Past Lives Post 1 of 4: Why Remember - (2867)

Benefits

This post is about the benefits of remembering our past lives.

Below in point form are some of the benefits of working to remember our past lives, which also are the reasons why we want to remember our previous lives.


See Who We Really Are

We can who we really are. We get the chance to see ourselves as an essence, which is the one that has traveled from life to life. This person that we are and the person that we were can not travel into the next life.

It also shows us that we are not home and here - the planet Earth is not home. Home is where we stop travelling. We have been and are right now still travelling - transmigrating.

Seeing this point, that we are an essence, we see that we are part of a very big scheme of things.

Loose Fear

If we really accept past lives we will trust that we will have another life and that we will see those whom we love again. This life is not so bad is it? So the next will not be as bad either.

We have died so many times before and we are ok now. So our coming death will be ok too and soon will be a joyful child looking upon the world with renewed wonder and awe.

Inflated or Humiliated

Over our many lives we were so many different people. Some wealthy and successful and some miserable and poor.

The Buddha is said to have said the following: ‘Who toiled a slave may come anew a prince, for gentle worthiness and merit won. Who ruled a king may wander Earth in rags, for things done and undone.’

Sorry out of time...Will complete over the weekend - my weekend assignment.

Karma Explained

The karma that we have can only really be explained by taking into account our past. Karma works in time and space. Karma was accrued in time and in space and so will be paid in time and space.

Knowing what we did in our past lives gives us knowledge, and knowledge gives us meaning. Knowledge makes sense of the karma that we have right now.

The meaning that we gleam from our past lives gives us the love and strength to pay our karmic debts. Meaning very much so diminishes our suffering.

    I have past life memory of at least 5 or 6 different lives. Seeing some past mistakes has made me careful to choose opposite action and avoid repeat outcomes. Some say whats the point of remembering when you have to live this one. By experience the past life awareness is very helpful in paying karma without reinventing it.

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).
