Political Values Notes - (5854)

The ray of politics exists and what gives this ray life are its values. These are the so-called values of politics.

These values of which politics works with, believe it or not, are actually quite high. 

These values descend from high up in the tree of life. They actually find their natural place in the higher spheres.

The question is what are these values? This is the objective of this post. 

These values are actually difficult to find directly. However, if we use duality we can read these values straight from what reality shows.

We can see what these values are if examine politics in the human field. As above so below. 

It is easier to see the values involved from the oppposite. That is look at bad politics. 

So if we look at bad politics in all its aspects and apply the opposite we will arrive at the divine values within politics. That is the vital organs of the Divine ray of politics.

So what does bad poltics do? 

Firstly, at elections, hope is built and later crushed. Promises are broken. Lies are made to cover up corruption, unfair policies are made, mismanagement/mispending of tax payer funds, the interests of the people are not served, conflict and unrest within the country, worsening foreign relations and so on. 

Then applying the opposite of the above points we get respectively: hope, trust, truth, justice, balance, service, peace, co-operation and so on.   

On a national level when these values are used correctly a whole country can propser but when used inccorectly a country can be ruined. There are many examples of this throughout history.

In summary, hope, trust, truth, integrity, harmony, unity, peace and productivity are its essential values.

These values are related to Jupiter in classic esotericism.

The values politics work with, are the values embodied by the higher parts of the Being. That is why in the field of politics in those who occupy high positons of human authority, the higher parts of the Being within the person are more active and brought forward to participate in the human work of the person within the field of politics. 

The issue is that because these values are so high and demanding to relate to, human beings fall short and misuse these values.

What comes with these values is power. Rightly so because these values are the ones that can do the most good or most harm.

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...
