Pride and Lust – Double PPP - (304)

Introduction

We know that the PPP, that is the Principal Psychological Profile is a causal factor, meaning that it is something that by itself forms a cause for many tragedies, dramas, circumstances and comedies. We know that it is the cause of our fall and the reason or the cause of many of our life’s circumstances and our of thoughts, emotions and inner states.


Sometimes it is as if Lust and Pride are Together in the PPP

As causal factors lust and pride are together, in fact they form a very dynamic duo that is very powerful in lowering our level of being. In fact working together they are responsible for our fall, usually Pride is the expression of the first desire to be something more, something different, it is the first expression of inconformity with the unity, the whole and the Being. Pride produces a distance or a separate from the whole, the unity and the being but the connection is still there, it maybe be weak but it is still there, though lust is the one that produces the disconnection, i.e. definitely cuts the connection and so we fall.

Without lust we would not be able to fall and without pride we would not have used lust to fall either. So they work hand in hand. However over time in through our various lives one of these egos Pride or Lust comes to be stronger than the other.


If One’s PPP is Pride, Pride will be found in Lust but not the Other Way Around

If your PPP is Pride, you find wit at the root or base of your lust and your Pride will use your lust, it will trigger your lust. Sometimes Pride uses lust for control, for dominance, for revenge for superiority for many other reasons. Lust can use pride such as vanity etc. to shape the body to be more attractive etc. but the cases where pride uses lust will far out number the cases where lust uses pride if one’s PPP is actually in fact Pride.


Work Lust to Find Pride

Sometimes, we in our psychological work have to overcome lust then the gymnasium with pride comes to us. Working on lust opens the way to find and work on pride. Lust is like a distraction that delays this work on our core egoical structure which is the PPP.


Working on Lust Re-establishes the Connection (Order and Peace)

Working on Lust may bring much order and peace to one because the core of one’s energies are flowing correctly and that there is less distraction and one can maintain their level of being and level of alertness and focus on their work. However, it does change our sexual nature which then changes us because if we change our core sexual energy we change our selves fundamentally. It puts us on the right track. It strengthens and helps to re-establish that broken connection with the Being. Because ultimately transmuting and awakening Kundalini is when we re-establish that connection to the Being and that is only achieved by working on lust, not succumbing to it.


Working on Pride Closes the Distance (Restores our True Nature)

When we work on pride we actually begin to change our inner nature, making it much more filled with good will, much more benevolent, balanced, unifying and closer to the nature of our essence and Being. Working on pride brings heaps of difficulties to our life, problems, fights, insults, offences, unfairness you name it. The result is balance and equanimity in the face of such things. It brings a shift in our centre of gravity from the false personality to the essence and our Being. It draws us closer to our Being. So it then restores our true nature which is ultimately that of the Being.


Conclusion

Lust and Pride are a duo that work together usually and really should both be worked upon. Both are causal factors and working on one or controlling one allows access to the other. Working on lust re-establishes the connection and working on Pride closes the distance between us and the Being. So the order is to work on lust to create the connection to the Being and work on pride to close the distance to our 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).
