Lust is Against Concentration – (1613)

Dictionary Definition of “Sex”

Online Etymology Dictionary. late 14c., "males or females collectively," from Latin sexus "a sex, state of being either male or female, gender," of uncertain origin. "Commonly taken with seco as division or 'half' of the race" [Tucker], which would connect it to secare "to divide or cut" (see section (n.)).


Link to Secare – “to divide or cut”

This is quite interesting actually because this alludes to the other side of sex. Sex has it two sides as Master Samael mentions in his book: “The Perfect Matrimony” where he says that the sex is a double edged sword, where one side can liberate and the other can harm and wound terribly.


Concentration

Lust is then the use of sex or sexuality on the side that ends up being harmful to us. The ego of lust is like any other ego, in that it is a distraction and it is something that our unaware consciousness can identify with and therefore fall asleep to, however because it uses the negative side of sexuality it is even more harmful to concentration than the other egos that we have.

As concentration is about uniting one’s forces to a focal point, when our sexual energy used wrongly actually cuts one away from their higher inner forces and so our concentration is ever weaker, lacking the collaboration of some of our inner forces.


Conclusion

If one wants concentration and therefore force and power and the ability to throw one’s consciousness deeper into oneself one must reduce lust.

End (1612).
