Those Princesses and Princes Who Don't Help at Retreats

Those Princesses and Princes Who Don't Help at Retreats - (3768)

Those princesses and princes who don't help at retreats 'estan orinando fuera de la pote' as they say.

There are always a few around. Its like spot the princess or prince who is too good to help, to stack up a few chairs, wash a few cups and plates, sweep up a touch of dirt etc.

What's going on with that stupid attitude?

Humanity is also right there in the retreat. A retreat is really the third factor containing the first factor. Looks like they don't care for either, so what are they doing in the retreat, pretending or what?

Probably those princes and princesses do something at home or at work, but choose not to do anything at the retreat when they could. They are royalty beyond the law of reciprocity, saying: "I don't expect to be served or helped" implying that they don't need to help because they don't want anyone to help them. But yeah come on, who prepared the food you just ate and who set out the chairs who you sat on and let's see you say that: "I don't expect any Gnostic person to help me when I am trouble", they'll be bitterly upset if not one helps them when they really need help and are out there crying.

Usually you see the older ladies getting right in there rolling up their sleeves, wiping the grease and grime out of the pots and pans, scraping away the messy food scraps, mopping the kitchen floor etc.

If the older ladies can get right in ther everyone else can too. Those older ladies don't belive in anyone being a princess or prince that's why.

True sometimes too many cooks spoil the broth but there is always moment or a few things that can be done to help.

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...
