The Very Top of Our Tree is Connected to the Very Bottom Roots - (2195)

Look at a Tree

We see that when a tree grows it has to extend its roots deeper into the earth to find extra moisture and nutrients to make its new growth possible.

Growth or movement upwards is connected to growth or movement downwards in trees, and believe it or not within human beings.

Why you may be asking. The answer is by the law of duality and by the fact that we also have a tree like structure (tree of life) within our inner constitution.

That's the Why of Major Scandal and Great Redemption

This explains to us very clearly why there are those cases of highly spiritual people that all of a sudden go very astray ending in scandal. 

As they were ascending they were faced the deepest and strongest parts of their abyss, and they were simply overcome. 

This also explains to us those cases of those who were leading very degenerated lives and after some special happening in their life they turned everything around to lead a very spiritual life. 

Being at the very bottom of their own abyss or close to it, there was nothing more that they could see or do and so the only alternative once the learning from their consciousness was complete, was to take take all that wisdom that they have learnt and look up and travel towards the light.

There is the freedom in the Being with no ego and there is the freedom at the very bottom of degeneration. Imagine yourself as a homeless person on the streets who has seen it all and been through it all, there is nothing that can tempt him, humiliate him, scare him, he is free yet he is not with his Being. But he is so very close all he has to do is to convert of all of that experience into consciousness and do the work of dissolving the ego and creating the bodies and he will be there with his Being.

Duality

By duality when we are doing something the exact polar opposite appears. If one is focusing on sweetness and serenity in a certain event, then anger is there waiting in potential. Lust, fear, laziness, gluttony etc. is not waiting but the exact opposite of what we are focusing on and trying to strengthen.

So naturally, by duality when we are focusing on the heights the very depths are there waiting.


The Higher One Reaches the More Alert One Must Be and the More Difficult the Work Is

The following words are a summary of some of the things my marvelous has been saying lately. 

The higher one the more dangerous it is, the higher the height one can fall from. So naturally, the person at such heights has to be moire alert than ever because the very causes of one's egos and fall are present in the person's atmosphere. These egos are present precisely to be understood and dissolved. If one is not careful those egos can be strengthened and if they have been recently dissolved they can come back to life again.

End (2195).

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...
