Our Inner Morpheus, God of Dreams - (1237)

Introduction

Wow! We have our own inner Morpheus!

It seems that within us, we have our own particular Mt Olympus or Roman Pantheon.

All the archetypal Gods of the mythologies that were portrayed to dwell in the outer inverse also dwell within us in our interior universe.

Greek Mythology

So the Greek Morpheus, not the dude from the Matrix movies, is the son of Hypnos, the Greek God of Sleep.

Morpheus’ main role was to help people by bringing the messages of the Gods to people while they slept. He was said to have wings so that he could travel between the Gods and human beings acting as a kind of messenger.

It was also said that he had many siblings, where each sibling was responsible for provoking a specific kind of dream in human beings.

It was also said that he could take on the form of any human being in a dream. Just as his name suggests “morph” meaning form. Morpheus it is said would take on particular forms and walk within the dreams of human beings and deliver the answers of the Gods. Which is actually a very important function, because it is a way that human beings can receive Divine help and every human being needs divine help.

“In the arms of Morpheus” is a common expression saying that one is sleeping soundly and beautifully. Also the drug morphine derives its name from Morpheus.


Within Us

Our interior Morpheus then is a messenger for our Being and the other parts of our Being. His function is to deliver the messages of our Being to us in our dreams.

Master Samael says that many times the Masters and the Divinities want to help us and they do so through dreams and for sure our inner Morpheus may play a role in this.

Master Samael says that our inner Morpheus plays an important function is practice of the discipline of dream yoga whose final aim is the dominion of our dreams to such a degree that we may provoke them, control them and even wake up out of them.


Conclusion

Why not work with this beautiful part of ourselves before going to sleep, asking that He work for us delivering the messages from our inner Being about a certain issue that we may want an answer to.

When we wake up inspired, motivated and with new ideas, perhaps this is the work of Morpheus, having delivered certain messages to our consciousness from our inner Being, Divine Mother or other parts.

End (1237).

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...
