Desire and the Will of the Ego

Desire and the Will of the Ego – (1588)

Origin of Physical Manifestation

The will of the ego is the origin of the manifestation in the mind, and therefore in the emotion and in the action.

The will of the ego is the ‘trouble maker’ so to speak.

In the will of the ego is the drive to fulfil a mysterious or obtuse lack or need. The will of the ego is the same desire of the ego.

The will of the ego or the desire of the ego has a reason for existing. A mysterious obtuse lack or need is the reason for the desire of the ego.

Desire of the Ego

The desire of the ego is the quantity of our will trapped in the ego. Being trapped in the ego is another way of saying that a quantity of our will is conditioned to fulfil the object of the desire, which is always an attempt to fill a certain lack or need.

Desire or the will of the ego always has a goal. The opposite of the goal reflects the mysterious obtuse need.

The will of the ego expresses in words as “I want”, “I need”.

Direction of Free Will

Will should be directed into not allowing our will to be poured into fulfilling that goal. Don’t allow will to flow into the channel of fulfilling that goal.

If we get the ego at the dimension of where it engages will we have the ego by the jugular.

Do you feel that you can send your consciousness up to the dimension of your will and nab the ego right up there before it enters the mind. Such a manoeuvre is one of pure consciousness and will.

Know the lack or need and fulfil it in the right way, then it is easier for us because that need is fulfilled and the trapped will does not have function.

End (1588).

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...

Embrace Motor Centre Lingo to Act - (6101)

To overcome the overthinking issue and the lamentation of not doing, we can use a key where we embrace the language of the motor centre. Before we do that we need to know the language of the motor centre. The language of the motor is action, it is doing. It is life in motion. It is starting, it is 'getting stuck into' a task without reasoning. "Get it done!" is the motto of the motor centre. "Let's find out!" is another. The motor centre modus operandi is not reasoning, that belongs to the intellect. So delaying and postponing is the intellect. It's not the motor centre. The motor centre is about doing. The more we just do something when we think of it or feel like no matter what the mind reasons (unless a very good physical reason) the more we are embracing the language of the motor centre. Action without thinking. There has to be thinking but thinking aligned with doing, not thinking against doing. The motor is always doing. Not doing something...
