So Many Silly Experiences!

So Many Silly Experiences! - (1186)

Introduction

You know there are so many silly things said in Gnostic groups regarding their experiences. Even about the work on the ego. There are people saying that they have eliminated lust and they have only been in Gnosis for three years. Then there are those who have experiences that they have incarnated the intimate Christ and they are single and have been in Gnosis for five years and are sick all the time and don’t even want to be a missionary, and this thing goes on and on.

The Question

The question really arises: “What is going on?”

An Answer

An answer to this question is that there is a serious lack esoteric culture and knowledge of the Gnostic doctrine.

It is always the same, the people that say these sort of things and have those sort of experiences are those that have read very little of Master Samael’s books and have not seriously delved into the study of esotericism.

This lack of study and knowledge makes them really silly at times and because of that they say some really silly things that don’t hold water against the principles and realities of the Gnostic doctrine.

But you know, it is too hard, too cruel, too abrupt (at least for me anyway) to tell them: “ah mate you are dreaming!”. So you have to spend half an hour explaining the doctrine and hope that they get the message by themselves that what they claim can’t be and that they need to revise their claims and ideas, and look for the proof of their claims in their esoteric, psychological and physical lives.

Kundry from Parsifal Unveiled - (3948)

The character Kundry is very unusual, and has a mysterious role in Wagner's opera: Parsifal. As master Samael explains, Kundry represents the archetype of the feminine. That mysterious yet extraordinarily powerful force that can raise a man to the heights of realisation or sink him into the abyss of failure. Kundry in the opera takes on a few different opposing roles, one where she is the temptress that seduced the king of the Holy Grail: King Amfortas giving Klingsor the opportunity to steal the Lance of Longinus and wound his side. She then helps the wounded king searching for balms to heal the wound in his side, then she is again the temptress that tries to seduce Parsifal the young knight who tries to redeem the lost lance. When Parsifal is victorious destroying the castle of Klingsor Kundry changes roles to become a servant of the holy grail and the knights of the order of the holy grail. These are all aspects of the powerful feminine force that is varied and has many differe...

What is the Kundabuffer or Kundartiguador? - (405)

Introduction Gurdjieff and Master Samael spoke much about the Kundabuffer organ and a lot of what Master Samael said is pretty clear. This post is just about going over some of what he said. In the Quinto Evangelio, Master Samael also revealed many more details which do not appear in his books. Note, the Qunito Evangelio is a two tome compilation of transcriptions of many recordings of informal talks that Master Samael had with his students. English and Spanish Terms There are these two terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer which refer to the same thing. Kundartiguador is Spanish and Kundabuffer is English. I believe it was Gurdjieff who first introduced these terms in his book “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson”. I believe “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson” was not originally written in ether Spanish or English. So these terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer are translations where the word “Kunda” could not be translated and the ending "buffer" could b...

When We Speak Bad About Ourselves - Because of Self-Compassion - (2963)

Even Just Thinking Negative When we just even think, let alone speak about ourselves in a negative way, thinking things like: how we are really this and that bad and that is not at all what others see, that we are in capable, worth little, know nothing, can't do this and that, fail at this and that, a liar, a dreamer the list goes on... We can be 100% sure that self-compassion is behind this because pride by itself would never allow this. In a case like this self-compassion taps into what pride hides from itself and others and exposes it. Feeling that it is doing job at ruining ourselves. Why It Does What It Does? Self-compassion does this sort of thing to avoid reprimand and to extract compassion from others. Self-compassion is about getting compassion for ourselves through others. It is set-up in relativity, using others as a reference point. Really the best thing that you can do for a person who is pitted against this ego is to ignore them, so that they can fa...
