Ninth Sphere Notes: Conditions to Fulfill - (4067)

Introduction - Ninth Sphere a Work of Mystical Death

The ninth sphere is certainly just not the sexual act, nor is it just transmuting during the sexual act. Well understood, it is a work of mystical death of a profound and serious type. 


The ninth sphere is where we face mystical death related to our very primordial and primitive forces. Which are the forces of creation, the forces which are at our very origin. Hence such a work affords us the authentic change as we are working with forces that originate and the ninth sphere is where the forces that originate swirl, simmer, bubble and have their point of activity. 


The ninth sphere is ruled by the Typhon. Whenever we are to deal with the Typhon we are dealing straight away with mystical death or psychological work. The Typhon is our psychological trainer.


A person who has transmuted all their life can still go to the abyss, because the essence is still fragmented and bottled. Transmuting without death makes a person a bomb ready at any moment to explode, as the transmuted energy feeds and feeds making the ego fat - i.e. strong and if the ego is strong we are weaker, more sensitive, more awkward, more full of desire, more inadequate etc.


In the ninth sphere is also where we face our debts to do with the Holy Spirit. Of course this is so, as when there is mystical death there is something always to pay. So everyone is enthusiastic about the work with sex but then it comes time to pay the debts and things get difficult to work even for the spring chickens, it doesn't matter, debts are debts and they are only cleared with payment, the best payment is mystical death.



Conditions

There are seven basic conditions. Explained a little below. These conditions come from a book written by V.M Lakshmi. There is no English translation for that book as yet.


One - Discipline

Discipline in controlling our centres and our mind above all. The discipline to do this every time. The discipline of diverting the attention to prayer.  


Two - Obedience to the Doctrine

Obedience to the doctrine, critically the Alchemical axioms of never spilling the hermetic glass and only using one hermetic vase. Plus so many other aspects of the doctrine especially those of the way Alchemy is practiced and how mystical death must always be sought. To be obedient one must first know the doctrine.


Three - Will, Discipline and Obedience

Will-Discipline-Obedience must all work together. We have to unite all three for effectiveness. Will is also conviction and emotion and yearning. It is also faith and trust in action.


Four - Who in the Past, Present and Future

To know and have understood: "Who have I been?", "Who am I?" and "Who do I want to be?". These are questions we must have clear in the work within the ninth sphere because the direct and complete knowledge of those questions prepares us as to what we will face (who have we been?) and allows us to know what we have to do (who we are now: aspirants to the light) that is following the precepts of the Alchemy and what we want to do (who do we want to be?) by maintaining our goal of dying in ourselves while working in the ninth sphere.


Five - "I am the way, the truth and the life"

To know that the Christ said: "I am the way, the truth and the life". in the ninth sphere there is no path we have to make our path. There is the path of others who have walked their way before us but for us there is no path. In the ninth sphere is where we start our path and make our path. Our path is individual but yet it is walked between the parameters and boundaries, laws and principles of the path. 


Six - Align Three Brains

Align the three brains with the essence. 


Will write more on this soon...


Seven - Each Atom for Each Cell

To know that each atom of our physical body is going to be transformed by each physical cell of sexual energy that we transmute. 


Will write more on this soon...


End (4067).

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...
