No Ego, Stronger the Contrast is for Others who Still have Ego

No Ego, Stronger the Contrast is for Others who Still have Ego – (2373)

Imagine

Imagine being around someone who has no ego. We may think that it would be great right? Actually if you have the ego, being around someone who has no ego would be a lot of hard psychological work!

Why Would it Be Hard Work?

Because the contrast would be greater than ever. Why? The answer is because there is more light than ever, that shines down upon our own darkness, and this can be uncomfortable as one discovers in a very stark and urgent way that one is truly abnorml. If one takes this with the work, one realises that there is much more psychological work to be done.

Greater Responsibility

A person who has dissolved the ego has the greater than ever responsibility of keeping themselves free of the ego, and this means that the person without ego has to be very careful with the impressions that come from the people who still have the ego. Becasue these impressions can cause, if the person free of the ego is negligent to revive dead egos. So the one's who have the ego still must be very vigilant and not release anything of the ego.

To do the above, that is not release the ego, takes in the various events of practical life, a lot of conscious effort, plus quite a bit of intelligent adaptation. Because the ego, even the small ones have no place anymore, and so one must work out how to speak and do things without those egos for the benefit of the person who has no ego.

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...
