What We Need Most is to Believe We Can

What We Need Most is to Believe We Can - (5954)

Believing in ourselves is something that we all do before we truly start something.

We often don't start something becasue we don't believe in it or that we can do it.

To believe we can do something is really the biggest milestone.

Once we believe that we can do something, results are not too far away. There is no doubt about it, we are going to make head way towards whatever it is that we believe we can do.

For all the great things that human beings have done, there was a point where they believed that they could do it and so they did.

No one achieves something believing all the way that they can't do it.

We may start out not believing that we can, but there is a point that we start to believe.

Often that point is when conscious faith turns on. It is the point that through our persistence or struggles we catch a glimmer of light and this glimmer turns into a knowing that our hope is real.

Truly a large part of the battle is won when we believe that we can do something. This really applies for everything both human and spiritual in nature.

Do we believe for example that we can dissolve an ego and we can succeed in being our true nature?

Always as soon as we believe we can are close to our aim. This is becasue we have just created a cause within us for us to do it. If there is a cause for something within us our whole system will follow that law of cause and effect and make happen whatever it is.

Believing we can do something is the same as creating the cause for it to happen within ourselves.

To believe we can do something comes from hope.

Once we have hope the next thing to do is to focus our attention, time and effort to produce steps towards our goal. That is the most important thing of all - to take active steps. Even baby steps but steps.

The steps we take then form our path and learnings towards the goal.

While there is hope, don't give up.

Every failure and returning to the fight is a step closer to success.

By sincerely believing we can, we have will-power at our disposal and we will keep trying until we succeed.

End (5954).

Kundry from Parsifal Unveiled - (3948)

The character Kundry is very unusual, and has a mysterious role in Wagner's opera: Parsifal. As master Samael explains, Kundry represents the archetype of the feminine. That mysterious yet extraordinarily powerful force that can raise a man to the heights of realisation or sink him into the abyss of failure. Kundry in the opera takes on a few different opposing roles, one where she is the temptress that seduced the king of the Holy Grail: King Amfortas giving Klingsor the opportunity to steal the Lance of Longinus and wound his side. She then helps the wounded king searching for balms to heal the wound in his side, then she is again the temptress that tries to seduce Parsifal the young knight who tries to redeem the lost lance. When Parsifal is victorious destroying the castle of Klingsor Kundry changes roles to become a servant of the holy grail and the knights of the order of the holy grail. These are all aspects of the powerful feminine force that is varied and has many differe...

What is the Kundabuffer or Kundartiguador? - (405)

Introduction Gurdjieff and Master Samael spoke much about the Kundabuffer organ and a lot of what Master Samael said is pretty clear. This post is just about going over some of what he said. In the Quinto Evangelio, Master Samael also revealed many more details which do not appear in his books. Note, the Qunito Evangelio is a two tome compilation of transcriptions of many recordings of informal talks that Master Samael had with his students. English and Spanish Terms There are these two terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer which refer to the same thing. Kundartiguador is Spanish and Kundabuffer is English. I believe it was Gurdjieff who first introduced these terms in his book “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson”. I believe “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson” was not originally written in ether Spanish or English. So these terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer are translations where the word “Kunda” could not be translated and the ending "buffer" could b...

When We Speak Bad About Ourselves - Because of Self-Compassion - (2963)

Even Just Thinking Negative When we just even think, let alone speak about ourselves in a negative way, thinking things like: how we are really this and that bad and that is not at all what others see, that we are in capable, worth little, know nothing, can't do this and that, fail at this and that, a liar, a dreamer the list goes on... We can be 100% sure that self-compassion is behind this because pride by itself would never allow this. In a case like this self-compassion taps into what pride hides from itself and others and exposes it. Feeling that it is doing job at ruining ourselves. Why It Does What It Does? Self-compassion does this sort of thing to avoid reprimand and to extract compassion from others. Self-compassion is about getting compassion for ourselves through others. It is set-up in relativity, using others as a reference point. Really the best thing that you can do for a person who is pitted against this ego is to ignore them, so that they can fa...
