Gnosis Wisdom

Introduction This post comes as an answer to a question that I received about a previous post to do with the types of karma. You can see the original post here. http://gnosticesotericstudyworkaids.blogspot.com.au/2016/01/some-of-many-types-of-karma-684.html This post adds a practical example for each of the three types of karma in the esoteric category that you can see below and find in the original post. Cone   So for the cone type of karma, this happens often in life in relationships for example where we start a relationship and something happens where both people disagree and a little later down the track due to resentment something else happens and the relationships starts to get affected and certain beliefs or impressions start to creep where we believe the other party don’t really like us anymore and so this belief causes us to act in a way that further damages the relationship and things get worse, m...

Introduction I was once asked about what Gnosis says about time travel. This is what I answered to the person who asked. As an aside, a very short answer, if it were possible, the Divine Law would have to allow it. Because we can imagine how catastrophic it could be. Answer I have wondered a lot about this subject but have never really found an answer to it. Master Samael does mention somewhere that he knew someone, a physicist I recall, that would enter the fourth vertical and travel back in time. As far as I have seen that is really all that Master Samael says about it. Time is Experienced Differently in the Different Dimensions Time is measured differently in the different dimensions of nature. So it is possible to see into the future but via the internal worlds. So for example say it is April 20, 2016 three o’clock in the afternoon, we can go into the astral and see something that is going to happ...

Supplementary Points on: What is it? This post adds to the previous post by providing some more complimentary information about the psychological moon and the permanent centre of gravity in the consciousness. What is the Centre of Gravity in the Consciousness We can have for a moment our centre of gravity on our consciousness but to have it permanently on our consciousness is another thing. Despite this, that is our goal. The question arises what is a centre of gravity? In practical human terms it is the place upon which the majority of our thinking and feeling converge upon, and it is the point upon which we, most of the time act out of and for. It is what occupies the majority of our time and our attention. Everything in our life tends to revolve around that point. More or less the majority of our activities gravitate to that one point. Everyone has a Centre of Gravity A truth - though not a very obvious on...

What is it? This post addresses the question of what is it really. Question What is the psychological moon or the permanent centre of gravity ion the consciousness? Answer It basically means that we have our consciousness steadfastly positioned at the centre of our psyche. Which implies that what is active in us is the consciousness, meaning that the consciousness in us is the one governing our psychological processes, opposed to the mind, ego or egos and personality being in control of our inner processes. In other words the consciousness takes on the role of the governing or active principle in our psyche and the mind, ego and personality take a step back into the passive role. Implications For the above to happen within us, it must mean that the essence or consciousness is sufficiently large to displace the majority of the personality, mind and ego or egos, and if a large ego happens to take control, t...

Voluntary and Conscious We are not born with it. If we were born with it, it is because we created it in the past. The permanent centre of gravity in our consciousness or the psychological moon is a matter of voluntary conscious work. Its Formation Requires To form the psychological moon or the permanent centre of gravity in the consciousness requires: ·          the continuous action of the consciousness so to crystallise its presence in our psyche, ·          efforts to awaken the free essence ·          to dissolve certain elements which allow one to shift one’s centre of gravity from the personality to the essence or consciousness Relation with the Four States of Consciousness It is intimately related to the third state of consciousness. Development of the Consciousness ...

A New Series of Posts What I would like to do in the next few or several posts, is to cover a series of points or sub-topics all to do with answering the following questions: ·          What is the psychological moon or the permanent centre of gravity? ·          How it is created? ·          What are some of its characteristics in the most practical of senses? A Good Symbol A good symbol I think for the permanent centre of consciousness is a candle burning in a clear glass container. The flame is the essence and the light of the flame is the consciousness and the glass container represents the persistence or constancy of the light, meaning that the wind – symbols of the thoughts can not blow out the flame or the consciousness does not so easily fall into identification and fascination - th...

Introduction At the closing of a missionary course a few years ago now a missionary gave a short talk and one of the very interesting things that he said which impacted me greatly and has stuck with me was the following: “every initiation is a show of trust of the Being in us” Trust of the Being in Us This is really a very special and true statement. It means that the Being in us only sends the Divine Mother to awaken as the kundalini in us when the Being knows that we can be trusted. That is that our past and current actions and inner psychological processes are trustworthy or worthy of carrying gradually bit by bit the different parts of the Real Being in us, starting with the Divine Mother in her aspect as the Kundalini. A Profound Question I often ask myself am I thinking, feeling and acting so as to win the trust of my Being. This is really quite a profound question. It is also a very powerful que...

