Separate Lust from Sex - (3631)

The two are not the same. One is the fire and the other the suffocating toxic smoke (lust).

Sex is a universal creative power. An origin of all things. Something that goes far beyond any human ideas. Something that stands as a reality by itself. Something whose energy surges through all of existence. 


As sex is the origin of all things it is in all things. Its energy, the vital life forces that it summons in its act of creation are imbued in everything.  

It is something vast, expansive and altogether cosmic and universal. It can take one everywhere. To the depths of degeneration, all over the world by populating it, and to the heights of regeneration.

Our issue with it, is that we bottle it up into images of the human sexual act, we further bottle it into various emotions, and later into uses, with most of them being subconscious.

Lust uses sex, but lust is not sex. Lust is a limited psychological creation. It is not an originator or a creative force. But a mechanical user of it.

Until Gnosis or a real esoteric doctrine, lust is the master of the sexual force. Lust is a whole collection of memories and imitations - a kind of informal education passed onto us by society through stories, movies, and the examples of others who in turn learned their sexuality from others before them.

All of the stuff that makes up lust, all that mind stuff that is packed inside lust, has little to do with the cosmic reality of sex.

With the esoteric teachings we can make our sexual force our own instead that which society, movies, books etc. have given us. We don't possess our sexual force really, it is not our own until we begin to transmute the sexual energy. 

We think it is our own because we can do what we want with it but tell me what you do with your lust has all been done before, but YOUR REALISATION HAS NOT BEEN DONE BEFORE BY ANYONE!!! 

End (3631).

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...
