Ego Does Not Have a Physical Body - (716)

No Physical Life

The ego does not have a physical life, it lives in the bodies and expresses through the centres of the physical human machine.

Even though the ego can take control of the centres of the human machine, it still does not have a physical body or any special organ in the physical body assigned to it. The ego is not even the kundabuffer organ.

The ego does not have a physical body or a special physical organ because it does not have a physical life and so it can not have the physical structure of life which is flesh, bones, organs etc.


Sleeping Essence

The main constituent of the ego is the sleeping essence. The essence free or trapped (sleeping) is not something physical, though it inhabits the physical body. The essence is something rather of the same nature as the internal worlds. It is in the physical body but its nature is akin to the higher internal worlds. The essence gives us an internal life and that is why we have two lives or two worlds, which are our external physical life and our internal life or internal world.

Within the essence is our internal life and because its nature and structure is of the internal worlds it has an internal life. When we enter the high internal worlds without the physical body we have only one life, we are just as we are, that is just as our psyche is.

One Life

The goal is to have one life and that happens here in the physical when our internal life comes to prevail over the external and that is when the two worlds and lives become one. The essence is the one that can unify these worlds. The ego or egos can not do this.


End (716).

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...
