The Reference Point is Loose

The Reference Point is Loose – (1462)

Why?

Who says we have to have a particular reference point? In reality we all have our various particular weird and wonderful reference points, but reference points none the less, and in the end they are not so different they either bring pain or they don’t.

Another important thing to note, and this is the idea behind this post, is that we can really chose any reference point that we like.

So then, if we can choose our reference point the wisest thing to do would be to choose a reference point that does not bring us suffering and helps us to awaken.

I say the above because depending on the reference point we choose; we can have heaven or hell.

That's who we become when we realise we can choose the reference point:
The one who pours the water.

Make a Wise Choice

The wisest thing to do is to of course choose the right reference point.

The way we know we have chosen the right reference point is because the right reference point brings us freedom, balance, peace etc. If the choice of reference point brings pain, constriction, regret, lament, failure, resentment we have got it wrong and the good news is we then know that the right reference point is the opposite. So then we can change it consciously and voluntarily - no problems.

Three different reference points three different statements. Chose yours or
chose none and float it: "it is what it is".

Hypnotic Grip

The problem is that the ego makes us to think that the reference point must be in a particular spot. It does not even allow us to know that there is as reference point. Furthermore, the ego does not like and resists us changing our reference point. But we don't have to think that the reference point is fixed, it is actually loose and moveable. We can choose it and so let’s choose it at will. To be more awakened is to have the capacity to choose.

Don't take the past as a reference point. The ‘moment’ is a better reference point. Don't have closeness, or past closeness as a reference point. Don’t have control as a reference point, that is if I can control the event, something or someone is good or I love that person or thing etc.

End (1462).

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...
