People Love According to the Role they Play in the Lives of Others – (1634)

People Love in Different Ways

When it comes down to human physical and psychological grounds, every person has a way to love. There are reasons for this that of course lie within the person. One of these reasons may be the role that they are charged with (consciously or unconsciously) playing in our life.

We have parents, siblings, teachers, friends and a master and a guru. Each to some degree is a role, and part of that role is a kind of love and a way of expressing that love.


Know the Role Others Play in Our Life

We can’t expect the same love from everyone in our life when they all have different roles in our lives, can we? The way a teacher expresses love is different to the way a friend expresses love.

If perhaps the teacher were to love in the same way that a friend does, that teacher may not be able to fulfil their role of teaching us. If the friend expressed their love in the way a teacher does, we would not call that friend a friend would we?

Our mistake is that we don’t recognise the role others have to play in our life and so we expect the same love from everyone and if they don’t meet that expectation we get disappointed and complain that they do not love us.

If we can know the role others play in our life, we can put many things into perspective and not get disappointed.

The most confusing cases are when a friend is both a friend and a teacher.


Love by Fulfilling their Role

Basically, everyone loves us by fulfilling the role that the Being, the Divine Mother and the Law have given to those people in our lives to fulfil.

Some roles may be very ample and include a very nurturing and supportive love and also include ‘tough love’ while another may be very narrow and only include ‘tough love’. Obviously the role of husband or wife includes many types of love and ways of love. To always expect the same type and way is to be stuck in a small section of life or reality and this produces suffering when we are face the other sides of reality and life.

Our suffering in life comes from not being able to so easily accept the new sides and events that life brings. Our attachment to the way we believe things should be, is suffering.


Conclusion

What are the roles others have in your life, meditate on them and identify them for yourself. Then meditate on the role who play in the lives of others and are you fulfilling that role well?

End (1634).

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...
