Prayer to the Inner God

Prayer to the Inner God – (5362)

A Difference

There is a definite difference between praying to a God that we located outside of ourselves to praying to a God located within ourselves.

To the Outside God

People generally pray to a God that is outside of them. Meaning that when they pray they feel a separation between who they are praying to and themselves.

Even having studied Gnosis one can feel this way when praying to one’s own Divinity or Real Being.

A person who has studied Gnosis can be praying and directing his/her prayers to a God that his or her own but is felt to be outside of oneself, somewhere high up in the sky or the heavens.

Doing this though does not mean that these prayers are ineffective or wrong.

To the God Inside

We consider God to be the head of the universe and so He is indeed. We are actually a universe in miniature and so our God, our Real Being is the king of our universe. Our Real Being is the supreme power within us.

The supreme power in the cells of our body, the supreme power in our emotion, mind and will and the supreme power of our consciousness and spirit.

We May Not like to Pray to a God Inside Because…

We sometimes even knowing this want to still pray to a Divinity that we locate outside of ourselves. The reality is that God or our Real Being is where He is, not where we put Him.

We feel that praying to something outside of ourselves is more powerful because an outside power can have power over us totally as a person or as a n essence in our body. But what about having total power over us from inside of our body, mind, emotion, will and essence? Isn’t that more powerful after all?

We may not trust that our Being is powerful and so we pray to an outside God. But He is always inside of us. We may also feel that we are isolating ourselves praying this way, but we are not because pour Real Being is inside of us and also inside of the Absolute. So in prayer to our Real Being we are connecting to the Great Unity of All Beings.

Through the connection to the ‘All” our Real Being is powerful and can influence our external circumstances.

You will see that prayer to our Being makes us closer to others precisely because of that. If prayer to our God inside of ourselves isolated us we would end up disliking others, but this does not happen.

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...
