The Relative "Unfair" Feeling - (5989)

A big thing in the work on ourselves is knowing how to deal with the 'unfair' feeling. Here are some notes.

There are absolute and relative unfair. It's crucial to know the difference. Knowing this can save us so much suffering.

The absolute unfair does not hurt. We can do something physically and humanly about it and if it is truly unfair it will be rectified or we understand that clearly it is a karmic debt that we have to pay.

The relative unfair is what causes us all the grief.

Because the relative unfair only seems unfair to us and not the other person or people.

The relative unfair is also unfair relative to some belief, concept or attitude that we have.

To clear our suffering we have to find what in us it is unfair in relation to.

Often the things people say are unfair to the idea we have of ourselves or the perception we have of our intentions.

As soon as we know what it is unfair in relation to, we are almost free. Often when find the unfair reference point we will see that it is false or not true. 

Basically what is perceived as unfair hurts everyone and we all can't just let go what is unfair so easily. So we will explode at some point if we haven't addressed all these feeling of 'unfair'.

End (5889).

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...
