Are we going to Fail Again? - (1004)

Introduction

Sometimes deep within us we feel that we won't be able to hold the height of our spirituality and will fall again.

We feel deep down we will go up to a point and then fall.


A Cause for this Feeling

Well there is a cause for this feeling or suspicion. There is a strong ego in us that wants to act and if it does we know that we will get into trouble.


How this Feeling Changes

If we work on that ego and make it weaker, we will feel all together differently regarding that feeling that we will fall or that we will have to fall in the future.

Importance of Will

What is of most importance is that we free our will, that is we have more will that that ego has. Because it is the will of this ego that says from deep within us that it wants us to fail or to stay spiritually low so that it can have free reign to do what it wants, and indeed our falls are recurrences and so in each of our recurrences there is will trapped by our own karma and that trapped will is programmed to fulfil that recurrence. And what is scary, is that within us, is this will that is trapped and programmed and it makes us to feel like we want to go through with its programming or commitments. So we end up with a huge battle of wills the free will that does not want to fail and the trapped will that does, and is programmed to.

The Weaker the Less Danger

The weaker that ego is, the less hungry it will be and so it won't be calling out within us for food that can only be gotten if we fail. So this is quite an interesting point. The weaker it is also the more will we have to command it and change the balance of forces and therefore that feeling of having to fail in the future weakens because we now have more power to set our destiny and we are actually more established in our destiny that does not include us failing.

Weakening this ego and freeing our will from inside of it will definitely change things inside of us.
Basically it is lust and pride in us that want us to fall or fail.


Needing Experience Yet

Sometimes too we think we need experience and experiences so as to be able to finally go up. Well with the dissolution of that ego we go deeply into it and deep into the abyss and we learn and experience a lot and so really we don't need to fall or fail to get all this experience that we think we have to have.


Throwing the Stone

There is also that about the Being in us throwing the stone. That is something that is in the hands of the Being and we don’t feel that so easily especially when we don’t have the stone yet.

Anyway, the more the Being throws the stone, the quicker He regains its or reiterates it.

End (1004).

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...
