Gnosis Wisdom

Introduction Many times we don’t know quite what to do during the day, when to wake up when to go to sleep and what to do. Are we sleeping too much are we wasting our time, are we doing what is really needed for us to do in the work? Well why not ask our Divine Mother to direct our day! He Who Wants Wisdom Must Die The quieter and emptier we are the more we can listen to our interior feelings and intuition and the easier it is to do what the Divine Mother would have us do. To do what the Divine Mother would have us do is very satisfying and reassuring because we can feel safe because our inner Divinity knows more about what we need and in doing what they would have us do is to fulfil their will, we can’t not do more than that. If we don’t fulfil their will we separate from them. Conclusion Ask the Divine Mother to direct your day to wake you up to indicate to you what you must do and how. Listen to your interior and use your discernment by using the work as a refe...

Introduction 61 years today (today 27 th of October 2015 to 27 th of October 1954), have passed since the bodhisattva AUN WEOR who had the human name of Victor Manuel Rodriguez incarnated his human soul and became the Venerable Master Samael Aun Weor. If it were not for that Day! If it were not for that day we would not be here studying Gnosis and we certainly would not have the knowledge and the map of the path laid out before us. There would be so much confusion amongst us and perhaps very few would really have made or could have the possibility of making it to their realisation. A Precedent, A Major Step and a Big Day for Humanity This event set a precedent for humanity, if one got it and left behind the way clear of theory and confusion then the rest could or can follow. This day was the first step in that process. That day was the first major step in the integration of the Logos Samael with His most di...

Introduction If we want to know more about an ego, if we want to comprehend more of an ego we have TO STOP!!! STOP Feeding or Using it to Solve Problems! When we feed the ego and use it we shut down the possibility of us learning from it and we can never ever give our essence the chance to solve the problem using its functions and ways. The way of the essence sometimes can be slower and requires more patience but if we don’t stop the essence can never act and so we will never be able to verify for ourselves that there is a different way and that our very own beautiful and precious essence can do the same thing but in a very edifying and dignifying way. In other words if we don’t stop we can not learn by direct experience that the ego is wrong! Conclusion As soon as we stop feeding the ego or using it to solve a problem, the ego will suffer intensely but we are in a very good position to learn exactly what the ego...

Introduction Lust uses laziness to not transmute. Why? Because lust knows that the key is transmuting and when we do not transmute, lust knows that it has all the energy to itself to misuse. The more we transmute the less lust we are going to have or feel inside of us. Egos Link to Each Other Here is another link between the ego of lust and another ego. Lust like pride seems to really create a lot of links or relationships to other egos, definitely much more than any other ego does. Conclusion Even the essence can use some egos to help us. For example the pride can be used to overcome fear. The only catch is that we strengthen pride in the process but later on we can work on pride once we have that fear under control. End (564).

Introduction To die in oneself facet by facet is to terminate small contracts with creation. This is because with the transformation or the death of little egoic facets we come to learn the lesson and when we have not learnt the lesson we are tied to creation, or more accurately speaking to life. He Who Wants Wisdom Must Die Really when we die in a facet we gain or learn wisdom, we learn the lesson or the truth that was reversed or inverted and obscured or hidden from us. When we have freed the trapped essence we learn how it got trapped or conditioned. We learn what the mistake was that our essence made in creating that ego. We know why we created it and we know that it was a wrong or erroneous move to have created that facet or “I” belonging to a certain defect. Conclusion What we have to do is to learn what the ego wants, what it believes, what it feels, what it desires and when we stop giving it what it wants...

Introduction There are times in life and especially more so in the work on ourselves where it just seems all too hard. And because it seems to hard the last thing we want to do is try and move forward. But we know we have to! The decisive factor is how we chose to move forward. In this post I am going to put forward a suggestion. This technique has certainly worked for me, and it may work for you or it may not, though it may be just good to keep up your sleeve to help out a friend or student who is passing through such a stage. The Remedy The remedy or technique consists of two steps. The first step is to make a plan. But not just any plan, the next section describes in more detail how the plan should be made. Plan The plan must have a firm and clear goal and the way to get to that goal must be made by taking small steps. Very small steps at first and bigger steps later on when one’s confidence and energy has grown. Baby Steps The step consists of taking...

