Weapons to Displace, Weaken and Dissolve Lust - (392)

Image
Important What is really important is that as soon as we discover something new about lust we put it to work inside of ourselves. As soon as we apply the new discovery the sooner it becomes a weapon in our hands to displace, weaken and dissolve lust. This applies to any defect really. Sometimes we can have so many keys but because we don’t apply them they remain as just words, and of course we remain as stuck as ever in the mud of the ego. Take Your Weapons With You Something that I have found very useful is to take your weapons with you everywhere. Take them shopping, driving, walking, working, meditating, singing, showering, sleeping, talking, thinking, you name it, everywhere and anywhere that you go externally and internally. Weapons Runaway Sexual Centre – Out of Order and Balance My main weapon against lust is now knowing that all the thoughts of lust lead to a runaway sexual centre and that le...

An Esoteric meaning of Easter - (391)

Image
A Note The following text does not come from me but from notes taken from a talk given by someone very advanced in the Spiritual path and who is about to live, soon, his own intimate Holy Week. Easter in the Intimate Universe of the Being In the intimate world of the universe of the Being, Easter is extraordinarily significant. It is where the parts of the Being in the person who are expecting the culmination of the second mountain, that is the point in the path where the intimate Christ is about to die. This process is where the Being is about to recognize all his errors, debts, wrong doings before the Absolute. A Difficult Period When the intimate Christ dies it is a period of darkness where much has to be paid and corrected. The other parts of the Being have to work very hard to correct and pay for all these debts and get ready for the resurrection at the end of the years of Job. Conclusion That is an i...

Our Precious Intimate Christ - (390)

Image
He is Special The Intimate Christ for the people who are doing the work is something special. Him the Intimate Christ and the Divine Mother are the closest parts of the Being to us. Our Divine Mother comes to check us when we are very ill physically and when we are psychologically unwell. She heals us and helps us to recover physically and psychologically as well. He Redeems from Within Our Intimate Christ is the one who redeems and saves us from inside. When we are almost at the edge of the abyss due to one or another ego, we can appeal to Him to save us to help transform our possible fall, averting danger. He is the one that transforms that redeems us from being terribly stuck in the “I” to being free. When Hope is Almost Gone – He is the One When we feel that hope is almost gone, He is the one to help us. He can come to us and from inside extract all the wisdom and love from our experiences with the “I” and work in us, helping to extract the lessons that allow us ...

Sexual Energy Sublimation - (389)

Image
Introduction Sublimating the sexual energy is to take your sexual energy to the Being. It is to transmute first your sexual energy and through prayer and remembering of the Being offer and fuse that transmuted energy into your Being/Inner Divinity. Prayer and Remembering of the Being are Essential in Sublimation Prayer and remembering of the Being are essential in any act of sublimation. We concentrate on and yearn for the Being daily during our prayers and various activities where we ask for help and so it is then natural that during the sexual activity or rather in the practice of Alchemy or sexual transmutation we concentrate on our inner Being and offer our best product – our transmuted sexual energy. It the most powerful and the most intimate energy that we have as it comes from all that we eat, breathe and think, feel and do. Sublimation is a Complete Act Sublimation uses all of our centres or brains. Praye...

Role or Function of Laziness - (388)

Image
Introduction – A Curious Observation After some observation it seems that the effect of laziness is to always stop the flow of progress or the continuity of work progressive or not, on a project. Whenever we are working on something that requires the input of continuous effort over several days, weeks, months or even years, laziness is ever present. Role or Function The role or function of laziness is as we know, is all about resting, and that is true in any project or continuous work the law or rest and repose is present, so is the law of work or activity. The overall balance in any work is the choice of progress and completion. So the function of the law of rest and repose must not be the dominant one but must be there to complement the law of work. That is rest to replenish forces and ideas so to continue and work more efficiently. Laziness is really that principle of rest and repose but exaggerated or taken out of the instincts or natural order and put into the mind ...

Symptoms of Disconnection from the Being or the Work - (387)

Image
Introduction We can get disconnected from the work and the Being due to many causes and egos, not only due to lust or pride. The things that we feel when we are in a low state of disconnection are the following: 1.) Feeling empty inside and feeling others and life are also empty and devoid of meaning. 2.) A loss of faith, one believes less in the work and in the possibilities of the work. One becomes more sceptical and cynical than before. 3.) One is polarized with the ego and believes more in the ego and the personality. 4.) One feels weak in all the senses, physically, vitally or energetically and spiritually. One feels like an empty shell. 5.) One feels confused, not sure what to do, to work on oneself and die in the ego or do nothing. One feels confused about the ego, it is difficult to understand the ego and to know what is clearly wrong and what is clearly right. The ego seems more right. 6.)...

