Just Let it Fail to Fall: No No No! - (4964)

We can take this attitude at times in certain situations, yet for some of us, this could be an attitude that is  present a bit too often.


Where does this attitude come from?


I would like to say that it comes from a spiritual, ethical or moral fall.


It is an attitude that more often than not appears when things are faltering...


It is really an attitude from the "I" of self-compassion. Let's see why.


The "I" of self-compassion feels compassion for ourselves. However, the compassion it feels misses an important component. 


The important component that is missing is the inner force to rise up and fight for a change in our internal state that will put us onto a course towards a positive outcome.  


The missing component - the inner force to rise up - is a key part of the true compassion that the Buddha spoke so highly of. 


True compassion means to impart this force of 'rising up', to others and to ourselves.


So when we have that attitude of: 'just let it fail" it is the false compassion or the "I" of self-compassion as we would say in Gnosis, thinking and speaking within and through us.


In conclusion, when we hear ourselves saying "Ah let if fail", counteract it with that inner force to rise up within ourselves and fight to change our internal state.


When our internal states changes within us to one of "now let's get up" we will care about what is failing and we will correct that!  


That inner force to fight for a change in our internal state is a divine force that comes from our Atman - the warrior within us that is aligned with the forces of Mars, as Master Samael affirms.


End (4964).

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...
