Learn from Nature – Submittal belongs to an Animal Nature – (1347)

Introduction

Watching some nature documentaries is very good at times. Because it shows the behaviour present in the plant and animal kingdoms and it allows us to reflect and verify that actually human beings and animals, when it comes to their behaviour, they have much in common.

This makes sense because human beings are an animal with intellect. The essence that a human being has is the same that an animal has and the only difference is that animals have two brains while we have three brains, the difference being the intellectual centre and the facility of speech. Also because the ego in us is actually of an animal nature.


Submittal

I always thought that being submissive was good and that it was a way of avoiding pride or counteracting pride. However watching many nature documentaries I began to reflect and think that submittal is very animal like. All the animals do it all over the world.



Can be Eliminated

We actually can eliminate submittal from our life. It is not really a correct relation with the Being that we have within us. We can in the physical world take a second position or a less active position and respect others who are above us, but to take the identity of submittal and the role of submittal is animal like. Behind it is fear, which is very animal like. The animal kingdom works all based on fear and aggression.

Pride and fear use the submissive attitude when we are concerned that we are going to be displaced or removed. This is really a lack of self-respect or a lack of respect for the Being inside of ourselves. When we submit ourselves as per assuming the role of submittal we are lowering our dignity and we are abandoning our Being. The best is to remember our inner Being and respectfully remain passive or quiet allowing those whose proper place it is to take the lead.


Conclusion

Not submitting does not mean to surpass, overrule, usurp or take over. It means to remain as we are respecting higher authorities yet not feeling scared or lower.

We can eliminate submittal using respect, awareness and a love and appreciation for the divine presence dwelling within ourselves.

End (1347).

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).
