Repolarising Self-Love – (444)

Introduction

Dissolving the ego, any ego is really about repolarising it, which is to change its direction or to turn it around into its opposite or the virtue, which happens to be the way the free essence takes.


With Self-Love

When we work on self-love we come to repolarise it in the sense that one starts to stop feeling happy in receiving and one begins to feel happy when not receiving and is more compelled to give love rather than receive love. Also one does not feel happy when misses the chance to give love or even worse couldn’t bring oneself to give love.

Sometimes it is not necessary to give love towards another but to direct that love towards our own inner Being and then with that love flowing inwardly and upwards we feel complete and satisfied and the hurt we may have felt is now neutralised.


Conclusion

Dissolving self-love is about changing the flow of love, with self-love we have a vacuum where we wait and expect love to flow towards us from others. Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn’t.
When love does not flow towards us, something in that vacuum turns sour in us and then a type of self-created hurt, offence, feeling bad about ourselves is created and then that feeling flows out of us in the form of anger.

When we do though get a flow of love from others a self-created sickly love is created in that vacuum and we feel good about ourselves and we love the other person. But that love is very fickle as soon as they do something we don’t like that love is gone. In both cases in receiving and not receiving love what is created depends on the flow of love from others. The real self-love is a love that is created from ourselves and by ourselves independent of the flow of love from others.

To dissolve self-love we need that flow to start from ourselves and go inwardly towards our Being and then outwardly towards others. That is the best!


End (444).

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...
