Master Samael’s Spoken Cure for Depression - (824)

Introduction

Master Samael in one of his talks that was recorded mentioned a remedy to depression.

Perhaps he had passed through some kind of depression or knew someone that had or was passing through it at that time. We don’t really know, never mind the remedy he gave is what is important for now.


His Remedy

He said that if one enters into mediation and goes into profound remembering of the Being one can come out of the depression that one feels oneself to be in.



How to Start to Apply the Remedy

If we though start by practicing mental silence, that is take 15 to 20 minutes to sit down and focus on not thinking at all. This practice though so simple has some really profound effects.

It has some profound effects because it activates the conscious which displaces the fear that is causing the depression. Also with depression there is a kind of vacuum or emptiness and that needs to be filled. When we activate the consciousness the consciousness itself begins to fill that void. The consciousness fills that void with the possibility of many things, among them is a purpose in the Being. This experience or a purpose in the Being alters the depressed state dramatically.


The Practice

Any way give it a try. Sit down, relax, be still, focus your attention on the mind and do your best to observe all the thoughts and let each one go. Keep your focus on the alertness required to see the thoughts. Then after some time go to you r heart and just listen in stillness and silence. Make an effort to open the heart to receive and perceive, and just concentrate your focus there. Perceiving and very quietly and deeply sending waves of opening and embracing to the Real Living Being that you carry inside of you and that is you in the higher depths.


A Recommendation (Maybe Good Maye Not)

I say opening and embracing because yearning and searching makes it worse because it introduces into our background a sadness a loneliness that we are far from the Being and that he won’t come to us and consequently we don’t feel anything, we end up disappointed with the practice and worse off than we were before the practice.



End (824).

Kundry from Parsifal Unveiled - (3948)

The character Kundry is very unusual, and has a mysterious role in Wagner's opera: Parsifal. As master Samael explains, Kundry represents the archetype of the feminine. That mysterious yet extraordinarily powerful force that can raise a man to the heights of realisation or sink him into the abyss of failure.  Kundry in the opera takes on a few different opposing roles, one where she is the temptress that seduced the king of the Holy Grail: King Amfortas giving Klingsor the opportunity to steal the Lance of Longinus and wound his side. She then helps the wounded king searching for balms to heal the wound in his side, then she is again the temptress that tries to seduce Parsifal the young knight who tries to redeem the lost lance. When Parsifal is victorious destroying the castle of Klingsor Kundry changes roles to become a servant of the holy grail and the knights of the order of the holy grail. These are all aspects of the powerful feminine force that is varied and has many differe...

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...
