What is my Identity? Answer ‘No Identity’- (280)

Introduction


This is something I have been feeling for a while now, that I didn't really know who I was or I couldn't find an identity within myself. I have been thinking and searching a lot and last week talking to my teacher my conclusion is that our identity is really "no-identity".


No-Identity as our Identity

That of the "no-identity" should be understood as the lived experience of the consciousness, of our own awareness peering into itself experiencing, understanding, perceiving the great mystery of ourselves as "no-identity". So our identity is us carrying around the experience of our awareness or consciousness peering into that vastness of consciousness inside of us and perceiving a mystery there but knowing still that you 'are', that you are a reality in life, that you are a ray or spark or stream of life.


Further Confirmation and application

I asked someone with a great deal of consciousness and experience in these studies about whether the consciousness has an identity and he said “no”. Because an identity is a concept, a role, a function, a belief and the consciousness does not have any of those things.

This to me makes sense because say when someone is criticizing us and if we go to that "no-identity" state then it is heaps easier to handle because if we have our identity as Paul, the nice guy, tried to do the best job but unbeknownst got it wrong and shouldn't get talked to so hard etc. etc., it is really much more difficult to not get defensive and react etc. For me the "no-identity" part makes the dissolution of the ego more possible, especially for Pride, because the essence can't get humiliated, it is very hard to humiliate or put down awareness or consciousness, but an identity can be put down, ridiculed etc.


Real Identity in the Being

I have been also thinking about the Being as being our real identity, I asked my teacher about that one too and he said that the identity of the Being is really like a nature and a function at this level in creation for us to understand it, but outside of creation He is no form, no identity, consciousness, just pure energy of the highest degree, absolute immortality, origin unknown - maybe of no origin etc. That of knowing the ray of the Being is great but it left me a little like wanting more, like in the end the ray of the Being in our mind is just a string of words, there are heaps of Monads belonging to the same ray and then still one doesn't really know His identity - I imagine it has to be experienced somehow. Anyway I'm still got more to work out about that one maybe with an experience one day it will gel together.


Conclusion

As the essence we can quite practicably realise or discover that our identity is ‘no-identity’ and dwell in that freedom. As for the identity of the Being that has to be experienced in higher, much higher states of consciousness where our consciousness fuses with His, i.e. in the fourth state of consciousness the awakened consciousness.

End (280).

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...

Want to Know Your Cosmic Ray or the Ray of Your Being? – (1088)

What is a Ray? A ray is a certain line of unfolding from the Absolute. The primordial and most fundamental ray is the Okidanokh ray that provided and continues to provide the means for creation to unfold outwards from within the absolute. When a Monad (your Being for example) or as Master Samael sometimes refers to it - a divine virginal spark, leaves the Absolute to enter into creation, it does so in accordance to a certain ray. This ray is part of the order of creation and this order has been established originally by the Absolute itself. The ray upon which a Monad or our Being has emanated from the Absolute pertains to a certain place and function in creation. This function in turn determines some of the characteristics, wisdom, learnings and nature that a Monad (our Being) expresses in creation. For example, take master Samael Aun Weor, his Monad Samael belongs to the ray of Force, and for sure such a Being would possess certain characteristics and a nature that per...
