Concentration on the Event to be More Awake - (3651)

Simple Goal

Many Gnostic people in the morning set for themselves a goal. One simple goal. To live their day being more awake. A little more awake than yesterday. 

Keeping this goal builds and accumulates over time, producing as only we can imagine - good things right.

To be awake during our day means noticing many thoughts and many egos. Noticing them, we can take some time to die in them.

In this post I am going to pass on a key from m.m.m. that has been very useful.

I am not sure why this is, for every one of us there are keys which work so much more effectively than others. What works to perfection in one person is 5% effective in another. Why that difference? Too complicated a mystery to contemplate perhaps...


Helpful Key

In each event, concentrate! As you concentrate on the event naturally you will begin to notice the various fantasies that you have about yourself and the event. Notice the fantasies and dispel them, or KRIM them or ask the Divine Mother to dissolve them. Just make them disperse though, that's the main task of this key.

Then concentrate again and as you do you will begin to see the realer nature of the event and your place and role in it. Then with our consciousness clear of cloudy fantasies we are being more awake in the event and we are living our day being more awake.

This key is a real pearl for those who fall asleep in events because the fantasies that they have, cloud their consciousness. I'll give you some examples below:

If we are walking, concentrate on walking left right left right etc. In a work meeting, concentrate on the content of the meeting knowing you are concentrating.

Examples

Walking along all dressed well for a meeting at work. "People are looking thinking - this that and the other...",  "auditors in the meeting are not looking too pleased", "A reprimand soon", "saved the day, diverted the scrutinizing eye of the auditors" etc. etc. Then later the auditors come back: "what about this?"-  diverted their eyes - nothing!
 
Walking through a 'well to do' area of the city, expensive apartments and wonderful views. "Maybe they'll invite me in for a cup of tea and let me see their view". "Maybe one day an old person with no family who lives there will see me and like me and put me in their will - ah just dreaming!". 

All total fantasy that cloud our consciousness over and cause us to fall asleep in the event and the day.

Concentrate the essence in the event and you will see the benefits, if this key is one that works for you.

End (3651).

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...
