Willy Wagtail Stands Down the Mazda - (3563)

What is it with these willy wag tails? One afternoon I as pulling into the Como centre’s driveway and this willy wag tail "Gustavo el Grande' we call him was standing me down. Standing defiant in the middle of the drive way preventing me from driving in.

He looks at me, moves his head like he is annoyed and stares for a second or two then walks off to his left. Opening the drive way for me to drive in.

They are bossy birds, they often marshal all other birds away. Often many times larger than their own size too.

Gustavito el grande trying to be tall perching himself on the garden light
trying to move Pushjak the fur ball of a cat. 
To have this spirit is certainly good. However directed inwardly. To stand up to our karma, to our own weaknesses and stand defiant before them and say I will work and work and defeat you is something that we all need!

To defy outside of ourselves goes against the natural order and Law and that is unmistakably Pride. 

See the ego is about polarities, The ego is a quality, taken inside of ourselves it is right, taken outside it is not right. The ego is a polarization that sits on the unconscious and mechanical side. The side that rests with the sensorial mind. A side which forgets that It’s own quality can be used inwardly to benefit the person's essence.

Say if one is defiant by nature that's not bad, but we must have the wisdom to know when not to be defiant.

End (3563).

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...
