A Common Sense Procedure for Cleaning Out the Mind

A Common Sense Procedure for Cleaning Out the Mind - (2218)

Taken from the Home

Imagine you decide to clean out one of your messy desk drawers. These would the general steps that you would take right:

1. Lay out the contents of the drawer on a table.
2. Organize the contents into categories, such as: 'keep' and 'don't keep' and 'move somewhere else'.
3. Sift the contents into the three above categories.
4. Bin the 'don't keep' contents.
5. Move the 'move somewhere else' contents to somewhere else.
6. Put the 'keep' contents back into the drawer.

Cleaning out our mind is very similar!

Cleaning out the Mind

A very good way to work on our own mind, cleaning out all the junk that we have accumulated is to follow the same procedure as when we clean out one of our messy drawers.

1. Survey the contents - use observation of the mind in meditation.

2. Organise the contents - discern in meditation what is to be discarded and what can stay.

3. Analyse and comprehend the 'to be discarded' contents so to get the light.

4, Discard with KRIM and the Divine Mother.

Conclusion

See, Organise, Analyse, Discard (SOAD).

Yes, our mind like our house accumulates a lot of junk and just like our house, we must clean our mind out. The cleaner and more organised our house is the easier and better it is to live in it. This is exactly the case for our mind. Though I would spend more time cleaning out my mind then my house. But for sure I would not live in a mess.

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).
