Fantasy is a Huge Business for a Sleeping Humanity - (2101)

Huge Business

What a huge business human being have made out of fantasy.

There are shops and shops, both online and physical, that sell costumes, movies, replicas of objects from movies, props, novels, computer games, swords, axes, armoury, helmets, spears, all sorts of things that have no practical life value at all. But they seel and sell for high prices some of them.

Seeing this, is another sign of how asleep humanity is. To give such high value to things that re useless or to things that only worsen us is a sign that we are really asleep. What use is an axe, a shield, a sword these days, or the sword that Gandalf used in the movie Lord of the Rings? None, if you carry one around you’ll get arrested and even perhaps shot by the police.

These things serve to helps us try and make fantasy real. But it always remains as fantasy, or as times that have long passed, of which we can not bring back. There are people that like to re-enact battles and get all dressed up as knights in armour and fight against others but still it is not real. It gives a use or a kind of a reason or justification to have a collection of swords, armour and shields etc.


Movies – Hollywood Fantasy Factory

Some of the biggest businesses are based on the value that people give to fantasy, The movie business for example. If we all globally worked very hard on fantasy things would be realer, all these actors and actresses would get paid a more real amount and there would be less movies. Movies would be used to educate and teach and entertain but about realities and real possibilities.

This would be good, because it seems for so many people movies are education and are what educate us and set certain trends, fashions and modes of thinking and hoping within us.

In some ways, the movie business is being brought to light showing humanity that many of these actors, actresses, produces and film makers are not virtuous as the characters that appear in their movies. We give too much value to the person who only plays the noble character and not the example that the noble character left behind.

End (2101).

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).
