Sentimentalism does not Exist in Nature - (1245)

In Nature

Watching some nature documentaries by David Attenborough an observer can notice that sentimentality does not exist in nature amongst the animals, plants and even the elements. What rather exists is survival of the fittest.

A big black ugly python finds the den of a mother leopard and strangles and swallows her cute, defenceless cub while she is away hunting for food. A victorious male lion prancing through his new pride rushes at the young male cubs, who approach him with enthusiasm as if to play, and for that they receive death by a crushing and unrelenting bite to the neck.

Then you see buffalo gathering together to fend off attacking lions.

Don't think this lion was being nice, it followed through with its killer instincts. 

Then you see a mother elephant rescuing her young calf from the mud while the others in the herd help and standby lending their support. Is this sentimentalism?

Up you go baby jumbo!

In Human Life

Does sentimentalism exist among humans? Of course it does, but does it exist only because it is a creation of the human mind or does it exist in life, on the earth all by itself?

I honestly think that because sentimentalism is subjective it does not have a true absolute existence by itself. It has a relative one. That is, it depends upon the mind to exist, but not just any mind, a mind trapped within relativity and duality.


What Then Really Exists?

Love, but conscious love! The real compassion exists also, such as the compassion in the compassionate heart of the Buddhas and their bodhisattvas. The compassion of Avalokiteshvara, Guanyin etc.

Avalokiteshvara with a 'thousand' arms to help.

What is Conscious Love?

I don’t know! I can’t write anything about it, except that it is discovered in the moment, processed in the moment and yields the intended result.

End (1245).

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).
