Waiting Intelligently is an Effective and Valid Technique Against the Ego

Waiting Intelligently is an Effective and Valid Technique Against the Ego – (1547)

When the Question is the Ego

When it is the ego waiting does marvels!

The ego can make us think that something is so important and irresistible. But if we just wait for that storm to pass we see that everything changes. What seemed so impossible now seems possible and what seemed so important and irresistible now seems unimportant and matter of fact.

Know When to Wait Intelligently

We have to know when to intelligently wait and when we shouldn’t wait.

When we wait intelligently we know that we will feel very differently soon and so this bit of knowledge helps us to remain calm and to not get so identified with the storm. You can put the thoughts and feelings aside and then because you know that their importance and irresistibility is just an illusion, in a few days’ time it will be different.

Golden Rule

The golden rule is when it is the ego that is involved wait! When it is the work involved don’t wait – work.

If it is a mixture of both, that is, it is beneficial for the work but an ego many fatten itself in the process, maybe take the risk or maybe not. You have to weigh it up and make your decision. Maybe try and withdraw, but make sure you can withdraw though.

“Ponder carefully and think wisely” is what my marvellous missionary would say.

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...

The Divine Mother is there when we Comprehend - (5780)

A very wonderful instructor gave a talk on Koradi Radio a few days ago and he said something that really impacted. He said that when we comprehend something, our Divine Mother is present right in that moment of comprehension. Especially if it is do with an "I" we are working on. He went on to say that he knows that She is there when we comprehend something. This for me was marvellous, because I have felt the same, though I was never fully sure. This is great news when we want to build a connection to our Divine Mother and doubt when is present. We can know that She is present when we are trying to comprehend. I feel that She really wants us to comprehend the "I" and further more She helps us to comprehend. We can truly ask for Her help to comprehend something and the help will come in such a natural way that we will tend to overlook it. She is better than Google... End (5780).
