Gnosis Wisdom

End (2397).

This post is just to let you know that I will be in Spain for a Gnostic retreat, and so I most likely will not be posting very regularly, perhaps one or two here and there. I hope to resume my regular posting by June 4th Australian time. End (2396).

Introduction This post comes from the tomes called “Quinto Evangelio” which is the title given to a compilation of transcriptions of Master Samael’s talks and lectures. Humbledzoin the Blood of the Kedsjano (Astral Body) Master Samael says that the internal bodies have flesh and blood, just as does our physical body. He says that the blood of the astral body has a name which is Humbledzoin. He says that the blood of our body is elaborated and strengthened with the food that we eat and the liquids that we drink. He says that the blood of the astral body is also elaborated, and also needs to be strengthened and nourished. However the blood of the astral body, the Humbledzoin is nourished and strengthened by different the substances. These substances that form and also strengthen the Humbledzoin come from the solar system, they are the substances of astrochemistry Master Samael says. He says that enter into us via our breathing and though the pores of our skin, and o...

Spirit It is spirit that animates matter. In other words it is your Being or your Atman which ultimately animates your body. That spirit that animates your body is an endless source of energy. It streams through you giving you life. It is not matter. It is energy that can not get sick, turn sour, get old, atrophy, become corrupt etc. etc. We can trust that that force of life will always be there animating our body and our consciousness. Just look at your hands and feel the warmth, the life streaming out of the palm of your hands. This is that life, that vitality and energy of life streaming though us. That is our gift of life coming to us from somewhere by virtue of some factor, and when it is its time it will leave (death). But right now it is there radiating splendidly. Holds Us Up and Fights to survive That force of life is there always to hold us up. That is its nature, it is natural for it to be like a spring, like a fountain of life giving water, always flowin...

Drifting Around or Here and Now? Are the bodies floating around the Astral, Mental or Causal worlds without a driver, as empty vessels? Or with you right now? Which possibility seems more correct? The answer is that they are with you right now. The proof of this is in the practice of astral projection. When practicing projecting into the astral we leave our physical body with our essence housed in the astral body. It is like the astral body projects or unfolds out of our physical body. In other words our astral body unfolds out of our physical body. Our astral body is not called to us from the Moon, Venus or some other place, for us to transfer our consciousness into, it comes from within our interior. Here and Now The same applies with the mental and causal bodies. However, the point to not forget is that these bodies are within our astral, mental and causal dimensions right here and now. If we have the bodies, the egos are housed in the bodies and so when a pers...

Disclaimer I can not talk about this matter from experience, but what I am going to do here is relay to you via this post the topic of the subconscious when one no longer has the ego. The information in this post comes from my understanding of what m.m.m has been speaking about lately. Subconscious is Empty In a person without ego, the subconscious exists. Though it is empty. The subconscious remains as a possible storage place. Where impressions that are not transformed will enter. The subconscious is like a basement, that is part and parcel of the building. It is the inferior part of the building, and every building has a superior and inferior part. We can’t get rid of the inferior part because then there will be no superior part and then there will be no building. The same applies to our psychology. Difference The difference is that for a person with no ego the subconscious is lit up, it is not dark or black and it is empty, just like the abyss of the su...

The Same Path, The Same Work Just Different Levels My marvellous missionary has been saying some really very interesting things lately. We may think that for the second and third mountains there are very special tools and keys to use. There are very special and advanced works to do but the tools and keys are the same my marvellous missionary says. The key of non-identification, the key of separation – “that we are not anything that we have inside of ourselves” he says is what has helped him more than anything else in the works of the second mountain. Even the key of focusing the consciousness and the key of connecting consciousness to reality were majorly important and continue to be so. Conclusion So, we have all the keys already that we will need for the whole path. Therefore, it is just about applying them. This brings us to make the following conclusion that the path is the same work for all (start, middle end), just that it is done at different levels. ...

