Persistent Difficult Situations - (532)

Introduction

There are certain situations in life that repeat and repeat. These situations may have even started while in childhood.
The reason why these situations repeat and repeat is because we have still not learnt the lesson why these situations exist in our life. There is a certain value that we have to develop from within these situations. When we do not handle values correctly we get a bit of karma and so the lesson to learn from thee difficult situations that repeat and repeat, is to learn how to correctly handle these values.


Examples of Values

Some examples of these values could be patience, tolerance, responsibility and perhaps even to learn how to say no or to speak about things as they are. Each person has one or more of these values in their life to develop.


Way Out

The way to find out which value we have to develop, we first must find the situations that constantly repeat and are painful in our lives. Once we have these situations, we need to search inside the situation and inside ourselves for the faults and the characteristics that if we had them, they would make the situation a breeze. With some sincerity and reflection we can find most or if not all the values that we need to develop.


Develop the Needed Values

It is quite a big step to recognize and accept that we lack certain values. The next big step is to go and develop these values. The real key to developing these values is to dissolve the values that prevent us from manifesting the values we lack.


An Example

For example, if we can not tell people the dangers of their actions or tell them that they are not doing well or tell them something that they won't like we have to work on the fear of not being liked.

When we don't tell someone their wrongdoing, they can not correct their actions, and that may lead them into making costly mistakes. Most certainly they would dislike us more because we did not tell them their wrong doings that could have prevented them from making mistakes.

That fear is a type of a self-love where we feel pain because others don't think highly of us. When others don't like us we feel uneasy or bad about ourselves that is self-love. We should actually feel good about ourselves because we are speaking our truth, and we are helping someone, so we have to feel good about ourselves.


Conclusion

It is all about values we need to find the values that we lack in those difficult situations and develop them, then magically those difficult repetitive situations will disappear.

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...
