Rejecting Lust and Sex - Not So Wise? - (1807)

Introduction

We have to think carefully about this point. Lust and sex are separate. Sex does not need lust and is not dependent on it. But lust uses sex.

The right attitude is the centre. Rejection is not at the centre. The goal is balance.

Sexuality is a part of life, it is not our whole life, but an aspect of it. Sexuality should be integrated harmoniously y into the overall goal of our life which is the harmony and balance of the spiritual and human.

When a person makes sex everything or the main thing in their life then they are out of balance and will become ill or will have problems and difficulties coming their way soon. Even one can make sex the whole of their life by rejecting it just as easily as they can by rolling in it.


Rejecting

The normal way of working on lust is to reject it. However, in time that proves to be the wrong approach. Because the lust that we have been rejecting and suppressing springs back with the same force that we have been rejecting it with. This force that lust comes back to us with can be overwhelming.

Rejecting is not comprehending. Therefore, rejecting is not on the way to becoming conscious. Comprehension is what is conscious and is what liberates. The person who rejects wants to be free, but is going about it the wrong way.

The one who rejects becomes fearful and introduces terrible battles within one’s mind. These battles inevitably take own further into the lust that they are trying to be free from.


Way Out

The way out is accepting first of all that one has lust. Then countering it with conscious means. Trust implicitly in the means of your consciousness to counter it. Observation, conscious awareness, not feeding it, not identifying with it, not believing in its proposals, arguments, ideas, reasoning. If we are serious we will see for ourselves that so much of what lust says is not true at all. All its promises are not true, pain results and lasts many times longer than the pleasure that it provides.

Dialogue the Essence Trapped in Lust

Talking to the essence trapped in lust is an interesting way out. We can see through our dialogues with that essence trapped in lust that it is not us, that is something separate to us and that it lacks knowledge and trust in the true sexuality and is ignorant. Our dialogue does not praise it or love it but educates it, hears and learns of it reasoning and contrasts it against the logic of the teachings and of true sexuality. This dialogue is best down when an ego of lust is in the human machine, otherwise it is not so real, the danger of mental projections is rife.


Practising Alchemy but Rejecting

People sometimes practice Alchemy and then develop a rejection for it. This may be due to lust. Their lust appears and their capacity to concentrate or separate it falters and so within a bit of time they feel low (a bit defeated), terrible mental struggles appear, people become fearful of lust, and their system begins to get tired of lust and they feel like they have had enough and say forget Alchemy.

Everyone is free to think, feel and do as they please. The tool to save and free us is the psychological work and the Alchemy. To stray from the Alchemy is not such a wise idea.


A Question of the Intelligent Use of Time

The problem mentioned above can be countered quite effectively taking into account the very important factor of time. When the time of practice or descent into the ninth sphere is too long things can go awry.

The duration of descent must be shortened for the time one can remain separated from what bothers them. Then begin to increase the time as one increases one’s concentration and capacity of separation etc.

Remember Lemuria

Remember Lemuria, the whole disaster boiled down to duration. Humanity was give the Kundabuffer for too long. If it was removed earlier things would be very different we are told.

End (1807).
