Gnostic Wisdom

Introduction Here is a post on the ray of love. It is a collection of notes organised into categories similar to previous posts. Birth of Venus by Sandro Botticelli (1485-1486) Venus - The Goddess of Love and Beauty arriving on land, born of the sea. In the Cosmic Sense So much has gone wrong on the Earth because of human beings not knowing how to love - or rather forgetting how to love.  The ray of love is needed to keep creation harmoniously together and orientated towards the Common Cosmic Father.  From love, is derived all the values that are needed in creation. All these values are related to love and contain love. Love is mostly all that we need. Love always presents the solution, it is the simplest solution, the most immediate and if there is conscious love all around, it is understood as the best. It is our minds and our lack of love that really complicate things and make things close to impossible. It is the role of the Angels of Love to teach humanity once again abou...

We, I included, tend to fight and protest about our circumstances... We, I included, tend not to accept fully our circumstances.  'Shoulding all over ourselves' about how things 'should' be better... Thinking esoterically m.m.m says, the circumstances that we have are the best ones for us and our Inner Being to realise ourselves. Our circumstances are the best combination of favourable cosmic and human factors as well karmic considerations which actually are the unique solution to the complicated equation of our spiritual realization. The bottom line is to deeply accept our circumstances for us to give the correct answer to them, which is the correct value that we can only give by working hard on ourselves End (4836).

Here are some notes about prayer. Notes ⧊ ⧊ Master Samael says that nature obeys the stronger force. When we pray and we don't unify ourselves we are not the stronger force. ⧊ Master Samael taught that what happens when we pray not being in the third state of consciousness, is that we ask for something that we have not consulted all the other egos for. As they have not been consulted and are are not interested in what we are asking for they rebel and ask for the opposite of what we are asking for. Their rebellion becomes the stronger that nature responds to. ⧊ The above reason is why many times we get the opposite of what we are asking for. Therefore it is very important to know how to pray. ⧊ The way to pray Master Samael taught is to first become aware of ourselves, entering the third state of consciousness and align the three brains with the prayer using the following formula. * Third state of consciousness is a state of self-observation and self-awareness (self-remembering). ⧊ ...

We don't know much about cosmic life.  How to be a cosmic citizen is knowledge we lack... We only know about terrestrial life as set up by human beings. These days we even don't know about a natural life more aligned with the Earth and its rhythms and laws. Gnosis teaches us how to live a cosmic life. Albany, Western Australia, Lighthouse Gnosis or the revolution of the consciousness can not be against life itself. To be against the "What Is", The Real would be absurd.  What Gnosis does for us is to help us to see beyond the human made life and so liberate us from the structures in our psyche that keep the way of life established by fallen human beings in place.  Every life has its laws and therefore its duties. Gnosis teaches us about these cosmic duties, which align us with cosmic life.  The Partkdolg Duty of the Being is the start of becoming a cosmic citizen and living a cosmic life.  When we fulfill the cosmic duty we are starting to live cosmically.

For teh person that wants to die in themselves what m.m.m said last night is gold.  The following is what he said: He said that mystical death is not a practice it is an attitude , which impregnates a person completely. He went on to say that this attitude is very visible in a person who has it.  It is what is needed to really die within ourselves. We must embrace mystical death emotionally. The intellect is not enough, it is not powerful enough for the work of mystical death. To embrace mystical death makes the spirit of mystical death to enter inside of us. Imbued with the spirit  of mystical death the attitude to die before every event of life, no matter how painful or apparently wrong or unjust, naturally appears in us. The attitude of mystical death allows us to resort to mystical death before any event and in any circumstance of our life. It simply allows us to die within ourselves, and that is really the way that we die within ourselves. Any other way just does not...

Hope:             Our prayer and our power to not give up and continue towards our yearnings. Faith:               Our intensity and strength in ourselves and our Inner Being. Love:              O ur happiness and delight (joy). Trust:               Our source of peace and way of intimacy with our Inner Being. Goodness:     Our foundation for doing everything. Justice:           O ur measuring stick by which we assign proportions. Wisdom:        O ur shield - to protect from error, danger and problems.  Truth:               O ur guiding light on the esoteric path and in life. "Hope, faith, love and trust are the fundamental values that sustain an awakened soul." (m.m.m.). End (4795).

