Analyse the Question of Pleasing Desire

Analyse the Question of Pleasing Desire - (4986)

Here is a question that may enter our minds from time to time.

We feel desires about this and that, and naturally the question comes to mind: satisfy the desire or not satisfy the desire?

If we satisfy the desire we will feel satisfied? Or an ego will feel satisfied? But then we ask would that be good to do that or not good to do that?

If we don't satisfy the desire we will feel unsatisfied and lacking, missing something, but then we feel that we want our consciousness to come and fill that lacking with new comprehension, which is a superior kind of satisfaction that brings what is called contentment.

Comprehension is like the satisfaction of the consciousness.

Comprehension created by the consciousness, counter balances the lacking feeling of not pleasing desire.

Many times when we do please a desire we feel afterwards that it is a fault on our part or a fault on the part of our consciousness. A fault where we should have listened to our consciousness because it knew that the consequences would not serve us well, or a fault where our consciousness wasn't made to work to have shown us that the consequences would not be beneficial.

The general formula or way to get the consciousness to speak, is to not fulfill the desire and then to bring our consciousness: reflecting, contrasting, comprehending why not to please the desire by seeing the results/consequences.

The above is a very interesting quote. A really good one in fact. The many desires that we have are those that can be satisfied so easily so quickly, so they are mundane, mediocre etc. The desires that can't be satisfied are the spiritual ones as we work all of several lifetimes to arrive at satisfying them.

It's always best to convert dark to light. To not go with the subconscious. The subconscious creates sufferings later on and miscommunications, whereas the conscious creates ease because it makes the light to shine and we feel comfortable in the light as all is clear to us and to others.

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...
