Gnostic Wisdom

Our body has intelligence and consciousness. Our organs have intelligence and consciousness. It has to be that way becasue they are alive and they contain atoms and every atom is a triad of matter, energy and consciousness. Conventional science does not recognise the consciousness in each organ as yet.  The atomic consciousness of our immune system has a really positive attitude, one of "let's go and face this invading force and we will restore harmony". There’s no negativity like: “not a again, fed up of that, tired of that etc. etc.”. It’s all positive confidence. The consciousness of a virus has the attitude to create a disturbance.  End (5728).

When we lack something we compensate for it in our personality. For example, if we are poor we try to show outwardly that we are not poor.  We make it important (a value) to present well, with expensive clothing and accessories, even with an expensive car, that one would have others think we are not lacking, which in turn makes us to feel that we don't lack. In general, the many values that we have in our personality are there because of compensating for lacking something.  The other thing is that we work like crazy, and sacrifice like crazy for those values (ways of compensating), which at the end of the day boil down to be 'a feeling about oursleves'. A remedy to all of this is to feel as our essence. Be our essence. End (5727).

This is a really powerful key that when we work with it, helps us change. Applying this key, we start to understand that the 'strange' reactions of others, whether it be their annoyances, impatience, fears or habits, all have a reason, and are not so strange and bothersome afterall. It seems, that us not understanding the reactions and behaviours of others, is really the problem or issue that bothers us so much. However, we think it is the other person that bothers us. Working with it, we start to feel that we don't need so many explanations from others. We also begin to stop finding them 'silly' or 'wrong'. Another thing that happens when we work with this key is that we shake our head in disbelief so much less when we see the reactions of others. We develop psychological maturity. Understanding others is different to justifying others.  From understanding others, we can help them to modify their reactions if they so wish. Justifying others does not give us...

One essence sincerely yearning for light has tremendous power. This power can move people and circumstances to it, to receive the light it yearns for. We never know how one essence sincerely yearning can bring people to it from very far away. One essence sincerely working on him or herself has the tremendous power to affect others near and far away from him or her. This power at first is invisble to human eyes, yet it works through space and time modifying and creating casues, which then cascades into human events, which is what we see. This power reveals itself to us through many small and large synchronicities. The result of all of this is that the sincere yearning of the essence is really something that taps into the power to create circumstances.  End (5725).

A Way Through Life If we were to take any human profession or occupation, and we are to look into the mastery and perfection of it, we would see that psychology plays a very important part. If we were to look into mastering and perfecting psycholgy we would see that the esoteric or spiritual plays a very important part. It is like the Absolute gives us a chance at inner discovery and the work of inner realisation through the occupation of our human life. We all just need to receive the knowledge that there exists a path of development leading towards the deep realisation of our Inner Being/self.   In other words, a path can be paved through our human life, working to make it a perfect work of art for the purposes of furthering a transcendental aim of self-realisation. Leaving out the purpose of self-realisation makes the work perfecting our life empty. Realisation Starts Here The work of mastering and perfecting an occupation would lead into the psychological work. This is bec...

When we have forgotten our esoteric work and we remember it.  The moment we remember, is the best and only time to work, if we want to retain the continuity of our work. End (5724).

In practice, in the begining, it is more important to focus on changing than being perfect.  Perfection is a later stage after we have changed. So often, when we are trying to be perfect we are not dying or changing in ourselves. We are imitating or pushing ourselves towards an appearance of perfect. To change is much more important. To be perfect is very difficult and attemtping to be perfect is very stressful. We none the less, carry the compulsion to be perfect in our minds and emotions all the time. This causes us much stress and frustration. This mental compulsion of being perfect is often the cause of anger and hurt self-love. It is very relieving to understand we are not perfect and there is much to correct, and much of what needs correction will be pointed out to us by others. It is also very stress relieving to understand that we can’t always get something to be perfect. Master Samael said that the human being was far from perfect but the one who is perfect is the Inner Be...

It seems like, from so long ago, people have known about their guardian angel. Master Samael confirmed that we all have one as a part of our Being. Like all the parts of our Being, the guardian angel has a function. The function is to keep us safe and far away from danger. If we are ever in a dangerous situation, or worried for our safety, we shouldn't forget our Guardian angel. The trust we have in our Being we can extend to our Guardian Angel to feel more relaxed and secure. There is a story, where a person asked Master Samael, what would happen if he were to be attacked. His reply was that his guardian angel would disintegrate the attacker at once.  Wow! How powerful is the guardian angel! End (5720).

