The Senses and Lust (168)

Introduction

There are certain body parts that lust likes. This is undeniable. We don’t like to admit it, but it exists within us, or at least there is a certain preference of one part of the body to another.

For men the breasts and the buttocks are great fascination. Why? We can analyse this and see that both of these parts are round and symmetrical. In other words they both immediately please the visual sense. What is round, smooth, shiny and proportional pleases or attracts the visual sense.


Senses Convey Information

Each sense also gives us certain bits of information, and in turn these bits of information are interpreted by the mind or to be exact it is the ego in the mind that interprets them.


Desire and Memory

Desire is based on the memory of pleasure and the yearning of the senses for pleasure. Because the senses are pleased and they make the mind know that they are pleased. The senses are connected to our mind through the layer of the sensual mind, which is the outermost layer.


What Pleases the Tactile and Visual Sense

So smoothness pleases the touch sense. The data from the visual sense indicates to the mind that the tactile sense will be pleased. Also the visual sense indicates to the mind the taste sense will be pleased or not pleased. The most important sense here is really the visual sense, and to lust it is absolutely crucial. Because through the visual sense lust knows that the other senses will be pleased, and most importantly it determines the sexual sense or organs will be pleased.


The Issue – Senses and the Mind

The problem is that the way the touch sense entices the mind is by using imagination, it has to create a scenario for us to in our imagination go and experience the object of desire and that way using our imagination appeal to our sexual sensations.


Main Senses for Lust

The main senses for lust are the eyes, touch and hearing. Hearing conveys essentially the information that enjoyment is being produced. So it produces in us psychological sensations that drive us forward.
The visual sense and the tactile sense work very much with the instinctive centre.


Interpretation of the Senses

Symmetry and proportion also appeal to our visual sense. The more perfectly symmetrical the more our visual sense is pleased and the interpretation is that we will be comforted or abundantly. Usually with abundance we feel comfortable or secure, with little we do not feel comfortable or secure on the contrary we feel worried and anxious. So large buttocks and breasts, inspire such sensations in a person, that in turn create emotions. The emotion that the pleasure or satisfaction of the senses implies is what pleases us or gets us hooked. When we feel abundance and security we are attracted and hooked, when we feel the opposite we are repelled.


Conclusion

Know what pleases your senses and understand how it relates to lust and then observe and study how your mind interprets that information from the senses. Know that that the senses are not evil or dirty they are just as they are. They perceive according to their nature. The part that needs correction is what is done by our mind with the information that they the senses provide.

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).
