Responsibility in the Word

Responsibility in the Word - (4171)

This post comes from something I am currently working on. I have not by any stretch mastered it but I am trying to go towards that point.

I have observed this from a long time ago that certain people are very strong and seem to always come out on top in any kind of discussion or argument. I always wanted to know why.

One day not too long ago it dawned on me, that such a person is one that takes a higher degree of responsibilty in their written or spoken word. Plus they could have other qualities present and active in them but never mind about that. That's not the topic of this post.

I feel that to know that we are responsible for our word produces a change in us, and is actually very powerful because it calls us to be conscious of our word yes as expected but that's not really the important thing that it calls us to be conscious of.

I feel it calls us to be conscious of our psychological processes of which the word is the end result.

To be responsible for our word has to mean so many things as one can imagine. One of the things I see that it would mean out of the many is that we would be very alert of our inner processes that they be correct. Because if our thought and feeling are correct then our word will naturally be that way too.

Another thing is that what we say we will be responsible for the effects that they unfold. Another one is to not contradict our word. Another one is that we would take care that our spelling and grammar and way of speaking is correct so as to give a clear as possible protrayal of what we really mean and that it is receved clearly as well.

As we will also see the consequences that our word will unfold for ourselves and for others, responsiblilty of our word calls forsigfht into action. I mean to be responsible for our word we need some ability to look into the future to see what our words will unfold. If we are not happy with what our words could unfold the question naturally arises to ourselves, do we want to be responsible for those difficult consequences?

Responsibility with our word also calls us to correct what we have said if we have made errors.

End (4171).

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...
