Self-Inflicted Attention Seeking Injuries - (1052)

Introduction

We often, when we think others don’t like us inflict in action or words negative circumstances upon ourselves.

We do this when we can not compensate the offence with love for our own Being. So we flip to the opposite side
self-hatred trying to get the softness of the offender to set things right again. Self-inflicted injury comes from
self-hate which is the opposite of the love for our own Being that is inside of ourselves and is us.

Why?

To get the compassion or pity of others. As a way to solve the situation or to bring consideration or apology or attention out of the other that is upset with us.

We hit our heads on a wall, we say very negative things about ourselves, we want to leave, we deliberately harm the good image others have of us, we throw away the nice possessions that we have, we ruin our health with drinking, over eating or worse…

All these actions show us that what is really reacting inside of our psyche is like a wrong self-love, a self-love that is based on what others think or what we think others think of us and as that is not self-compensating we seek compensation through the negative side to get a positive reaction from the other.


That is not Love for the Being

In that, there is no love for ourselves or the Being. It is like self-hatred, which comes from not being able to love our Being inside and from the lack of the ability to generate love for our Being. Because we have to come to the conclusion that to love our Being is not to harm his temple or others either.

The real love comes when we love our Being first by have the reference point of love in our essence for our Being. This is a love outside of relativity and is self-balancing and self-generating. Which does not succumb to hatred or oneself or others, but loves the Being and the Beings of others and then it also loves other human beings.


Eliminate it!

Once understanding this and knowing that we must not rely on others to compensate our hurt or offence we must compensate from within the right way, by ourselves not using others. Otherwise we will not possess ourselves and we will always be slaves.

End (1052).

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...
