Gnosis Wisdom

Hope We have to make the magic of mantras work for us. The previous series of posts I hope will help with this. The power of sound is real and demonstrable and it can work for you. I would like to end this series of posts with an excerpt from Master Samael about mantras. The Power of the Universe is Sound! “MANTRAMS Phonetic combination made with wisdom produces the MANTRAMS. Therefore, a MANTRAM is a wise combination of letters whose sounds determine spiritual, psychic, and also physical effects. Before all the languages of the Tower of Babel were revealed, only one language, a language of gold, a universal idiom existed. That language has its perfect Cosmic Grammar. The letters of that golden language are written in entire Nature. Whoever has studied the Nordic runes, and the Hebrew, Chinese, and Tibetan characters, will be able to perceive by intuition, that “Cosmic Language” with its enigmatic letters.” V....

Sounds is Real and Always Produces an Effect Every mantra works and a result is created even if we believe in it or not. This is because sound always creates, it always has some effect, because it is a real thing, it is something that has a manifestation in all the dimensions without and within us. The Logos made creation possible through the use of sound and the word. All that is alive sounds or vibrates. Sound and therefore the word create and have the power to determine circumstances and alter the outcome of existing present circumstances. Excerpt “SEXUAL - LARYNX RELATIONSHIP There is a very intimate relationship between the sexual glands and the Creative Larynx. When the boy reaches the age of 14 years, his voice is transformed into the voice of a man. Said transformation is due to the sexual glands that enter into activity. Therefore, that intimate relationship between the sexual glands and the Creative L...

Takes Time It really takes time for the mantra to set up its resonance effect in our physical and psychological and even esoteric system. We must, we have to repeat the vocalisation of the mantra. It certainly does take some time for the mantra to make its effect perceptible in our system. The mantra needs to override any other sounds and tones of vibration in our system and harmonise them all into the magical effect of itself. This takes time especially when we have many vibrations going on inside of ourselves due to the activities for the centres and the egos jumping around here and there in our mind and emotion. Conclusion It is unrealistic to expect an instant result given our conditions. Realistically mantras must be chanted respectively. How many times we can not say, it varies for the individual. I would repeat the mantra until a change in my vibration is felt at the very least. End (1554).

Obvious This one is obvious right? Principle Behind The principle behind concentration in relation to the use of mantras is that for the mantra to take form effectively our intention and purpose must be constantly flowing through and the power of the mantra must be focussed on something. Just imagine if you are chanting the mantra KRIM to dissolve a certain ego and you are not wanting to dissolve it really and you are not even focussing ton that ego where is all that force of the mantra KRIM going to go? Nowhere right? So concentration is needed to focus our so that it can flow through the mantra and be directed to the right place. The mantra and the word create a certain geometry and this geometry can not be created if there is no focus and no intention. Sand Patterns (Geometry) produced by sound travelling through a board of sand. Excerpt “GEOMETRY OF THE WORD The word produces objective g...

Reasons Behind The reason behind this step is two-fold. First The first reason is that it forms the basis for a solid concentration. Second The second reason is that it harmonises our total system. When we are balanced or harmonised it is more likely that we are going to vibrate more singularly, that is producing just one tone and not a mixture of similar and distant tones. This is important because what we want the mantra to do is to make our key note vibration to become the same as the vibration of the mantra. Or at least modify our key note vibration to produce a certain effect. For this to happen it is so much easier if we are vibrating with one tone only. If we are many tones there is more work for the mantra to do and of course the longer it will take. Just by experience, when we have our centres or brains in a state of disagreement chanting any mantra is nearly always fruitless. Conclusio...

Introduction This is another important principle to know when wishing to make the chanting of mantras more effective. Because when we chant a mantra we want the vibration of the mantra to permeate our whole mind and body and vibrate in the same way as the mantra. In short, chanting mantras is about working with the principle of vibratory affinity. Down came the walls of Jericho by the power of sound! Excerpt “VIBRATORY AFFINITY If a musician playing an instrument, was to hit the Keynote of a man, and prolonged that note to the maximum, that man would die instantly. All the cells of the human organism are sustained by Sound, by the Verb. The atoms of the entire organism live in incessant motion. All that is in motion makes a sound, and the Logos makes sounds. The Synthetic Note of every atomic movement of the human organism, could by a Law of Vibratory Affinity, instantly kill the human being. It is said that ...

