What Desire Does - (1016)

According to Pistis Sophia what desire does is to take us or Pistis Sophia further down our Sephirotic tree where things are much more dense.


Desire always takes us further from the Being and as the Pistis Sophia says, it introduces negative thoughts into our mind and through the mind negativity enters into our system.

It is very wise to be wary of desire and especially the act of feeding it. When we feed desire it only gets worse. So when we work on it, we have to not feed it (not think about it), this is because it gets stronger and blocks us from seeing deeper into it so to understand it better. When we feed desire we become restless and confused.

Every desire is a gaping hole that wishes to be fed and the ego acts in the wrong way to fed it but it never does really calm the desire because it can only be filled with the Being or the values of the Being. Every desire is like a wound that has to be healed with the right value of the Being.

We must find the value of the Being involved and then begin to act out of that value and educate our free essence, that this is best way and also at the same time watch how that gaping hole is gradually filled and filled with comprehension and with awareness that it is being filled and knowledge of why this is the better way 'to be'.

When we see the dissolution of the ego as better or the exercising of the value of the Being involved in this ego then we are more ready to die in that ego. For as long as we see the ego better we will never die.

End (1016).

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...
