The Value Inside Inverted to Become Lust is: Sexuality with Love - (1025)

What is the Value hidden inside of lust?

This question may also be asked in the following way: “What is the value that is the antidote to lust?”.

The answer to this question may not be so easy to find, however a very good start is: “a sexuality with love”.


Define Lust as Sexuality Devoid of Love

We can quite accurately define lust as a sexuality without love. The more we look at lust the more we see that this definition is very true or very wise.


Sexuality with Love but Love for the Being First

So the key to dissolving an ego is to find the value that is trapped in the defect and begin to apply it so that it dissolves the defect. So for lust the key is a sexuality but with love. Love is the tricky part, which will include the conscious love for one’s partner but that is not all, there is another love needed as well and it is called the love of one’s Being (one’s inner Spirit-Atman) through sexuality.

This kind of love is more encompassing and shows us the way all the time. When we are single when we are married and when we are married and can not practice Alchemy for a while.

This type of love is the one which looks up lovingly at the Being first of all and does only what in sexuality will enhance oneself and the Being inside of oneself. 

Much of lust is not about loving one self’s higher part – the Being, it a lot about simply disregarding one’s own Being and diving into matter and sensations. And so by doing this we draw further away from the Being. When we do this we weaken the Being in us and we feel weakened, confused, heavier, lacking will, more constrained and in debt and delayed and overall not very well. What harms us also harms our Being. So when we love the Being we do what is better for our Being and ourselves.


Applying this Value

Applying this love for the Being with sexuality is to think beforehand if that action in sexuality will enhance the Being in myself? Will it enhance the relationship that I have with the Being? If it improves my relationship with the Being it will make me and the Being feel better. Therefore, I am not losing anything or missing out on anything I am gaining something, and something beautiful and something which is more of myself, which is really what lust is trying to do but does it seeking unity in the wrong way.

That is exactly what happens to us when we only concentrate on our partner
and forget our Being. Love the Being first and that love will flow to everyone
and everywhere. Love others by loving the Being in you.


Lust seeks unity by succumbing and fornicating by being weakened and therefore subservient to the other. But the real unity is to seek the unity with the Being inside of one and this is done using sexuality focused through the love for the Being.


Conclusion

When we love the Being we will love our partner. We may love our partner but forget our Being, that is what many other people do. When we love the Being through sexuality we can be sure that the transmuted energy will rise to the Being. If we are only focused on loving our partner it may not reach the heights of our Being.

End (1025).

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...
