Limbo and Speleologists - (2257)

Stuck in Limbo

The word ‘limbo’ in common usage means ‘to be in between’ or ‘stuck’, and it usually implies having to wait.

Esoterically this is true, though there is much more to it than that. This post attempts to present what Gnosis reveals about Limbo and why it may be relevant to us.

A Region

Limbo is a real physical location as well as an internal dimension. Which sounds strange doesn’t it, how could Limbo be both a physical region and an internal dimension at the same time? Well read on…

Both Dante and Master Samael locate Limbo in the first Dantean circle or the first infra-dimension of the planet Earth. 

What we mean by infra-dimension is that within the planet Earth there are particular layers to the inferior side of its psychology. Yes that’s right I just said that the planet has a psychology. The planet Earth also has it superior dimensions which are the various layers to the superior side of its psychology.

I say psychology because what Dante and Master Samael describe in relation to the Dantean circles or infra-dimensions are really that each circle or dimension has a particular psychological characteristic, which is the opposite in nature of what each heavenly sphere has as a psychological characteristic.

It is just the same as us, that within the deep levels of our mind dwell the very negative and dark sides of our psychology which produce very low states of consciousness, and within our superior dimensions we have the positive degrees of our psychology which are and also support higher and freer states of consciousness.


In Limbo

Master Samael describes limbo as the region (same as Dante Alighieri) that is the very first or outer most region of the planet Earth’s abyss. 

Master Samael describes it as the region that accommodates very virtuous, honest, kind and noble souls. He also describes it as a region where there is not too much suffering. There are only sighs rather than cries, great lament and the gnashing of teeth. They sigh Master Samael says because they live in constant desire with no hope. Maybe their desire is for the spirit? He did not specify.

He said those souls that are there did not sin and had even “acquired many merits and virtues, beauty and innocence”. 

He said though that they are there because they did not work in the Arcanum A.Z.F or in other words the Alchemy or sexual magic (supra-sexuality).

Master Samael says that the work with the spermatic waters of life is what is needed to enter the superior regions (heavens) of the Earth. There are many virtuous people in Limbo, though because they have not created the solar bodies before they have to remain there after their physical death.

This is the place where our loved ones (the ones not working Gnostically) will most likely go to when they die. It does not sound to be such a bad place. Certainly in relativity, much better than the Dantean circles that lie below.


Caves and Speleologists

Master Samael said that all the caves in the world make up a network and this network makes up limbo or the first region of the Earth’s infra-dimensions.

Speleologists are those that study, explore and specialize in the knowledge about caves. Some very spectacular caves have been discovered and studied fully, yet there are so many that are a mystery because they extend for so long and it is not known still how long they actually extend for.

There are even many underground caves that are filled with water and they are even more mysterious. All these caves have a reason to exist, just as do the rivers, mountains, lakes etc. all have their special reason for being part of the planet's anatomy.

Even though they are always in a cave the speleologists may not see the deceased souls living there. They may though if they are sensitive enough be able to perceive the general atmosphere of the cave which will link into the feeling and atmosphere of Limbo or of the first region of the Earth's abyss or infra-dimensions.

Perhaps if the speleologist were to drift off to sleep he or she may notice something different in the air and catch a glimpse internally of some of those souls in Limbo.

This is the only region that overlaps with a physical region. According to Master Samael there are caves in which one can walk for days, they even link continents, passing underneath the great oceans. 

End (2257).

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).
