3 of 7 - Sexual Centre and the Nervous System - (2850)

Sexual Centre

The sexual centre is a very interesting case in relation to the other centres and the nervous system.

The sexual centre can work all by itself. When this happens the essence in a person is using the sexual centre. However, the sexual centre normally functions in combination with the other centres. Perhaps with just one or two centres such as the intellect and emotion or with three - bringing the motor centre into the equation and with all the other four centres bringing the instinctive centre into use.

The Alchemy involves the use of the intellect, emotion and motor centres, with the difference being that the motor centre is passive and the intellect and emotion are focused on the inner Being. 

The instinctive centre plays a role in the functioning of the sexual centre supplying some of the attraction and impulses.

There are other elements in the instinctive centre that should not be allowed to influence the sexual centre, in the practice of Alchemy so as to not degenerate the practice...


Sexual Centre and Nervous Systems

The following knowledge comes from a very good friend who is a Gnostic missionary. 

So he said that the sexual centre is the only centre in which both the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems function. The parasympathetic nervous system arouses the sexual centre and the sympathetic nervous system causes the sexual energy to move.

For the functioning of the sexual centre both of these two operations are needed, arousal and the movement of the sexual energy.

For transmutation will and imagination must be employed to direct the movement of the sexual energy inwards and upwards. If not the energy level will rise and the shortest path to solve the issue of too much energy being moved into the sexual centre will be sort by the instinctive centre, which is to move the energy downwards and outwards. However, if one has trained their instinctive centre to transmute this will not happen. The instinctive centre will move the energy inwards and upwards.

It so turns out that breathing allows us an entry point to consciously operate these two nervous systems in relation to the sexual centre. More about that in the next post, thanks to the words of my friend.

End (2850).

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...
