Indulging Any Ego Causes a 'Crash'

Indulging Any Ego Causes a 'Crash' – (1567)

A ‘Crash’

If a person indulges an ego for too long a kind of a natural crash happens.

This is because every process has a natural limit and every process brings a result. With the result being either constructive or destructive.

Indulged for Too Long

If the ego is indulged for a long time then comes the limit of the negative consequences on our system. Our system can no longer stand this ego being indulged and so a ‘crash’ as we can call it happens.

A crash is where we may feel very fragile emotionally and intellectually, where we may even feel sick or unwell and where we may stop our work because we simply are not capable of fighting as we normally do. It seems that we can only work on recovering our normal state.

If a 'crash' is experienced connect to nature to gather strength and vitality and speed up your recovery.
There is a certain magic in nature that can heal and revitalise.
Nature can be your garden or local park.

This crash resets our system, throws the indulgent ego out of system and gives our body and psychology time to recover.

Be Smart Use the Experience of the ‘Crash’ to Strengthen the Resolve

When the body and our psychology are back to normal, this ego returns, and if one is smart one can use the experience of the crash to strengthen one’s resolve to not identify with this ego anymore or at the very least do one’s best to not feed it.

A wise person prevents a crash way before it can happen by not feeding any ego!

End (1567).

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).