Introduction The following excerpts come from a book or document titled: “5 Element Meditations” by William Bodhri. They are essentially about how the elements play a role in the processes of birth and death. In the formation of Life “Following the same process, before conception you can say we have no body, so we say "everything is empty." Since the body's initial cause is a thought of sex on the part of parents, this is the wind element arising. When the egg and sperm come together and unify through the process of sexual intercourse, this is the fire element of sexual activity and then the water element of cohesion. Then of course we have the earth element appearing, which is the embryo. As the fetus grows, that's the wind element exercising its functioning again, and the process continues.” In the Process of Death “As to the process of death, we can analyze the disintegration of physical ...

Meaning Exactly? Meaning that what we see as spiritual or what we consider to be spiritual or belonging to spirituality, we think that it should come in line with the nature, patterns, ways, words etc. of our own personality. This is something so natural that we don’t even see or suspect that we are actually doing it. However, it becomes very obvious to us that something is wrong when we come into contact with a spiritual school, organisation, association etc. or a spiritual person. What inevitably happens is that the way that the spiritual school or person operates or organises things or speaks or lays things down etc. doesn’t agree with something in us and we think to ourselves: “this is tough or cruel, how can this be spiritual?”. Sometimes we may be right but most of the time sometimes we are wrong all because we see the event through the eyes of personality. How Does that Work? What happens is that in our personality we have certain ideas of what is good and kind...

A Reason The reason why deep down like justice movies is because we need and want to restore justice within us. The main point of injustice being that the sleeping essence (the many egos) is the master and lord in us and the true master and lord (our Real Being) has been pushed aside. A Point of Justice Within The one that should govern and reign over our inner processes and actions is our Real Being, however due to our spiritual fall in the past we have this situation inverted, where the sleeping essence that which causes many problems for ourselves and others is in control of generating our psychological processes and taking all the events and impressions of life in its particular way and producing answers to these events and impressions. The real injustice within us is that the sleeping essence in us is in control. It by rights should be that the awakened essence in us is in control. Shouldn’t it? We would prefe...

An Esoteric Goal An esoteric goal that we should all have in the beginning is to work so to become an accepted chela or disciple of the Christ or the Great White Lodge. When are we Accepted? Master Samael says that we become an accepted chela (disciple) of the Christ or the White Lodge when we finish the minor initiations and when we pass the test of justice. He says we are then given a cape and a ring whose design reflects the ray of the new chela’s inner Being. Conclusion This has to be a great thing to become then an officially accepted disciple of the white lodge and of the Cosmic Christ. It means that we will from then on be guided in our path. End (868).

We Gnostics are Potential Vehicles of the White Lodge We as Gnostic students are many things and one of them is a vehicle for the white lodge. We are all essentially conduits for the white lodge to deposit its force into so to help us and for us to help others and humanity. Basically the white lodge needs physical vehicles here on Earth to be able to carry out its missions to help humanity and the planet. The white lodge we know is in the internal worlds and therefore moves tremendous internal forces though in the end these forces must converge onto something physical so that these internal forces can function here in the physical world. We Need to be Better Vehicles We always within ourselves can be a better vehicle for the white lodge. We can do this by creating more space inside of ourselves for the Being and the white lodge to occupy and work in us. The more awakened we are, that is the more that we have th...

What do you Think? What do you think? Does the personality of a human being love or not? Course Not! It is the essence is a human being that really loves. Certainly not the personality. We know that the ego can appear to love when its interests are being pleased, and as the egos are the main ingredients of the personality how can the personality really love? Similar Personalities and Different Personalities Similar personalities don’t love either. They get along, because there are not clashes or very little clashes in personality. Conclusion Different personalities clash a lot and there we can see that there is not love there. Personality has a certain set of functions to fulfil and love is not one of them. But being polite, agreeable and considerate can be one of them but love is a different story all together. It is belongs to the essence, the human soul and the Real Being. End (866).

Opposites Transmuting and fornication are two opposites. People focus or direct their thoughts into matter or in other words circumstances and people during arousal of the sexual centre because it is to leads them to feel pleasure, namely pleasure of the senses. Joy of the Sexual Centre A function of the sexual centre and the sexual energy is to generate joy (Master Samael says that it is a legitimate joy) and well-being and so if people direct their thoughts and focus towards the heights in themselves, that is towards the Real Being in themselves they may arrive at a feeling of mystical ecstasy instead of the carnal pleasure of the senses. People Seek Sexual Joy through Activity People seek sexual activity to feel the pleasure of the sexual energy and they must get pleasure because that is one function of the sexual energy but because their focus is towards the senses they usually get the pleasure of the psy...

