Annoyance Is? – (1452)

Something Psychological

Annoyance is something psychological in nature, which is very good news, because this means that we can modify our states of annoyance.

The key observation that tells us that annoyance is something psychological is that we for example easily get annoyed with our parents but not so easily annoyed with our work colleagues when they all do the exact same thing.


A Kind of Non-Acceptance

Annoyance is a rejection or non-acceptance of something. We often get annoyed with what we don’t understand (fear) or don’t accept (pride).

For example, when someone starts coughing and doesn’t stop we may get annoyed, this is because of fear, because we don’t know what is going on and our state of not 'having to worry about anything' is being disturbed.

Because of pride we don’t accept certain things and when people want these things or do these things that we don’t accept, we can’t help but get annoyed. Annoyance has behind it a lot of attachment to our way of doing things and the things that we like.


Hypnotic Grip within Annoyance

The strange thing is that we believe that someone for example, eating quickly and loudly somehow inconveniences us or a person who talks a lot is also somehow harming us.

In reality we are not harmed usually at all, but something in our mind, something of a mental pattern is challenged and we to preserve this mental pattern feel a desire within ourselves to say something or do something to the person or thing ‘annoying’ us.

“Our anger and annoyance are more detrimental to us than the things themselves which anger or annoy us.”

In many ways annoyance is the force applied outwardly to preserve the superiority or even existence of our mental patterns.


More to do with the Senses

Annoyance in general tends to have more to do with physical sensory and intellectual issues rather than moral and deep psychological, emotional issues.


Constant Annoyance Indicates a Low Level of Being

People who are annoyed at everything or so easily get annoyed, always seemed to indicate to me a low level of the Being. Many annoyances are really silly and it shows that we lack a lot of control and that we are too full of ourselves, because we are far from being able to surpass ourselves on that superficial level of the senses and the intellect.

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).
