Guardian of the Threshold – (1796)

Introduction

We know from Master Samael that a person’s path begins with the test of the Guardian of the Threshold.

Part of the Being

Believe it or not the Guardian of the Threshold that we face in this test is a part of our Being. Master Samael says that it is a representation of ourselves summing up all of our interior ugliness.

Encounter With Ourselves

It is an encounter with ourselves, with the ugly side of ourselves and the ugly side of our inner Being. But don’t worry the path is going to transform it.

It is a test to see if we can face ourselves, accept the ugly side of ourselves and defeat ourselves. To see if we face our own creations, and stand up to the hypnotic power that one has wrongly over the years given their egos through the wrong us of the sexual energy.

Triple Aspect

Furthermore, the Guardian of the Threshold unfolds into three. It has its triple aspects. They are the astral, mental and causal aspects. The causal is the most difficult. The mental and causal guardians are faced much later in the path at a big distance from the first guardian of the astral. This is because these two aspects of the guardian: mental and causal are more profound and more powerful as they are at the source or closer to the origin of our interior errors and ugliness etc.


Those that Pass

Those that pass can proceed to the next stage. Sometimes one may not know that one has passed. If one has been in Gnosis a long time and is really loving it and is working enthusiastically on him or herself and is getting results. One can be sure that one has passed that test somewhere along the way.
Naturally those that pass have the capacity to face themselves and see to the root cause of their difficulties in their thoughts and emotions and do not evade their responsibility for their difficulties. Those that pass open a door way into themselves where they can seek the cause of the many things that happen I their life and the many thoughts and emotions within themselves.


Those that Fail

Those that fail, I have been told have another chance. Maybe up to two more chances I have heard (maybe true or not). Those that fail must work more intensely in self-observation, self-deception, work on being more honest with themselves, stop blaming others and look for the truth behind all of their problems, difficulties and sufferings. Also, one must transmute their sexual energies. Losing their sexual energy one has no chance.

If one has not passed one day one starts to dislike the work on themselves and becomes an enemy of Gnosis. All the enemies of Gnosis are usually those who failed in the work. They for some reason failed, found it too hard and so they seek like a consolation in debasing and making out Gnosis is a false because then if it is false they have not failed. Unfortunately, they do not realise that this behaviour brings misfortune onto them because in the process they could mislead many sincere souls who could have otherwise found the light.

End (1796).

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).
