Sound the Beginning Post 1

Sound the Beginning Post 1 - (764)

Introduction

The following series of posts are a little bit of information about sound and mantras. I think that, especially if you are studying Gnosis, knowing about sound and mantras is worthwhile because in Gnostic practice much use is made of mantras.

Sound - the Beginning and the Highest

Sound is the beginning and it is also the highest. Why one may ask. Isn’t light the highest and wasn’t light the first thing that was manifest in creation? After all we are all seeking enlightenment and that seems to be the highest goal that a human being can achieve. Not bad, but sound is still the beginning and the highest. Read on to learn why.

In the Beginning…

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. ²The same was in the beginning with God. ³ All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. ⁴ In him was life; and the life was the light of men. ⁵ And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.”

John 1, verses1-5.

As the bible says creation is due to the word or to sound and light exists in creation. Light is only present in creation and what is before creation or light is darkness or uncreated light. Please note, though this darkness is not evil. It is the obscure profound darkness of non-being that is in the Absolute.

Elohim – Army of the Word

Master Samael says it was the Elohim who are the army of the word that sung (using sound or the word) creation into existence. Sounds is a very creative force, we just have to look at the creative power of our own words and see how what we say creates numerous good and bad circumstances for us and others.

Conclusion

This planet and the universe that we know and the parts that we don’t know and don’t see are a result of the divine creative word. Sound or the word precede light and creation.

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).
