Ill-Will Affects Perception - (4608)

Consciousness is perception. We want clear perception. Our perception always works, the question is what glasses is our perception working through?


If it is ill-will our perception will always be wrong and very unbalanced. 


Ill-will sees eveything as bad but not everything is bad. It can not see duality.


If our perception be through good-will we will not get things as wrong as when our perception is taken through ill-will.


With good-will as our perception the effort to correct it is not as great as when it is ill-will.


Ill-will sees eveything in a particular way. In the way that everything is an error, wrong, negative and consequently this leads to the creation of many negative attitudes and stand points. 


There are much stronger and heavier egos that keep ill-will in place than good-will.


If we have a choice between good-will and ill-will we should chose good-will. That is for our benefit. 


We don't choose good-will because we think it is to benefit the other person or others which seems unfair. This is true but it is not the major truth that is at play, it is the minor truth.


The major truth is that good-will benefits ourselves the most. With good-will we can transform things, turn things around and with good-will as with ill-will we can touch our inner causal world so to make changes in ourselves and in others.

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...
