Jealousy is a Mixture of Emotions – Not Just One – (2472)

Confusing

This is an important observation actually. Sometimes we feel sad and empty or even anxious and we don’t associate that sadness or anxiety with jealousy. Do we?

Mainly because we think jealousy only has one set of emotions, like an angry resentful type of flavour. But that is only a part of it, definitely not the full spectrum of emotions that comes from this defect.

This is because a defect has many egos attached to it, and jealousy is indeed a defect. One of the seven capital defects. It is more than an “I”, it is a conjunction of “I’s”.


Spectrum of Emotions

First of all it starts with a protest of the unfair. Then it goes to like a resentment or distrust against the one who we are in a relationship with. Then ill will or a kind of annoyance or anger is felt towards the other person we are not in a relationship with.

These feelings develop over a while and then one day in a social event they manifest so overwhelming intensely that we feel overwhelmed, and then we feel like a kind of anxiety because we suddenly we the feeling we are not in control anymore.

Then we worry that we will loose it again, and loosing it will definitely drive the person we are in a relationship with away. That worry extends to be worried about being abandoned and the worry turn to fear. The fear then leads to a kind of sadness or emptiness where we sink into a kind of despair.

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).
