Acceptance and Loose Sauce Bottle Top - (3061)

Acceptance is powerful. With it we embrace reality and stop our war with reality - which only ever produces endless sufferings.

This has happened to us all - right! How angry can we get. One boss I had wanted to fire the person
who didn't replace the toilet paper roll. No one owned up to it because I think it was me...
It all comes around in the end.
Here are two examples where acceptance is useful - you are in a hurry and there is an empty toilet paper roll which you don't notice until late in the picture, and you are in a hurry again and you don't notice that the screw-top is sitting loose on a sauce bottle and you shaky hastily. You end up with much more sauce than you wanted and then the war starts - "who didn't screw the top back on, who did that?".

Acceptance is Key

Acceptance - is the key. It happened, just clean it up and it is over in less than a minute. All done! Something inside wants to wage war - accept once again. Soothe the war. 45 seconds and all happy in contrast to 20 minutes arguing and lecturing and an awful aftertaste. What do you choose?

Old Age Accepting

When our parents get older we can get angry when things like this happen because something inside of us does not want to accept that they are getting old and that they can falter in little things like this in which they never faltered in before. Once again we can overcome this by acceptance.

End (3061).

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).
