Alchemical Waters in Depth - (825)

Introduction

I have asked myself so many times what really are the Alchemical Waters? I have been thinking a lot about that lately and here is a relatively more complete understanding of what they are. I don’t want to say that the following explanation is the best or the most correct but according to what I have understood in the past the following is a more complete, coherent and clearer picture.


More than the Physical

What are these waters really truly in depth, what are they? They can not only be the sexual energy they must be representing more than that. We know that the waters change colours but the sexual energy physically doesn’t change colour, even when a person has the waters red the sexual energy has its natural colour. So then the waters must represent something more than just the physical.


The Psychological and Esoteric Dimension

In a previous post we established that the waters in alchemy are the sexual energy but with another dimension added to it. As with everything there are three basic dimensions to everything. There is the physical, psychological and the esoteric. So to then the waters have a physical, psychological and esoteric part or dimension to them. The physical part is the sexual energy, however when it comes to the colours of the waters the physical part is not really the important part, it is more the psychological and esoteric parts or dimensions that are important.


Just something on the side “FILIUS NOSTER” means the philosopher’s child or the child of wisdom. This I think means that the work of the transmutation of the Alchemical waters in the Alchemy, the union of the sun and the moon, is the result of wisdom or consciousness and has to produce wisdom and consciousness, which is Hermes the one who walks on the waters as one who is not drowned by the waters.


Full Picture

The full picture of the waters is really how we relate to our sexual energy and therefore how we use our sexual energy and how that use affects our sexual energy.

The waters take on different colours or states based entirely on how we relate to our sexual energy and how or what we use our sexual energy for. The quality of our inner relationship to the sexual energy essentially determines everything.


Conclusion

So in effect the waters are much to do with a state of consciousness related to the sexual energy. So then this really refers to sexuality. The waters then a representation of our relationship with our sexual energy, the waters are our sexuality and the colours that the waters take on show the degree of awareness that we have of the sexual energy. We could also say that the waters presented in Alchemy represent the states of awareness related to sexuality. That is why there are many colours of the waters, because there are many states of awareness or degrees of awareness of sexuality and the sexual energy.


Good Place to Introduce a Slight Deviation to the Theme

This may be a good place to take a slight deviation to inquire and ask the question: what really is sexuality? The next post is about looking at what sexuality is.


End (825).

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...
