A Way to Overcome Mechanical Associations - (4148)

Mechanical associations are very powerful. Sometimes much more powerful thatn we give them credit for. 


Mechanical associatons tend to work at the subconscious level within us. Meaning we are not very aware of them at first.


For example going out to a Chinese restaurant can make us feel uneasy, and we don;t know why for years until one day it clicks, that we have been subconsciously associating Chinese restaurants with the time that we suffered anxiety and could not eat very well, and because of that association we think we are going to feel unwell again as we did back in those times.


We just want to overcome them and get over them as quickly as possible. We can do it by essentially training.

 

A way, out of the many ways to overcome mechanical associations is to go to that place, do that activity etc. and then do the exact opposite of what the association points us to do.


We have to repeat and repeat doing the opposite for our brain and mind to undo the old association and  finally create a new one.


Another way to is work with the Divine Mother asking her to jhelp undo it and another way is to use our consciousness to make us see and understand over and over again that we are experiencing a new reality that is different and new and not the past.

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...