Introduction This is an important fact to take into account when chanting mantras and it is the reason behind why we to make the mantra effective align the three brains. The excerpt below from Master Samael explains what the key note is. It turns out that everything has its key note. A river, a mountain, a valley, a plant, an animal, a human being etc. all have their particular key note. Excerpt “THE KEYNOTE And the “SEVEN VOWELS” of Nature: I-E-O-U-A-M-S, resound in the entire Creation! Each flower, each mountain, each river, has its own peculiar note, its synthetic note. The ensemble of all the sounds produced l the Planetary Globe produces a SYNTHETIC NOTE in the immense core of the infinite space. Each World has its KEYNOTE. The ensemble of all the Keynotes of the Infinite, form the ineffable orchestration of the starry spaces; this is the Music of the Spheres of which Pythagoras spoke to us about.” Samael ...

For tomorrow a series of posts back to the subject of the esoteric science behind making the chanting of mantras effective. End (1549).

Shadow Passes, Light Remains This is the reason why waiting as a technique to combat the ego (certain egoic storms) is valid. (translation of Latin phrase: “Transit Umbra, Lux Permanet” is “Shadow Passes, Light Remains). End (1548).

When the Question is the Ego When it is the ego waiting does marvels! The ego can make us think that something is so important and irresistible. But if we just wait for that storm to pass we see that everything changes. What seemed so impossible now seems possible and what seemed so important and irresistible now seems unimportant and matter of fact. Know When to Wait Intelligently We have to know when to intelligently wait and when we shouldn’t wait. When we wait intelligently we know that we will feel very differently soon and so this bit of knowledge helps us to remain calm and to not get so identified with the storm. You can put the thoughts and feelings aside and then because you know that their importance and irresistibility is just an illusion, in a few days’ time it will be different. Golden Rule The golden rule is when it is the ego that is involved wait! When it is the work involved don’t wait – work. If it is a mixture of both, that is, it i...

From practical experience it is better to operate this way I have found. That is demand more work from yourself and of better quality rather than constantly telling yourself I should be doing this or that, or working that many times and be achieving this and that etc. One is realer than the other and the one that is realer does not create frustration, disappointment and us suffering. The one that is realer is open while the one that is not realer is always about putting a limit on ourselves, by that I mean an ideal is a restriction, a limit., a roof that you bump your head on and then stop.

To have ill will or a negative attitude towards people is not that good. It is much better to have good will towards people, than ill will. Nothing good comes out of ill will. When you notice that you have a negative attitude towards someone or even ill-will ask yourself: "What good is really going to come out of this?". To have good will towards another person may not improve the situation straight away but at least it balances you inside, and that is some peace. End (1541).

Logos “The Logos sounds” Master Samael says. In Greek the word ‘logos’ means ‘word’ or ‘plan’. Logos also come to mean the “word of God” and it is also known in other contexts as the principle of divine reason and creative order. All of the above meanings are significant and relate to one another. They are all aspects of the one and same thing: universal sound. The Logos was the one that created Master Samael said. This is because the word creates and as the Logos is the word, it was the Logos that created. For there to be any kind of creation there must first of all be the reason to create. So the Logos had a reason, a purpose and an intention to create. Mantras are there to Create When we chant a mantra we wish to create something. So, in that moment we are acting like a mini Logos. Just as the Logos infused Its intention to create through sound and its intelligence through the word we have to do the same. If there was no intention or cause or re...

Introduction – Five Steps Here are five steps that one can follow to make the use of chanting any mantra to be effective. In this post I have listed the step and in subsequent posts I have explained the science (principles) or reasoning behind each step. The Five Steps 1. Purpose and Intention Have a clear reason for chanting the mantra. 2. Align the Three Brains Align your three brains in chanting the mantra. 3. Concentration Concentrate profoundly on the mantra. 4. Repetition and Duration Chant the mantra repeatedly giving it time to work. Very few mantras work immediately. 5. Repose and Perceive Result After chanting the mantra remain quiet for a while perceiving the effect. End (1542).

If Something Annoys You… If something annoys you, go and do exactly what it is that annoys you. Do the Same… If someone is annoying you by doing something, go and put yourself in that same situation and do exactly the same thing that they are doing and which happens to annoy you. Interesting Discovery Then you will see how logical and normal it is for them to being the way they are and for them to be doing what it is that they are doing (which happens to annoy us). As soon as we do this we will then see that it is not a personal action against us but rather something that makes sense for them to be doing, it is logical even, given their personality, their background, their body, the situation, their psychology etc. We Are Wrong Then we can really see that we are in the wrong when we get annoyed. The problem is really ours. We Can Work it As soon as we see and understand that we are in the wrong we can work on annoyance and deal it a mortal blow. T...

