If not Everyone Likes Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed... How then can we Expect to be Liked by Everyone?

If not Everyone Likes Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed... How then can we Expect to be Liked by Everyone? - (1801)

Introduction

You know the ego of self-love at times can't understand why people don't like us. It has difficulty understanding this when it comes to new people that we meet, when comes to people that we have known for a while and when it comes to one particular person.

A Reality

If we look at the way people feel towards: Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed and some of the other great prophets, we will discover that there are those that love them, there are those that like them, there are those that are neutral towards them (perhaps don't even think about them) and then there are those that don't like or even hate them.

These men were really terrific, they showed through their actions that they really loved humanity, and in spite of this there are people who are indifferent to them and even don't like them.

This is a huge reality, so then if these terrific men are loved by some, regarded impartially by some and disliked by some, then we can't expect to be liked or loved by everyone can we? Especially when we have not loved as they have.

This is a hard truth for the ego of self-love to face, but it is a reality slapping us right in the face: we can't be liked and loved by others and as always with reality, the best thing that we can do by reality is to accept it and even love it.

Maybe Not Everyone Loved Them But Most Likely they Loved Everyone

That is the thing that we have to latch onto here. Not everyone will like us, but we can certainly like and love them, that can come true, but not the other way around. This is the truer side of relatively and duality that we must place ourselves in. The opposite side is against reality and being at odds with reality always brings upset, offence, suffering, sleepless nights, loss of appetite, restlessness and heart ache.

End (1801).

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).
