Lust Objectifies - (1804)

Critical Point

This is a critical point to do with lust. Lust as an ego makes people into objects. And from this point onwards unfolds the processes of lust, namely desire. Which is what drives lust.


Sexuality is About Real People, Lust is About Objects

Desire

If there is desire, then it is because an object has been created in our mind. A person has been converted into an object in our mind.

Possession Comes from Objectifying

Logically if something has become an object we desire to possess it. We only wish to possess objects.
You know, we only ever desire objects. We don’t desire people because we know that we can’t desire a person. It just won’t work. People always have to go. They may stay a while with us but at some point they have to leave, whether it be death or their destiny, but they must go as do we.

Can’t Desire a Person

We can not desire people, deep down we know that. This is because we know that a person has their own will, their own Being, their own likes and dislikes and that we can’t ever really control another person to the 49th region of their mind, because it is impossible (how can you do it – you can’t) and because we don’t even know the 49 levels of our own mind, so how can we control another if we are not capable of controlling ourselves. Our desire to control shows us straight we can’t control our own selves anyway.


Objects don’t Have Feelings

If we see another person as an object we don’t see them as having feelings or will or intellect. This leads to so many mistakes. It is a huge, huge oversight, a huge deviation from reality to see a person as an object, that is without feelings. This is where we lose respect for another and this is how we know we have converted a person into an object.


Remedy

As soon as you see the person as a person, not as an object, something will change in you. Respect will also be born.

Furthermore, see the person as a real person, going to the toilet, getting sick, vomiting, getting angry, making smells, being negative, being pessimistic and being in a bad mood just like all human beings do. Then the previous shift will deepen.

Lust does not Like the Real – But the Real is the Real and it is all that we Have

Lust converts people into objects constantly and so we have to constantly reverse this process, by seeing that the person is not an object but a person.

Lust does not go with the real, it likes to go with its fantasy, which comes from focussing on features or body parts which appear to look perfect. But upon closer examination they are not. Nothing is perfect in the body.

Lust exaggerates the feature or features and then fantasises overlooking completely all the different realities. Then what fuels lust is this fantasy.

When people ‘go out’ taking their lust with them, they always try to hide the real: their scars, obesity, pimples, less attractive features because they know lust does not like what smacks of the real.

End (1804).

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...
