Don't Believe You are Hurt - (1928)

Don't Believe It!

You know what helps a lot when dealing with the egos of self-love and pride? To not believe in that of you being hurt. Say to yourself: "I am not hurt, I don't believe I am hurt. There is no injury, no cut, no bruise, no fall etc. I am ok, I am fine I am not hurt.".

When we Feel that we Are Hurt Trouble Starts

You know when one "I" or another is hurt, underneath it there is a type of very quiet disbelief from our free essence that says in a very quiet voice: "Come on you are not hurt, you are like pretending.".

The truth is that we are not really hurt, especially not physically, and besides if there is hurt, it only in very practical terms lasts as long as the person spoke or did something and so really truly we are not really hurt by the person. Where the hurt that we complain about comes from, is the hurt that comes from our thinking, where we hurt ourselves.



It is very interesting to investigate our hurt. To question it to the very bone, asking ourselves: "how is that we are hurt?".

First of all our free essence, does not get hurt but an "I" hurts. It may feel like our free essence is really hurt but if we ask ourselves with the sincere intention of how it is, that our free essence is really hurt, we will get some light. because it is very difficult to catch our free essence feeling hurt.

End (1928).

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...
