Notes on Recurrence - (3071)

Introduction

This post is just a compilation of some notes on the topic of the "Law of Recurrence".

Notes

Each recurrence gives our essence an opportunity for epi-genesis. That is to do something new outside of the recurrences.

Spiral and Round

Recurrences process themselves via a spiral. Via an upward spiral or a downward spiral.

Recurrences in the downward spiral combine with karma and the Law of Entropy to add more complexity and heaviness into the recurrence. 

Only with psychological and esoteric work can our recurrences take up the upward spiral. The upward spiral has increasingly less complexity, karma and heaviness.


Each recurrence is round. It has a starting point and an interval or a journey which takes us back to the starting point at the end point of the journey.

Life

Recurrences guide and constrain our life. Each recurrence sets up parameters for our life to develop within, so that we will arrive at the right moment in time and space to be able fulfil the recurrence waiting for us.

Will

Recurrences are a powerful force. A force which is the force of our own conditioned will.

The force of a recurrence is also the karmic weight, which was created by the gravity of our previous actions. What we did in the past we did using our will. Then the karma in the recurrence uses the same amount of will by conditioning it to fulfil the recurrence.

Awaken

A part of our work with recurrences is to awaken to them and in them.

When we awaken to recurrences we know that we are experiencing one and we know what is coming next and then we have the option to be able to avoid their finality which may be a negative result for us or someone else.

When we awaken to recurrences we can work to avoid them. Then we can change the destiny of our life and also change the way our life unfolds.

When we awaken more to our recurrences we can see and know which ones are coming and when. 

What scares us is the feeling that negative recurrences are coming and we don't know how and when they will be. We are scared of the karma implicit in them.

This is one reason why relationships scare us because we know within every relationship there are negative recurrences. "How bad will they be?" we ask ourselves.

Protected from Above

By virtue of our work on ourselves, for our inner Divinity and for humanity many negative recurrences that we have waiting are postponed or paid in a way that does not harm our work.

Recurrences are not only physical they occur on many different planes within us. On the level of thoughts, emotion and action. There are many recurrent thoughts that never enter into our motor centre for action. Though one day they will via the action of the downward spiral property of recurrences.

End (3071).

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...