People Say Such Things As... When we get identified with, typically, the ego of self-compassion we say the following words: “You Make me Feel Like I am Doing Something Wrong!” or “You Make me Feel Like I am unworthy or am bad!”. Both or any other version of the above words are an error. Even if it feels so real and true (mistakenly), the truth is that it is us that makes us feel that way. Others may say and do things that imply that we are unworthy, useless, unliked etc. but who says we have to feel like that? Only really our sleeping consciousness believes their implications and assumes them to actually be us or to be our true identity. When we assume their implications we are asleep and we have lost our psychological independence and we are far away from self-remembering and hence from our inner Being. The key is always to go back to our Being through the remembering of the Being. When we remember our Being we can chose what we want to feel. The best to feel i...

The Big Cause of Reaction I think the biggest cause of reaction in us is the feeling of less that arises in us during the interactions with others. Hurt jealousy, pride, vanity, self-love etc. are all about the different ways of feeling less. Fear is another way of feeling less, and lust with its feeling of lacking etc. is its way of feeling less as well. This is a very useful observation to make. Once we make it we can progress in getting out of these bothersome feelings. Obviously feeling less hurts and it is precisely this feeling of less that we can not stand within ourselves, and it is because we can not stand feeling ‘less’, that we react in order to not feel less. We go outside of ourselves looking for a way to turn that painful less feeling around into feeling good about ourselves. Seeing things as unfair is the tell-tale mediocre symptom of the feeling less. This is a very true statement. We may dismiss it, though its truth lies precisely with  us m...

We should not really give people around us negative impressions of others. This is because it causes them to create negative attitudes against those whom we speak negatively of. Then if the others that we speak to are not aware these negative attitudes build up and later they are unfortunately controlled by them in their interaction with those that we speak negatively of. When we go to the facts, those who listen to our negativity should awaken a little and remain neutral and not allow themselves to take in any negative impressions without questioning them. We are really asleep when we do not notice a big negative attitude building up in us against somebody. Others though, really they build their own negative attitudes, but when we speak negatively of others we start it off in others and we provide them extra work to do, which is not really fair, specially if it is our mediocre, negative and really stupid ego that is behind those impressions. End (2388).

Matter of the Internal Dimensions So if a human being has a superior existential body of the Being, or in other words a solar body it means firstly that this human being has the ability to take up a presence within that dimension using the matter that is of that dimension. The body of each dimension is made from the matter of that dimension. Just the way the physical body is made from the matter of the physical dimension. Master Samael says that each solar body is a body of flesh and bone but made from the matter of that particular dimension. Density of the Atoms The difference between each solar body has to do with the density of the atoms that make up the body. It is taught that an atom of the physical world contains 48 atoms of the Absolute or the region where there is one law. An astral atom has 24 atoms of the Absolute, and the mental has 12 atoms and the causal has 6 atoms. So straight away, we can see that the internal bodies are much less dense. The caus...

Introduction Here is a short list of some of the reasons why we need the to fabricate the solar bodies as part of the realisation of our inner Being. The first four reasons have been sourced from Master Samael’s books and transcriptions of his lectures, and the last four are from my understanding of things. 1. Creation of the Inner Universe Master Samael says that the Being of anyone has to replicate in miniature what the Absolute has done in the cosmos. That is to enact a cosmic day or a genesis. Creating the bodies is exactly that, it creates our inner universe. It is our inner genesis. The seven bodies are the seven days of Genesis. Creating the inner Universe allows our inner Being to know Itself in all of its parts and dimensions. It also completes It. 2. Psychological Solar System Master Samael says that when the seven bodies have been fabricated we have created the psychological solar system. However if one falls the psychological solar system h...