Awful Pride - (386)

Image
Introduction Pride is the ego in us that finds itself incapable of bowing down to another. It would rather just get angry or use anger to storm off. Especially when we for example have done something wrong or harmful to another with the ego of pride in our human machine (i.e. in our mind and emotions) somehow think that they should be grateful to us or forging. This is something very unrealistic, especially considering that we never act this way when others do us harm. Pride wants Others to Lower Themselves With pride we would always like others to end the tension, to break the ice, to succumb, to bow down to us, to apologize or forgive us. With pride we just want hold our high position and never stoop down, even when we are wrong. To be made to ‘come off our high horse' by force makes us very angry. Pride Impossible to Lower Itself Pride finds it impossible to lower itself when it thinks it or rather when it considers it has been treated unfairly or wrongly. It ...

The Ego and Cosmic Order - (385)

Image
Introduction In creation there is order and balance, and keeping that order in place are laws and principles. These laws and principles present the order of things and hold everything together in balance and stability. Essence and Being in Order, Ego in Rebellious Disorder The essence and the Being are in accordance with those laws and principles. The ego in us on the other hand are not in accordance with those laws and principles. The ego is always the one that breaks these laws and principles. The ego free to act would erode, break, destroy all these laws and principles and eventually create a tremendous disorder. Abyss is Anti-Order The abyss is the place for the ego. This is because the abyss is the antithesis of the Being and the natural order. Disorder reigns in the abyss, as does breaking apart, disintegration and destruction. The ego in us is connected to the abyss and is destructive in nature and because we have had the ego for so long and the consciou...

Pursue the Path when Lust is Under Control - (384)

Introduction With lust if we are able to control it and keep it under control and feel very satisfied doing that we can pursue the path. Fundamental Step – Dash the Egotistical Need for Lust This step is so fundamental. It is imperative. Basically we have to have psychologically and biologically tamed the sexual waters and impulses, and to then have challenged the belief that we no longer need lust. We have to believe that we can live without the belief that says that we can't live without lust, that is without that psychological desire for gratification, distraction, adventure that it uses sex to fulfil. We have to have gotten to the stage where we don't need lust biologically or psychologically but we know for the path that it is needed, that is the Being in us needs sex, not lust to complete his inner creation. Conclusion We know very well that we need to transmute and that the transmutation is what satisfies and completes everything. End (384).

May All Beings Be Happy! - (383)

Image
A Wish to Help - Practice Is a wonderful wish. Imagine a beautiful blue light spreading from your heart covering the whole of the room, and filling the room and then extending to cover the street, the neighbourhood the city, the country the globe (Earth) then extending out to the other planets in our solar system. Imagine that blue light irradiating from your heart, healing, curing, benefitting and helping others. Use this Practice when in Difficulty with Others Master Samael gave a variation of the above practice to someone who was experiencing a certain difficulty with another person (Person A had offended or hurt person B). Maser Samael advised the person (person A) to concentrate on the heart, imagine the beautiful blue light extending toward the person (person B) and chant the mantra OM. Imagining that the blue light and the mantra heals and cures the person of the moral pain and harm. This practice shouldn’t...

Do Everything Consciously - (382)

Image
An Excellent Practice It is an excellent practice to go about our daily lives and do all the things that we do in a relaxed conscious state. One Thing at a Time Be conscious in everything that we do. To do this, just do one thing at a time. Be fully aware while acting, be alert and aware of the thoughts not allowing our consciousness to get caught in them. Conclusion In conclusion, relax, remember yourself remain alert and act. Master Samael said that what was very basic for him every day was to relax and self-remember. End (382).

Awakening occurs by Facets - (381)

Image
Awakening in the Areas of Life The awakening of consciousness occurs in practical life via the awakening in or to certain facets or sectors of life. Consciousness is Like a Diamond The consciousness is like a diamond of many faces or facets. We happen to awaken the consciousness facet by facet at a time. In other words we awaken in the various areas of life at a time. For example we awaken to the word, to sexuality, to trust, to love, to the Divinity, to speaking the truth, to our relationship with money, others, the Earth, the cosmos, to our dreams to the astral plane, to life, to death etc. etc. Conclusion Through living in intense alertness with the intention of awakening we awaken in aspects of sectors of life one by one, In conclusion, by insight and later conscious revelation we awaken to the truth of the various laws, principles and reality in the events and happenings of life. End (381).

About the Absolute? - (380)

Image
Introduction to Excerpts from V.M Samael Aun Weor The following extracts inform us that the Absolute has three aspects or layers. This is an amazing surprise. Master Samael describes each of these three aspects in the following excerpts. It is worth noting that the Kabbalistic and Christian traditions also coincide on there being three aspects to the Absolute. The Three Circles of the Absolute The Absolute has three aspects: Ain, Ain Soph and Ain Soph Aur. Ain “Ain, which is the same as Sat in Sanskrit; that is, the Unmanifested Absolute.” Ain Soph “Ain Soph, the second aspect. This is where a certain manifestation already exists. Here remain all creatures when the Great Pralaya (Cosmic Night) arrives, because they do not have the right to penetrate Ain, or Unmanifested Absolute which is beyond thought, the Verb, the atom, sound, beyond all that has form, number, weight, etc.” Ain Soph Aur “Ain Sop...

