Conversations about the Workings of Karma

Conversations about the Workings of Karma - (2260)

Introduction

Here are some notes of a conversation I had with my marvelous missionary the other day, sitting out the front of the house waiting for students to arrive to begin the class.

There with a slight breeze blowing, a few magpies and a willy wag tail swooping down to pick up a morsel or two of mainly small pieces of bread left out for them, with the sun slowly saluting the end of a day painting the sky soft orange-blue.

There, the mood is now set. Now for the conversation.

Point 1:

As people are asleep and don't know much about the way the Law applies karma, what happens to them seems so apparently unjust.

If they knew that a superior law washes away an inferior law, and they asked for this principle to be applied in their case, well, it would be applied in their case. If only they knew!

If we know them we can ask that this principle be applied for them. We can be their advocate.

Because they do not know and do not ask for this principle to be applied, the Law just applies the Law in such a way that it appears unfair.

Gnostics have to appeal to this principle. Why is it that so many Gnostics find Gnosis and they have intense yearnings yet little or limited possibility of fulfilling those yearnings? It seems so tough of the law to do that. They must ask for this law to be applied to them in their case.

Point 2:

With our dharma or merits we buy and pay for things.

If we have enough merits we can move past a karmic impediment. If we do not have enough merits we may be given a loan or a credit, but on the condition that we can pay for it, that is pay it back.

If we are deemed not able to pay this credit back we are then in trouble. We must suffer and pay with pain. There is no other way.

When the Law applies karma it looks to the essence and the Monad, not to the person, nor the man nor the lady. They decide what is best for the essence, which may not be the best for the man or lady.

Sometimes when we can not pay they decide to retract our physical body from life, so that we can have a new body with new circumstances where we will be fitter and more able to pay. That seems so tough and cruel to us humans living here in this world but it is the love and compassion of the Law working in favour of the Monad and the essence of the person.

Conclusion

Merits once again is what we need! Once again we acquire merits by working on ourselves. The harder we work the more merits we earn!

End (2260).

Kundry from Parsifal Unveiled - (3948)

The character Kundry is very unusual, and has a mysterious role in Wagner's opera: Parsifal. As master Samael explains, Kundry represents the archetype of the feminine. That mysterious yet extraordinarily powerful force that can raise a man to the heights of realisation or sink him into the abyss of failure. Kundry in the opera takes on a few different opposing roles, one where she is the temptress that seduced the king of the Holy Grail: King Amfortas giving Klingsor the opportunity to steal the Lance of Longinus and wound his side. She then helps the wounded king searching for balms to heal the wound in his side, then she is again the temptress that tries to seduce Parsifal the young knight who tries to redeem the lost lance. When Parsifal is victorious destroying the castle of Klingsor Kundry changes roles to become a servant of the holy grail and the knights of the order of the holy grail. These are all aspects of the powerful feminine force that is varied and has many differe...

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...
