How Many Chances do we Have?

How Many Chances do we Have? - (1962)

Answer: 7!

Master Samael did not say this as far as I am aware but my marvellous missionary has told us a few times through some experiences that he has had, that we can have up to 7 encounters (chances) in a life time, with an esoteric school possessing the knowledge of the initiatic science.

This means that a person can leave an esoteric school possessing the knowledge of the mysteries up to six times.

As far as the person is interested and the Monad of the person really wants to work for its self-realisation that person can have up to seven serious encounters or chances to study and work in an esoteric school possessing the keys to self-realisation.

Certainly Not Advisable

It is certainly not advisable to do this, to leave six times and come back! You waste time! You break continuity.

In my experience I have seen people leaving Gnosis and coming back maybe 2 or 3 times, then after that, they just give up. Maybe they will come back later, if their Monad is still willing that is!

Long Absences – Be Careful Not to Burn a Chance

There are people that don’t come for months, then come back, in those cases such people have to be careful that these long stints of absence are not counted as a chance.

This behaviour is very common with the Latinos. Sorry but you guys have the tendency to be irresponsible in your attendance.

Maybe even large mistakes can be counted as a chance burnt.

Once All Chances Are Burnt

I would assume that once a person’s seven chances are all burnt up the doors are closed and their life takes a very different turn. Perhaps if the person is very repentant and earnest the doors may open a again.

End (1962).

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...
