Introduction
The wisdom that we can gain in life comes from the very
events of our own life. Master Samael can be heard saying in one of the
recordings of an informal meeting that he had with some students that he would meditate
on the small details of life and extract wisdom that way. We can do the same,
our life is there in front of us and it is all that we have really to be able
to extract the wisdom that we so desperately need.
We can’t really use the lives of others to get our wisdom,
we have to use ours. Mind you we can learn from the lives of others, but wisdom
comes from experience plus comprehension, and we can only really deeply experience our own life.
Even if we live a life that is not so full of intense events
there are still many small details that can give us wisdom.
Wisdom
All the wisdom that we extract works its way to our Being.
It is first processed and realised by our essence and later when we develop our
golden embryo, it fuses within our golden embryo further developing and
enriching it.
Wisdom Formula
Wisdom is equal to experience plus comprehension or in short
form wisdom = experience + comprehension.
Experience is not so hard to come by, but comprehension is.
Comprehension could come about in two ways. One, by comprehending the ego or
egos involved in the experience and or by deeply comprehending the nature of
the event or experience. The deeper comprehension comes from the combination of
these two.
So someone who has been through 'a lot' and has comprehended
that ‘a lot’ very deeply we could say that that person has a lot of wisdom. In the case of Master
Samael he is really very wise, because in the past he really rolled in the mud,
though in this life he really went deep into the comprehension of the egos that
were involved and so combining his experience and his comprehension we can say
that he is really wise because he has a lot of both (experience and comprehension
or death of the ego).
Extracting Wisdom
Our Consciousness
Our own consciousness captures and witnesses everything that
we do and experience in life. When it is our consciousness that captures or
experiences the events of our life it transforms them or extracts the wisdom from
those events. The problem is that it is usually our mind that captures the
events of life and it stores them, adds to them, complicates them, makes concepts
out of them etc.
So we have to do something to make it so that it is our
consciousness that captures the events of our life. We have to do what Master
Samael did and go and meditate on the events of our life and extract the wisdom
from them.
Karma
A large part of extracting wisdom from the events of life is
the death of the ego and comprehending the karma that was processed.
Getting Your Wisdom
We can voluntarily do this by first looking at the physical
reality. We have to see cause and effect in the physical events of our life. We
have to see what the benefits and disadvantages were. See what the costs were
and see how we were affected physically.
Then we must move onto the psychological reality and see
what is going on there. We essentially have to see the exact same points there
within our psychological reality.
Then we must move to the esoteric reality and see the exact
same points there but from the esoteric or spiritual Being perspective.
Doing this covers the full realm of reality and so we can
make our learning complete. We must look for the secret wisdom - the wisdom
that was before unknown to us. This comes when we meditate on the event and
work in comprehending the ego involved.
Conclusion
Our life is the fertile ground for everything that we can
develop. Socrates said: “An unexamined life is not worth living.”.
Comprehending the events of our life may even lead us to the
realisation of our secret inner urgencies.
