Discern Right from Wrong

Discern Right from Wrong - (933)

Introduction

What is wrong hurts and what is right doesn’t. That simple.

There are times in our psychological work that we seem not to be able to understand or see that something is wrong.

One Way to Know Which is Which

One way to know that something is wrong is to look at its consequences in two fields, what happens inside of us and what happens outside of us. If we hurt as a result as a result of what happens in either of these fields then it is wrong. Consider this example.

An Example

We may not think that to have a beer now and then at 100pm at night is wrong. We say it is not hurting anyone, I am drinking it in my house, no one knows, I feel apparently ok etc.

If one is to look into this deeply one may feel inside of him or herself that one is faltering in their personal will and not doing their best in relation to their work and heir Being and so one deep down feels low or disappointed. See hurt equal wrong.

Consider the Consequences

The other thing is to consider the consequences, say somebody finds out and then their opinion of you will drop and if they are students of yours they may leave your group or get disappointed with Gnosis (which is wrong because Gnosis is not a person it is knowledge) or they may make a scandal or spread rumours. All of which will cause you hurt.

Conclusion

The results should always be considered when discerning if something is wrong or right.

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...

Embrace Motor Centre Lingo to Act - (6101)

To overcome the overthinking issue and the lamentation of not doing, we can use a key where we embrace the language of the motor centre. Before we do that we need to know the language of the motor centre. The language of the motor is action, it is doing. It is life in motion. It is starting, it is 'getting stuck into' a task without reasoning. "Get it done!" is the motto of the motor centre. "Let's find out!" is another. The motor centre modus operandi is not reasoning, that belongs to the intellect. So delaying and postponing is the intellect. It's not the motor centre. The motor centre is about doing. The more we just do something when we think of it or feel like no matter what the mind reasons (unless a very good physical reason) the more we are embracing the language of the motor centre. Action without thinking. There has to be thinking but thinking aligned with doing, not thinking against doing. The motor is always doing. Not doing something...