Projection - a Major Part The major part of lust is projection. If we were to take away that aspect of projection there would be very little of a lustful reaction. Impression then Projection Normally what happens is that we receive an impression and that goes into our psychology and what is produced is a reaction in the form of a semi-voluntary projection. What happens then is our energies flow into that projection and then it develops into a reaction of lust. A very important observation is the projecting action of this ego. Half of the reaction is taken away if we don’t allow that ego to project something into the mind. Energies follow thought always just as emotion and action do. Mind Gives Direction for Energy Flow The mental part of the projection gives the energies a direction to flow in. Energy always needs a channel or a direction to flow to or in. If there is no direction or channel there is like an explosion or implosion. We can always avoid explosions...

We Have All Wanted it at Some Point I think that we have all at some point wanted attention or suffered from the lack of it. Some people may really suffer from the lack of it making it really worth while having a deeper look into it. Why do we Want Attention? Why do we want attention? Why do we feel at times that we need attention? What does it give us? Why does it mean so much to us? A very obvious answer to these three questions is that attention means something very important to us! The key resides in us finding out what in particular it means to us in our psychology. This is what everyone has to find out. What it can Mean? Receiving attention can mean consideration, love, care, good will etc. Then obviously the lack of these things by the way our mind thinks, will mean the opposite of love, care, good will etc. The lack of attention to our mind can even mean cruelty, indifference, disdain, arrogance and hatred or ill-will. Obviously interpreting the lac...

Gets Difficult Sometimes it gets very difficult to die in ourselves. This could be due to the ego being quite strong or either we are not going about it effectively. Sometimes it is both at the same time, that is the wrong technique and a strong ego. When the ego comes if we know it is the ego we have to say to ourselves: “I recognise these thoughts and feelings as strong and compelling as they are belong to this ego that I know well. It is an ego. It is not really me, without it this event will not bother me, even if it seems unfair I need to let this ego go out of my human machine”. KRIM Then we can chant KRIM and ask the Divine Mother to work on it. Later on we can dive deeper into it, to see why we have it, why it appears, what it wants, how and why. Main Thing The main thing here is to keep it at the outer edge of our psychology and not feed it. The wrong technique and out problem is to let it in a...

Continuing On… If Lust I think that this is worse than fear. However both can be rectified by the understanding of respect for the other person and the awareness of what one is doing. If it is lust that is touching it is doing so to satisfy its very instinctive desires and holy moly after the first few touches what more is there for that ego to want. It is a very morbid ego then. However, lust works with the emotions and it is uses the touches as an attempt to get close and intimate to the person. So to bring them closer to him, to link the person closer to him so to secure his position and control. Such a Man will be a Disaster in Alchemy Can you imagine such a man being naked and naked with his wife about to practice the Alchemy, with his sexual apparatus fully activated. That man will not be able to cope. If he has that tendency to always touch then with those added powerful impressions of himself and his wife naked and his own sexual force in activity he won’t...

Fear is not Love How do we know that we are doing things out of fear? That is very easy, because we get angry when our touches etc. are not reciprocated, acknowledged or appreciated We get very angry when they are rejected. When we observe this we can be very sure that we are doing it because we want to be loved and we are trying to fill some insecurity gap or some other gap in us. The basic belief is that “we should be loved by having our touches reciprocated”. Is this is really true, maybe we can be loved in a different way, people after all show love in many different ways and plus a woman may really not like being touched all the time because it makes her to feel as if she is a toy or an object of possession, which she certainly is not! She is a human being, equal to a man! Women May not Like Being Touched All the Time Of course they don’t. Which woman does? It spells out to anybody that something is wrong with the man, who is always touching, either he is very lust...

What’s Wrong with these People that are Always Touching? There is something odd with men that touch and touch their girlfriends, partners, finance’s, wives and even other women. Lust or Fear It is certainly something instinctive, whether that instinctive part be to do with lust or be to do with fear. Both of these two factors have a strong instinctive component. If Fear If it is fear, such a person touches and touches as if to say “I am here, look at me I am loving you, I am giving you tenderness, a beautiful thing, a virtue, my heart through this touch, my love… so please love me back!”. The fear involved is the fear of not being loved. The touching person wants to be loved and is scared of not being 'loved' or losing 'love' that he touches and touches thinking that that is the way to get love or make sure to himself that there is love there and it is not going away or getting less. Really in such a case it is that the man wants to be loved ...

The Right Place The right place to place our will and effort is into creating the merits of the heart. Drive your will and effort into the work that will take you closer to your Being. This is an aspect of real humility and sacrifice. We fall into pride and ambition when we put our will and effort into only the goal or the result and nothing else. End (858).
