Had a Bad Start to the Day? Transform it! - (1001)

Introduction

Sometimes we start the day off on the wrong foot. Early in the morning for some reason we end up falling into or developing a strange internal state and out of that internal state we manifest certain egoic attitudes that are later accompanied by egoic actions and words, and it can seem that we have already been defeated by some of our egos.


Usually Good to Start the Day Well

Usually it is very important to start the day well, because from a good start to the day many good outcomes follow.


Transform it Don’t Let it Continue that Way!

So If our day is not going too well right from the start, we have don’t have to allow it to continue this way we can if we chose, transform it or turn it around. But to do that we have to stop, take some time out and work.


A Way to Transform it!

What is quite helpful, is to quickly stop what you are doing, close your eyes if you can and then contrite on your interior, focus on that interior state and find out what it is about, what is the disagreement or disturbance within us all about? Then concentrate on the Divine Mother and ask for illumination to see the consequences of allowing that internal state to continue and then see how much better it would be for us if we changed it and took the side of the work. Then if you have time and space chant KRIM to help dislodge that internal state. The most important thing though is to retreat for a short while and go inside as deeply as you can, it is this contact with our interior that helps immensely.

End (1001).

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...
