Abandon of Reason = Absurdity of the Abyss – (1612)

Introduction

There are levels of learning within the abyss. The first level of learning concerns the first three Dantean circles, where the main lesson to be learnt is to not abandon one’s reason to pleasure and that pain always comes after pleasure.


The Abyss is the Place of the Absurd

Only what is absurd can lead us to destruction or to nullity. What is correct what is logical and has reason leads to construction, balance and the right order of things, leading to the ability to maintain and sustain itself for as long as is required, allowed or needed. What is absurd collapses by itself in little time.

The abyss is the absurd, it is the surrender of reason to the lower passions which create destruction.


Reason

Reason is what allows us to be with ourselves and absurdity is what loses ourselves. With reason, common sense, consciousness we can possess ourselves. In the abyss we lose ourselves to the second death and to nature.

Reason is an attribute of the Divine in us, as it follows order, balance. There is also the objective reason of the Being which is a reasoning based on the data from the consciousness. Reason can be seen as the logic of the consciousness.

Reason is what causes us to stand upright and this is reflected in our body. Our head which reasons which provides us with intelligence is the on top of every other part and it is the first point of contact with the heavens.

Reason centred in the head rules at the top of the body and is the first point of contact with the forces of above. 
This means that it is written in the Universe that reason must control the inferior impulses and passions.

Lesson Learned Equals Freedom

To free ourselves from these two circles of the abyss we have to learn this lesson and establish firmly this structure within our psyche which is that reason must rule the inferior passions, pleasure costs dearly and pain always comes after pleasure.


Addictions are the Abyss Taking Over Life on Earth

Just something else, when a person has some sort of addiction, it means that their life is now rules and defined by that addiction. An addiction is when that things has grown so much that it over takes their life and that is absurd, because it is a small area of life that has been blown out of its orbit and come to take charge when it has no place being in charge. It is like the house hold cat is in charge of the house. Obviously that would spell disaster because the cat is totally incapable of paying the bills and cleaning. This situation reflects once again the absurdity that reigns in the abyss.

Of course what human beings get addicted to are usually things of an inferior order, such as drugs, alcohol, sexual misconduct, pornography, video games, social media, food, sugar, coke, internet, masturbation etc. etc.

End (1611).

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...
