Working on the Personality Notes 3 - (4598)

Notes Miscellaneous

We have our identity and centre of gravity in the personality.


The personality is false. There are many people in the world that have the same name as us. Our name, our nationality, our religion, our profession yet we are all different people. Our won real true and unique idetnity is our essence.


If we try to use our energy wisely we will discover that pacifying the personality is necessary.


The major factor that makes it false is relativity. If we dissolve the conditioning of relativity we remove a way for the personality to express itself.

 

The personality has good ponts such as communication adn punctuality however we may not transfer them to the work because our centre of gravity is not in the work or either we have to internalise these values which are not easy to do. For example to transfer punctuality to the work it would mean to work on our egos and the impressions straight away.

 

It is an energetic structure that has certain egos has its ingredients. It lives on for a while after we die. But it inevitably breaks down in time. Many ghosts are really the personlaities of people who have died which have not broken down yet.


The personality has its values. Its values are relative. Consciousness has absolute values. Expressing the ego in time and space in different ways. 


If our thinking and feeling can not be transferred to say the 1500's and be acceptable then it is personality. 


Usually personality is rigid like the egos.

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...
