Power of the Glance and Planet Gazes - (3830)

Finish Off

As promised, here is the effort to finish off the previous post about the human glance.

Human Look

We speak through our eyes. Walking through the city is great. We think initially that we don't know anybody and no one speaks to us, but as soon as we are aware of how human beings speak with their eyes, all of a sudden there are all these people speaking to us. 

Some say nice things with their eyes and others don't. It doesn't matter too much what they say, what matters more, is what we say. A good question to ask is: "How is my look? Am I emitting kindness or amiablity?'.

So often because I don't have any coins with me to give to a person asking for money, what else can I give? A look of kindness and hope at least, then perhaps some friendly words. This is something, it won't buy him or her a meal but may uplift them a touch. Anyway those guys, not sure why, most of them don't eat. 

A look can communicate an entire stream of feeling, an answer to a question, a look can be a plea for help, a look conveys to us a bit about how a person is feeling and a bit about the emotional quality of their life.

In a look we can see an open door or a closed door.

That famous green eyes gaze of an Afghan girl that appeared in National Geographic.

In a look we can see if the perosn is transmuting and works often to activate their essence.

What I get excited seeing is, is the fight in the person's eyes, that intensity of the conscious effort they are making that melds with yearning and hope for freedom from one or another bothersome "I". That look that a missionary has when he/she is earnestly fighting for someone. 

A look has a certain magic, it can influence a person, enliven and light up their internal state or it can be like an attack that disrupts their energy and balance. It is not a physical contact, yet it has tangible inner effects on someone, that's the magical realm. No contact but real effects.

There can be times when two people can communicate with just a look. One can know what the other is feeling or wanting. 

So many things all start with a look. Things that are for better or for worse.

A relationship between two people begins with a glance.

For sure we can see the love people have for others, for a cause, for their work, for a person, an activity, its all in their eyes. The eyes are the windows to the soul.The virtues of the soul shine through our eyes.

A fight breaks out because of a look. You're giving me "the look", "why are you looking at me like that?", "Don't look at me like that!" etc. then it all begins...

The intensity of a person's emotion shows in their eyes. When one comes before an audience face to face, one gets a glimpse at each member, seeing a bit about their internal state. You can see the essence present in some, a negative state affecting another one, the shadow abyss in one (deeply identified), indifference and boredom in one, one with closed eyes, one upset but fighting to be free, another trying to hide something, distraction in another...

If a person wants to change their look they have to change in many ways their level of the Being.

Planet Gazes

It is said in astrology that there are the gazes of the planets. The gazes of the: Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, the Sun, Jupiter and Saturn.

Also it is said that the planetary influence that we are subjected to is the result of the planets glancing down at us at the moment we were born. Their glance marked us so, giving us the group of planetary tendencies that we now have in our life.

The moon gaze is a vague and dreamy look. The Mercury gaze is to have eyes that pry into everything. The venus gaze is a languorous look that will try to attract. The gaze of Mars is defiant and says "Be careful, I'm ready to take it up a notch if you are.". The gaze of the Sun is honest and full of light. The gaze of Jupiter is protective, assuring and connecting. The gaze of Saturn is distrustful and suspicious thinking that a person will do something to hurt.

The gaze we have depends somewhat on our ruling planet but perhaps more sometimes on our level of Being, the ego in our human machine and perhaps even our cosmic or planetary ray, and of course the presence of our essence.

So which look do you have?

Oh well that concludes for now the posts on the human gaze.

End (3830).

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...
