Reason to Dissolve Lust is the Power ‘To Be’- (651)

At the Heart of the Issue of Dissolving Lust

At the heart of the issue of dissolving lust is the ontological, that is – the Being, our Being, your Being, my Being.

Lust uses sexuality and sexual energy in a way that does not allow the special power in sexuality, which is the power ‘to be’ to be enhanced. It expends sexual energy and sexuality outside of oneself giving energy and power to the external side of ourselves, namely our senses and emotions. However, there is a use of sexuality and sexual energy that does exactly the opposite and gives power and energy to ones’ Being, so that one can become more oneself or the Being.


Transmutation with Profound Understanding

Transmutation with the profound understanding of what one is really doing in relation to one’s own Being when transmutes is the biggest and best key to counteract lust.

Even one very respectable master who is very advanced on the path said “that as one transmutes one dies”. This is because one gives more and more power to the Being ‘to be’ and that ‘to be’ of the our Being pushes the ego back and dissolves it.

To feel the tremendous effect of how the transmutation solves our sexual problems (desires etc.) we have to actually transmute. If we don’t transmute we fall into lust, as simple as that.


Ecstasy of Being

In transmutation on the very odd occasion there is the ecstasy of Being, where our transmutation increases the power ‘to be’ and the person feels more of his or her Being within them - the ecstasy of the Being.


Conclusion

In summary, transmutation enhances the power ‘to be’ of ourselves and of our Being.

The reason to dissolve lust is in the Being or is for the Being. It is for us to become more and more ourselves through our Being, which is our true and real nature.

Lust diminishes the power ‘to be’. Lust uses the personality and the external side of nature. Transmutation uses the consciousness and the Being and the inner side of our nature.

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...
