Mythomania - (1408)

Introduction

This post are notes that I took on the long retreat held in Perth last year. My goodness it is last year already. How time flies. This is quite a classic theme, as it pops up in people now and then. The further we veer away from reality the more easily it can always pop up. Crashing back down to reality always hurts more than sticking to reality.

Mythomania and Scepticism

Mythomania and scepticism are both compensations for having lost the Being. they are all to do with a lack.

If we lack something a natural mechanism is to create the will to get what we lack or create what we lack.

Desire for Compensation

When we have lost the Being we actually create the compensation that we were, or we are actually a great fallen master. Or even, that we are a great initiate doing well in the initiations.

We by the desire to compensate so toque ourselves hope, we project into the world of desire (astral world) the compensation that we want.

The desires and images of compensation come out of our subconscious. Then when we see them and believe them. This is how the mythomaniac is born. which is a demon totally divorced from reality.

In our past history is our successes and failures. Our past history is our subconscious.

Take Experiences with the Consciousness

Every experience we have, we must take it with balance and with the consciousness, because the consciousness will always take it correctly and not create false expectations or conclusions.

We should not put our path into plus or minus. whatever we are told about ourselves by a master physically or internally, does not change us at all.

The desire of the subconscious is always ‘to be’. The egos come out of the subconscious to be in control.

We have to always contrast our experiences with reality, that is the three realities, the teachings and also the consciousness.

End (1408).

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...