Introduction The conviction of the person and even the Being in person, who wants to be complete by him or herself is strong or at least has to be strong! By complete I wish to refer to being complete in dealing with one’s own impulses, wants, needs (false or real), with one’s own love and with one’s own sexuality. There can exist in a person the conviction to be complete but by oneself and not through others. The Conviction Many times thinking of the following: “When am I going to be complete, that is, be complete in my happiness, in my love, in my sexuality and not depend on others to give me the sense of being complete or allowing me to be happy, to feel content within my own skin and love others and be self-fulfilling in my sexuality” I think to myself it is about time that I stop this ego’s search for compensation and correct its function to stop finding these things outside and find them once and for all from inside. Conclusion There has to be a point wher...

Introduction This one question: “Will it Take me Closer to the Being” has helped me immensely in when working on self-love and jealousy. I write this post explaining how this question can be like an immediate sweet balm to the pain of the ego with the hope that it can be just as useful to you as it has been to me. When Applied When self-love bites our emotions making us to feel left out, unloved, taken advantage of, used, regarded as an afterthought etc. applying this key is marvellous. When we see that others are ahead of us in being loved by someone we want to be liked or loved by this key is marvellous. When the love or affection or kindness or softness that we usually received is not given or replaced by harshness, scolding words and indifference this key is marvellous. When we are not close to the Master and others are this key is marvellous. Why Why is this key so marvellous in these situation...

Introduction Sometimes while working on the ego we ask the Divine Mother to eliminate this or that particular “I” we feel that we are empty without force, and later on we see that nothing has really changed in us in relation to that “I”. All Comes Down to Comprehension This situation arises because we don’t really want to die just yet. We are a bit hesitant or we feel that we are still a bit too attached to the ego. We basically feel like this because we need more comprehension. It all comes down to a matter of comprehension. When we comprehend the ego enough we are more and more ready to see it dissolved in us. In fact our comprehension does a lot of the weakening and untangling of the ego. Ask for Comprehension Instead The solution is then to ask for comprehension instead. Pray to the Divine Mother and the Third Logos asking for help to comprehend that ego in a deeper and deeper way. Conclusion This see...

Introduction Here is just an idea. Idea The idea is to take the last five or ten minutes out of each hour or as many as you can in your day to die. That is to go somewhere, concentration on an ego or a facet of an ego and pray to the Divine Mother and chant KRIM. Conclusion We need to also take some time of course for observation and comprehension. Funnily enough though doing this practice releases sparks - very small sparks mind you of comprehension when chanting the mantra KRIM while concentrated on an ego. End (558).

Introduction We need cosmic capital, because it is what saves us, it is what really helps us when are in difficulty. Physical money can sometimes help, but cosmic capital does always. It prevents us from getting sick and from suffering, or if we do have to suffer it makes our suffering easier to bear. AM: What will I do today to Get Dharma? Plan your day consciously to get dharma. Plan to work on yourself from the first thing in the morning or at night before going to sleep. Know what you are going to do and how you are going to do it. The firmer you are about achieving it the more likely you will. Factor in mystical death, exercising your consciousness and doing something for others, whether the latter be praying for someone, giving someone something or doing something for others for their physical, psychological or spiritual benefit.  Noon: What have I done to get Dharma? Sometimes we can get busy at work and we can’t so easily fit in our practices or wo...

Introduction Our esoteric finances, that is the management of our cosmic capital is very much like the management of our physical finances. In fact they are almost the same. They follow the same principles. Physical Finances We get into debt when what we spend each exceeds what we make each day. If we have some savings we can cancel this debt, but here will come a time when our savings will dry up and we will end up in debt. The best thing for our physical finances is to make more then what we spend each day. We do this by: earning and by stopping ourselves from over spending. The exact same principles apply esoterically, we need to be aware of our physical finances but what is more important is to be very aware of our esoteric finances or cosmic capital. Unfortunately human beings are not very aware of their cosmic capital balance at all. Most of us ride between debt and capital, really I would like that we all ride in dharma and increasing dharma, that is increasi...