Master Samael says that if the Being wants His realisation, it is sure that He will achieve it! This is because the Being, our Being is a triumpher! If there is something that the Being wants for Its realisation we can trust that It will get it. End (4939).

I confess I could not stand anything to do with a monastery, be it Christian, Buddhist, orthodox you name it. I was so happy receiving the "Four Ways" talk when I learnt that I didn't have to live in a monastery somewhere to walk the path back to God. The catch is, the more one works on oneself the more one sees how much of a distraction life is. One would progress in awakening and psychological work a lot more if one had big blocks of time at their disposal to use in meditation, prayer, contemplation on the consciousness etc. and a whole lot less to worry about like work, bills, food, house, car, people, internet, phone, family etc. So one is in life, being tossed around by the forces of distraction and one is getting nowhere slowly. The only resort is to make one's life a monastery. That is whatever one does, make it into a practice that will serve the improvement of awakening and the furthering of our psychological transformations. Driving, typing, talking, walking...

This post is to aid our understanding, not to justify our egoic actions or processes. This year the head of the Gnostic Society was giving a talk and he said that the Being of everyone is flexible with us.  That is flexible with our mistakes and errors. If that were not the case we may not be able to progress along the path towards the Being. The Being may just get too disappointment and abort using us to realise Itself. In being flexible the Being has to be patient and wise, knowing what can be done to remedy certain errors and knowing how to make us to walk safely being very imperfect.  End (3735).

Nature Nature through Her elements has Her way of dealing with our sufferings. Water as in a flowing river carries our sufferings away. Fire as it rises and expands consumes and transforms our sufferings into cinders. Air as in swift gusts of wind dissipates and blows our sufferings away. Earth patiently crushes our sufferings, absorbing and diminishing them until they are of little effect. Us Each of us within our nature have these elements, and the abilities that these elements have to deal with our sufferings. Most of this natural intelligence is programmed into our instinctive centre, and through our instinctive centre this intelligence operates. By our star sign we have a natural tendency to lean towards on one or more of the four elements over others. Have a check if this is true for you. Each start sign has an element. The intelligence of water is to let go of suffering, let life flow and greet life anew, with a new inner state, flowing ever on like a stream.  The intelligen...

Don't forget that all of us in the work have somewhere to take refuge.  Don't forget that! One refuge is no-thinking and going to our heart temple. Another is the guru, another is nature, another is prayer to the inner Divinity, another is meditation, another is our consciousness, another is DEFINITELY NOT SELF-COMPASSION! Sorry for that jolt, but it self-compassion doesn't help. We all know that too well.  Be there in the heart temple talking to the Divine Mother or Father, opening the heart, explaining things and surrendering to them, what pertains to them, and taking force for what pertains to us. In refuge, the essence beseeching through our heart wishes for strength and wisdom, this is what we maybe we can ask for and consciously seek in refuge. We may not receive an answer but it is being processed in our background. It is being worked on by our interior Divinity. P.S Having previously built an image of our heart temple in our imagination helps us handsomely when in ...

Go yellow! This is a quality of real beingness. Well, maybe that is a bit much to say, being daring though, I can say that it is a real human being quality. Hmmm, even who knows, some animals are gentle with their own young and even gentle with other animals, so I don't know really what class of quality it is: spiritual, human, animal, maybe it is all three and is something universal. It is definitely something that exists in life, in nature among nature's creatures and it certainly has its place.  Macho men don't like anything to do with it (at least in public view), but none the less it is a quality of the Being or essence of everyone, and many times it is necessary that it be used. To help others and also to help ourselves. In dealing with a difficult and complicated issue we need it. In working on a very painful defect or memory we need to use it combining it with constancy and focus. The practice of Alchemy is a gentle practice. The third Logos is a gentleman Master Sa...

What is true until the heart is seen? When the heart appears things become real. What appears in the heart has presence and life. What appears in the mind is like a leaf fallen from a tree that the wind will soon sweep away. Heart is different to emotion. Emotion arises from thought and emotions too go as do thoughts. Many times with our petitions the Masters wait to see heart. Sometimes depending on the petition our heart can be seen and the help conceded.  Sometimes, we have to be tested to see if there is really heart in us or not.  These tests take many guises. Usually though the central principle is that with adversity, what is in the heart reveals itself and what is true in the heart prevails, the mind and emotion do not often triumph over adversity. Above all the masters look for heart. The heart is not a whim, nor a fade and why to concede to a fade or whim even if it be an esoteric fade or whim? End (3667).