Special Number Just as our individual Real Being has a number, where that number from the previous post, is that each Being has a certain number of autonomous and self-conscious parts that need perfecting and once that work has been done the inner universe of that Being has been realised. As Above so Below As the Real Being of each human being has a special number, the Absolute must also have its number. This means that a special number of Beings or Monads must achieve their self-realisation before the Absolute can close creation or manifestation. As soon as that number is fulfilled the doors to creation can be closed. A Secret and Magical List There somewhere says the experiences and legends of Gnostic people, exists a special secret list in which the names of all the Monads or Beings who are going to achieve their self-realisation is written. We just hope that the name of our Monad is on that list. If not l...

Read from Pistis Sophia Unveiled by Samael Aun Weor Below is an excerpt taken straight out of the “Pistis Sophia Unveiled” a book where Master Samael unveils some very important parts of the Pistis Sophia. It has been said that the Pistis Sophia holds some of the teachings that Jesus imparted to his disciples during the time after his ascension, where it is also said that he was able to be present with his disciples for a period of 11 years before he definitely had to leave them. In many ways the Pistis Sophia represents the esoteric side of Christianity which is very profound. I was told once that the hole in the middle of the Roman Pantheon represents the entry of the Gods into the Absolute. Excerpt “ CHAPTER 50 Jesus commendeth Matthew and promiseth his disciples that they shall sit on thrones with him. And when Jesus had heard these words, he said: “Finely [said], Matthew.  Now, therefore, amen, I say unto you: When the perfect number is completed ...

You think you die! When the instinctive centre is released it can do amazing things! We don’t really know what our instinctive centre can allow us to do, until the moment comes. We don’t know for example, how fast it can make us move. I think this guy does this on purpose but to survive maybe our own instinctive centre could do this. Bear that in mind that if there is a difficult or emergency situation, if your instinctive centre kicks in you may well do better than you think. As long as you don’t think. The instinctive centre will make us more courageous than we what think that we are right now or we think possible for us! End (1537).

We are Tempted to Pursue It works basically from within ourselves. Meaning that it is mostly us that is tempted to pursue what we are tempted with. Meaning we are tempted to go for what tempts us. Not a bad representation of our inner psychological country with all those egos there running amok. Wrong Idea We think that it is something that bears down upon us and forces us to take up the tempting offer. This is most often not the case. There is a very good reason for this. Why the Wrong Idea? The reason for this is that when we are forced other egos in us answer such as fear, pride and anger and the temptation is over, because the ego that was feeling tempted is displaced. The best temptation is when the there is no help from any other factor in us (i.e. no other ego, circumstances, physical obstacles etc.) to interfere with the ego feeling tempted or actually being tempted. The only other factor is our essence...

Main Point My point with this post is to draw upon the four noble truths that the Buddha taught, and reiterate that our suffering always has a cause and that just as it is true that it has a cause there is a way out. This is such good news that there is a cause and there is a way out and both of these two things are a truth! Thank God! To know this, is so useful because at times we feel our pain or suffering so vague, obtuse and mysterious that we think that it does not have a cause and much less a remedy. But it does! It Does! The following excerpt expands a little more on this. Supporting Excerpt from a Book “Regardless of the many different schools and traditions, the primary aim of Buddhism is the realisation of the Four Noble Truths. ‘Noble’ is used to signify that the realisations and consequent actions based on these truths are refined and profound. The truths are, in essence, two cause and effect relationships: dukkha and its causes, freedo...

Monetary and Non-Monetary – Everything has a Cost Everyone I think knows this that everything costs. The question for us is to know and to determine if this cost is worth it. This is not a financial cost, that is so many dollars or euros, but an intellectual, emotional, motor – physical and spiritual cost. Something that is paid with the capital residing in our essence and three brains. Knowing the Cost Knowing the cost of certain egos manifesting and knowing the cost of feeding certain egos is part of our comprehension of the ego and when we feel and come to the well understood conclusion that this cost is not worth it, we can virtually remove the base from underneath the ego. No Longer Affordable I say this because we still go with the ego when we still think its cost is worth it or that we can still somehow manage or live or cope with its cost. When we no longer can pay or cope with the cost we are ready to definitely say NO! In the beginning with the wor...

