Inner Control Over Outer Control

Inner Control Over Outer Control – (1874)

Control

There is the typical control exerted by the ego where the controlling person will move people and circumstances out of fear. So that what they fear does not happen. What they fear could be a relatively minor thing or a relatively major thing such as a large argument with far reaching consequences.

Many times the controlling person by being quick and forceful gets what they want. That is, they get what their egos want.

However, control does exist. It exists outside and inside. As always the inner control is better, miles better. The person who is controlling outside, like a controlling person by the law of duality lacks inner control. That is he/she lacks control over him or herself when it comes to dealing with their own thoughts and emotions.

The best control to have is the one over our thoughts and emotions. Because if we have this inner control or dominion when the difficult circumstances arise and the egos within us project their painful and hurtful thoughts and feelings we can control them and deal with them. The outwardly controlling person can not deal with them and he/she knows it and so resorts to controlling people, events and circumstances.

Remedy for the Controlling Person – Develop Inner Control

The remedy to being a controlling person is to develop the inner control. That is to practice the psychology of the periphery, which means to keep all the painful thoughts to the outer areas of our psychology and be anchored in the central part of our psychology which is the essence. The essence will always take the central position when we practice correctly the psychology of the periphery.

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).
