Fear is about Trust - (413)

Introduction

Fear is the inversion of that marvellous value of our consciousness or our Being that is called trust. Every instance of fear in a human being has rejection, pain, distrust and fear of the consequences.


Fear is Distrust

Within fear there is a tremendous distrust. The result is that we with fear have come to not trust anyone or anything.

If for example, we are mistreated or betrayed by someone we trust, our previous trust in that person is converted into distrust.

If a person goes into a house and is abused, for sure they do not want to go to that house again. The result of that experience is that we come to profoundly distrust that house and profoundly trust that something bad will happen to us if we go to that house again. That distrust or trust in the negative is fear.

The maximum in trust is that: “whatever happens I will be ok”. This is trust in our Being that He is powerful enough to make us all ok in very difficult circumstances.



If we are doing good we can trust that we are going to be fine, as the law of cause and effect never fails, it is always there solid and unmoving. If we do good, by law good will come to us.


Two Faces of Trust

Trust has two faces. One is for example: “I trust you will not hurt me” and the second one is that “we trust that whatever happens, we or God in us will manage or handle it all”.

The second face is the more complete one, because sometimes what we with the first face trust won’t happen, can happen and then if it does happen we have to have trust in ourselves and in our Being inside of us that we be ok or will manage and pull through those difficulties.


Where is our Trust?

We tend now days to trust in matter more now than in God. We actually trust more in ourselves and matter. God is the one that is above and on top of everything so putting our trust in God is to put everything that we can not control in His hands. Even if we trust in ourselves there are things that we can not control or influence and so fear may arise in us.


Trust and God

Men have lost the trust in faith and in God because they tried to reach God but somewhere along the line failed. Failure always brings about a loss in trust and faith.

There is a great lack of trust in the spirit and a huge trust in the ego, the mind and in the person. The solution is to build trust or faith on knowledge or experience. Otherwise it is only in the mind and things of the mind can easily be shaken off.


Conclusion

We acquire trust once again through acting not through anything else. Conscious faith is that is which is based on knowledge and past experience. This is the solution to acquire faith and trust and thus the most powerful weapon to combat fear.


End (413).

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).
