Lust is a Supply of an External Trigger for Affections to Arise

Lust is a Supply of an External Trigger for Affections to Arise - (3402)

Lust looks for what is pleasing to the senses to evoke the effect of ones likes and affections...

It is among many things a trigger that releases one's own feelings and currents of affection etc.

It uses an external trigger to spark our own forces.

Ultimately it is our forces, our affections and energies that are at work. We think that it is all the other person. But no, it is ourselves. Our own psychology allowing an external trigger to move our latent forces.

We like our own forces not so much the other person. That is why relationships based on lust wither. after a while the trigger stops working and nothing arises but emptiness, disinterest, indifference etc.

A trigger that does not wither is needed, an internal one, one that is within the possession of the person. One can only possess what is inside of them.

Because it is our psychology or mind providing the trigger we can change it. We can change the trigger point.

In the way of lust we lack control. We become a slave to our very own forces. When we have an internal trigger we are getting back to being in control.

Can we have an internal trigger? One that is used by our essence and used consciously.

Lust uses external things but our essence uses an internal one: a pleasing of the essence, an understanding, essence in itself, and many other things that are not external.

End (3402).

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...
