Law of Return Notes - (4639)

The Law of Return is a tremendous law. A great Law that operates cosmically as well on a microscopic and even smaller scale.


It's clearest examples of manifestation can be seen physically in the cosmos and in physical life on a planet.


Every cycle that we can witness is due to the Law of Return. Day and night, months, planetary years, sidereal years, the seasons etc.


Time is directly derived from the action of the Law of Return. The gap between the return of the sunrise is called by human beings day and night. The mind of human beings divides day and night into 24 hours, and then each hour is divided into 60 minutes and so on, giving us the conventional measurement of time.


The Law of Return is round. So much in nature is round. Time is round, our planets are round, much of nature is round or spiraled, our heads are round, our life is round even...


The Law of Return is the one that functions to return a process, journey, trajectory back to its original point of departure.


The beginning is always the same as the end plus the experience learned in the cycle. We all return to the same point but with much more love and wisdom learnt along the way.


Nature works all based on cycles. Cycles of migration, cycles of reproduction, cycles of death and renewal, the water cycle etc. In fact the life of nature is about maintaining these natural cycles.


It can be seen as the way the Absolute has given us to learn. We all learn by repetition and in octaves. Each repetition allows us to learn something new or something that was previously hidden. The esoteric process works this way. Purification occurs in octaves via repetition and the Law of Octaves. The seven stones are a good example of this.


If we are conscious we can reduce the number of repetitions to a minimum. If we are not conscious and we don't want to learn the number of cycles increases greatly.


The Law of Return works on the ego. Not on the free essence and not on the personality.


The reason why we are subjected to the Law of Return is because our essence is trapped and conditioned and we need successive lives - repetitions to learn the lessons and dissolve it.


Involution and Evolution work based on the Law of Return.


Creation works by means of the Law of Return. All of creation returns to the place from where it departed from. - the Absolute.


The Law of Return takes us back to the places we have departed from. The basic feeling of Return is nostalgia.


The saying: "The criminal always returns to the scene of the crime" is very interesting and has truth to it.


We start life as a baby where we can't do anything for ourselves and at old age we end our life in the same way. The end meets the beginning. 


When we study the metallic planets of Alchemy we see how our life returns. After the age of Saturn we repeat life's early stages of Saturn and Moon, Saturn and Mercury, Saturn and Venus and we come under the same influences as we did when we were younger.


We can return physically but be different psychologically. 


The Law of Return works on us the minute we make a start to a journey. That is why many journeys return back home to start again. 


To defeat the return - a degree of conscious will is needed.


In every cycle where the Law of Return functions there is a maximum and a minimum. When the degree of conscious will is at a maximum the Law of Return is at its weakest. As soon as the maximum amount of conscious will has been given, the Law of Return begins to function. The Law of Return  functions and as it does it accumulates in intensity, finally achieving its end, which is to take us back to the original point of departure. 


End (4639).

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...
