Don't Squash the Negative Thoughts Open the Door Instead

Don't Squash the Negative Thoughts Open the Door Instead - (3744)

When we have thoughts that worry us, or disturb us or cause us some angst we tend to do our best to squash them.

This tactic we think is good but it is not really.

We feel a lot of tension, the thoughts fight and don't seem to go away and we are ignoring something vital about the thoughts because we deny ourselves a certain comprehension which is that they are only thoughts. Plus just to add salt to the injury those thoughts will come back another day.

The best tactic is to open the door and let them go outside.

Do not resist them just impartially and calmly ket them go. Like when you let a fly out it just flies off.

The best way to get rid of flies that have entered the house is not to fight them getting out the fly spray, accidentally spraying the cat's biscuits, the fruit bowl, the curtains and or using the fly swatter knocking over glass vases and statues and getting yelled at, but to let them go to a window and then open the window for them to fly out.

Same with the thoughts.

Try this is, it will lead you to getting separation from them and give you the ability to see those negative thoughts as just thoughts.

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...
