The Mystery of the Fallen Bodhisattwa – The Double Centre of Gravity – (1392)

Introduction

The fallen bodhisattwa is a real astounding mystery, on one hand they can be wise, lucid, clear, firm, knowledgeable, experienced, helpful, understanding, benevolent and even possess faculties and powers or inklings of faculties and powers yet on the other hand leave everyone shaking with shock and disbelief at their actions.

We say and think: “how could this be?”. On one hand, so clearly expressing the qualities of the spirit and on the other hand so intensely expressing the ego and its characteristics. How could this be?
People are usually just a mediocre good and bad mixture, being more good than bad or they are really bad with some good flashes or they are just good. But not this intense flip of opposites. Which makes these fallen bodhisattwas very difficult to deal with.


Double Centre of Gravity

The fallen bodhisattwas have a double centre of gravity. Within them there is the ego on one side and on the other side, there is a certain development of the Being, through which forces of the inner Being still flow through.

Golden Embryo

The egos that they have are those containing the golden embryo so their egos are stronger than normal and because the fallen bodhisattwa is in contact with certain forces from there Being the egos can absorb those forces at times manifest intensely producing unexpected actions. This is no excuse though!

Internal Structure

Within them a structure or an internal creation has been completed. It is not being used but it is there. To be used and become active again it needs the fire of the kundalini and the death of the ego. This structure allowed the presence of their Being in the past and even fallen allows the Being to move the vehicle when the inner Being of the person requires it.


Move the Vehicle

Even the Being of a fallen bodhisattwa can more readily move the vehicle. Because that structure for the Being to move the physical vehicle is in place. The causal body is present, so is the mental body and the Being of the person can use those vehicles to move the person physically. Just as was the case when Master Samael met a Being in the causal world who was working intensely for humanity and they made an arrangement to meet physically. When the time came to meet physically Master Samael was at first disappointed but then he saw a North American man with his family walking towards him and suddenly he realised that that man with his family was the physical vehicle of the Being that he met in the causal world. The vehicle was asleep but the Being of the North American man moved his physical part to fulfil the commitment of making the meeting happen in the physical world. Amazing, that is what a fallen bodhisattwa can do.

A good painting I think, portraying the fallen bodhisattwa. Here we see the angelic nature (wings) of the fallen bodhisattwa mixed with the ego, shown by the expression of malice on his face. 

Conclusion

The case of a fallen bodhisattwa is very interesting. They are a box of surprises because of that double centre of gravity. They can be great and they can be a pain at the same time or one after the other.

Anyway each and every fallen bodhisattwa has to dissolve that egoic centre of gravity, as soon as he or she can. Because that double centre of gravity is a major distraction and a cause of much karma which only delays things further.

End (1392).

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...
