Intellectual Centre can be a Syphon – (440)

Introduction

The intellectual centre can be very useful and helpful and when put to the correct use it can do really marvellous things. However, as duality exists the intellectual centre can also do the opposite for us, and in this post I want to concentrate on how the intellectual centre can be a syphon of our emotional and sexual powers. Just as the picture below shows. The energy from our emotional or sexual centre is syphoned into the intellect and then within the intellectual processes that syphoned energy gets burnt up, with no practical and positive result for us or anyone else.



Just to finish this introduction, the intellectual centre is at its best when it’s processes move close to reality. In fact the better they embrace reality the better, that is when the intellectual centre really comes to light, and of course the opposite as well. When the intellectual centre veers far from reality, that is when it goes into fantasy that is when is does us the most disservice.


Emotional Arousal

When our emotions are aroused our emotional energy is fully active and we are very inspired and motivated and prone to act. However, if we do not act, we can then channel all that energy into our intellect and consume it with fantasy. That is acting in our mind, or more to the point, in the scenarios invented by and in our mind.

This can happen a lot when we listen to music that we particularly like.


Sexual Arousal

When our sexual centre is aroused the energy of the sexual centre is prone to move. If we transmute we move the energy inwardly and then we use the intellect in a very realistic way, imagining the energy rising up our spine and into our brain etc. However, we can also go into fantasy to make the energy move out, and the energy always moves out when we imagine unreal scenarios and believing something mistaken i.e. not real.


Conclusion

We have to avoid that of our intellectual centre becoming a syphon for our emotional and sexual energy. That way we can save our powers and energies and use them for something esoteric.


End (440).

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).
