The Old Sovereignty of a Priest or a King - (3838)

In the Kings and priests of old there was bestowed upon them a touch of the Divine sovereignty. 

Even in this day there still is that touch of the sovereignty of the Divine, though its quality of manifestation is not like what it used to be in the old times now passed.

Upon a priest or priestess ordained and in a person crown King or Queen, that touch of Divine sovereignty was there for a purpose. That Divine gift laid down upon the person for the benefit of those they are to serve. 

That touch of the Divine sovereignty was and is a don, a gift of Divinity, which legend says conferred certain powers to better serve the people. The power to heal, the wisdom to guide and lead, the strength to protect, discernment to distinguish good from evil, foresight to avoid danger, love to help and care, the power to exorcise evil...    


As long as the priest, priestess, king or queen were to remain loyal to justice and the Divine those gifts would continue. 

Often these powers would only be seen in times of contrast. Or when needed. Even now that is when they come out and are seen most clearly. 

It is common practice even now days for royalty to visit the troops, to visit country men affected by hardship, to visit hospitals, to visit parliament, to visit struggling businesses and the people in the city streets. With each visit the morale of those in need would be lifted, like a little gift had been given to them. 

Even back in the old times the King and or Queen would be on the battle field and what an honour it was to fight by the King's side.

In the old times the King or Queen, priest or priestess had real healing powers that could heal magically the sick and wounded. The priests and priestesses had real courage and esoteric power to exorcise evil etc.

In the case of a priest that touch of the Divine gift that comes with his ordainment is very much from the Cosmic Christ. Remaining loyal to the Cosmic Christ allows a priest and priestess to retain those powers and honour the responsibilities one is charged with. A priest or priestess like the Christ the Son is an intermediary between the human and the Divine.

As Master Samael said once the greatest power is that of the honest man, because to the honest man all the higher Divine powers can side to. With one of those great powers being the Divine Law and the inner Being.

End (3838).

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...
