Know and Trust your Consciousness - (5271)

Introduction

I think that we have to get to know how our very own consciousness works.


Especially to know when it manifests and to know how to get it to manifest. 


This post presents a few notes in relation to this.


Slow

Maybe your consciousness is slow to work. Maybe it is quite quick. Your consciousness may take a few hours, a few days for it to start to give you answers, for it to open up, for it to release new insights and understanding about a problem, an issue, a difficulty or something you want to understand or may be it is different. However it is, it is very good to know it.


To know that your consciousness is slow in working, for example is good. If your consciousness is slow that means you have to wait and be patient. The reassuring thing is that it will work, you just need to wait and give it time.


So Natural

Our consciousness is so natural when it works. It is not sensational nor spectacular. Well sometimes but usually it is so simple and natural that we can not suspect that it was our consciousness that just gave us an answer.


It can manifest as an idea, as a new insight, as seeing something that you hadn't seen before, as a new angle on things, a new perspective, a new point of view, a new attitude, as stillness, as clarity, as the conviction to take action, as renewed strength, a new positivity, as something fresh that brings to us understanding, mini or micro revelations and a new approach as well as a solution... and the list goes on...


How

The first thing is to STOP!


Stopping the mind and the personality and any egoic process (that stops when we stop the mind anyway) in the moment on the spot. 


Doing this gives our consciousness the marvelous opportunity for it to work. We need to stop so to give it a chance to work for us. If we don't stop it can't work!


For example if we are worried about an event coming up in the future we have to tell ourselves: "ok lets just stop projecitng andf thinking right now, let's let go of all of this and relax, calm down and try very hard not to think." To even forget things is better, but that is a bit hard, but good if we can. It just requires more trust in our consciousness than we are used to giving it. We tend to trust our calculating and figuring out mind more than our consciousness.


Trust

We come to the conclusion that we have to trust our consciousness. Trust in its quality, trust in the time that it takes will be ok and trust that it will actually work. 


When we know the particular way in which our consciousness works we can begin to trust more in it. It actually does work and what it comes up with is really very good.


Just make sure that you stop and give your consciousness a chance!

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...
