Essence Learning, Animal Kingdom and Instinctive Centre - (5220)

Essence Learns in the Kingdoms  

As the essence evolves through the kingdoms: mineral. plant and animal it learns many lessons through time about the different values needed for human life. 


These lessons also serve as a basis upon which the essence when it reaches the state of human being can attempt the self-realization of the Monad. 


Animal Kingdom

When the essence is in the animal kingdom, it is learning about the different values of the essence. Each animal species offers the essence many opportunities to learn the different values. 


We can observe that each animal has it's major strengths and very particular characteristics. For example as a lion the essence learns courage, dominion, nobility, from a sloth one learns patience, from a fox one learns cunning and survival and so on.



If we observe the animal species we can make out for ourselves what the essence would learn from spending several lives in this species.


The Guru Devas

One of the role of the guru devas is to watch over and guide the learning of the essence as it moves through the different states and hierarchies in the kingdoms. When the lessons have been adequately apprehended by the essence, the essence progresses in its evolution.


Instinctive Centre

The lessons learned in the kingdoms are registered in the essence and in the instinctive centre.


From the animal kingdom the essence enters the human state with many residues of learning in the animal kingdom which remain in the instinctive centre and the essence.


The essence along the way in its human life has to clean all these animal residues from within the instinctive centre and from within the essence. 


In human life the essence works with the instincts to respond to life. The essence would draw upon the learnings it has within it to bring out the right value to answer the events of life.


Intervention of the Intellectual Centre Creates "I's"

The intellect centre causes the essence to exaggerate to either side the instincts and leads then to the conditioning or bottling of the essence which turns into fragmented and conditioned parts of essence we are the different egos.


It is the intervention of the intellectual centre and the residue of the Kundabuffer organ in the instinctive centre that creates the egos in an essence fresh out of evolution from the animal kingdom.

    Really interesting post. The essences must learn a great deal in their return trip through the animal kingdom as well. Hard lessons.

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...
