Interpretations of the Sensations!

Interpretations of the Sensations! - (1180)

Sensations are not the Problem the Interpretations are!

We are hooked by our own interpretations not the pleasure or displeasure of our own senses or sensations!

When our physical eyes see an attractive person of the opposite sex, our vision sense may be pleased yet that is no problem. What the problem is, is the interpretation of those sensations and not the sensations themselves.

The interpretation that we give to the senses is what we really like or dislike!

We for example see an attractive person and we interpret the pleased feeling of the senses as “that person would be good to know, to show to others, my reputation will increase, my feeling of self-worth would increase, other people will be envious, I would be happy etc. etc.”. All those feelings bring pleasure to us and we fall into identification etc. etc.

What we have done with our mind is attached meanings to sensations. Sexual sensation, sensations from the senses have all been given an interpretation by our mind and then those thoughts generated by the mind produce an emotion and that emotions is what gets us hooked.

Work Lust – work the Interpretations

If we want to work on lust we have to at some point hit the interpretations and question them.

Interpretations are subjective, everyone can interpret their sensations in different ways and those whole lot of interpretations constitute the ego of lust. So hitting each one of the interpretations over time dissolves lust and the other egos that rely on the senses.

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).
