What Went On with Cain and Abel - (3205)

Introduction

Master Samael explains why Cain killed Abel. Without his explanation that of Cain killing Abel is one of the things for many people having read the bible that does not really make sense.

Background - Bible Reference

Cain and Abel were the two sons of Adam and Eve. Cain was the oldest son and became a farmer. Abel the younger brother became a shepherd. It seems that God did prefer Abel over Cain. Seeing this, and after an occasion where both brothers presented their sacrifices to God, and God ignored the sacrifice of Cain, Cain decided to kill Abel.

Cain Is and Abel Is

Master Samael says Cain is the sexual energy which becomes the fire and Abel is the human soul. He says that the two are brothers and get along very well, as they should. That certainly makes senses as the fire helps the soul and the work of the soul causes the fire to rise and intensify. 

However, Cain killed Abel. The bible doesn't really explain why.

The Fall

Cain killed Abel in the fall. The fire out of control disconnected the soul from the physical sending upwards to the internal worlds. When Abel the soul was disconnected we - the essence lost the human soul.

Furthermore Cain killed Abel with the jawbone of an ass, which Master Samael says, an ass  is the mercury. A bone is totally dry - meaning Abel was killed with the dry mercury - meaning the loss of the sexual energy.

The fore out of control can produce the fall and the fall disconnects the human soul from our physical experience.

End (3205).

  1. can you explain a bit more about the disconnection of the human soul from our physical experience ..did you mean the essence as we have'nt yet made the soul

  2. Thanks for the question. Good, I'll clarify. The essence comes from the human soul. With the fall the human soul broke away from the physical and withdrew into the more internal and superior dimensions of nature. Leaving only the essence here. If we had made soul before the fall, the golden embryo (essence developed) breaks away from the human soul and stays with us here trapped in the different "I's" that we create when fallen.

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...
