Fire – Esoteric Education 1

Fire – Esoteric Education 1 – (1649)

Introduction

Esoteric Education

I want to use this post to prepare for a talk I am going to give in a retreat coming up this Easter.

The theme of the retreat is Esoteric Education.

Reference Points and Balance

I feel that with regards to esoteric education there are two important points. These two points being the use of the correct reference points and balance.

With the correct esoteric reference points, we can orient ourselves correctly and make the right decisions in our path and esoteric work. Our life is the result of our decisions.

By coming to balance we come to learn the complete lesson about the area of life and or esotericism that we are concerned with. Balance is the intelligent synthesis of both sides and the two sides are the completion of the subject, there is nothing more than two sides.

Truth is Never Far from Nature – Fire and Water

Master Samael said that truth is never far from nature. So I am going to take nature as a reference point to approach some themes of the general topic: esoteric education and culture.

The elements of nature that I am going to use are fire and water.

Why fire and water? Because these are two very primordial elements that are at the heart of our constitution and the work with them is a large part of the path.

If we are like fire in our conduct, and work according to an intelligent balance we are going to do well. Because the nature of fire is of the spirit. Our essence and our Being are closer to fire. It is the nobler element of the four. Because it is in constant contact with the higher principles that reign more predominantly in the superior worlds than in the physical.

In summary, the whole message behind this talk is to become like fire or to at least use now and then fire as a reference point.

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).
