Exercise the Bodies

Exercise the Bodies - (3235)

Working Principle

If we exercise our physical body we usually develop what is useful - muscle and eliminate what is not useful - fat. We also increase the body's fitness for movement. The body becomes stronger, faster and more enduring.

Not everyone exercises their physical body on purpose, so we can then say that not everyone exercises their astral, mental or causal bodies, providing that they have them that is.

Build

If we were to exercise them we will build more emotion for the astral, more will for the causal and more mind for the mental. But emotions, mind and will developed in the free sense, not attached to any ego.

Obviously we would also make our emotion, mind and will more enduring, richer and more agile. While doing away with what is not useful of the emotions, the mind and the will. Which typically are inferior emotions, superficial and fleeting emotions, disordered and unbalanced thoughts and thinking processes and ill will or fades or whims.

How?

How do we exercise then our internal bodies? A lot of this is done via the psychological and esoteric work. So don't worry too much just work.

General Rule

If one works in mental silence one orders and balances the mind and learns how to pay less attention to all the silly and trivial thoughts and projections.

If one prays one orders their emotions and deeps them. If one has a discipline one strengthens their will. If one yearns and works on that yearning one strengthens all three.

If one transforms impressions one does not allow one the chance to dwell in negative emotions. If one does what one's mind says - one learns how to discard so much mental waste. If one obeys the will of the work and the Being one strengthens the will.

Kundry from Parsifal Unveiled - (3948)

The character Kundry is very unusual, and has a mysterious role in Wagner's opera: Parsifal. As master Samael explains, Kundry represents the archetype of the feminine. That mysterious yet extraordinarily powerful force that can raise a man to the heights of realisation or sink him into the abyss of failure. Kundry in the opera takes on a few different opposing roles, one where she is the temptress that seduced the king of the Holy Grail: King Amfortas giving Klingsor the opportunity to steal the Lance of Longinus and wound his side. She then helps the wounded king searching for balms to heal the wound in his side, then she is again the temptress that tries to seduce Parsifal the young knight who tries to redeem the lost lance. When Parsifal is victorious destroying the castle of Klingsor Kundry changes roles to become a servant of the holy grail and the knights of the order of the holy grail. These are all aspects of the powerful feminine force that is varied and has many differe...

What is the Kundabuffer or Kundartiguador? - (405)

Introduction Gurdjieff and Master Samael spoke much about the Kundabuffer organ and a lot of what Master Samael said is pretty clear. This post is just about going over some of what he said. In the Quinto Evangelio, Master Samael also revealed many more details which do not appear in his books. Note, the Qunito Evangelio is a two tome compilation of transcriptions of many recordings of informal talks that Master Samael had with his students. English and Spanish Terms There are these two terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer which refer to the same thing. Kundartiguador is Spanish and Kundabuffer is English. I believe it was Gurdjieff who first introduced these terms in his book “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson”. I believe “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson” was not originally written in ether Spanish or English. So these terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer are translations where the word “Kunda” could not be translated and the ending "buffer" could b...

When We Speak Bad About Ourselves - Because of Self-Compassion - (2963)

Even Just Thinking Negative When we just even think, let alone speak about ourselves in a negative way, thinking things like: how we are really this and that bad and that is not at all what others see, that we are in capable, worth little, know nothing, can't do this and that, fail at this and that, a liar, a dreamer the list goes on... We can be 100% sure that self-compassion is behind this because pride by itself would never allow this. In a case like this self-compassion taps into what pride hides from itself and others and exposes it. Feeling that it is doing job at ruining ourselves. Why It Does What It Does? Self-compassion does this sort of thing to avoid reprimand and to extract compassion from others. Self-compassion is about getting compassion for ourselves through others. It is set-up in relativity, using others as a reference point. Really the best thing that you can do for a person who is pitted against this ego is to ignore them, so that they can fa...
