That of Being Hermetic - (3068)

Terms

In Gnosis we encounter the words Hermetic, Hermetic seal, Hermes and Hermes Trismegistus.

The first two terms: hermetic and hermetically sealed are terms that we encounter often. The word silence is always attached to these two terms.

This is because the Great Master Hermes Trismegistus, also known as the Thrice Great God of Thoth who was the Egyptian God of magic, writing and wisdom was associated with being the first one to make a totally sealed glass vessel. Hence the esoteric and conventional scientific term hermetic seal and hermetically sealed. 


Hermes was the Greek God of Mercury, which was also the God of commerce, intellect and was also a messenger of the Gods. The Master Hermes Trismegistus Master Samael says, is intimately related to the planet Mercury.

In the Physical, Psychological and Alchemical Senses

The term hermetic has a physical, alchemical and psychological relevance or sphere.

In the physical sense it is related to keeping silent. In the Alchemical sense it is not loosing the sexual energy and in the psychological sense it is related to keeping our internal tongue (internal chatter in our mind) quiet.

In these three cases, the Alchemical sense allows our Alchemical work to progress, the psychological sense allows the awakening of the consciousness and the dissolution of ego to progress and the physical sense allows the esoteric group to become coherent, ordered and progress in trust and as dynamic unit. 

The Hermetic seal is actually a magical principle and fundamentally important magical principle. In the next section I'll explain why it is so important.

A Magical Principle

It is indeed a magical principle and this really is very helpful to understand.

As soon as we create a hermetic seal we create something. We create a magical chamber or a magical environment in which something can develop. It is very much as if we are to create an egg. Where we know the creation of life gestates and develops. If that egg or magical environment is broken what is developing within it dies.

The Cosmic egg or just the archetype of an egg is the primordial expression of the Hermetic seal, therefore it is a very primordial fundamental principle for the creation of anything.

If we lose the sexual energy we can can not create anything within ourselves using our transmutation. If we do not silence our internal chatter we waste so much psychic energy such that we can not awaken and if we speak about everything that we experience we dissipate the very powerful effects that such a mystical experience is to have on our interior.

The Hermetic seal of keeping silent allows our mystical experiences to take their maximum effect upon us. It makes sense to be silent and once the experience has effected it maximum transformation on us and no more transformation can come about we can speak helping others.

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).
