Why 108 Lives?

Why 108 Lives? - (3138)

Answer: 12 x 9 = 108

9

The number 9 is related to the nine months of human gestation. Also the nine Dantean circles below us and the nine heavens or Sephiroths above. Our passage into heaven or the abyss goes through nine levels, that is nine degrees of absorption or maturation.

12

The number 12 is related to the Zodiac. Also to the 12 smaller cycles (months) in the greater cycle of a year. The 12 zodiacal constellations, 12 apostles etc.

Therefore 108 lives represents a human being's gestation in the matrix (womb) of the Zodiac.

We may then infer that in a human being's trajectory through 108 lives, there would be considerable travel from one sign of the Zodiac to another. We need experience and learn from each zodiacal influence.

Final Comment

It is also worthwhile noting here what Master Samael says in relation to human gestation. He says that during gestation a human being passes through the 'four', that is the four stages of: mineral, vegetable, animal and humanoid. The nine months of human gestation prepare us for life on Earth, and completes our entry into life on Earth. Just as the nine heavens lead us into full absorption as a celestial citizen, as a realized one.

Once that 'human life on Earth' gestation is complete we are then ready to move onto the next step, which is either gestation in heaven or gestation in the underworld. Many Gnostic people right now are at this point. They have lived already many of their 108 lives and are currently in the process of defining themselves to begin their gestation in heaven or in the abyss.

End (3138).

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...

Gnostic View on Vampires and Dracula - (426)

Introduction I came across this passage from Master Samael when reading up about the Earth’s two Moons. I was quite astonished, mainly because I always thought that vampires did not exist or only existed in the Astral as a type of negative entity. However, Master Samael says in the following excerpt that a vampire is a condition that can be unfortunately developed by a human being. He says further that it is a very abnormal and abominable condition, which certainly it is. From Master Samael “Among the most abominable products of Lilith, it is opportune to cite the case of Count Dracula in Russia. This movie personage truly existed, and H. P. Blavatsky comments about him in one of her books. This great female Master stated that such a Count (in times of the Czars) was the Mayor of a certain Russian town. He mortally hated his wife, because vampires are homosexuals; they mortally hate the opposite sex. After...