Introduction This is a very brief post about light in esotericism. Light is akin to consciousness and light obeys the same laws as does consciousness. We know from science that there are many wavelengths of light. There are the three broad sections of light wavelengths: infrared, visible and ultraviolet. The human eye can only see the visible part of the spectrum. The infrared and ultraviolet sections are invisible to the human eye, and this may account for why we can not see the infra-dimensions and the superior dimensions of nature which are saturated with these two sections of the light spectrum. The inferior regions with infrared and the superior regions with ultraviolet. Infrared Master Samael says that the inferior regions of nature or the infra-dimensions, that is the abyss are saturated with infrared light. That is the light present in the abyss belongs to the infrared spectrum. Visible The visibl...

Introduction A major part of our lives is all about avoiding pain. Pain in so many ways rules our lives. My missionary told us that one very important step in awakening is to liberate ourselves from pain. As long as the ego is alive there will always be some kind of pain that we will experience. It seems like we can’t avoid it. Well experience is showing me that we can’t until avoid it until the ego is all dead. So we have to either get use to it or learn somehow to not be phased by it. To experience it with awareness observing it but having the attitude that and firm knowledge that it will pass through us and go, pain is always leaving us actually. Because its job is to take us to healing what is wrong. Liberate It There are two steps to doing this. The full way is to penetrate deep into the pain and dissolve it from the inside. This takes time and lots of comprehension. This though is the full final solution and it also requires the payment of many Karmic debts. ...

Introduction A person can become really ready to take a big step in the dissolution of an ego due to many factors. One of these factors, of which I am going to mention in this post is when we feel pain deep in ourselves out of the knowledge and understanding that we are in fact harming our Being, our spiritual development and our relationship to the Being and of course if we are harming the relationship with our Being we also harm the relationship between ourselves and others, especially those who are working on themselves. Conflict Inside When we fight with the ego we feel the conflict, the division between going with what the ego wants and or going with the work. It may seem that to go with the work is impossible, too hard and dry. We may feel that we can do it but not for long. When we feel like this obviously we are lacking a very strong convincing factor in us that will push the battle in the favour of the work, the path and the Being. A Convincing Factor is Need...

Introduction Sometimes there are really marvellous keys that work wonders for us, more so than many other keys. This is a key that has so far really worked marvels inside me. I think that these very particular keys that really work for us are keys that we have unknown to us over years of experience applied or somehow suspected that they work. Or it could be that these very keys that work for us are the very same keys that we applied and practiced in our esoteric past. Anyhow here goes the explanation of this key: “Remain open!”. Remain Open This key is applied by first becoming aware that what we are is consciousness. Then one puts their awareness on their awareness or consciousness and one then opens. That is imagine yourself to be like an open channel where anything can flow through you without obstruction. You open yourself to others, to what they say and to what they want and then you open yourself up to your...

Introduction More than anything pride forgets the Father, while lust forgets the mother. So when we are lustful we are not relating too well to our Divine Mother and when we are proud we are not relating well to our Father. In truth though when we have either one of these two pride or lust we are not relating well to the Being in general and that includes both the Divine Mother and the Father. But when we are lustful we are going more against our Mother and when we are proud we are going more against our Father. Why because these two egos lust and pride have in their conditioning parts of the essence that are opposed or antithetical to the Mother and the Father. Pride Pride specialises in acting by itself, in disregard to any authority or any other power or force. Pride is rebellious and disobedient by nature. Pride is in fact separation. In the fifth major initiation the initiate has to do the wil...

Introduction With lust we think that we have to experience in some way another person and there seems to be no way out of it. We just have to come into some sort of experience with another person and that is it, or if not, we just have to entirely sacrifice lust and that seems really hard, so we end up in a real fix. However, as you may suspect that is a state brought about due to a lack of understanding, and therefore with understanding it can be remedied. Modus Operandi What is going on inside of ourselves is a projection of pleasure and that projection actually creates pleasurable sensations in our centres especially the sexual centre. So then that projection only appears given some triggers and there are two triggers. One trigger is some sort of contact with another person, and the second trigger is our imagining or thinking about that contact. Tricked So then we get fooled into thinking that we need the other person to provide this pleasure which is really t...

Introduction That piece of essence conditioned to process itself lustfully above all forgets the Mother, that is our Divine Mother. If we were to see every lady as a mother the lustful perception would be considerably or somewhat neutralised. In truth every lady is a potential mother, and vice versa if one is a lady, every man is a potential father. Lust forgets so many things. Though one thing we should not forget if we want a different outcome in the presence of lust is our Divine Mother and our Being. Proof The proof of this is that when one works on lust one respects more the Divine Mother and draws closer to the Divine Mother and lovers her more than before. Conclusion Remembering the Divine Mother helps us to counteract lust and to weaken it and therefore later gradually eliminate it. End (549).

