What Are Our Karmic Responsibilities? – (1444)

Introduction

Here is a summary of the things my marvellous missionary has said about karmic responsibility and karmic reparation.


Direct Harm

Certainly I think that everyone who knows about karma will understand that we are responsible for the harm that we cause others and ourselves, and so it will be us that will receive the balancing effect which will be to receive what we have given out.


Indirect Harm

What about the circumstances that our actions unfold? Are we responsible for them as well. For example, say we unfairly berate someone that we know is very sensitive and they leave in a very fragile state and they end up having a car accident. Because of the car accident that person can take his sick to her hospital appointments and that means that the other brother has to, and the other brother only has one car and the wife of the brother ends up getting late to work and she is late for an important meeting with a new prospective client and that causes all manner of worries and difficulties for her company because the meeting did not go to well.

Are we responsible for these other side effect circumstances? The answer is yes to some degree. If we are responsible, we have to pay something.

We are also karmically responsible for what we say and write as well. We can’t have the attitude that it all depends on how others take it. It does of course to some degree but it is important to bear in mind that we have some responsibility there as well, especially for having spoken or written something it in the first place.

If we tell somebody to do something and then we forget about what we advised them or we don’t want to know anything about it when they come to tell us about what they did, we are avoiding our karmic responsibilities as well.


Reparation

We sometimes think that reparation is to receive what we have been given or to just repay the damage if there is physical damage. But it could be depending on the case much more.

For example, if we crashed into someone’s fence and damaged. Reparation is not just to give them the money to cover the cost of repairing it but to repair it and to repair the psychological shock or difficulty it could have caused in them as well. Plus cover any inconvenience that having a damaged fence could have caused. Sometimes people give extra money and that is getting close but perhaps it is not quite as complete.


Conclusion

Our karmic responsibilities are wider than we think at times and this just means that we really have to be much more careful before we speak and do things.

End (1444).

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).
