Notes on Good "Logical Confrontation of the Being" - (5373)

Introduction

This key from Master Samael is a tremendously powerful key. For me, it completes the process of comprehension. It gives the remedy within our Being to apply and do away with needing the ego.


Notes

The "Logical Confrontation of the Being". What this means to do is to bring the ego and the Being side by side. 


Which means to see what the ego wants and then to bring that into the field of the Being.  


As soon as we bring it into the field of the Being, generally speaking one of three things happen.



One thing that could happen is that one finds what the ego wants is valid and the the result of the confrontation is to seek the same thing through the Being and by the Being.


An example of this, is that a person may be single, wish to find a partner and be struggling with the "I" of lust. To find a partner is right. One must find a partner to work in the three factors. Lust can find a partner but it may not be the right one, creating much difficulty. Here one would frequently ask their Inner Being to help find them the partner that is the right one for the work. Patience, trust in the Inner Being and continued work on oneself would bring the right partner for the work. 


The second thing that could happen is to seek the same thing within the Being from the Being.


An example of this, is a person seeking approval from others. Here the person would look inside to feel what the Inner Being within indicates. One would work seriously on oneself and look inside to feel the contentment and approval of the Inner Being. One would ask to know if the Inner Being approves and is happy with their work, and one would also be more concerned with having the approval of their Inner Being and the master of the path.


The third thing that could happen is to drop that thing and work to give it to both ourselves and our Inner Being.


An example of this, is a person who is looking for love and importance from others. Here one would give love and priority (importance) to the Inner Being and in so doing they give it to themselves and come to realise that this is the more important than wanting love. Once we have love by having given it to ourselves, we can freely give it to others. Then the "I's" of self-love and self-importance are very weak and ready to be dissolved.


As you can see the logical confrontation with the Being provides us with a very practical change of perspective which has real external and actions implied by it.


It gives us the solution to the "I" we are working on.


It gives the remedy for us to apply going forwards to effectively weaken and do away with that "I" making it more than ready for dissolution by the Divine Mother.


End (5373).

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...
