What! Everyone has a Mind But Not Everyone has a Mental Body? – (2385)

Manasic Substance

The answer to this question, we can refer to what master Samael says about the Manasic substance.

He says that in that everyone's inner constitution there is an amount of Manasic substance. That amount of Manasic substance has been deposited into us.

This amount of Manasic substance is our mind, and further more this Manasic substance is intimately related with our psychology.

Our Psychology

Our psychology is made up of our essence and this Manasic substance. The two substances overlap  and intermingle and together they produce for us our psychological space and material.

Master Samael gives us an important key, he says that in any ego there are two substances or elements that are bottled up or conditioned. They are a fraction of the essence and a fraction of our Manasic substance.



In short the Manasic substance, is the substance of the mind and also of will. The word Manasic comes from the Sanskrit word: Manas which means "mind" or the "processes of mind".

The hindu teachings says that lower or inferior Manas is mind and superior or upper Manas is will.

In summary here the Manasic substance that has been deposited into us gives us our mind and our will.

Manasic Substance is not the Mental Body

Master Samael later on emphasizes that the Manasic substance is mind, but it is certainly not the mental body.

We can conclude that a person with a mental body obviously has a stronger mind and much more Manasic substance available to him or her. In fact a person with a mental body is one who has created for him or herself their very own quantity of concentrated, and intelligently organised Manasic substance.

The Manasic substance is the material of the mental world. The material of the universal mind and also of the Causal world.

End (2385).

Kundry from Parsifal Unveiled - (3948)

The character Kundry is very unusual, and has a mysterious role in Wagner's opera: Parsifal. As master Samael explains, Kundry represents the archetype of the feminine. That mysterious yet extraordinarily powerful force that can raise a man to the heights of realisation or sink him into the abyss of failure.  Kundry in the opera takes on a few different opposing roles, one where she is the temptress that seduced the king of the Holy Grail: King Amfortas giving Klingsor the opportunity to steal the Lance of Longinus and wound his side. She then helps the wounded king searching for balms to heal the wound in his side, then she is again the temptress that tries to seduce Parsifal the young knight who tries to redeem the lost lance. When Parsifal is victorious destroying the castle of Klingsor Kundry changes roles to become a servant of the holy grail and the knights of the order of the holy grail. These are all aspects of the powerful feminine force that is varied and has many differe...

What is the Kundabuffer or Kundartiguador? - (405)

Introduction Gurdjieff and Master Samael spoke much about the Kundabuffer organ and a lot of what Master Samael said is pretty clear. This post is just about going over some of what he said. In the Quinto Evangelio, Master Samael also revealed many more details which do not appear in his books. Note, the Qunito Evangelio is a two tome compilation of transcriptions of many recordings of informal talks that Master Samael had with his students. English and Spanish Terms There are these two terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer which refer to the same thing. Kundartiguador is Spanish and Kundabuffer is English. I believe it was Gurdjieff who first introduced these terms in his book “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson”. I believe “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson” was not originally written in ether Spanish or English. So these terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer are translations where the word “Kunda” could not be translated and the ending "buffer" could b...

When We Speak Bad About Ourselves - Because of Self-Compassion - (2963)

Even Just Thinking Negative When we just even think, let alone speak about ourselves in a negative way, thinking things like: how we are really this and that bad and that is not at all what others see, that we are in capable, worth little, know nothing, can't do this and that, fail at this and that, a liar, a dreamer the list goes on... We can be 100% sure that self-compassion is behind this because pride by itself would never allow this.  In a case like this self-compassion taps into what pride hides from itself and others and exposes it. Feeling that it is doing job at ruining ourselves. Why It Does What It Does? Self-compassion does this sort of thing to avoid reprimand and to extract compassion from others. Self-compassion is about getting compassion for ourselves through others. It is set-up in relativity, using others as a reference point. Really the best thing that you can do for a person who is pitted against this ego is to ignore them, so that they can fa...
