Mediocre Pride Lurks Behind Cheap Annoyance – (1456)

Air of Superiority

An air of superiority is present. The proof of this is that when we are in the same situation we do the same we slurp, burp, sneeze etc. So there is a lack of awareness here. Like a belief that it is ok for us to do it but not for others to do it. Why is that? Is there any real, valid grounds upon which we can say that it is ok for us but not ok for others? That is difficult to find right?

It is only our pride that thinks that it is ok for us but not ok for others. If we go outside of our pride we will see that we are the same and there is no real reason for us to feel different. When we realise that we realise that they have an equal right to slurp, sneeze, make noises, speak loudly, sleep, eat, drink etc. then the cause for our annoyance is understood to not have any foundation and so our annoyance diminishes.


How Can They Know?

Another cause for annoyance is that because the other person doesn’t know about what annoys us. The good question to ask is can they know and why are they really meant to know? It is as if we consider them to be inconsiderate (we are the ones who are inconsiderate), just because they don’t follow protocol or manners or etiquette or that they disregard the small details of life (personality).

It that case we are going to be annoyed with the people who are awaken because they are free from many of these protocols, manners and accepted ways of the personality.

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).
