A Brief Description of Jealousy - (2458)

Not Often Addressed

In Gnostic circles the ego of jealousy is not often spoken of. Mainly becasue having it denounces us as perhaps petty, angry, spiteful, and worst of all, as undesirable to the one we are in a relationship with and that our jealousy is trying so hard to protect.

As my marvelous missionary said in the past, no matter how many egos we have or how big an ego is, as long as we separate them from our essence and we stay as our essence all is fine. 

It is not a problem to have the ego of jealousy. What is the problem is when we get identified with it.

My marvelous missionary also said that if we decide to work on an ego, the bigger it is, the better it is, because as we work on it, the more essence and light we will release and return to ourselves.

You know something, when I have thought that I didn't have something, the bigger and more problematic it became.

So in the some future posts I am going to present something about the work on this ego. Because I am working on it, and why not share what I am learning...

I decided a few years ago that I am not going to die physically without having told people all that I have learnt. 


Description

A basic description of jealousy is that it is a psychological aggregate whose function is to protect a close relationship from perceived harm or to protect ourselves from being abandoned in that relationship. 

One may say that it is the combination of fear and love, but love processed as a kind of love for ourselves processed through the other person.

Jealousy is always about the number 3. Well at least three, it could be four or more. But it is typically always three. When a third person appears then jealousy enters into action.

It maybe said that it is the wrong use of the law of three. Instead of using the third as a factor that strengthens (psychologically reconciles) the original relationship it becomes the cause of its degradation. The presence of the third can be used for psychological work, to bring more light which helps the original relationship to become stronger and overcomes the disturbance that the third brought.

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...
