Do Your Hair Toss, Check Your Nails, How Ya Feelin? - (3278)

"If he don't love you anymore
Just walk your fine ass out the door

I do my hair toss
Check my nails
Baby how you feelin'?
Feeling good as hell"

I quite like that song which I have heard a few times on the radio.

Every man has a feminine side and every woman has a masculine side. For example, seeing a man at a park looking after very young children. Walking them in a pram, brushing the dirt off of them while they play and comforting them when they cry and come running to him.

In some men the feminine side it is easy to see, and in some women the masculine side is easy to see. In my boss for example, who is a woman, it is easy to see her masculine side. This lady is decisive, makes tough decisions on the spot and organises a whole room of men telling them to cut it short and get to the point. The wives of some missionaries can have quite a developed masculine side at times. This is not bad. 

Anyway the point of this post that has started off so silly, is that realizing that one has a feminine side for example in a man can have some interesting psychological implications. Very beneficial actually.

Every man has an eternal feminine principle within them, within their essence or consciousness. The lack of familiarity, acceptance and closeness to this creates as a compensation - lust.

One seeks externally what one forgets to look for internally.

Lust wants to have the opposite pole, and it may get it and then nothing, no change in one really occurs. But when one seeks for the opposite pole within and begins to accept that and develop a closeness to and know that this principle well and truly does dwell within, then that has indeed a significant impact on the work of working on lust. The divine feminine principle is the Divine Mother.

I was once told during my missionary course that "lust forgets the Mother and pride forgets the Father". Quite right!

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...
