The Path is About an Inner Ethics - (782)

Pursue an Inner Ethics

The path is an inner work as we well know. There are no physical or public awards for doing well on the path. There are no publicly known accolades here in the physical dimensions for how well one is going on the path. Internally though it is a different story. The path lives on in our inner ethics. The path gives life, purpose and direction to our inner ethics.



Life Ethics Not Enough, Inner Ethics are Needed

Everyone in life lives according to some type of ethics, though that common type of ethics is not really enough for the path and so we need an inner ethics to walk the path. The Gnostic schools with their instructors, missionaries and students do provide some sort of higher level of ethics but in the end it is all up to us to impose upon ourselves and follow a set of inner ethics that we set for ourselves based on our knowledge and understanding of the path, the work as it is and the Being as is required for the further development of the Being itself.

For example for life it is acceptable to lose the sexual energy, but for the path it is not ethical or acceptable. In many subtle ways we need to lay down a set of inner ethics for ourselves to live and act by.This ethics has to be made in accordance with the principles of the path, the work and the Being. 


Gnostic Schools Lay Down a Set Ethics

The Gnostic instructors and leaders don’t really know how one is going intimately or how one is going on the path, they can get glimpses but ultimately it is up to ourselves to know and to make improvements. We can’t follow the ethics of life, we can’t do as everyone else does because that will not allow us to progress. What is normal for people in life does not make the mark for the path, it is normal for people to strengthen and exercise the ego in life but for the path and for the work of the dissolution of the ego, this does not help us. We can do as others do in life and no one will reprimand us in life though if we do this we will not progress too far on the path.


Inner Ethics in Sexuality

Especially in the area of sexuality is where we need to follow an inner ethics set by us in accordance with the work, the path and the Being. One day I think that I will post something about the ethics in the supra-sexuality and in the practice of Alchemy as it has been taught to me.

In this area is so important to follow and inner ethics, because no one sees what we do in this area and no one can tell really if we are doing well, or not doing that well, perhaps they can glimpse something but no-one really cares to specifically inquire. If we are not doing well in this area, it affects us more than anything or anyone else.



Conclusion

So we need an inner ethics, an inner standard that we are constantly aspiring to and adhering to. If we make that standard or ethics: the application of effort to always transform, change and die to be ever more inline with the work, the path and the Being, we will do fine.

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).
