Source of the Fire is Below

Source of the Fire is Below - (1849)

Observe a Fire Burning

If you observe a camp fire or a log fire you will see that what sets everything alight and what keeps the whole fire going are the coals burning at the base of the fire.

If you were to remove those coals or burning logs the fire would soon go out.

Fire in the Human Being

If we look at what is said about the serpentine (kundalini) fire in the human being the same applies. The base of the Kundalini in the human being is the coccyx or muladhara chakra. Which also happens to be a chakra very close to the sexual organs or sexual centre.

These two chakras: the muladhara (base chakra or coccyx) and the swadhisthana chakra (ovaries/prostrate chakra) are the base of the kundalini and these chakras in turn are respectively related to the instinctive and sexual centres within the human being.

What does this Tell Us?

This tells us that just as the base of a camp fire is what burns the most, i.e. sacrifices the most, the muladhara and swadhisthana chakras must be the ones that sacrifice the most or transform the most to keep the kundalini fire burning and advancing.

Master Samael said that the Kundalini ascends in accordance with the merits of the heart.

The merits of the heart are in some way won when there is a victory of the heart over the centres and forces related to the centres of the human machine, that are in turn also related to the muladhara and swadhisthana chakras. That is when the heart wins over the sexual and instinctive centres.

Main Goal of Supra-Sexuality

This the main goal of supra-sexuality which is the condition of the kundalini. In supra-sexuality the heart wins over the instinctive and sexual forces and directs those forces and energies them nobly towards the Being dwelling within the person or towards a higher and nobler cause.

End (1849).

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...
