Use Justice to Dissolve Pride - (2159)

Pride is so much about Justice

I don’t know if you have realised this about pride, but justice is a central theme to the ego of pride and its branches such as self-love, self-importance and self-compassion.

It would be very intelligent for the one who wishes to dissolves this defect to investigate the relationship between justice and pride.

Don’t Believe they are Related? Well read this…

  1. Don’t we say: “how unfair, how wrong” when we are insulted or humiliated?
  2. When something is wrong or right isn’t it mostly so due to fair, unfair or justice, unjust?
  3. When we have done something wrong don’t we feel in our pride to be above justice?
  4. Don’t we feel that because it us we will be so lucky to get away with it.
  5. When we hurt others don’t we feel that they should not apply justice to us?
  6. Don’t we feel that we should always be treated better than we treat others?
  7. When we are not oved enough don’t we complain: “How unfair I have done this and that for you!”?
  8. When we are loved less don’t we appeal to justice to force more love to come to us? Don’t we say: “I have done this and that, I have been with you for years and you love me only this much!”?
  9. When our self-importance is hurt, don’t we say: “how can you love others more, I have done this and that and that is unfair that you love them at all!”?
Well the above points are only but a few, but I think enough for you to get the idea and hopefully enough for you to be inspired to investigate further for yourselves and therefore broaden deepen your comprehensions of the defect of pride.


Fear and Pride

We feel fear in many cases due to pride, because pride makes us to feel that we don’t deserve justice or that justice should not touch us. Fear is there to avoid us facing justice.

Fear wishes that we avoid anything harmful and possibly painful.

That is why fear is used by the Divine Law to make us to suffer, because within fear is some suspecting or knowing of the karma that we have and so it wishes like anything to avoid that.

Basically, we are scared of justice.

Really many times we can catch our fear being very worried about the justice that is going to come to us. It even feels that something bad will happen to us without us knowing or suspecting it.

Use Justice to Dissolve it

If we sincerely see in every manifestation where pride is present the aspect of justice and we accept it, especially when it does not favour us we can I truthfully tell you definitely modify in a positive way that pride wishing to manifest. Modify it in the way of making it weaker and less of an intense protester within our psychological house.

Conclusion

Look as objectively as possible for justice and accept it as fully as possible and notice the difference, observe the vehement protests of pride quieten down as your consciousness understands and sees what is just, fair and balanced within the issue and accepts any fault if there is one and wishes to pay for it to make it ‘good’ again.

In other words use the real justice to overcome and displace pride.

End (2159).

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...
