Dreams and the Silver Cord – (2762)

Dreaming

When we dream or rather travel into the astral world with either just our essence or in our astral body what we see, hear and experience is transmitted through our silver cord to our physical body, principally to our physical brain.

This is so that we have the memory of what we experienced in our physical brain.

However, it so turns out that because of the ego it is convenient that upon waking, the jolt of returning to the physical body disturbs the connection between the body and the silver cord and the delicate memory of our dreams are disturbed somewhat, and makes the memory of our dreams not so vivid so that they are forgotten and not acted upon. In many cases thank God this is the case.


Silver Cord Connections

The silver cord is definitely connected to our physical brain and the centres of our human machine.
The messages from the astral flow down the silver cord into our brain and we feel these impressions in our centres and in our body. Because of receiving erotic impressions in the astral these impressions pass down to the physical brain and they excite the sexual centre, and this can be dangerous where a nocturnal pollution in a man or woman can occur.

It is said that the silver cord is linked to the physical body at the points of the brain, the heart, the solar plexus and to the liver.

The silver cord in these regards provides us with a unity in all of our bodies and experiences. It links essence to the astral and physical and it links the astral and physical bodies together.

Conclusion

It is a great unifier of bodies, essence and Being.

End (2762).

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...
