Help to Reflect on the Case of Suicide - (5738)

It is always difficult to understand why a person commits suicide. We too often say: "They had everything, just why did they do it? Couldn't they have gotten help? Why didn't someone see the symptoms and watch over them?".

When we look at it entirely from the human perspective we realy don't find much understanding and therefore we are no closer to understanding what happened and why. 

When we think psychologically and esoterically about it we can understand something, and that understanding gives us some light, and that light gives us some relief.

There are some teachings in Gnosis about suicide that we can't tell others who are trying to process the loss of someone dear to them.

There are many other teachings that are very useful. Here are some of them that are helpful to process this.

Everyone through the course of their many lives on this Earth has to pass through many lessons. Some of those lessons are to do with death and dying. We all need to learn about death and be able to accept it and work through it. A part of that learning has also to do with the ways in which people die. We all truly learn through experience...

May be suicide is one of those lessons/experiences our soul may need.

The other consideration to take into account is the principle of cause and effect.

For something to happen like suicide, there has to be conditions put in place somewhere along the line for that to happen. For sure those conditions are both external and internal. 

This is where we may get stuck in the unfair and fair problem. If it was unfair we can trust blindly that what was unfair will be righted and compensated for. That in time, never ever fails.

The other balm is that when an essence leaves its body it is consciousness, it does not dissolve or disappear. It still is, and exists, however incorporeally. 

We can send all the love and light of our whole being to that essence and it will receive it much more powerfully than if it were to have a physical body.
 
What an essence that has left its physical body needs more than anything is the protection of love and the light of its Being to awaken, accept and realise its new circumstances and go to It's Being where all the light it needs is.

End (5738).

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...
