Why Alchemy is the Work in the 9th Sphere – (498)

Always Wondered Why and Never Understood

I think I still don’t fully understand but maybe I am a little closer to understanding why. Here anyway is what I have come to understand so far.


Within Sex

Within sex are the very primordial powers of creation. Very primordial, ancient and powerful forces move and come into action when there is sexual arousal, contact and connection.

The real creative properties of the sexual and instinctive centre begin to work in these moments and it is then that the person working in the Alchemy must channel and drive these forces of energy and creation towards an inner creation (transmutation, sublimation, Kundalini, solar bodies etc.)


Sex is Chaos

Because the chaos or the abyss or inferno is the birthplace of men, beasts and Gods and sex is really the birthplace of everything, sex is also the chaos and also the abyss. When I say abyss, I mean it in the sense that the abyss is where the light is taken from and where men and the Gods emerge from. Men and Gods are created by working consciously in the abyss or in the place where the primal and primordial forces are in operation. They become men and then Gods by having tamed, controlled and creatively used these primal and primordial forces for their inner realisation or inner creation.

The seminal entity is our particular chaos and the work with sex is really also the work with the seminal entity, that is the activation, movement and inner channelling of it. Also the number nine is very sexual, it is someway controls creation. Observe that a child gestates for nine months in its mother’s womb and there are nine heavens and nine circles of the abyss. Nine above us here in Malkuth, and nine below us. Malkuth is the middle ground.


Conclusion

So sex is chaos and chaos is the matrix or womb of any creation and the abyss is a womb and so when a couple connect sexually they descend into the ninth sphere. Most just descend and then fail or stay there, those that work in the Alchemy descend, work and then re-emerge transformed.

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...