Introduction Question: How do you something is wrong? Answer: By pain being felt. If we feel pain of some sort then something is wrong. Why Pain? Pain is all about consequences, where pain is felt is where the action has the strongest negative effect, that is, where it is the most wrong. In general if we get a negative result or circumstance then it was wrong. Pain Teaches Pain teaches and shows us what gets affected. We may think that there is nothing wrong with what we do but if it causes us pain somewhere then that is where the error or the wrong is. For example we may do something and think that there is nothing wrong with it at all. But later, it usually always takes a while, (sometimes not though) we start to feel pain. Where we feel pain that is where the wrong is. We may be expecting to feel pain from the outside going in, but it can be from the inside going out, and that is when we...

Introduction Koalas and Kangaroos are unique to Australia and Australia is a very large remnant of Lemuria. Koalas are always sleepy and kangaroos have a long and thick tail. Koalas – Sleeping Consciousness Koalas remind us of the sleeping consciousness that we need to awaken, and it was in Lemuria that the consciousness of human beings first began to sleep. Kangaroos – Kundabuffer Organ The tail of the kangaroos remind us of the kundabuffer organ, that first was given and developed in human being in Lemuria. We have to overcome the power of the remnant of the kundabuffer organ in us by awakening the kundalini. Conclusion Australia is an interesting land after all and has its esoteric features, which we often overlook. The keys are there in those animals, wake up (do the opposite of the koala) and awaken the kundalini. End (547).

Introduction Sexuality is a sword. Used in either way, that is correctly or wrongly, it cuts or divides just as does a sword. A sword can cut and harm others or oneself or a sword can cut and free others or oneself. Divides Sexuality divides outside and inside. Outside When used wrongly it divides by ruining relationships with others. Inside When used wrongly sexuality divides oneself inside, between the decent honest person and the person who has problems. When used correctly sexuality divides what is superfluous and useless from our interior (psychology) and with further correct applications it frees to unite. Unites Sexuality also unites, though used wrongly it divides. Conclusion Sexuality is a powerful sword that can divide for worse or for good. For worse, separation results, for good unity results. End (546).

Introduction I don’t know much about salmon, besides its flesh being an unusual red colour and which when poached tastes delicious, is that when it is time for the salmon to spawn they swim upstream taking great risks and consuming great amounts of energy to find a quiet space of still water to spawn and later die. Return to their Origin The salmon return to their birth place to spawn and later to die, they in effect close a cycle, they return to their original point of departure. They show us how birth, life, death and new life are all connected. They show us also that in being able to close the cycle sacrifice and effort is needed. A Lesson from the Salmon We are like salmon we leave the absolute and we enter into creation and to return we need to swim upstream using our sexual forces. On a smaller scale, to die or return the trapped essence it to its original unconditioned state, we after having fed it...

Question Which should we love more? Our Being or our spouse, friends, family etc.? Answer Easy- our Being! Why? Because the Being is immortal. We are the Being in our depths and the Being will always be with us. Our Being is love itself. If we are not with our love, which is our Being how can we love others? Conclusion Have had the experience of forgetting your Being to love another? If you have, how did it work out? Horrible right, a mess of suffering right? There you go that is your answer! I honestly think to love our Being more than anything else in our current capacity. Everything else at one point or another in our life will pass, or leave us, perhaps not because they won’t to but because they have to, because they are not our Being, they have their Being in their own very depths. End (544).

Introduction Sometimes the ego or a bunch of closely related egos can unleash a storm within us. There are some very clear moments during such a storm, where we have a choice to get swept away by the storm or hold on. It is so much easier to hold on in a storm when you have something to hold onto. That is the whole trick to surviving an egoic storm, is to have something to hold onto and just hold on with all your strength or as much strength as necessary. What do you have to Hold onto This is big question for me. What do I have to hold onto? Nothing, something, something small, something great, or a great number of things... Obviously the more the better and the greater the better, because the easier it will be for us to hold onto. If we don’t have much we just have to generate or create something to hold onto. We have to make some psychological handles with a good set of grips on them to help ourselves out. B...
