Putting Out Negative Fires – (1675)

Introduction

The egos make use of the elements within us. This is because our constitution is made up of the elements. Some egos use one element more than others.

If we know how to manage the elements we can actually help ourselves in the dissolution of the egos that predominantly use these elements.


Egos that Use Fire

The egos that use the fire element are egos such as: anger, lust, irritation, annoyance, intolerance etc.

When such egos are very active in us, the element of fire is burning intensely. But of course in a negative way.


Put Out the Negative Fire

If we know a bit about how the element of fire works, we can use that knowledge to put out that burning fire that is polarised negatively.

Reduce Air Supply

If we starve fire of air it dies down and goes out. As air in us is our thoughts, the less we think the less we feed the fire and the sooner it dies down and goes out.

Add Water

We know that fire goes out when we add water. Water in us is adaptability, calm, life giving nourishment, love, emotion, flow etc.

So if we flow on in life, bring to ourselves the emotions of benevolence, kindness to others and ourselves, flow to where there are calm circumstances, people and spiritual nourishment we can reduce that burning fire. Even go to a river or the ocean to clean and clear the solar plexus and bring the fresh cooling qualities of the ocean and river into you. You can swim or just sit by the water and meditate on the water.


Enclose in Earth

We know also that if we put fire into a clay oven or a confined space we can control it much better. Earth in us is routine, discipline, action, firmness, steadiness etc.

If we submit ourselves to our routine, to an activity, to exercise, to work on something we can help curtail the burning fire in us. The more we persist with the work, routine or activity we will see how the burning fire begins to come under control.


Conclusion

Every negative burning fire in us is finite. It will always burn out by itself. This is definitely for sure. The above very simple techniques will help along this putting out of the negative fire.

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).
