Metals in Life and Esotericism

Metals in Life and Esotericism - (282)

Introduction

It seems to me that because metals are so important in our everyday life and body they must be significant in the esoteric or spiritual realm as well.

A Plan

The next series of posts are about investigating a little this small inquietude of mine. For this I am going to choose to start with the metal iron, mainly because it is features so frequently in our day to day life and it is quite important to our body’s health.

I also hope to investigate and post information about the other very important metals in our life, such as copper, gold, silver, lead, aluminium, tin and zinc. The elements of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen are also very important to our life as well, and we know from Master Samael’s teachings that carbon, oxygen, nitrogen and hydrogen are important esoterically because they represent the superior existential bodies of the Being.

A Very Good Book

A very good book on this subject of metals is “The Secrets of Metals” written by Wilhelm Pelikan. Pelikan was a student of Rudolf Steiner and it is said that he devoted most of his life to the study of Anthroposophy.

Conclusion

Basically this can all be synthesised in the great maxim from Hermes Trismegistus “as above so below”. As metals are important here they are important above. Because metals are important in the Earth and as we are a universe in miniature, we have the metals within us in a degree corresponding to our size and they are just as important to us as they are to the Earth and the cosmos.

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...

Gnostic View on Vampires and Dracula - (426)

Introduction I came across this passage from Master Samael when reading up about the Earth’s two Moons. I was quite astonished, mainly because I always thought that vampires did not exist or only existed in the Astral as a type of negative entity. However, Master Samael says in the following excerpt that a vampire is a condition that can be unfortunately developed by a human being. He says further that it is a very abnormal and abominable condition, which certainly it is. From Master Samael “Among the most abominable products of Lilith, it is opportune to cite the case of Count Dracula in Russia. This movie personage truly existed, and H. P. Blavatsky comments about him in one of her books. This great female Master stated that such a Count (in times of the Czars) was the Mayor of a certain Russian town. He mortally hated his wife, because vampires are homosexuals; they mortally hate the opposite sex. After...
