Wrong Reasons to be a Missionary - (4780)

Wrong reasons and right reasons. The right reasons for doing anything create a strong lasting foundation while the wrong reasons for doing something create a foundation that crumbles and has to be rebuilt or either stays too far crumbled.



Wrongs Reasons

Make some extra money - like a side hustle doing something interesting and people related.


Good excuse for and a way to rent or buy a bigger house.


Finally be able to leave the group and it's instructor and be free, no more having to travel to class and meet attendance requirements. Set your own times and dates, work from home and cancel when you like.


Be your own boss and do the things that you like, in the way that you want, and escape the always 'no' because of the semi-esoteric-political reasons.


Be different maybe 'above' your fellow students.


Excuse to travel the world and live in different countries, with local help and support from your students.


Be in the elite and have access to the 'top'. 


Stay in Gnosis - doing not doing much. 


Be able to command and hold authority.


Be in on the 'secrets'.


Receive all the information, articles, teachings, emails, notices and warnings...  


Get to attend special meetings.


Exercise your people and social skills, because you are a 'people person'.


In the end - the above are all life and materialism reasons. In short, the wrong reasons are: personality, mind and ego. They form a very weak foundation. 




Right Reasons

Love for humanity. Heart-felt yearning to alleviate the suffering of others.


To give to others what really has transformed our life so that others too can experience the same.


Love for the teachings and a way to repay the master and to fully the master in secret who brought you to them.


To be of service to the essence and spirit of others. 


Pay our karma in the best possible way - helping others.


Unify with the spirit of the Christ and with the spirit of sacrifice.


Help and serve the white lodge.


To honour and be a part of the great chain of giving and taking. We right now and taking hold of those walked the path before us and now as we walk we extend our hands backwards to make their path POSSIBLE!


To show the path to others. The path is shown through an initiate and the best thing closest to an initiate is a missionary.


To help the SUN, to be a part of its harvest and work for It so that Its harvest be great. Also to be a missionary is to be a nano sun, as the missionary radiates light, life and warmth with the help of the work and the teachings.


For the direct way to the Divinity. For love of Divinity. Knowing that we are all one that my suffering is also your suffering. I can not be free while you are suffering.


For love of light - to give light is to receive light.


To actively participate in carrying forward the mission that Master Samael began.


To fulfill the mission of our own Inner Divinity - which in part, is to teach and help humanity.


End (4780).

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...
