Displace the Egoic Identity and Affirm the Values of the Essence- (1907)

In Any Situation Apply this!

Say you feel uncomfortable in an environment. Say because it seems people don’t like you, or you think people are staring at you, or you feel like a victim or you feel that you are going to get told off or you feel lust, jealousy, angry etc. etc. Give the following steps a shot!

First – Find the Wrong Identity that has Been Adopted

Look inside for the kind of identity you are adopting. A victim identity, a hard done by identity, a non-one likes me identity, love me identity, give me a break identity, smile at me identity, pay me attention identity, look at me identity etc. etc.

Second – Displace it!

Know that it is wrong and that I am not this identity. Prove to yourself that you are none of these identities. You are the breath of life coursing through your body that is aware of itself being that. You are not any of these limited identities. By the way these identities are really immature and stupid aren’t they. I say that because I have adopted many and more of these identities and they make us so immature and mediocre!


Find the Opposite Value

Find in yourself the opposite! If you don’t know what it is your own essence will tell you. It is basically want you want to feel instead of the what the ego is making you feel.

Hold the Value and Affirm it. Generate more of it!

Focus on that value and feel it. Don’t create a new identity out of that value because a new good ego (a kind of pride) will be created and you don’t need that! We need more essence not less.

Repeat what you want from that value and begin to feel how that value in you makes you feel. Feel that value, understand what that value is and echo and echo it inside you! Make it fill you inside of yourself!

End (1907).

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...
