Gnostic Wisdom

To overcome the overthinking issue and the lamentation of not doing, we can use a key where we embrace the language of the motor centre. Before we do that we need to know the language of the motor centre. The language of the motor is action, it is doing. It is life in motion. It is starting, it is 'getting stuck into'  a task without reasoning.   "Get it done!" is the motto of the motor centre. "Let's find out!" is another. The motor centre modus operandi is not reasoning, that belongs to the intellect. So delaying and postponing is the intellect. It's not the motor centre. The motor centre is about doing. The more we just do something when we think of it or feel like no matter what the mind reasons (unless a very good physical reason) the more we are embracing the language of the motor centre.  Action without thinking. There has to be thinking but thinking aligned with doing, not thinking against doing. The motor is always doing. Not doing something...

First we start in Gnosis learning together. Then later that learning becomes verified knowledge and later still that knowledge is applied and becomes working knowledge. Equipped with working knowledge we work together to radiate light. Eventually a Gnostic school turns into a Gnostic centre that operates as a point of light for the benefit of humanity that is magnetic and also electric.  The learning turns into working and fighting to radiate light. The learning never stops and the main column is the action of working to expand the light. Really where there is much darkness only then do we come to appreciate how a group of people working on themselves is so rare and special, and how they really together forms a point of light that is powerful and so needed. The light shines brightest in the darkness... End (6103).

With the work on ourselves we create a magnetic centre and that magnetic centre brings to us all that we need to keep going and to advance and expand. If we are not getting what it is that we need to sustain and expand the magnetic field of the centre is not strong enough. To make the magnetic field stronger we just need to increase the quality of the work on ourselves. Making it deeper and more defined. End (6099).

If we wait to be perfect and polished at something - we will never start it. We will only get to be polished after having started the process. There's something in us that only wants to deliver a very polished presentation. That is a super good intention, but in practice it is just another concrete block that stops us. Pride feels that with a polished presentation people will think 'well' of us. What is more closer to the truth is that with a presentation that we think is polished, we will think 'well' of us. As with so many things we have overcome our pride and go for it, with the key being to accepting that we can only get to be polished after having practiced, and we have to start somewhere at sometime as the first step towards being polished. End (6098).

Start from the Bottom (Mineral Life) When an essence is emanated from the Absolute for the first time, it begins it's journey into creation through the mental, astral, etheric rounds (see talk on the seven rounds and seven races) into the physical, where it then begins its physical life starting from the mineral kingdom. It then transmigrates through the plant, animal and finally into the human kingdom. Indigenous Tribes Such essences entering the human kingdom for the first time are born amongst the indigenous cultures of the world. That is amongst the various tribes of the world living what we would call a primitive life. A life that is close to nature, close to the Mother (Earth) and the learning that takes place is all about mother nature and how to live with mother nature. Just as new born children we stay close to our mother and all of our learning is in the beginning is through our mother. We can see that the learning about life begins as a new essence starts with the very f...

We give up chocolate for a week then we relapse, and in the relapse we eat in one or two sittings, all that we missed out on during the previous week. It is like the swing of the pendulum and so very naturally mathematically exact. This doesn't apply just to stopping eating chocolate but mental and emotional habits as well, especially the egos that are behind these habits. For example, instead of chocolates it could be criticism or judgement, or annoyances. The way we work with the pendulum starts by knowing it and knowing that the pendulum swing effect is what will happen if we provoke it.  We provoke the pendulum by not understanding what we are doing and just mechanically stopping a habit, for example. The pendulum swing effect is avoided by approaching stopping a habit by first being armed with good reasons that are deeply significant to us. Secondly, work to stop the pendulum gradually by coming to the centre slowly and smoothly. The pendulum is defeated gradually through crea...

Consciously working on Transvaluation is difficult. Transvaluation usually happens by itself as we work on ourselves and understand in a deeper way the teachings. Transvaluation means to transfer our centre of gravity from life to the work.  Before transvaluation, life, its pursuits and concerns were valued as top priority, after transvaluation the work on ourselves and the development of our inner life and Being are valued as top priority. Even though transvaluation is difficult there are methods of consciously working on transvaluation which are not as difficult and produce very good results.  There comes a time when we know we need a deeper level of transvaluation to go forward, and so we find ourselves having to consciously face working on transvaluation. This is when methods of transvaluation become very relevant and important. Choosing the right method actually can make all the difference. We truly want a method that we can pick up and work with at our level, that produc...

There are the ways of the rays.  There is the way of wisdom like the way of force, like the way of love and the way of the artist...  All are different ways to the same end. All in essence do the same, that is produce the same result. Each way has it's way to work on ourselves and approach the challenges of life. The basic way of wisdom to approach life is wisdom, consulting first the wisdom learnt from past experiences and looking into the situation for the wisest response that serves best highest 'good' in relevance. Here wisdom touches love; "love the summon of all wisdom". When it comes to working on ourselves the way of wisdom can be seen to proceed according to two steps. The first step is to take the wisdom - a sentence of truth derived from comprehension and insight of the consciousness and fuse it into our Being. The second step is then using the force of that wisdom fused into our Being, express in action thus making it more apert of our being with eac...

