Jump in a Coffin - (3618)

Sorry I know that this is not really the right time to post a title like this... 

With the physical death of many around the world so close, it sort of inspires this practice.

I think it is good to now and then in our life, voluntarily have a look at death.

So I say to do this by jumping into a coffin. Most of us can't because there is no coffin around to do that and coffins are very difficult to come by, plus they are also very expensive.


So in our imagination lets jump into a coffin and lets imagine we have died. 

So like everything in our life has ended. Gnostic group, Gnostic activities (our work with our essence continues though), our job and its responsibilities, family, relationships, pet care, daily life routine... Oh God what a relief I am feeling just now!
  
As soon as we jump into our coffin and do this in earnest, death begins to reveal itself to us in the way we most need to understand it and apply it in our life in this moment. Death speaks to us, teaches and guides...

All our problems will end too, all the people pleasing and negotiations, all the people disgruntled at us by our decisions and conduct etc. All that ends... 

In the moment of death it seems, that much of the effort that we made made in life was a waste, because here right now at the moment of death none of those things that we put so much time into really matter or are not helping us... 

End (3618).

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...