Manasic Substance The answer to this question, we can refer to what master Samael says about the Manasic substance. He says that in that everyone's inner constitution there is an amount of Manasic substance. That amount of Manasic substance has been deposited into us. This amount of Manasic substance is our mind, and further more this Manasic substance is intimately related with our psychology. Our Psychology Our psychology is made up of our essence and this Manasic substance. The two substances overlap  and intermingle and together they produce for us our psychological space and material. Master Samael gives us an important key, he says that in any ego there are two substances or elements that are bottled up or conditioned. They are a fraction of the essence and a fraction of our Manasic substance. In short the Manasic substance, is the substance of the mind and also of will. The word Manasic comes from the Sanskrit word: Manas which means "mind" or...

The Mighty Seven  The seven types so of men are human beings who have a degree of individuality, a degree of being self-made. The higher the number, the higher the degree of individuality. For example man number 6 has a higher degree of being self-made or individuality than man number 5. Man number 5 has mad an individual emotion, that is such a man has his own emotion, he has real emotion and independence in his emotion. Man number 6 has more individuality because he has fabricated his own emotion and mind and he has the ability to feel the real and think objectively. Certainly Different They are certainly different. They do not look any different here physically but they internally are very different. The difference between someone with the bodies and someone who does not have them can only be seen in the way they act. That is in the power of their actions. End (2384).

Egos Take the Role of the Egos Master Samael says that the various egos that we have actually take up the role of the bodies. Shadows Master Samael says that the people without the bodies are like ghosts or shadows in the astral, mental and causal worlds. This is because they are only essence in those dimensions which is like something partly invisible and visible in those dimensions this is because the essence is not astral or mental matter. If a person is not in the superior dimensions as essence they are a lot of egos projecting themselves as effigies into those dimensions. For example, the emotion, mind and will of the ego are projections into those dimensions. Even if the ego is present in those dimensions the ego there is like a ghost because once again the ego is conditioned essence and it is not physical, vital, astral or mental material. End(2383).

Internal  Bodies    They are  called the internal bodies because in us right here and now what is internal to us are our thoughts, our feelings, our yearnings or will. Therefore as the bodies are emotion, mind and will which are internal, they are called the internal bodies. The internal bodies also correspondingly also belong to our internal dimensions. These dimensions are in and up within ourselves. Solar Bodies The bodies are called solar bodies because they are made with solar elements, that is they are made with the transmuted sexual energy and the consciousness. One characteristic of the solar force is reciprocity. The transmutation is about reciprocity, because we receive the materia prima from nature and the Being in us and via transmutation we send it back upto the Being transformed and transcended to a higher octave than the original materia prima. The solar forces do this, the lunar forces don’t operate in this way they just take an...

Introduction This point is the main practical point behind the ‘what’ and ‘why’ of the bodies. This point comes directly from Master Samael. Master Samael says that when someone creates a body that person has fabricated an aspect of individuality. For example when someone fabricates a mental body, that person has fabricated a mind for him or herself. Or actually better said, that person has fabricated a mind for their inner Being. Master Samael says that before that, a person does not have a mind, he says that a person instead of having one mind, actually has several minds. That is the mind of each ego. Which often disagree with each other and are at odds with each other. The thing here though is that the bodies are real and so they give us or rather our inner Being access to real mind, real emotion and real will.   The ego which takes the place of the bodies is not real astral, nor real mind nor real will material. It is conditioned essence projected into...

Partly a Mystery Being honest they are a little bit of a mystery. However, using the esoteric axiom: “as above so below” we can get a better idea. With our physical body, we certainly know what it is, what it is for and why we have it. We know partly how it works but certainly not fully. So if we can answer these questions about the physical body we can answer the same questions regarding the bodies. But before we develop this line of explanation further we must stress the following point. The bodies are voluntary and conscious fabrications. Meaning that they have to be crystallised by the person who wishes to possess them. This also tell us that if we have to fabricate them it means that not everybody has them by default. Voluntary Fabrications – Possible Septuple Constitution of Man The first point here to make, is a discovery that Master Samael made. Initially, he believed that all human beings have seven bodies. He thought this because he certainly had a...

