Pain and its Characteristics - (1173)

Characteristics

Pain lacks co-operation, it is selfish, it is only about oneself or itself.

The admirable thing is to go to help those who have no relation to us! Pain is always concerned with our immediate area of influence.

Pain remains supreme and occupies our whole human machine and drags the whole scenario into that pain.

Pain wants commiseration from others! We even pray with pain. Pain is morbid that wants attention and importance. Pain as we see it, is a sign of maturity of being an adult. We feel distinguished, special and ‘of age’ in our pain.

We say you don't understand! People never quite understand our pain.


A Branch of Pride

Pain is a branch of pride, it belongs to pride. Observe that most of our pain comes to us due to pride.


Pain as Foundation

Everything can become painful. This is because karma is the cause of this creation or planet. Pain is the foundation of this creation. It is the karma of the gods and we were impregnated with this pain from the beginning. Pain created this planet. To be outcast from the Absolute is pain, to have 97% of sleeping consciousness is pain.

When the Lemurians lost their consciousness that was pain. The path gives us hope and that is the antidote to pain!

The path is of the psychology of happiness. The way out has a be superior than pain. We have to see that life is difficult for every human being. Life it fought with pain, it is our foundation!


Factors that Perceive Pain

The nature of the Being is happiness.

The first step is to eliminate the factors that perceive pain!


Wise Use of our Values Avoids Pain

We need the wise use of the values and the wise placement of them. This is important because misplacing our values leads to pain.

We need to learn when and where to place our trust. What happens when we misuse and misplace our values is that we end up being disappointed and in pain, most of the time. Like for example we place all of our trust and love in an irredeemable criminal, for sure we are going o be in pain soon.

The conscious use of our values avoids that pain! Just like our physical money. We have our esoteric values and cosmic capital that we must use wisely, if we don't get painful results. The same with our faculties.

Pain is all about values. So we can ask our Being to help us use our values. That is to illuminate us about how to best use our values.

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...
