State of Alertness Indispensable - (531)

Introduction

What I think is the most important thing to practice is the state of alertness. If you want to work on yourself or know more about yourself we really need it. It is so very important!


What is it?

We need to be in a state of alertness, that is: alert, waiting to catch the next thought. Like waiting to pounce, waiting to jump on an intruder. It is to wait in silence, in inner quiet with all your psychological senses finely tuned and sharp ready to pick up the slightest psychological movement.


Gives you Critical Information

We need to catch the thoughts of the ego so that we can know what the ego wants and what it is all about. Then when we have this information we can work on it. We can’t do anything in relation to the work on the ego when we don’t know anything about it.


If we Lack Information

If we lack comprehension and information we can pray and ask the Divine Mother to weaken it and we can chant the mantra KRIM imagine that we are weakening it. We can also use our memory to work on it. The best though is to wait for it to come again for the chance to see more and penetrate deeper into it its logic and nature.


Helps to Awaken

When we are alert we are voluntarily directing our attention and we are in control and our consciousness is active observing our mind. This effort strengthens the consciousness and our voluntary will of attention and this has to help us in awakening. It gives energy to our consciousness and make it more lucid.

When we understand more of the new things that we discover with the state of alertness we awaken more and more to what we have in our psychology. The state of alertness leads us into new discoveries about ourselves and that is an aspect of awakening and it also leads us to transcend our mind which is also another aspect of awakening.


Conclusion

The state of alertness is really a practice for the death of the ego and the awakening of consciousness. What we need to do though from time to time during the day, is to give our state of alertness a superior mystical octave and remember our interior Real Being and relax our body, our breathing and focus our attention on our interior Real Being. Trying to feel His vitality, energy and life.

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...