With the work on the ego. We often react because we feel it's pain. We react to the uncomfortable feeling, in an attempt to ease the feeling if not make it go away all together. Only to find that after reacting we are in more pain. The conclusion is that we need some kind of training to train ourselves at first to feel and relax through the pain the ego feels, separate it and then not allow it to express. Know that it is an ego and let it go as quickly as possible and once it is gone we are all good for a while, unless it comes back. If we drum this understanding into ourselves we can help ourselves to increase our ability to separate from it and advance more decisively towards its dissolution. End (6100).

We are truly not our way of thinking and feeling. We really feel that we are and we intensely defend our way of thinking and feeling. We can often catch ourselves saying statements such as: "that's just me, that's the way I think!", "I can't think and feel differently about that issue. That's just the way I think, it is me!". The truth is though that our way of thinking and feeling changes over time. It is actually pliable, flexible and malleable. Our consciousness or intelligence can mold it.  So then who are we if at one point we can think one way and later in time think the opposite? Even though it may seem true that my way of thinking is all me, others actually can and do think like that also. How unique is it really? We have to identify ourselves as the consciousness and intelligence, which is the one that can mold our way of thinking and feeling. When we identify with our way of thinking we feel hurt all the time. It never stops.  It may reall...

This is the question, what effect do others have on us through the impressions they emit towards us? Do they contribute to making ourselves feel comfortable with ourselves or think that there is something wrong with ourselves? Love is a powerful force and polarised as hatred it is an equally powerful force. The impressions of love from another causes us subconsciously and even consciously to feel good  and comfortable within ourselves. We can of course also send waves of love towards ourselves to our Inner Being consciously and voluntarily, to counter any negative impressions towards us. The impressions of disrespect, disdain,. reprimand, superiority, constant criticism, harsh words and cold  treatment even abuse cause us automatically and subconsciously to despise ourselves.  The strangest thing is that we don't notice that we are doing this to ourselves, we only see the anger, hurt  and protest as a strong reaction. When this despise of ourselves builds up it is un...

What is about the last drop or the last morsel that is so important and we would fight and suffer many times more than the suffering of not having it.  Is it just a sign of our sleeping consciousness. That we in general prefer a minute's bliss instead of preventing a week's suffering or how Jesus remarked that we complain about the speck of wood in another person's eye but ignore the 6 foot plank in our own eye. Even in the infra-dimensions there are those that would fight and even kill for the last drop of brandy from a bottle.  Is it because the last drop signifies the very end before the long drought and the desperation of having something before the drought is what has all the power and so we fight just to get that feeling of having the slightest fulfillment before a long tough drought ensues. Anyway whatever the reason it is a good avenue of observation, self-study and a point for comprehension, as this phenomenon appears many times in our own psychology in different a...

Everything we are doing is about exchanging values. Nothing is for free everything, works on an exchange. In any exchange, we are awarded according to the high quality of the values exchanged. Each and every exchange is ruled over by justice. So the higher the value or the greater the quality of value that we exchange or trade the greater the return. We think that we should make money trading poor values, meaning the unspoken goal is to get the most from giving the least. Then no wonder why things are not working out or paying off in our life. If we always give high quality values form ourselves, that is putting high quality time, energy and attention we will receive the most in return. We will receive a gain on our invest of the high quality values we put in.  In other words we will gain the most internally from it. More satisfying and more fulfilling, and more inner growth. We also think that things in spirituality should be for free but that is not how things work at all. Just l...

We may have never let anyone see us, even though the interact face to face with us all day long. I mean your hear t of hearts, your essence, your Being, with all its heart felt deepest yearnings, without our chest pulled open for our heart to be seen. Have we every spoken to someone that way or treated them from that place? Maybe we have only ever seen a person like that once (one that special day), and never again... Perhaps this what people call vulnerability art its deepest point. We could say now you see my essence, my Being, and for the rest you won't see me apart from my mask (personality) and my changing moods and contradictions (egos). How lucky we were able to 'see' a person in their life with us. You 'see' me now and you won't 'see' me for a long while... To best moment to 'see' another is before they go, or part from our life, as that memory is what will carry forward through time until meeting again, and seeing their soul again. End (...

The flow of life is a powerful river, that will always find its way around an obstacle. Our life is the same. The flow of life in our life can not but continue to flow. It flows and takes us with it around and over obstacles, on and on. When something is in the flow of life, of our life, it will find its way to express, manifest and unfold. That is it's living principle. When we suffer a tragedy, the flow of our life will always find a way around it.  That is the one and only question of the flow of life: "how it will find a way?" Life in its essence is all about finding a way! All about finding a way! The flow of life is the one power that finds a way. "How does someone deal with that happening in their life?", is a question often asked. The answer is their flow of life within them will find a way to, just as a river flows over the rocks blocking its way. So let's relax. Let's trust in the forces and intelligences behind the flow of life. We often don...
