Scared of Denying

Scared of Denying – (1532)

Holy Negating

This is what we are scared of – denying the ego.

The Christ in us is the Holy denying. He is the force that says no to the ego!

This says many things. The first thing that it says is that if the Christ in us is the Holy Negating, and the Christ is a an autonomous and self-consciousnesses part of our Being it means that He negates or denies the ego consciously.

As the Christ is Love in us his negation of the ego must be aligned with his nature of love. This tells us that it must be done with love and not duty. But of course conscious love, not sensual or emotional love. The basis of anything conscious is comprehension. Therefore comprehension and love must be at the base of your efforts to deny the ego.

Scared

We may feel scared because we think that it is going to be painful or difficult. True sometimes it is.

We may also feel scared, because we believe that at some later point we will end up undoing our commitment of denying the ego and therefore fail.

If we feel we will fail, it is because we know that our commitment to deny or renounce has holes in it. That is, it lacks comprehension. We feel that when the situation with that ego gets difficult we know that our weapons of comprehension are just not strong enough to push that ego back and so we will fail.

Well you are right! There is no other alternative but to strengthen comprehension and work until your weapons of comprehension are so strong that you feel that they will hold you steadfast in the storm that the ego will provoke in you.

The basis of denying the ego is exactly this, a strong enough comprehension and the faith in that comprehension. Then you will succeed and you know that you will as well.

End (1532).

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...
