Forgive Our Trespasses as we Forgive those who Trespass Against Us

Forgive Our Trespasses as we Forgive those who Trespass Against Us - (1666)

Introduction

This petition from the "Our Father" hides a very special psychological truth that is extraordinarily helpful.

Hidden Truth

This petition from the "Our Father" actually has some relation to the work on the ego of self-love and balance in general.

This petition says that we can not be forgiven until we begin to forgive others. As soon as we start to forgive others our forgiveness begins. The same applies to the ego of self-love.

We can begin to fill ourselves with love as soon as we give love to others. This is because psychology when we have given love to others we can feel a wave of appreciation towards ourselves and towards our Being.

Clears Karmic Debts

Doing this also helps us clear karmic debts that we have with others. The ego of self-love can be very difficult to eliminate when we have in the past made others to feel awful about themselves through much derision, criticism, very cutting insults etc. Therefore loving others or simply helping them begins to cancel these debts and in accordance with the way these debts are cleared we can begin to fill ourselves with love in a manner independent of others loving us or not, which means the end of the ego of self-love.

We have the ego of self-love because we can not maintain an inner balance when others offend us or wrong us. The ego of self-love is about seeking balance, but getting others to balance things for us by extracting the love we should of received from them by force.

Conclusion

Begin to forgive ours to be forgiven and love others to fill ourselves with love, help others to be helped, care for others so to be cared for etc.

End (1666).

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...
