Have You Constructed Your Heart Temple in Your Conscious Imagination Yet? - (3009)

The Real Picture

There are several inner temples and it can all get a bit confusing.

There is the heart temple - a real inner temple residing in our heart centre. Where the atom Nous of the Being resides.

There is the temple in which the Being of a person receives when the person completes the first initiation. In this temple the Inner Being officiates. This temple, as I understand it is located outside of eh person in the internal worlds such as the astral world.

Then there is the generic inner temple, which is more of symbol than anything else, depicting the status of a Beings work of self-realisation.

Inner Temple as Symbol of a Being's Work

As we work, we either construct our inner temple or we restore our inner temple (fallen bodhisattva).

When a person falls and remains fallen over several lifetimes, due to neglect, the person's inner temple goes to ruin.


The work that we do and the Inner Being does on the esoteric path constructs or restores one's inner temple. 

This inner temple is a symbol of the Being's work of self-realisation. 

Heart Temple In Imagination

In Gnosis we do many practices withdrawing our attention within, to search for our inner Divine parents within our heart temple.

The means by which we travel within ourselves is by imagination and will, where belief is used as the will component.

It makes sense that we need to construct using our conscious imagination our heart temple. This is enormously useful, because if we do it we really develop our conscious power of imagining and we create something that we can easily and quickly seek refuge in.


When we create our heart temple in pour imagination it takes up a powerful presence within our inner space and then all the doors are open for us in the silence of the mind to meet one day our Divine Mother or Inner Being.

The clearer the heart temple is in our imagination the more effective the refuge will be, that we take in it.


We can develop our imagination so much so that what we imagine is as real as what we see with our eyes. Then what we see with our imagination can comfort us so much...

Imagination is a real special something within a human being...

End (3009).

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...
