Giving Things the Right Proportion - (2203)

A Didactic to Wake Up

1.) Know that you are nothing that you have inside of yourself.

2.) Separate your attention from the subconscious.
3.) Focus your consciousness.
4.) Give everything the right proportion.
5.) Connect our consciousness to reality.
This post is about step 4.) – giving everything the right proportion.
There is really so much to see in this one step. It has really profound implications.
In fact, you will see that it is the cause of identification, and it is the precise point where we lose ground to the ego.
It is also the key to not identifying with some particular egos such as pride and lust.

What Does it Entail?

  • Taking impressions and events with the right value.
  • Taking impressions and events with the right centre of the human machine.
  • Assigning the right approach to deal with the impression and event.
  • Giving the right amount of attention to impressions and events.
  • Giving the right amount of energy to impressions and events.
  • Giving the right amount of time to impressions and events.
  • Giving the right amount of our word in the aspect of emphasis, content, vocabulary and tone.
  • The right feeling in dealing with impressions and events.
  • The right amount of effort in dealing with problems, issues, impressions and events.

Examples of what is not the Right Proportion

  • Getting identified. By definition to get identified is to give something space and time within us more than what is due or appropriate.
  • Spending hours to fix something for so little benefit.
  • Being a people pleaser.
  • Exaggerated words.
  • Taking criticism emotionally.
  • Getting angry.
  • Thinking and thinking when there is no solution.
  • Remembering the past.
  • Karmic relationships with people have as a recurrent characteristic: the wrong proportion in the majority of aspects in the relationship.
  • Giving a sensation importance.
  • Giving our dignity so much importance. Pride is about the wrong proportion. I am so much greater than you.
  • Lust is about the wrong proportion. We give fleeting beauty so much importance that what is due.
  • We expect the wrong proportion (that is over proportion) to be given to us in our favour.
  • Grovelling and being scared is to give things the wrong proportion.
  • Giving our pain so much that it stops our life.
  • Giving ourselves the wrong greater proportion when we do not co-operate with the environment. When we stand separate and do not integrate we are giving ourselves the wrong proportion of things. We are thinking we are more and better and that event is for those of a lesser quality etc.

Conclusion

All of the above examples are corrected or given the right proportion when we give things the right proportion first of all within ourselves.
Forgetting the Being, is giving things the wrong proportion. We in effect give something else the wrong proportion, that is more time, energy, attention than what is due to it.
In essence giving things the right proportion is about knowing objectively or in the light of the Being what is of higher value and then giving that the due importance.
End (2203).

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).