Rubbish – Start Now! We are not as an entity in the abyss of nature or the Earth – of course we are not. But in some areas due to the ego being very heavy we live at certain times, especially when we are in that particular area of life, we are in our own abyss and so we connect to the mediocrity of the abyss of the Earth where all other human beings are the same. The Law of Entropy equals all humans beings in the abyss to have the same level of mediocrity and that is what we have to escape from. Get Out Now! There is no time to get out! It has to be now! Don’t think that when a certain situation in your is over or when a new one starts, that that is when you will get out! Rubbish! You won’t! If you don’t get out now you won’t get out later! End (1533).

Holy Negating This is what we are scared of – denying the ego. The Christ in us is the Holy denying. He is the force that says no to the ego! This says many things. The first thing that it says is that if the Christ in us is the Holy Negating, and the Christ is a an autonomous and self-consciousnesses part of our Being it means that He negates or denies the ego consciously. As the Christ is Love in us his negation of the ego must be aligned with his nature of love. This tells us that it must be done with love and not duty. But of course conscious love, not sensual or emotional love. The basis of anything conscious is comprehension. Therefore comprehension and love must be at the base of your efforts to deny the ego. Scared We may feel scared because we think that it is going to be painful or difficult. True sometimes it is. We may also feel scared, because we believe that at some later point we will end up undoing our commitment of denying the ego and therefore f...

Introduction The many laws and orders that we have set in place in life and creation come from where? In Gnosis we would say from the Absolute itself. Why? Because the absolute has reflected itself in creation and so the various laws and orders present are of the Absolute’s own innate principles. See the reflection of God in creation! Do the Laws Change from One Cosmic Day to the Next? Do Laws change from one cosmic day to another. The Laws here now are the Laws of the Absolute. Doesn’t the Absolute reflect itself in creation? As the absolute is the absolute and that is what is eternal, true and perennial, the Absolute won’t change and the as the laws are a reflection of it, the laws do not change from one cosmic day to the next. Palace of the Law The ray of the Law are present to apply and administer the various laws of the Absolute. This may even include setting the creation of new smaller laws to ensure the ...

Values Work The values that we have in our body and in our essence allow us to get up and fight. The values in our essence work on the body and command the body and in time if our body lacks vital values, the values of the essence with constant exertion, bring vital values into the body, making it strong and able to work. The values of the essence can crystallise into many other values i.e. dharma. One such crystallisation of dharma are vital values. Values Rebel The values in our essence are the ones that rebel against the degeneration of the values inside of us. The values work over time and wish to conquer their opposites. The values are like an army, just like our body’s immune system that organise themselves in order to fight infections and viruses. With the work on ourselves the values advance more extensively and rapidly through our system. The values do not ‘divide and conquer’, they conquer and unite. Co-Operate with the Wish of the Valu...

Design of the Body If we look at the human body we see that the sexual centre resides in the middle of the body and the intellect and heart in the superior parts. This tells us everything that we need to know. Upright Order When a human being stands upright it is seen that the head of the human being presides over the rest of his or her nature. The head, the brain receives the forces from above and rules over the forces of below within the nature of the human being. One of the forces of below is the sexual force. The sexual force must be controlled, regulated and directed by the mind and the heart using one’s consciously chosen set of reference points. The reference points of the Gnostic are the path and the Being. We hope so, often we find that they are not in some Gnostic people. This is because we would say that they have not grasped the role of sexuality in the goal of the self-realisation of their Being or the...

No I Don’t! Yes you do! Thank God you do, because if you generate it, you can Remove it! See thank God that we generate the pain that we feel. Because if we generate it we can turn it off, change it for better or worse or turn it on again. Hearing this may come as the worst news ever when we are in pain. But let me tell you something, realising this is the beginning of the way out of pain. No other way works but to keep you stuck in pain! Just as a famous Buddhist teacher and monk says: “The way out is in!”. Please Don’t Forget it! See the thought that you are thinking that is making you feel pain. See that it is a thought that is responsible. No thought no pain. Then see that you are believing deeply in that thought. So begin to question that thought. That pain is good it is bringing you back home to your Being and it is making you awaken. Questioning what you are believing is to know yourself more and it is to introduce light into darkness and to show you tha...
