Sensual Love Posts: 3.3) Buddha and the Serpent Legend - (3891)

This post concentrates on the practical work aspects of the legend.

So here are the practical lessons.

Keep seeing sexuality from the spiritual side and keep oneself in the spiritual side and all will go fine. Deal with sexuality from above from within the spiritual, that is with a spiritual goal, using methods that direct the sexual currents inwards and upwards operated with a clear mind.

To free ourselves from the tight grip of sensuality we need to remember the help of the Divine Mother. We have to remember the spiritual aspect. The best way is make the human lower nature smaller, less active and call the superior.

We need to die in the desires and wrong functioning of the sexual centre with the help of the Divine Mother.

We have to contend with desire and the wrong functionings of the sexual centre using transmutation and the death of the egos sending the impulses, respectively. Otherwise the related egos come back and back again causing us problems.

We also need to call upon the spiritual teachings to do with sexuality. The main and essential one being the transmutation. The teachings provide us with a way to balance sexuality, to sublimate it and enter into the sphere of its superior aspect, which is the fire, the divinity within.

The humility aspect is very important because the serpent is so astute and it can get us when we least expect it and so if we are thinking we are heroes we will be struck easily becoming entrapped once again.

With humility we are always aware of our strengths and weaknesses and we develop an attitude of being ready and aware whenever we need to protect ourselves from danger. When we think we are going well that is not such a good way of thinking it is always best to be wary, on the look out within us for imminent danger.

Prayer, transmutation and psychological death solve this problem. Really embracing the transmutation with a joy greater than what the lower nature can give us, decisively solves this issue.

Kundry from Parsifal Unveiled - (3948)

The character Kundry is very unusual, and has a mysterious role in Wagner's opera: Parsifal. As master Samael explains, Kundry represents the archetype of the feminine. That mysterious yet extraordinarily powerful force that can raise a man to the heights of realisation or sink him into the abyss of failure. Kundry in the opera takes on a few different opposing roles, one where she is the temptress that seduced the king of the Holy Grail: King Amfortas giving Klingsor the opportunity to steal the Lance of Longinus and wound his side. She then helps the wounded king searching for balms to heal the wound in his side, then she is again the temptress that tries to seduce Parsifal the young knight who tries to redeem the lost lance. When Parsifal is victorious destroying the castle of Klingsor Kundry changes roles to become a servant of the holy grail and the knights of the order of the holy grail. These are all aspects of the powerful feminine force that is varied and has many differe...

What is the Kundabuffer or Kundartiguador? - (405)

Introduction Gurdjieff and Master Samael spoke much about the Kundabuffer organ and a lot of what Master Samael said is pretty clear. This post is just about going over some of what he said. In the Quinto Evangelio, Master Samael also revealed many more details which do not appear in his books. Note, the Qunito Evangelio is a two tome compilation of transcriptions of many recordings of informal talks that Master Samael had with his students. English and Spanish Terms There are these two terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer which refer to the same thing. Kundartiguador is Spanish and Kundabuffer is English. I believe it was Gurdjieff who first introduced these terms in his book “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson”. I believe “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson” was not originally written in ether Spanish or English. So these terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer are translations where the word “Kunda” could not be translated and the ending "buffer" could b...

When We Speak Bad About Ourselves - Because of Self-Compassion - (2963)

Even Just Thinking Negative When we just even think, let alone speak about ourselves in a negative way, thinking things like: how we are really this and that bad and that is not at all what others see, that we are in capable, worth little, know nothing, can't do this and that, fail at this and that, a liar, a dreamer the list goes on... We can be 100% sure that self-compassion is behind this because pride by itself would never allow this. In a case like this self-compassion taps into what pride hides from itself and others and exposes it. Feeling that it is doing job at ruining ourselves. Why It Does What It Does? Self-compassion does this sort of thing to avoid reprimand and to extract compassion from others. Self-compassion is about getting compassion for ourselves through others. It is set-up in relativity, using others as a reference point. Really the best thing that you can do for a person who is pitted against this ego is to ignore them, so that they can fa...
