Gnostic View of Human Evolution - (311)

Introduction

When we commonly talk about evolution we think about the well-known Darwinian theory of evolution. Which Gnosis acknowledges, however not to the full extent that it has been taken lately. Gnosis also acknowledges that of human evolution, however in a sense that it is best explained. This post attempts to explain this.


Full Evolution Extent

Evolution in the sense that in the future we will all evolve to use 100% of our brain capacity and be fully awake, have developed all out latent faculties and potential, have eliminated all sicknesses, have overcome poverty, eliminated war, have knowledge of all the corners of the universe and the human body, etc. is really in Gnostic terms a fiction.

Gnosis does not agree that in the future we will evolve to become angels or Gods. The reason why is because it would not be fair to give something to a human being that he or she does not want or has not worked in order to achieve.

Gnosis however does agree with the various physiological adaptations that have occurred over time in various animal species and in humans to help them better adapt to their environment.


Extrapolating Observed Adaptations to Explain Future and Past

Future

Darwin’s theory of evolution was basically based on his observations of the various adaptations that had occurred in animals. Considering adaptations there are many well know and documented facts that we all can not deny, however to extend these observations into a theory that sees the human being as developing into a God like being in the future is something Gnosis does not agree with.


The diagram below shows the adaptations that have occurred in the Giraffe species over time.


Past

Also on the other hand extending the observation of adaptations to a theory to explain that we have come from a very simple one cell organism etc. something Gnosis does not agree with either. However the idea that is common in evolution studies is that the current human being has its origin in apes, which Gnosis surprisingly does agree with, however this must be explained.


Human Evolution

Basically Gnosis explains that the real authentic human being the one who was united with his/her own spiritual parts had their origin in the absolute and descended gradually to the Earth as creation unfolded and began to condense.


However the human being nowadays Gnosis says has its origin in the mixture of real authentic physical human being who unfortunately fell into degeneration and mixed with the beasts of nature.

This mixture produced numerous half human creatures, of which the apes of all sorts have their origin. Even nowadays the human being is classed as a species of ape. In fact conventional science says that the human being’s DNA is 98% similar to that of a chimpanzee.

So this mixture in the beginning produced so many different humanoids that over time evolved through various processes and other mixtures etc. to be the human being that we have now. Please note it was not as simple as the process that is commonly thought of and which is expressed in the diagram below. That is why Gnosis calls the current human being an intellectual animal.


Conclusion

What Gnosis does acknowledge are the various physiological adaptations that have occurred in various animals and in human beings over the centuries to better adapt to the changing conditions of their environments.

Gnosis does not agree with extrapolation of this to explain the future and past of eh human being.

Gnosis does acknowledge much of what has been said in regard to human evolution, essentially because Gnosis sees the human being today as having come from the mixture of real human beings with animals. This mixture or blending produced numerous hominids or humanoids that have evolved over time to become today’s human being

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).
