Symbols and the Consciousness - (5048)

It seems like there are certain living energies that move through the collective consciousness of human beings. 


It seems like these energies are universal and have their origin far above the minds of human beings. 


The Holy Grail is one such archetype. This is what Master Samael says about it.


"For sure, the Knights of the Middle Ages looked for that Chalice, from which the Christ drank in the Last Supper (symbol of the Yoni), however they never found it, this is obvious. But as a memory of those times, the quest for the Holy Grail, and the fight against the Moors, the Cup remained in the Olympics (the Cup  that is given to the winners in the Olympic Games, has the origin of that Cup). Do not forget that it represents the Yoni, that is, the female sexual organ. So, in the realm of the Suprasexual, the Chalice and the Spear are sacred..."



The archetype carries a certain life, which is what gives it, its perennial presence through the ages. If something has life, always implicit inside of something that life is a living principle.


It is this principle that is alive and moves through the consciousness and collective consciousness of the world.


It is also this principle that captures the imagination and heart of human beings, just Master Samael alluded to with the Holy Grail. 


The Holy Grail represents the Alchemy, sacred sexuality which is the key to all power and regeneration is the primordial quest of residing deep in all human beings. We all strive in various ways to empower, transform and rejuvenate ourselves.


The very interesting thing to note here, is that when an archetype moves into the individual consciousness of the human being it is first known to us by a symbol. 


Only by a symbol entering our consciousnesses do we get to know these archetypes or living principles.


The symbol of course is not the archetype, the energy and life is the real archetype, yet the symbol itself represents the reality of the archetype and also tells us more about qualities, expressions and nature of the archetype so that we can better understand it.


Our consciousness uses the language of symbols.

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...
