Whipped to Change - (3556)

The masters and the Divine Mother for that matter, are not always all beauty and sweetness. They have a harsh side. Of course what is unwavering in whatever side they manifest, is their love. At times the love is sweet and at times it is as harsh and fierce as a barbed whip. 

We can appreciate that if it is not harsh the lesson would not penetrate and no positive change would be made. Of course to receive such a harsh whip one must be mature and know how best to take it. The best way is always to take it as an impetus to change. This is how the best can come to us. 

It serves no point to take it wrongly. The Divine Mother knows which side is best for us and when and how to deliver the lessons that we need to learn. She is a friend of our karma because the justice in karma cleans the essence, brings valuable lessons that clean and transform it. 


So have you ever seen a person being whipped (psychologically) so to change? We find it hard to stand right? Sometimes we can take it ourselves but seeing another is more difficult. To defend to interfere is not so good, it is best to let justice do its job which is to clean and transform a part of the person's essence.

It is hard, we think we are not being loyal or loving or protective of the other. Well when things are unjust it is right to say so in defense of the other. It is good to be vigilant to make sure that the movement to correct an injustice does not become another injustice. But at the same it is more consciously loving to see that the person receive that lesson and in receiving that lesson that person never fall into that error again, and with that lesson help many others to avoid that error.

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...
