Forms that the Egos of Lust Take in Dreams or Internal Experiences

Introduction

In our dreams or internal visions, that usually occur while being a little drowsy during meditation, we can see our egos. Each ego is seen as having a distinct form. The form that an ego takes can certainly vary. It can take the appearance of something decent to something very grotesque. And furthermore the form that they take varies between individuals.

However, the good news is that there are certain forms that are common among individuals and these forms are archetypical. For example, the most common form that egos appear with seems to be the animal form, and this makes sense as the ego is something inhuman and animal in nature.

There are also archetypes for each type of ego, for example the egos of lust can take the appearance of animals such as pigs and snakes, maybe even dogs or monkeys.


The Egos Have a Look of Hatred

If in the dream or experience you are able to see the way the ego looks at you, you will see that the ego looks at you with disdain and even hatred, sometimes with in trepidation (depending how strong our resolve to eliminate it is).

With such looks we can discern something about the particular and general nature of the ego that even though it is our essence but conditioned essence, it is polarised in such a way that it does not like us or is against us.


The Egos Don’t Like Us

This is the strangest thing to learn that the ego does not like us. After all it is us just that it has been conditioned. The conditioning that it has does not like us for the reason that we do not feed it, or we do not allow it full reign of our human machine or that it knows us, the essence, will one day eliminate it and it fears its end, why, because it has been conditioned not to die.

Another reason why the ego does not like us is because it is selfish, it does not take us into account, it can only take into account its own conditioning.


Working Out What Ego It Is

We may see many animal and other forms and we may even strongly suspect that they are egos but the problem could be that we are not sure which egos these forms represent.

The best way to find out is to remember our feeling or intuition during the experience or dream. Usually our intuition tells us which ego we are looking at. If we can’t remember we then have to work it out by analogy.
We have to find the characteristics that the animal we saw in the experience has in life here on Earth, and then relate these characteristics to those of a particular defect or ego.


What You Can Learn

We can learn much about the particular nature of an ego, such as its: motivations, strength, function and logic when we see it in our dreams or in internal experiences.

By observing its look, the way it acts, what it says and it appearance we can gleam a lot of valuable information. The appearance is very important as it is usually symbolic and revealing. But most of all what is the most instructive is what it does, as what it does it the pure unadulterated action of that ego.


Appearance of the Egos of Lust – Pigs or Snakes

The egos of lust usually take the appearance of pigs or snakes. The more astute seductive egos of lust take the appearance of snakes and the rough and crude pleasure seeking egos of lust take on the appearance of pigs. As just like a pig rolls in the mud they revel in sensations becoming more and more full of unclean, unwholesome or unhealthy desires.


Conclusion

After seeing an ego in a dream or in an internal vision during meditation it is worth analysing the experience to extract as much information as you can from it as this information is valuable to your efforts or work of comprehending that defect.


End.

What is the Kundabuffer or Kundartiguador? - (405)

Introduction Gurdjieff and Master Samael spoke much about the Kundabuffer organ and a lot of what Master Samael said is pretty clear. This post is just about going over some of what he said. In the Quinto Evangelio, Master Samael also revealed many more details which do not appear in his books. Note, the Qunito Evangelio is a two tome compilation of transcriptions of many recordings of informal talks that Master Samael had with his students. English and Spanish Terms There are these two terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer which refer to the same thing. Kundartiguador is Spanish and Kundabuffer is English. I believe it was Gurdjieff who first introduced these terms in his book “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson”. I believe “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson” was not originally written in ether Spanish or English. So these terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer are translations where the word “Kunda” could not be translated and the ending "buffer" could b...

When We Speak Bad About Ourselves - Because of Self-Compassion - (2963)

Even Just Thinking Negative When we just even think, let alone speak about ourselves in a negative way, thinking things like: how we are really this and that bad and that is not at all what others see, that we are in capable, worth little, know nothing, can't do this and that, fail at this and that, a liar, a dreamer the list goes on... We can be 100% sure that self-compassion is behind this because pride by itself would never allow this.  In a case like this self-compassion taps into what pride hides from itself and others and exposes it. Feeling that it is doing job at ruining ourselves. Why It Does What It Does? Self-compassion does this sort of thing to avoid reprimand and to extract compassion from others. Self-compassion is about getting compassion for ourselves through others. It is set-up in relativity, using others as a reference point. Really the best thing that you can do for a person who is pitted against this ego is to ignore them, so that they can fa...

The Divine Mother is there when we Comprehend - (5780)

A very wonderful instructor gave a talk on Koradi Radio a few days ago and he said something that really impacted. He said that when we comprehend something, our Divine Mother is present right in that moment of comprehension. Especially if it is do with an "I" we are working on. He went on to say that he knows that She is there when we comprehend something. This for me was marvellous, because I have felt the same, though I was never fully sure. This is great news when we want to build a connection to our Divine Mother and doubt when is present. We can know that She is present when we are trying to comprehend. I feel that She really wants us to comprehend the "I" and further more She helps us to comprehend. We can truly ask for Her help to comprehend something and the help will come in such a natural way that we will tend to overlook it.   She is better than Google...  End (5780).
