The Body as an Expression of Divine Principles – (1635)

In Principle

In principle all the human bodies are the same. Behind their creation and expression are several divine principles, where we could say that ‘Divine’ means eternal and universal, essentially cosmic in nature.


Male and Female Bodies

Male and female bodies are special, because they are the result of the divine masculine and feminine principles operating on form (matter).

Female Body

The female body is the result of the Divine Feminine principle having operated over matter.

The female body is the physical embodiment and expression of the Divine feminine principle and the same for the male body; where the male human body embodies and expresses physically, the cosmic masculine principles.


In Reality

So what a person in reality admires, when he or she admires the female or male physical body are the divine male and female principles behind those bodies.

All the female and male bodies are the same in structure, parts and nature due to the same principles having taken part in their creation.


Lust Disappears when Considering the Principles

When we take our admiration up and into this level of the Divine principles that have created the physical body, lust disappears.

Lust lives in ignorance of what has actually created the things that it likes. In other words, it is ignorant of the Divine principles that and this ignorance sustains it.

If we consider the origin of the things that the “I’s” of lust like, a very interesting effect takes place: lust flees. This is because lust lives in the perception that it’s likes are all about matter and have nothing to do with the spirit or the Divine. Lust is a limited and incomplete view. When we broaden our view encompassing the esoteric we see that lust has a skewed, incomplete and erred view and that makes us to change.

End (1635).

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...
