How the Knight Tiphereth Fights for His Damsel Geburah - (946)

About Geburah or Buddhi

Note

This description comes from a short talk that my marvellous missionary gave one day, these are my notes.

Geburah

Geburah, She is the messenger of Atman. She is the force of the consciousness. She is so beautiful yet so strong and powerful. She is the power of cognition and the power to shape and express the 'to be'.

Buddhi or Geburah needs to gain the ability to actually shape things here in creation. Buddhi and Manas carry out the conviction of Atman. That is why they are his two legs and also his two souls at the same time.

Tiphereth is also the medieval knight that fights for his lady - Geburah.


This medieval picture of Geburah or Buddhi as a damsel in distress gives us the idea that Buddhi is delicate but she certainly has a strong side, especially as the consciousness. Master Samael said that to withstand the Absolute or the Tallity we need the consciousness to be as strong as a diamond.

She is wisdom, beauty, elegance and strength combined. Just like the Greek Goddesses Athena and Minerva. They are Goddesses of Wisdom and warriors at the same time.


Master Samael on the Two Souls

Excerpt 1

“Atman is the Divine Spirit (an emanation from the Logos). He has two souls, Buddhi and Manas.  It is vital to comprehend this. In the Middle Ages, when the medieval knight departed in order to fight for his lady, it was nothing more than the human soul struggling for the conquest of his Spiritual Soul.

I achieved the comprehension of this when my Real Being took me into the causal world, which is a world of an intense electric blue colour. The King, Atman, the Lord, was seated at a table with a beautiful lady, who was his Spiritual Soul, his Beatrice, his Valkyrie. They were seated in a triangle with the human soul. Atman began to speak and said, "I have two souls, the Spiritual Soul and the human soul, and while the human soul works, the spiritual soul plays and lives happily. This is my doctrine. Thus, we three are one."

We, Atman, Buddhi and Manas were reunited in the Causal world, in that region of causes. So without such experience I could not explain this in a clear way.

Atman unfolds into Buddhi and Buddhi into Manas, just as when we look at ourselves in a mirror.  Thus, the Trinity is created. The Essence is an enfoldment of the Superior Manas. This Essence in its turn is bottled up within the "ego". The awakening of this Essence is the awakening of consciousness, it is to make oneself conscious of the mysteries of life and death. Many want to awaken the consciousness but they abandon the work at any moment. This is why the Maithuna was not communicated to anyone if previously this person did not have an awakened consciousness.”

Excerpt 2

“Divine Spirit - Atman
Human Soul - Manas
Spiritual Soul - Buddhi

The two Souls must be fused; the masculine Human Soul with the Spiritual Feminine Soul. This is not achieved without having previously eliminated the "I", and having eliminated the Body of Desires. The two Souls must be one.

This is the Great Alliance between the knight and the medieval lady. This is found in the books of Cavalry, "El Romancero", in the ballads of Count Roldan, in the Minstrel songs of the Troubadors. The knight who fights for his lady, is the Human Soul. The lady is the Spiritual Soul. The knight has to fight for his lady, otherwise he is left without her.

In order to attain total Illumination the knight and his lady must be completely integrated. The knight must fight for her at any moment, until developing the lotus of 1000 petals. Buddhi gives the Illumination in the great matrimony or alchemical wedding of Manas Buddhi. Without Buddhi, the complete development of the 1000 petaled chakra Sahasrara,  cannot be achieved.”

End (946).

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...