Personality is created by imitation.  What is original and authentic does not come from imitation, but from deeper within. Mostly from the essence, but sometimes from an ego that can tap into our creative energies. Anyhow when we say to ourselves I need to be more like this or that person, or more like a certain quality, we are going to end up creating a new layer of personality. We can study another person who has this or that good quality, and extract the wisdom, method and truth of their ways. Then blend that wisdom and method into our own way of things. That way we won't create new layers or aspects of personality. Imitation is often not a conscious process.  What we add to personality we have to later dissolve. As circumstances change... Personality is always about adding something to ourselves to make us fit in better. Each new circumstance, relationship, environment always puts pressure on us to add an extra aspect to our personality. If we learn the essence of the new ...

The cross roads the big deciding points in our life and in everyone's life always come down to be 'being'. There is always that question we ask ourselves or others ask us: "Who do I/you want to be?". There's always two possibilities: dishonourable or honourable, honest or dishonest, fair or unfair... No doubt we have chosen both in life at various times. The crisis points in the work on the ego take us to this point.  These crisis points are an opening direct to our Inner Being, where our Inner Being can answer. When we accept Its answer, which is "I want to be myself" (which is the same as a value), is when the begining of the end process of the given ego has started.   End (5718).

The use of power has great potential. It can do so much good or harm. Therefore, It can bring us much future happiness or suffering. We all have some power in some area or direction. Even if it is just to do with a broom cupboard or the laundry sink cupboard. In fact, as human beings we have power in our word which gives us some pwoer in the world (life) and power within ourselves. We also have power in our consciousness and sexual energy, which gives us power inside of ourselves, which can be projected outside of ourselves into the world. Power goes along with dignity, majesty and balance. However, power used with balance brings dignity and majesty. What is within the balanced used of power? The balanced use can also be known as the right use. The right use of power comes from the right knowing and the right doing. Right doing comes from right knowing.  We have to know what is the right way to use our power. To know the right way to use our power, we must know the wrong use. The w...

Master Samael speaks about the descent into the ninth sphere which is sex. He also says that in the ninth sphere of the abyss, the ninth Dantean circle, we find treason as the main characterisitic. How are these two qaulities, sex and treason linked in the same ninth sphere? The answer is beyond adultery, which could be the most common point where sex and betrayal meet. Everything comes from sex, the sexual energy is in everything of and about us. The conditonings we have in the different "I's" were created by the sexual energy. The sexual energy desccends from above unfolding itself through all the dimensions into the physical and further into the abyss. Any and every "I" or ego that we have is also really a betrayal to our own consciousness and the Inner Being. To get identified is a betrayal as we intimately betray the real identity of ourselves as the essence for something false, which is a made up identity of an "I". Therefore all the "I'...

If something is not going well and is a mini-disaster, it could be worht checking for the signs of energy leaks and disorders. Places where an upside down priority is at work or where there is just too much thinking or talking with no action, or large quantities of energy or resources are just not being used wisely or correctly.  End (5717).

When we are trying to be aware, often our mind starts talking narrating what is happening and thinking about be aware, instead of being quieter and actually allowing us to be aware and hold the knowing that we are being aware. The problem seems to be that the mind takes over the knowing that we are aware by commenting and narrating. There is a way to stop this. A way to stop this is to be doing something and being aware that we are doing it. The trick is to know what to do when we are aparrently doing nothing, such as in meditation. When meditating we are always doing something. We are sitting and breathing and even imagining. So sit and breathe with the mind trying to do the breathing and sitting while our awareness knows that we are breathing and sitting. Soon the mind will stop its narration and things will clear, we will have clear attention on breathing and our consciousness will be clear knowing that we are watching our breathing. End (5714).

Introduction This post attempts to present the many areas in which fornication occurs. Fornication not only occurs in relation to the physical loss of sexual energy. Notes Definition Fornication is a word in Gnostic studies that basically means: "to burn out". As in how a fire can burn out a house. It implies to consume something until there is little or nothing left. Fornicaton in general is related to expending values, energies and resources.  We are all free and have the right to use our energies and values as we please. However, we can all objectively discern what kind of use brings enhancement to us and what kind does not. It can be seen that when we use our energies and values wisely, enhancement follows and there is little or no loss. However, using our energies unwisely, in the style of fornication, we see that no kind of enhancement follows. Money, physical resources, psychological and spiritual values as well as all kinds of energies, are very applicable to fornicat...
