Hypnotic Grip of the Ego - (536)

Introduction

What is so really very hard for us in dissolving the ego, is its hypnotic grip. The hypnotic grip id what ties us to the ego and basically, in synthesis the hypnotic grip makes the ego or rather its excuses, reasons, compulsions, desires seem absolutely real, authentic, legitimate, within our right, honest, correct etc. etc.


Reason Why

The real reason why we can not give up the ego is because we feel it real or one of the above reasons given above. We when the ego manifests have the option to just let it go, to ignore it, to not pay attention to it or to push it into the background, to displace it from our psyche but the reason why we don’t and we chose the ego is because of the hypnotic grip.

The hypnotic grip makes the issues of the ego seems real. But we don’t believe that now, but in time we come to know that the reasons of the ego are not really real. They are the ego itself. We really urgently need with regards to the ego we are working on recognise this. When we don’t believe that that powerful reason is so real, we feel fine, the ego goes, and the issue fixes itself up from its own side or from both of our sides with what is real between us.

For example, we may worry thinking a relationship will end or be damaged and feel great pain about that, but that of looking after the relationship has to be let go of, if we want to dissolve that ego. That worry is not real or is it really a factor that will solve the relationship problem. Let the love between the two or lack of love sort or fix the relationship.


Conclusion

Try and do that, see that those reasons can be overcome, that they are not so legitimate and real. Because there is your freedom, in letting go of those very powerful reasons you will only find freedom. Hanging on to them you will only find the pain of the ego.

That is the door to your freedom - letting go of the hypnotic grip. Once the hypnotic grip has been overcome, the ego is very weak and its death is not far away.


End (536).

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).
