To Conquer is Within the Value of Sexuality - (2462)

Many Values

There are many values within sexuality. There is so much essential depth within sexuality.

Of the many values within sexuality is this one called conquest.

Conquest

Does not the sacred fire advance upon the spinal column, one conquest at a time, that is one vertebra at a time?

Does not the sexual energy all by its innate intelligence conquer the creation of a new body within our inner constitution or outside of ourselves? 

Does not the sexual energy cause a person to conquer new stages of self-realisation, or to conquer an initiation or the dissolution of an ego?

Does not the sexual energy impart the strength, energy and will to organise the circumstances and events of one's life?

Does not fire as an element conquer all that it touches?


Negative Side

In the negative side, this value of the sexual energy causes conquest also. Remember the opera Don Giovanni, a terrible womaniser, that in one aria boasts about having conquered 3000 women in Italy.  The modern day womanisers are just the same keeping count of all of their romantic conquests. 

That of courting can be seen as a kind of conquest, where the reluctance of a shy and coy damsel is conquered.

The sexual energy as well in its negative side causes degeneration and the second death to be conquered.

Conclusion

The sexual energy or sexuality has within it the quality of conquest. This aspect used in the spiritual work is very very useful. Used wisely it can help us to conquer new levels of the Being.

There are three steps in relation to new levels of the Being. They are : conquer, assimilate and advance. The energy and will to conquer comes in a large part from the sexual energy.

End (2462).

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...
