Gnostic Wisdom

Is different is one word.  The truth is it happens everywhere and it is nothing more than an expression of a person's different facers and the effects of the atmosphere and environment. That is something that we should understand and know that the glowing person on stage is different in real life. End (6019).

Purpose Notes in point form for the preparation of this talk topic. "Transmutation is a biological insurrection and a psychological revolution."  Alchemy is not a method to avoid having children, it is a practice for the realisation of the Being within us. It is practiced to fuse ourselves evermore deeper with our interior Divinity. Alchemy is a vehicle of realisation, as it awakens the fire and builds the solar bodies. It also has the power to dissolve all our egos. Notes Introduction • This talk is about the Practice of the Alchemy. It's aim is to provide practical guidance for the practice of Alchemy. • The practice of Alchemy is a true practice of deep transformation. It is practiced for the Being within and for the Being within our partner. • The reference point of the practice is not ourselves or our bodies' desires but the realisation of the Being.  • It is a sacred act of inner creation. • Quality is the guide for each practice. we must seek improved quality a...

The way to giving is to cultivate the happiness of giving. To feel happy to give to others in whatever form that may take is the way to develop giving. Using happiness and forgetting astuteness is the road to developing the power of giving. Astuteness comes into play trying to not give or give less or give later. Astuteness is also that which expects something in return. No gift is empty as that gift will boomerang back to you when you most need it. To be giving means you can be or are already an instrument of the Divine Law and the White Lodge of their benevolence. To give for giving sake also helps us to forget about the pain of giving which is all about not getting anything back in return. Regarding astuteness everyone turns out to be astute to some degree and the one being astute thinks that the others don't know he is being astute. The goal of astuteness to not give but make the other person to give.  Giving is affected when we forgive the   To give means to ignore a...

When it comes to patience it is not really about the time. It is more about being able in ourselves to hold high a high quality of hope. It is the quality of hope that we have that sees us through the time we need to wait. If the quality of hope and faith be high, time goes quickly. End (6018).

What is most important is that we do this - hold the values of the work which are directly shared by our Inner Being up high within us. If we fail, hold them up, and if we triumph hold them up, no matter what. Giving the values and pushing them up high is always the best thing to do. It is the most rewarding and the thing that gives the least regrets. It is an effort that will stay with us and improve us. This effort takes up life in our work memory and radiates faith in the work and the Inner Being within us. This is exactly what the transmutation is all about. It is to raise the values - that is the transmuted sexual energy up high within us. That is towards our inner heavens which from the body's point of view is our brain and heart. For the values to rise, heat, sensation, interaction are needed and we must make the effort for the values/energy to rise.  The values are not made to rise unless there is some heat, interaction of opposites, sensation pleasant or unpleasant. That i...

Intro Here are some notes about giving. They are discoveries and may they be of some help. Notes To develop giving, the right conditions for it, really help. The basic element that must be present in those conditions is that there are or there is someone that is less fortunate in whatever sense. In short, go where there is little. Where there is poverty of some kind... There is poverty of many kinds...Not only physical, there is internal poverty and there is poverty of time and poverty of values and poverty of knowledge and skills. To develop giving we must have something to give others. What we have within to give shows us where to go and what to give. In wanting to give we develop ourselves. Because once 'we have something' we can give. The easiest kind of giving has to do with money... We can always make more money but we can not make more time or health in some cases. It is also not easy to make values. This takes hard work and time. We can't judge before giving, if we ...

Know Knowing the below ten cases helps us to better steer our life. The Twelve Cases One There are things that we are doing that are correct. This is becasue there is an internal reality and depth to them, which comes from deep within. There we feel relaxed and fulfilled. Two There are things that we are doing that are incorrect. This is because our actions are against our inner values, or they are not right for us to be doing at this stage. There we feel anxious, misaligned, fearful and restless. Three There are things that we are doing that we know are not right for us, yet we persist in doing them. There is a clash of wills at play. The will of an obstinate "I" and the will of the essence in us. There we feel conflicted, uneasy and somewhat fearful. Four There are things that we are doing that are neutral but they do not have any inner depth or reality to them. There is little relevance to our inner world. There we feel interested but the interest quickly disappears. Five ...

When we have been asking the Divine Law for help or when we have merit or when we have been treated unfairly and undeservedly, the Divine Law looks for people who have the right values to help us and compensate us. Those with the right values in their heart are moved to help us without us even asking. We just need to wait for the Law to arrange circumstances and move the people with the values to help. End (6011).