Abstract Space and the Absolute? - (379)

Image
Introduction to the Excerpt by V.M Samael Aun Weor The following excerpt taken from Master Sameal works essentially describes Ain in much more depth then what was provided in the previous post. This excerpt is also very useful to help us to understand more about the Absolute. Please Note Please note the following text is all one excerpt, I have taken to liberty to add in section titles to make it a little easier to read, these section titles do not appear in the original text by Master Samael and were not ever used by him. Abstract Space “Abstract Space is the Causa Causorum of all that is, has been and will be. Profound and joyful space is certainly the incomprehensible “Seity”, the ineffable mystic root of the seven Cosmos, the mysterious origin of all that we know as spirit, matter, universes, suns, worlds, etc. “That”, the Divine, the space of happiness, is a tremendous reality beyond the universe and the Gods. “That” has no dimension whatsoever, and truly ...

The Absolute - (378)

Image
Introduction to Extract by V.M Samael Aun Weor This extract written by V.M Samael Aun Weor is very good for us to get an idea and feeling of what the Absolute is. When one reads these paragraphs one comes to the conclusion that the Absolute is something indescribably profound, more profound than our greatest capacity of comprehension, yet we are all of it and that gives hope that one day we can know of its great mystery. Extract “The Absolute is the Being of all Beings. The Absolute is that which is, has always been, and always will be. It expresses as abstract absolute movement and repose. It is the cause of Spirit and of matter, but is neither one nor the other. The Absolute is beyond the mind; and the mind cannot understand it because what we must do is intuit its nature. The Absolute is beyond conditioned life. Beyond that which is relative is the Real Being, (He). He is Non-Being because He does not retain an...

Why Learn about the Absolute? - (377)

Image
Abstract and Impractical Perhaps Naturally the topic of the Absolute is a very abstract subject and one that is seemingly impossible to grasp with our mind. After all, how can the finite (our mind) grasp the infinite, impossible! Despite this, commonly we regard the absolute as something so very far away and the study of the Absolute as something impractical. However, from a knowledge point of view, it is very useful to study the Absolute. Origin and Destination Why? Because, the Absolute is the very initial origin and the very final resting point of us all. The Absolute answers those two very fundamental questions that none of us seem to have an answer for, where have we come from and where are we going. We have come from the Absolute and we are going back there. It is so useful to know where we have come from and where we are going, so to put our life into perspective and of course to understand our origin is to understand ourselves. To understand our final destination...

Everything Revolves Around Sex - (376)

Image
Introduction I remember reading this statement from Master Samael and I never really understood it. Though it seemed really important to me to try and understand it, since it was saying that the basis of all human social activity is really sexual and that meant that if I couldn’t or didn’t understand that then I didn’t really know much about what really goes on in life – that there was something secret underlying truth that I was ignorant of. This post represents one attempt at trying to understand this teaching of Master Samael. Three Stages in Sexual Interaction Every kind of sexual interaction has three stages, a beginning, a peak and an end. For supersexuality the peak is not the loss of the sexual energy and the peak can be at the same level of intensity as the end but the end is far in time from the peak. In normal sexual activities the peak is the end and the end in time is very close to the peak, almost coinciding. Every interaction between human beings is se...

Who can Control Us? - (375)

Introduction Who can control if we don't have weaknesses? Imagine Just imagine that if we did not have lust, anger, greed, fear, vanity, etc. we could not be controlled by anyone or anything. Conclusion So, if we do not want to be controlled or we feel controlled, work to eliminate or at least control your weaknesses. With your control over yourself you will be immune from the control of others over you. End (375).

Balancing the Three Brains - (374)

Image
Introduction To balance the brains is to align the three brains in everything that we do and or in the events and activities that we undertake. Balance is Harmony To balance the centres is to have the brains working in harmony related to that activity. That is no contradictions in the brains related to that event or activity. Contradictions Splinter Balance is stability, contradictions are a breaking apart, contradictions can not bring stability or unity or balance. Conclusion To balance the brains we have to eliminate contradictions. End (374).

Continuity, Memory and Consistency - (373)

Image
Introduction Continuity, memory, purpose, capacity, and results are fire factors that go well 1g one-and relatively important in the work on ourself and for that matter in anything and in any project in life. A Work Whenever we take on a work we have an end result in sight and that end result gives us the purpose or reason for taking on this work. Sometimes though, we have to though do the work for the love of doing the work and forgetting all about the end result. Normally, after having the end result in sight and the purpose, we have our certain innate capacity to do the work. However we may not have just yet continuity and memory related to that work we are taking on. Continuity Continuing is a magic ingredient for success in any project or work that we take on. It is to establish a line of work, in other words a series of steps that build upon each other. Usually, we leave huge gaps between the steps and if the time that passes in one of these gaps is too...
