Marriage is a Wonderful Thing - (774)

Introduction

People can have the view and certainly some people put across this view, that marriage is something difficult, yet there is something good about it, but for the larger part it is difficult and to enjoy the good which is smaller in comparison to the difficult, you just have to endure and endure.


Three Types of Marriages

There are three types of marriages which are:
  1.             Karmic
  2.        Dharmic
  3.            Conscious

Obviously the person who has this view that marriage is wonderful comes from the point of view of a dharmic marriage.

It is good to know though, that a marriage can be dharmic and hey do exist. This is good to contrast against one’s views and thinking about marriage.


Dharmic and Karmic Marriage

Obviously a person may marry one person and that marriage may end up being karmic, yet marry another and it may end up being dharmic. Or whoever one marries, the marriage may end up being karmic. It depends a lot on the Divine Law and one’s level of karma. If the Law decrees that one is to have a dharmic marriage then it will be dharmic with the minor part being some payment of karmic debts.

A Dharmic marriage will have the elements of dharma active in both people, that is both will be capable of respecting, valuing, appreciating and loving to some degree one another.


Conscious Marriage

For the Gnostic the aspiration is a conscious marriage, and certainly as one works one progresses toward that end. There within a conscious marriage the work on oneself reigns and the relationship is more essence to essence or consciousness to consciousness and the major goal of the marriage is to accomplish the work of the realisation of person’s Being.

There are three types of relationships, which are personality to personality and ego to ego and essence to essence. An essence to essence relationship is the one from where a dharmic marriage can mostly exist from. Ego to ego and personality to personality certainly do not allow for a dharmic marriage. But sometimes essence to ego or essence to personality can allow for a dharmic marriage, but not all the time, perhaps for just enough to keep things going, who knows.

Of course when the consciousness reigns there is balance and there is the absence of suffering and difficulty.

Often conscious marriages start off as karmic and with the work they are transformed into dharmic and then into conscious.

Some people are lucky in that they start with a dharmic marriage and then begin working and slowly transition to a conscious marriage. This is the ideal situation and is much better and easier and quicker to move into a conscious marriage.

Only really the work of the two people can transform a karmic marriage into the dharmic one.


End (774).

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...
