When there are Wounds – (1681)

Injuries in the Psyche

When there are wounds or injuries in our psyche, which we can also go by the names of emotional scars, emotional wounds, imbalances, untransformed impressions and finally egos or “I’s” we tend to take things that are said or that happen as a repeat of that same injury or as a reopening of that injury.


Example - Rejection

For example, when we have injuries still in our psyche to do with rejection, it is so easy for us to take the harsh words of others in the way of rejection. Even when the other person may not be meaning to reject us, but because we have those untransformed impressions of rejection present in our psyche we take those words or impressions in the painful way of rejection.

If we were to take those words without thinking, without interpreting or allowing our mind to make any movement, we would watch the coming and going of the words and the coming and going of the event and then we would move onto the next event in our life, just as naturally as the way water flows. In other words, there would not be any pain.

However, we have to make the effort to be very alert and to not allow the mind to think. It would be good though to not have to make a super effort and for us just to be able to observe the mind to be as it is. For this we need to have healed up those wounds of our psyche or in other words have transformed those impressions or have at least weakened those painful egos there in our psyche.


Need to Heal

So then we understand that we need to heal those wounds, which are just the same really as dissolving those egos in us. In a more scientific sense those wounds are really imbalances (injustices) inside of ourselves. Before being imbalances (injustices) they were errors in perception and misallocations of reference points.


Healing is Reversing this Errors

The wounds that we have in our psyche are actually a combination of karmic debts (things we still have to pay) and active wrongly directed psychological processes.

Healing is the process of knowing the right flow and establishing the right flow of these psychological processes at the same time diminishing the wrong flow. The more the wrong flow is diminished the more the right flow can be established. The right flow when applied to these wounds heals them. Sometimes slowly and gradually and sometimes remarkably quickly.


Conclusion

Some posts to come will be about some tips to apply in healing such wounds.

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...