In General The bodies in general, that is as a group name, have been called the following names: Gnostic solar bodies, internal bodies, internal vehicles, sidereal bodies Theosophy superior existential bodies of the Being Christianity Wedding Garments Kabbalah Moranbah Greek To Soma Heliakon Egyptian Sahu Individual Individually the bodies have been called the following: Theosophy Astral (emotion), mental (mind), causal (will), buddhic (consciousness) and Atmic (spirit or Being) Kabbalah Hod (astral), Netzach (mental), Tiphereth (causal), Geburah (consciousness) and Chesed (spirit or Being) Egyptian Ka (astral), Ba (mental), Ku (causal) Esoteric (Gurdjieff) kedsjano (astral), Anskoano (mental), Egoaitoorasiana (causal) Sanskrit Sthula Sharira (physical), Sthula Sharira (vital), Kama Rupa (astral), Manas Inferior (mental), Manas Superior or Arupic body (causal) Christian Carnal body (physical), natural body (astral), spiritual b...

Introduction This is the first hurdle regarding the topic of the bodies. Before hearing about ‘the bodies’ we believe that there is only one body – the physical body. However, the esoteric teachings say that there are several bodies available to the human being. The reason why there are several bodies is because of the multi-dimensionality of space. As to why there are multiple dimensions and as to why there are the specific number of dimensions that there are, is all a matter of the Absolute. Why the Absolute unfolded Itself into creation the way it has, is something mostly unknown to us. But none the less we can still gain a kind of understanding about al of this. Read the next sub-section... Maybe a Kabbalist could have something more to say about that, as it is really a matter of the study of the Tree of Life. If there is a Dimension there is a Body There are the seven dimensions in nature set up by the Law of Seven. In each of these dimensions the t...

The following posts are aimed at a bit of a complement to the seven types of man lecture, which is in essence about the solar bodies and the qualities that a person who has consciously fabricated these bodies possesses. End (2377).

There are Egos Behind Our Small Behaviours and Thoughts We may have been aware of thoughts, points of view, opinions, tendencies and then one day we discover that there is a particular ego behind all of those things. That is a really interesting, helpful and partly illuminating moment. Just knowing this that there is an ego behind it, makes it all clear and puts it all into perspective and lines things up for us to be able to dissolve all of these behaviours and errors etc. Because before knowing that these behaviours came from a particular ego we were doing something but it was not so effective. In short, if we have an ego it is because we have done what that ego is about it before. So there is the ego of suicide, the ego of adultery, the ego of harming others, the ego of this and that crime, the ego of revenge, the ego of sport, the ego of chess and so on and so on. All of these egos are person living inside of us, that have their thoughts and commitments ...

Disclaimer! I am not suicidal or anything like that – just sharing my observations I have made internally and externally over the years. I don’t really know why but it seems to be flowing so freely, that I thought I should type it out. Introduction- A Common State This is a common interior state, which I think that a good number of people may have experienced or may experience in their lifetime. Such a state of wanting to commit suicide comes from a kind of debasement, which in turn is usually the result of some kind of loss of a pillar that was holding up the person’s psychology. For a person to want to commit suicide, it would mean that the person failed at something or lost something, and with that loss, a decent part of his or her psychology that was giving meaning to their life, or was motivating them in life, or allowing them to feel happy or feel loved or feel appreciated, or was somehow defining them to themselves was cracked, dashed or pulled out from ...

Introduction This post is a little bit about the sacred fire and a little bit about how it helps us. First of all it may be useful to acquaint ourselves with some of the properties of the fire that we know physically, of which, is also a manifestation of the cosmic fire. Fire Properties Here it is useful to go over some significant esoteric properties of fire. Fire is energy, vitality, life, spirit. It transforms radically. It consumes and raises up the essential. Fire is an intermediary between matter and the spirit. Wherever there is fire, there is a portal blazing, a bridge taking what there is of tangible matter into what there is of intangible energy. It consumes and takes matter to the spirit. Fire always ascends. Fire rises and raises. It does this because it is about liberating energy, and energy must rise to the spheres to which is proper of it. Energy can not descend further into matter once it ha...