Just as when we know we are doing something that is incorrect or unbalanced, for example something unethical, there is something deep within that tells us we can't be doing this forever and one day we will get caught or have to face retribution.  Having a lot while others have very little produces the same feeling of fear from something that is untenable. It can't be for long that a small number of others have so much while the majority have so little. The constant experience of that fear because something is untenable always results in us giving, because it becomes more and more clear to us that the situation is out of balance and everything must always seek balance, and if we don't seek balance, balance will fall upon us the hard way. This may not happen in the world or in a society at large, becasue there is too much karma in the world, but within a family or on an individual level it certainly can. End (6010).

Typically we think masochism is for 'strange' and very unbalanced people. We also think that we are not all that strange... However, looking closely and subtly we find that there are levels and degrees of masochism lurking within us.  These degrees of masochism exist in fact in the average person's psyche. These elements were created after the fall or played an active part in our fall. Let's have a look. To be enduring suffering when we have the tools to dissolve it is a degree of masochism. To be standing there receiving an ear bashing for free beyond the point is masochism. To be involved in making useless sacrifices is masochism. To put ourselves through intense efforts for others who don't care or won't take advantage or reciprocate for their inner progress is masochism. Furthermore we take attitudes of repentance of which we don't have sufficient comprehension that become and act of masochism. Masochism is something in the end mechanical powered by fals...

When an issue goes on for too long without a solution, and when the effects of the issue being unresolved  increases in negativity - the sense of injustice builds. Human beings can't stand injustice for long. The build up of injustice unavoidably always turns to some kind of violence. There were some great individuals in history that taught humanity how to sensibly and peacefully give expression to the build-up of injustice. Which has been taken on by many these days with protest marches etc. that are loud but very often not physically violent. Most of the violence occurs in clashes with police trying to stop the march. That strong and automatic tendency to turn to violence is something to always know that it exists as a pathway within human beings, and it is something to watch out for. Whenever we see violence there is always some kind of injustice issue behind it. Or if apparently not, injustice is being made straight away with violence and that will be the cause for future viole...

It is just these three qualities that save us from the storm that hits us unexpectedly. If we are always on the look out for danger, and don't delay working on it as soon as we catch a glimpse of it, or even before it appears, we can diffuse the pending storm. When we are negligent and careless these strong psychological storms get unleashed wreaking havoc in our psyche and work. To diffuse them, resort to the volitional and conscious work as the power. Conscious and volitional or deliberate action, has great currency and merit. Much more than passively waiting... Being always on the look out, working straight away diverts the storm. The storm comes to show us that we are out of touch with the reality of ourselves and we have become complacent and negligent. The message of every storm is: "back to work". End (6008).

Say we have an empty room in our house and we are not sure what to do with it or how to improve it. What do we do?  A good way to go about it is to sit in that space and observe it with a clear and calm mind.  While sitting like that we begin to notice all kinds of things about the room that wee didn't see before and ideas to improve, organise and give function to the room appear, all out of nowhere. In actual fact, those ideas appear out of the nowhere which is clear and calm attention. In other words, consciousness. The same thing applies for our interior spaces. If we can just sit and observe inwardly with a clear and calm mind for long enough, creative ideas leading to comprehension will arise with that interior space that is unoccupied or occupied by an unnecessary element.  End (6005).

Often the urges or impulses that we experience are disguised as commands or taken as commands. They are after all just thoughts with a bit of emphasis.  If we let them go they will pass. The very interesting thing is that the urges come for a reason and this is something worth looking into. They often come to cover up some uncomfortable feeling. That is their cause and the issue is not to do what they say, it is to avoid that uncomfortable feeling. An urge is not a command it is notifying us that there is something that we are trying to avoid or that we feel uncomfortable. We are quite surprised how often we feel uncomfortable. The remedy here is then to hold out serenely though the urge to see what it is that it is coming to make us avoid. For example, the urge to constantly snack is covering something up... Maybe it is boredom and maybe that boredom comes from some kind of an unhappiness. Anyhow it is due to something... One should keep an urge or distraction log. It is so intere...

The reason is that we have the same nature within us that would treat others harshly, just as we are being treated now or were treated. The harsh treatment is actually a lesson to help us to not be like that now and in the future. The thing is we don't know that we have the same nature within us. Speaking Gnostically, we have the same egos within us, and we are not aware of that. Consequently we believe the treatment to be unfair and that it should not be. It turns out that from the outside it looks unfair, but it is only so, because we don't know our past. For example, we may have been so upset with our mother, because she treated us so harshly and mothers are not meant to be like that. Only later we come to know that we are like that inside if ourselves, and that is why we were treated that way. Having been treated that way we try to be different in our life towards others. Later when those egos come out that are just the same as our mother's, we then better understand ho...
