A Base in Our Being - (2223)

No Base = Pain

When there is loss in our life, having our bases or our major investments in our own Being or at least in something that will never leave us such as our essence, our work, our own consciousness we can avoid so much emotional pain.
The key is how to do that.
Well it is done over time and certainly it takes time and is achieved by degrees. Where do we start? 
Well here is a way.

Self-Remembering

Self-remembering or better said remembering the Being is the start.

Remembering our own Being is more than being in the moment or being alert. It is to find ourselves in our own Being. The depth of this increases as one awakens more and progresses on the initiatic path.
First we must understand that we are an essence and that our essence comes from a Spirit or a Divine Being, a Monad, a spark of the great flame, which is God.

When we practice self-remembering we can make our mind quiet to see ourselves as awareness, that is us - the still awareness, the awareness that witnesses the thoughts.

To feel the energy in that awareness, to feel that that awareness is what gives us life, it is what animates our body. It is the source of our body’s warmth and vitality.

If we then focus on that awareness and with prayer direct our attention and our thoughts and feelings to it and through it up to its origin (our Being) and make with our will and heart the effort to join with, be with, to find peace with, find security with, find support from, find wisdom from, find strength from, find purpose and identity from. Then the more we do it the more it will start to gel and come to us.

Base Begins to Be Created

We create a base in our Being when we understand with our consciousness or understand deeply that we are not just a person with a family, job, position, money maker etc., but that we are an essence and our happiness, security, peace, strength, force, vitality, purpose, identity comes from our own essence.
Then if a loss appears in our life, the pain that always comes from any kind of loss will not be so bad, or at least manageable. The stronger and deeper our base is in our work, consciousness and Being the less the pains of loss will affect us.

We can prepare for losses which are so inevitable in life right now by doing such a practice. Repeat it and repeat it until it sinks in!

End (2223).

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).
