lives for help but we send them always away. So the very important question is to what is it in our life that we have to develop.

What could it be? Maybe it be to learn how to say no. Maybe we need to develop force, maybe to die consciously. We are really given many opportunities to develop the virtues of the soul.

Conclusion

The Divine Law commands us to develop these virtues. We have to do it in our life.

How can we give others values? We are so materialistic now that we only compensate others with money. Though we can give others values by developing these virtues and then giving them the fruit of these virtues, such as if we develop patience then we are patient with them and we show their souls how beautiful patience is, etc.

Sometimes we have to pay certain debts in our life and they are best paid by using our virtues and paying with the fruit of using those virtues. That is much better for all, then paying with pain.

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...
