Introduction
Esotericism speaks about the cup of forgetfulness and the cup
of remembrance.
This post is a little about each cup.
Cup of Forgetfulness
This is the cup it is said that one drinks from when one
falls spiritually.
When one falls, one’s consciousness falls asleep and with that,
disappears one’s esoteric memory. One forgets about one’s Being, one forgets
about one’s values and ethics, one forgets one’s past lives, one forgets even
who one is (an essence).
Cup of Remembrance
The law of duality applies nicely here. Where the cup of remembrance
is the opposite of the cup of forgetfulness.
One is said to drink from the cup of remembrance when one
awakens one’s consciousness once again. Then one knows one’s Being, one knows
profoundly one’s own consciousness and one remembers their past lives.
Drink of the Cup of Forgetfulness in Relation to the Ego
There are stages in the work on the ego where we really need
to forget the ego altogether. Not so that we stop working on it but because
just thinking about it and remembering it we strengthen it and we can be responsible
for bringing back to life something that was made dead.
End (2270).