The teachings say that the Kundalini is intimately related to our nervous system. Our body has several nervous system with several different branches. However, there are really three very large nervous systems. Reminding us of the Law of Three. Our spinal column is related to the central column in the tree of life. The Kundalini is related most of all to the central nervous system. When the kundalini is awake and active it balances the whole nervous system by intensely activating the central nervous system, which as it is the central column of the nervous system, acts to balance all other parts of the nervous system. The central nervous system is a mystery for the scientists, they don’t know really what all the nerves are for. Esotericism says that the many subtle channels in the central system are for the Kundalini. Through which it can send its energy, to influence all parts of the body and brain. The kundalini begins in the Muladhara chakra and ascends through the cauda equina in o...

A couple practicing the Alchemy has a high value. A high cosmic value. A couple who are practicing the Alchemy are fulfilling a cosmic function. Yeah yeah we may think - cosmic cosmic - heard that before. But it is true, how can we say that it is not of cosmic significance? Read on a little, I'll explain...  The alchemy is the sexuality of the Monad and is primarily for the Monad. Of course the two human beings and the Earth benefit, though ultimately it is for the Monads, and the Monad is a cosmic entity who has a  cosmic destiny and the work of alchemy fulfills that destiny. The realisation of any Monad enhances the absolute, and how can we say that the absolute is not cosmic? We can't right? The Alchemical couple in scientific terms are a circuit through which energy can flow. In an alchemical couple the energies that flow in that circuit are spiritual and of high voltage. A circuit is always constructed for energy to flow, and flow or circulation only ever exists between t...

Certain endevours that we undertake in our work really depend totally on certain values within us not faltering, actually, they are values of our Being that can  not fail . We can not make those values to fail! We have to hold onto that as if it were the last thing we have! The payment of a certain karma depends entirely on key values not failing ! There are many examples of this. Master Samael said in Mexico that if he were to lose even a drop of sexual energy the whole Gnostic movement back then would fail. In a guru and disciple relationship, rebellious and obstinate pride for example can not be made to go out of control. Humility, balance, respect etc. must be active vibrating above all other factors in the disciple.  In a Alchemical marriage, transmutation, supra-sexuality must take wings and be above all other forms of sexuality.  In the third factor, disinterested love and sacrifice must be more present than any other elements and so on... End (3660).

Master Samael says that the chicken's egg has special properties related to the powers of Jinas. He says the egg reminds us of the Orphic Egg or the cosmic egg from which creation gestated in and sprang forth from. Wonderful - so how do you make sense of that? Well, marvelous things take place inside an egg. From the fecundated yellow yoke and the transparent white albumen processes of forming and congealing and drawing in from space-energy take place. So many new substances have to be made, organs, feathers, bones, claws, feet, a beak, eyes - my goodness me where does all those substances and atoms come from, that make those new parts of the chick. Magical processes really. It is a process of condensing energy down into matter.  So with Jinas the reverse process occurs one goes from matter to energy. So the egg having the powers of creation, the egg also has the reverse - the power of absorption back into the higher dimensions, and this precisely is what Jinas is about. The sexual...

Kneeling down and praying to our Being in a manner of openness and transparency of heart helps us a lot in dispelling some strange attitudes that we can develop towards our inner Being.  Before we kneel down open up and pray with transparency of heart we can have some flavours going on in our mind and emotions. What are those flavours? Perhaps: complaint, bitterness, frustration, distrust, doubt, incapacity of understanding, too hard, etc. It is good to notice them and mostly praying to the Being with love dispels them. after praying it is good I think to evaluate if those strange flavours have gone. If not we have to get to work. Regular non-mechanical, (praying with essence) prayer keeps the relationship with our Being going well. Prayer is also action. Action is a living prayer.   End (3644).

If time after time we have begged our interior Divinity for an answer and we have not received anything. Then we have to turn to the Guru and ask. The Guru is one that can contact our interior Divinity and knows already our destiny and can answer us. The guru has the quality of answering directly, clearly and quickly, sometimes immediately. Well sometimes the Divinity gives a person intuition to find out the answer for themselves. End (3641).
