An "I" Comes Back - (4211)

It seems that some "I's" really do go away when certain circumstances change in our life. 


Some go away for a good while then come back and some come back fairly quickly and some don't come back. 


Like when we start a new job, laziness goes away but may come back when we settle into the new job.


Anyway it seems that in general the big egos may go away but they will come back. This is something to keep in the back of our mind...


When they come back their return is interesting. Remember the ego is under the Law of Return, that is what it does best - return!


It's important to never forget that when an ego comes back and out it is for us to work on it and do away with it. That's the bottom line.


When an ego comes back we usually see it in our dreams first. That's a notification and time for us to get working!


There is usually some incident or event that triggers it or brings it up. Then impressions follow that further activate it. Then if we feed it, guess what? It's back!


So here's the key for us. If it has come back just recently - cut the impressions and don't feed it. If it is coming back act ahead of time and don't allow any events or incidents or impressions to come your way or enter your psyche.


Doing this will give you space between you and it and your work on it will be more effective! Because you have separation!

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...
