Get to Reading S.A.W! - (1406)

Introduction

Gnostic students don't read very much these days. 

Really we should have read all of Master Samael's books. Or as many as we can.

Reading Master Samael's books is very important because it gives you the understanding of the doctrine, upon which much or I would say nearly all of your esoteric works rests upon. 

It also imparts to you an esoteric culture, which is lacking in many students, and the main reason why this is, is because they have not read much of Master Samael's books. 



Reading Master Samael gives you new knowledge, and makes you smarter and quicker when it comes to esoteric matters. 

Reading to some degree influences our way of thinking and reading Master Samael's books opens our mind, and actually to some degree, it instils in us an esoteric and psychological way of thinking. At the very least, it gives us the seed to develop the psychological and esoteric ways of thinking.


Even the Masters Read

Even the masters read a lot. Even those very close to the end of the work read substantially. Because they are looking for more light or for any particle of light hidden in Master Samael's words that will help them.



There is reading Maser Samael's books, and then there is reading between the lines and this basically what the Master's do. 

Master Samael wrote for everyone, beginners, intermediate level and for masters and initiates.

The later books of Master Samael are generally more profound and transcendental.

End (1406).

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...
