Discipline of the Moment – (2301)

About the Moment

The following points are some expressions of the philosophy of the moment.

1.) The best plan is to pay attention to the moment. If you have to plan, don't plan to plan, go ahead and plan and be in the moment creating your plans.
2.) Reading your interior is the best book to read.
3.) Life is now, only ever now! It is not in the past nor in the future but now!

4.) The most important thing to do, is what you are doing now.
5.) Life is only lived and learned from intensely by being in the moment.
6.) The Being, the essence, the consciousness is felt in a moment. Not in the past or the future.
7.) To be in the moment is more worth­while than thinking or even reflecting on an ego or on the Being.
8.) Reality is always different to our mind and different to what is in our mind. Being in the moment is to be in reality and to take refuge in what is.
9.) The work is now!
10.) Every moment conceals a mystery that being in the moment we can unravel it.

Anchoring in the Now

Here some points that help a person to stay motivated to practice the discipline of the moment.
1. To be in the moment is to be more awake.
2. To be more awake is always better for us.
3. To be awake in the moment unifies the three brains in that moment.
4. To unify the three brains brings balance.
5. To be balanced is to prepare ourselves to give the right answer to life.
6. To give the right answer brings dharma to us.
7. To be in the moment allows us the chance to perceive the real and alive external and outer reality.
8. To be in the moment allows us the alertness to catch the ego.
9. To be in the moment gives us the chance to die in real time to the ego.
10. To be in the moment opens a door within our consciousness to perceive the urgencies stemming from within.

11. In the moment, with our consciousness active, our brains unified, our interior state balanced, we can produce our best.
12. The constant effort to be in the moment no matter what event and circumstance we find ourselves in, helps directly to awaken our consciousness.
End (2301).

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...
