Money Can Buy You… but Not... – (1475)

Introduction

During a conversation someone mentioned a poster that they saw. As they were explaining what they saw it made me to reflect. Really what they were saying is true and it brought to the light that really what is more important than anything else is life and life comes from our Being, so the Being is the most important thing! Not as a religious like belief but as actual fact. The aim of this post is to bring this point out for anyone that God willing it may help.



Money Can Buy You… but Not…

  • Money can buy you blood but not life…
  • Money can buy you a new organ but not the body’s acceptance of it…
  • Money can buy you medicine but not health…
  • Money can buy you insurance but not immunity…
  • Money can buy you sex but not love…
  • Money can buy you a bed but not sleep…
  • Money can buy you possessions but not happiness…
  • Money can buy you entertainment but not enjoyment…
  • Money can buy you food but not contentment…
  • Money can buy you books but not knowledge…
  • Money can buy you travel but not wonder and awe…
  • Money can buy you employees but not trust or respect…
  • Money can buy you power but not not a command over death...
End (1475).

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...
