Direct Thoughts Toward Ecstasy in the Being While Transmuting - (865)

Opposites

Transmuting and fornication are two opposites.

People focus or direct their thoughts into matter or in other words circumstances and people during arousal of the sexual centre because it is to leads them to feel pleasure, namely pleasure of the senses.


Joy of the Sexual Centre

A function of the sexual centre and the sexual energy is to generate joy (Master Samael says that it is a legitimate joy) and well-being and so if people direct their thoughts and focus towards the heights in themselves, that is towards the Real Being in themselves they may arrive at a feeling of mystical ecstasy instead of the carnal pleasure of the senses.


People Seek Sexual Joy through Activity

People seek sexual activity to feel the pleasure of the sexual energy and they must get pleasure because that is one function of the sexual energy but because their focus is towards the senses they usually get the pleasure of the psychology of lust and the pleasure of the senses.


A Great Truth and Lesson is Learnt

What happens though after this pleasure goes is that a great truth emerges and a great lesson can be learnt.

Usually afterwards what is most felt and what prevails is the remorse of it all. Though why I ask should there be remorse if there was pleasure? There is remorse because the pleasure that was felt was at the expense of the truer nature of the sexual energy. Where the truer nature of the sexual energy is something ethical and spiritual. When the ethical centres of the human being are pleased when the sexual joy is felt there is no remorse.


Conclusion

Such experiences teach or can teach people if they reflected deeply enough about the truer nature of the sexual energy. It is very much like money. We can waste it on silly things that do nothing for us, we can do that no problem, no one will stop us, though that is not what money is really for . Money is there as a means to acquire that which we need and that which will embellish us or make us a bit happier or our life easier. The sexual energy is the same thing. The real truer use of it is a spiritual one! The common experience of people proves this over and over again.

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...
