Don’t Know Who We Are and What We Want! - (2171)

Lost our Identity

We often don’t know who we are and what we want all because the ego has taken our true identity. So much so that we don’t even know that we have an identity.

Every Time we Identify with the Ego we Lose Our Identity

To be identified is to have assumed the identity of a given ego. In the normal person this happens so often, that is, losing the identity of their at peace and happy essence to the desiring, turbulent, worrisome identity of the ego.

Because this happens so often there begins to come a time where one forgets their essence and tries to find their identity in their most constant egos, that is their strongest egos.

If pride is their strongest ego which is quite common, one builds an identity where one thinks of oneself as good, always right, strong and stronger, more experienced and intrinsically superior and better.

We can even develop a way of thinking that we are something and others are nothing. The truth is though in consciousness we are awareness and neither something nor nothing. We are not something nor are we nothing, we are awareness.


We Don’t Know What we Want

Because there are some many egos with contradicting desires we don’t know what we want because we identify with so many egos that all have their different desires, wants and commitments.

The Identity One Gets with Time

Aa people age they find a kind of an identity for themselves, but it is not our real identity.

Over time people come to know what they like, what they value, what is important to them, what is right for them etc. Some of that knowledge does indeed come from their essence but not all of it does.
Some of it comes from the egos that they have and their personality. It is in effect a mixture. People end up with a mixture of values, and knowledge which forms their identity, which in all effect which is really a false identity.

The real in depth, that is, nothing beyond, is the identity of our inner Real Being.

Conclusion

The less we identify with the ego the closer and closer we come to knowing and understanding that our identity is not he identity or flavour of any ego but awareness and beyond that is Atman and beyond that is Kether and beyond that is Adhi Buddha and Master Samael says that there are even several identities in the Absolute beyond Adhi Buddha within the Absolute.

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).
