Why are we in this Situation? - (798)

Answer

Because we decided it some time ago, maybe we don’t remember but we decided upon it. We may not have told anyone or even verbalised it out loud to ourselves, but none the less we made a decision some time ago, perhaps 20 years ago that has lead us to be where we are now.
If we are unhappy right now, then perhaps we made the wrong decision. You know we made that decision because we didn’t have the wisdom or experience of the consequences of having made a decision like that before. So all in all we can’t blame ourselves. Things are different now, we have this wisdom. So in the future or in the next life we won’t make such a decision again or at least not so lightly.
With this wisdom now we can help others and we can help ourselves, because there may be a way out of it.

How do we get out?

Well easy, if we decided to get in, then it can all be undone by deciding to get out. After all that is what we do when we work on the ego, at some point we decided to do certain thngs that created the ego or at least strengthened it and now to dissolve the ego we must first of all decide to dissolve it.
So whatever the situation is, internal or external ask yourself in the intimate depths of your own heart, do you want out? Do you want to change this situation? If yes then decide it and and the next step will become apparent.
The only thing to be aware of is, that some situations are karmic and this implies unpaid karmic debt. This will make it difficult and painful and the karmic programming will take away our will. Yes, that is right the karmic programming implicit to the karmic debt will hijack our will, making us almost incapable of not deciding or if we decide – of not going through with it.

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...
