Don’t be Afraid of Pain - (554)

Introduction

A major part of our lives is all about avoiding pain. Pain in so many ways rules our lives. My missionary told us that one very important step in awakening is to liberate ourselves from pain.

As long as the ego is alive there will always be some kind of pain that we will experience. It seems like we can’t avoid it. Well experience is showing me that we can’t until avoid it until the ego is all dead.

So we have to either get use to it or learn somehow to not be phased by it. To experience it with awareness observing it but having the attitude that and firm knowledge that it will pass through us and go, pain is always leaving us actually. Because its job is to take us to healing what is wrong.


Liberate It

There are two steps to doing this. The full way is to penetrate deep into the pain and dissolve it from the inside. This takes time and lots of comprehension. This though is the full final solution and it also requires the payment of many Karmic debts.

The first step, is to be open to pain, to not fear it, to understand deeply that it there to heal us, to indicate to us what is wrong and for us to fix it. It is actually a friend. If we start to not fear it we are getting free of it, we are allowing it to function in us and to fulfil its function within us. The main thing is to no longer avoid and fear it. Then we are starting to get free of it and it is going to stop ruling our lives. This though is emotional pain not the physical pain.


People who Self-Harm

All of the people who harm themselves have all come from very troubled pasts. They are all in pain. No one of them is totally happy and free of pain, they are deeply in it. They are compensating for not being able to control or deal with their pain. So they harm themselves inflict upon themselves pain in a way that they can control and mange. They only do it physically because they know the body will make it pass but they never go into difficult emotional situations to feel pain, they know that that is what they really fear and that is where their pain comes from.


Conclusion

When we know how to go to the Being to solve the pain, and ourselves together with the Being (in us) solves our pain we are free of that particular pain.

The essence and the Being are the balm to our pains. But before that we need to be able to open to the pain to allow it to move though us and to teach us what is wrong with our inner psychological functioning. Then we must act to correct it and then change and then the pain serves its purpose to take us to healing.

Please note, in this post I am referring to emotional psychological pain, not the physical pain. If we feel physical pain we should act to heal it straight away.


End (554).

Kundry from Parsifal Unveiled - (3948)

The character Kundry is very unusual, and has a mysterious role in Wagner's opera: Parsifal. As master Samael explains, Kundry represents the archetype of the feminine. That mysterious yet extraordinarily powerful force that can raise a man to the heights of realisation or sink him into the abyss of failure.  Kundry in the opera takes on a few different opposing roles, one where she is the temptress that seduced the king of the Holy Grail: King Amfortas giving Klingsor the opportunity to steal the Lance of Longinus and wound his side. She then helps the wounded king searching for balms to heal the wound in his side, then she is again the temptress that tries to seduce Parsifal the young knight who tries to redeem the lost lance. When Parsifal is victorious destroying the castle of Klingsor Kundry changes roles to become a servant of the holy grail and the knights of the order of the holy grail. These are all aspects of the powerful feminine force that is varied and has many differe...

What is the Kundabuffer or Kundartiguador? - (405)

Introduction Gurdjieff and Master Samael spoke much about the Kundabuffer organ and a lot of what Master Samael said is pretty clear. This post is just about going over some of what he said. In the Quinto Evangelio, Master Samael also revealed many more details which do not appear in his books. Note, the Qunito Evangelio is a two tome compilation of transcriptions of many recordings of informal talks that Master Samael had with his students. English and Spanish Terms There are these two terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer which refer to the same thing. Kundartiguador is Spanish and Kundabuffer is English. I believe it was Gurdjieff who first introduced these terms in his book “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson”. I believe “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson” was not originally written in ether Spanish or English. So these terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer are translations where the word “Kunda” could not be translated and the ending "buffer" could b...

When We Speak Bad About Ourselves - Because of Self-Compassion - (2963)

Even Just Thinking Negative When we just even think, let alone speak about ourselves in a negative way, thinking things like: how we are really this and that bad and that is not at all what others see, that we are in capable, worth little, know nothing, can't do this and that, fail at this and that, a liar, a dreamer the list goes on... We can be 100% sure that self-compassion is behind this because pride by itself would never allow this.  In a case like this self-compassion taps into what pride hides from itself and others and exposes it. Feeling that it is doing job at ruining ourselves. Why It Does What It Does? Self-compassion does this sort of thing to avoid reprimand and to extract compassion from others. Self-compassion is about getting compassion for ourselves through others. It is set-up in relativity, using others as a reference point. Really the best thing that you can do for a person who is pitted against this ego is to ignore them, so that they can fa...
