Some Learnings About Consciousness – (1499)

Our Ideas:

A Sun Shining Ever Brightly?

We may think that when the consciousness is awakened or when we have a large amount of consciousness awakened it will constantly shine like the sun does in space. Forever resplendent.

This is wrong. I am learning this not from myself but from the teachings of another.

The consciousness is subject to the ebb and flow of things. There are moments when it glows with less intensity than other moments.

This means that there are moments when the consciousness is more awake than in other moments. The consciousness too pulsates, as do the worlds and the galaxies.

The consciousness can also get tired and needs a certain repose.


Conscious Decides Always By Itself?

We may think that when the consciousness awakens it works by itself all time whether we want it or like it or not.

This is wrong too.

The consciousness as Master Samael says is ray of light where it is up to us (the human being) to decide on what and how we focus the light. We may decide to focus it on what the ego wants or on the consciousness itself or something else, good or bad.

All Immune?

We may think that the consciousness is immune, that it is a blazing sun that dissolves all that falls under its rays.

This is wrong too.

The consciousness can be worn down if not exercised often enough and not isolated enough from the darkness and from the more lunar type of impressions.


Conclusion

When the masters awaken consciousness this is where they have to be more careful than ever not to allow it to become bottled again or worn down or subjected too many impressions of a negative type.

End (1499).

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...
