Bad Day - About Eating Pork – (1579)

Introduction

This has not been a very productive day for the work on oneself, and it reflects in what I am posting here, a post about eating or not eating pork! Mama Mia!


A Momentary Connection with what we Eat

For the briefest moment when we eat for example a piece of meat we can perceive a psychic connection being created between our psyche and the animal that the meat we are eating has come from.

We may for a second perceive the life of the animal and a little bit of a residue of the vibratory charge of the animal and its life rubs off onto our psyche (because of the connection). Whether this connection is convenient, inconvenient or neutral to us, all depends with who the connection is to.


Some Connections

An animal such as a pig for example, being an animal that does not exhibit the most inspiring or noblest characteristics, creating a connection to such an animal may not be convenient to someone who wants to dissolve from their psyche any of the heavy animal characteristics.

If we don’t eat pork we should really also be strict with ourselves to not strengthen any egos in our system via identification and fascination. This is to make the resolve not to eat pork conscious and consistent and worthwhile in our work and life.

Many people don’t perceive this connection and so they don’t see a reason why not to stop eating pork especially when it is customary in their family home and in the society in which they live.

It is not so bad to be briefly connected to a cow, a fish, a sheep or a chicken. These animals do not have such heavy atomic egoic charge and their psyche if we can call it that, is not so heavy or involuting.


Conclusion

Basically I don’t eat pork because of the taste is not that appetising for me and because of this inconvenient psychic connection. If we repeatedly eating pork obviously strengthens this psychic connection and there can be more of a accumulation of this psychic residue rubbing off onto our own psyche. But really it is not much compared to what we do when we are careless with the work on the ego. I notice that what is complete and the best thing to do is to not eat pork and be vigilant always in not strengthening the egos that we have that are related to the egos that seem to be predominant in pigs.

End (1579).

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...
