Consciousness as Reference Point

Consciousness as Reference Point – (1394)

Introduction

Having our mind as a reference point is very different to having our consciousness as a reference point. One obvious difference is that our mind will always come up with an answer, correct or incorrect, whether it be totally unreal, or an assumption, or a theory, or a supposition, a fantasy or close to reality but an answer.

Our consciousness most of the time remains quiet when consulted leaving us with no apparent answer.

Consult the Consciousness and Make it a Reference Point

When we consult our consciousness the answer we get is always a certain answer. In the sense that is a definite knowing. If silence is the result when we consult our consciousness we have the answer, the answer is that for sure we don’t know the answer and we have to search. On the other hand we may consult our consciousness and we find that the answer is something that we actually do know or in the moment the answer comes to us. This is different to the mind where we never really know if the answer we get is real or unreal or true or false.

Most of the time though the answer we get from our own consciousness is silence meaning that we don't really know.

The tone of our own consciousness exists. Our consciousness vibrates, we have to tune in and tune ourselves accordingly.

This answer does not seem very helpful but it actually it is very helpful. Our mind thinks it knows what others are seeing and feeling but consulting our consciousness we realise the truth that we don't really know.

It is good to go inside of ourselves and consult directly our consciousness and see for real when we know and don't know! This is to have our own consciousness as a reference point.

Conclusion

When we use our own consciousness as a reference point we can "be our own judge". When we use our own consciousness as a reference point we care how we take impressions and we care about how we react. We care in two directions. When we have the reference point in others or in a wrong place, we only care about what we receive.

With our reference point in the wrong place we are always stuck on one side of things. This is quite lonely and we don’t allow ourselves the chance to receive revelation which happens when we consult our consciousness. We should consult our own consciousness all the time even if the answer is mostly "I don't know".

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...
