Anger a Worry! - (900)

Introduction

What worries me about anger is that in anger there are many modes of acting that are like intense discharges against other people.

I would really prefer that in a human being there would be a factual type of questioning rather than violence, attack, mocking, derision, belittlement etc.

Why is this So?

Why does anger have such modes of acting or processing itself? Mainly because it is force and force is energy in movement. It all depends on the direction in which that energy is given to flow. Our mind is the one that gives this force a direction to flow in.

That basic direction is in the search for compensation or an attempt to fill a void that has been created, by getting satisfaction to fill the dissatisfaction that has been produced, and that satisfaction in anger comes from hurting the other back.


Work in the Mind

The key is to work in the mind to train it to give the force that anger provokes a positive direction to flow in. Or actually if we remove all those concepts and violent modes of acting using words and gestures and violent actions we will feel force with nowhere for it to go. Which is fine.


Conclusion

If one works on anger enough to remove those derisive, violent modes of word, action and mental images inside oneself we will feel very much more at peace. Because having those violent modes in our mind even though they are dormant always provokes a level of fear in one, that fear is felt in the subconscious and emanates from the subconscious producing a very light and subtle anxiety in daily life and it gets very intense when we are getting angry or are close to getting angry.

Finally 900 posts. That was the longest 100 (801 to 900) ever.

End (900).

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...
