The Negative Ego Says: "it's all ...(fill in the blank)"

The Negative Ego Says: "it's all ...(fill in the blank)" - (3587)

Fierce Fight

Put up a fierce fight against that negative "I" that says in so many different ways: "that its all hopeless, useless, gone..." that its all $&!%..." etc.

Its time to question furiously with rigour and for God's sake not believe that "I's" proclamation that all is wrong, ruined, bad, corrupt etc.

Things are not ever all gone or all bad. There are levels and levels of 'bad'. The thing is that the "I" exaggerates. The interesting thing is that things live on and we are still thinking that they shouldn't because it is all 'bad'.

When one has been stuck in that perception that things are 'bad' and one lives through that and things were no way near as bad as that "I" projected we learn not to trust that "I" so much anymore and trust reality more. God is reality. God is certainly not fantasy or exaggeration.

Reality

Reality is neither good nor bad, it is itself - what is real without a bad or good overtone. For us to either fight with it, accept it, love it, reject it, etc. One thing it is, is that it is often kinder than the exaggerations of our "I's".

As soon as we stop believing that "I's" point of view, Ah liberation, our emotional centre frees up, the anxiety lifts, the worry goes, the feelings of wrong, defeated, failed etc. go and a new horizon of action or no-action opens up.

Keys of Not Believing and Trust

That's the key don't believe in the ego. Don't trust its slant on things so easily and readily, question, question.

When we don't trust the ego we are immediately automatically by default trusting something else. So if you ever have trouble with trusting the essence, that's an easy fix. As soon as you stop trusting an ego you are straight away trusting something else, like your essence, reality, the universe, the masters, the Being, God etc.

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...
