Sometimes a Super Effort on Our Part Helps to Punch Through - (1195)

Introduction

For special reasons we need super efforts. They are not needed all the time but there are times when we need them. Super efforts are like catapults allowing us to cross over a river where there is no bridge.


When are they Needed?

You know you need a super effort when what you are doing is not working or not working enough and you have already tried as many different things as you can think of.

When you have exhausted all techniques, all angle of understanding, all investigation, all prayers, all avenues of help then it is time for a super effort.

The lead up to super efforts is usually quite natural and logical.


Punch Through

A super effort can help us for example to punch through to the next level of mystical death. When the words enough enough enough are resounding in our head and you have been working with mystical death but have gotten so far and you are not moving forward it is time to super effort it!

A super effort is to go longer and harder. Pray harder, KRIM longer and harder. Go deeper within yourself, look deeper, enforce what you have already understood with more force and grit. Practice more and be like a laser beam, highly focussed and all out dedicated to illuminate yourself and burn away the ego causing the suffering.

End (1195).

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...
