Watching Over Others is Watching Over Yourself

Watching Over Others is Watching Over Yourself - (2486)

Watching Over

It is said that Buddha said: "To watch over others is to watch over yourself, and to watch over yourself is to watch over others.".

This sounds quite strange and seems sort of half true.

We can better understand why the Buddha is right when we take a better look at 'to watch' means.

If we take to watch to mean to be in another person, we can see how the Buddha is right.

The Buddha is right because to be in another person we have to use or consciousness and in fact 'be' our consciousness. While we are ego, mind and personality we are always in ourselves, that is within our 'myself' and in our person or personality.

So when I leave myself and enter into you I use and become my consciousness, and when I am my consciousness I am my true authentic self, and I am watching over both you and myself.

Similarly 'to be' my consciousness means I am aware of you.

A Magnificent Key

This is a really wonderful key to help us in our awakening. If we can voluntarily and of course consciously leave our person and go into another to become aware of the other, how they are seeing things, how they are feeling, what they are thinking, whether their situation is fair we are not at all losing or leaving ourselves, we are the opposite, in ourselves and with ourselves as consciousnsess.

Ignoramus Selfishness

The ego of selfishness is ignorant of this and sees to do such an exercise as a complete waste of time and would rather prefer to be thinking about its person, and the time and energy that the person has. Even the ego of selfish can get so scared about doing this and even slam it as a stupidity. Though the Buddha is right...

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...

Embrace Motor Centre Lingo to Act - (6101)

To overcome the overthinking issue and the lamentation of not doing, we can use a key where we embrace the language of the motor centre. Before we do that we need to know the language of the motor centre. The language of the motor is action, it is doing. It is life in motion. It is starting, it is 'getting stuck into' a task without reasoning. "Get it done!" is the motto of the motor centre. "Let's find out!" is another. The motor centre modus operandi is not reasoning, that belongs to the intellect. So delaying and postponing is the intellect. It's not the motor centre. The motor centre is about doing. The more we just do something when we think of it or feel like no matter what the mind reasons (unless a very good physical reason) the more we are embracing the language of the motor centre. Action without thinking. There has to be thinking but thinking aligned with doing, not thinking against doing. The motor is always doing. Not doing something...
