Weaknesses, Adversity and Rather Be a Cat

Weaknesses, Adversity and Rather Be a Cat - (4205)

Weaknesses so many people have. Many weaknesses we have. We can't deny that if we be honest with ourselves.

It is very positive to know our weaknesses. To accept them and work to comprehend them is even better.

It is helpful to know what a weakness is. I have heard that it is really a strength misapplied. I repeat a strength misapplied. When we reflect on this we see that there is truth to it.

So to correct the weakness we need to take that strength and put it into the right time and space and work to develop the right quality where our weakness currently is.

Many times we will find that the time and space for that strength/weakness was years ago and not now, and now it is time for something new... Sometimes we just need to move that weakness to other moments where it is a strength...

We need adversity to grow! Only our values come to work in adversity. Life is full of adversity and to grow what matters the most is that we can manage to get the strength anyhow we can to face the challenges that adversity brings to our life.

In times of adversity to want to be a cat where everything is taken care no problems or worries is a backward growth. Because a part of ourselves remembers involution and how simple, worry free and easy life is sliding backwards. But the consciousness also knows that the conscious human state is mainly won by overcoming problem after problem.

End (4205).

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...
