Knowing Your Impulses (187)

Introduction

There are many impulses in us, one of them is the impulse for the new, to know, to experience what is new. This impulse just like so many within us if channeled or directed correctly can be marvelous. However, if channeled incorrectly it can be devastating.

Impulse to Experience the New

That impulse to experience the new can lead us to study to meditate to explore ourselves and experience the joy of a new discovery about nature, life, esotericism and ourselves. The problem is that we have to be aware of that impulse. Know that it is something that comes from beyond the mind.

Not Aware of Impulse

When we are not aware of that impulse we have a problem, we think that we are that thing (i.e. that impulse). We should see within us that that impulse is fine, the only problem is that it can be taken by the egos within us - principally, by lust and materialism.

That divine impulse when it is taken by the ego, is taken into matter. So we buy new things, we search for the sensation of new material objects, the new sensation of having something new and discovering what it can do and then with lust it is all about new sensations and new fractionings of one’s sexuality.

Conclusion

This is just one example of the many impulses that we have. The general work is to be able to discover the impulse and it’s origin and then clean it. This applies very importantly and directly to the sexual impulse that we have.

In this we have awakening first then death. The awakening is to discover and realize this impulse as something that comes from beyond the mind and to see it as natural as something divine and then death comes into play, when we start to remove the egos that latch onto it and are responsible for dirtying it and putting it into relativity and duality and also into matter.

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).
