Missionary Comparison Trap – (2443)

Fumes that Rise

In the situation where a missionary visits and gives a talk to the group members of another missionary certain fumes can rise to the head of the visiting missionary.

If the visiting missionary believes these fumes which comes from his or her own subconscious an error could be produced.

These fumes may say: “I am addressing more of what these people need.”, “I am doing a better job.” “The people seem really to like my talk and I can really help them.”, “I explain things better.”, “I understand the people better.” etc. etc.

When these fumes are believed one then thinks the real missionary of that group should not be there or has less right to be there which is another fume, and the people wants one there instead. If actions are made on these erroneous beliefs then problems result – obviously!

In order to not believe these fumes one must question these fumes.


Questioned Fumes

“I am addressing more of what these people need.”

How do you really know what these people need if you are a visiting missionary? Come on get real.

“I am doing a better job.”

Really? After one talk? Come on get real again. Results take several months to be seen and known clearly and objectively.

“The people seem really to like my talk and I can really help them.”

Maybe yes and maybe no. How do you know it is just because you are new. You have your egos too and your egos can bother the people and in time they (the people) can get tired of those egos too.

“I explain things better.”

Maybe so, but you can explain things well to your own people as well can’t you. Or why not help their real missionary a little to explain things well.

“I understand the people better.”

Really how do you know after one talk? Maybe because you share the same mother tongue you think. Well can you speak another language? No! So why do you think yourself better? Maybe you are younger and in touch and more in touch with technology and the things and ways of the times. Well why not talk to the real missionary about technology then. Then he or she will understand the people just as you think you do better. Understanding the people better is no big deal and it is certainly nothing to special or more suited about.

“Real missionary should not be there.”

Oh really! Didn’t the Divine Law, the Beings of the person and the Monad of their real missionary put him or her there? Come one make it clear in writing to yourself what are the concrete and convincing reasons (physical, psychological and esoteric) why you think you should be there in his or her place?

Conclusion

Those fumes must first not be believed, if they are enticing and are half believed resort to questioning them at depth.

The element (pride) within the subconscious that sent up those fumes must be dissolved. Because such an element is erroneous and produces wrong actions that deceive the person and cause much harm. I have seen instructors end their time in Gnosis disastrously because they believed such thoughts or fumes.

End (2443).

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).
