The Sentimental Link - (3240)

Many Of

We all have some of these sentimental links alive within us... It is a tricky thing to decide what to do with them...

Sometimes they appear too tricky to work on, so we end ignoring them - letting them stay there as they are.

Often we feel very confused as how to work on them when we contemplate working on them.

We have many sentimental links already established, especially with family, friends, work colleagues  etc.

Influence Of

These sentimental links can sway many of our decisions and influence much of our life.

We feel like a kind of love through them, but through them we also hurt quite a bit. 

In general anything that hurts us, the work would tell us to inquire into.

Often we find sentimental links lead us into action that is not so practical. Or they stop us from being practical.

First Measure of Action

What we can do though as first measure, is become very aware of the new sentimental links that we can create.

If we become aware of one being created we can know a lot more about them and knowing more about them will serve as orientation on how to work the existing sentimental links we have.

It is my humble opinion that working the sentimental links that we have is best done this way. Unless life and its circumstance by a force outside of our control causes us to work on them, like a relationship break down or death in the family or friends etc.

Observe 

When we observe a sentimental link being created we see that there are some elements that get introduced that should not be there.

These elements come from us.

Even we may find that something within us warns us and tells us that we don't really need to create a sentimental link with hat person or thing.

The sentimental links are of the subconscious because we can't tell the person - "I am feeling a bit sentimental towards you". They would say "what!" so we keep it to ourselves in our subconscious.

Usually if we have a lack or a need or just bad habits we add these elements into the relationship and then the link begins. 

When they suffer we suffer, when they are happy with us we are happy. When they are not happy with us we are not happy.

A sentimental link is something of a dependence...

We link a part of our psychology to another for a reason to supply something...

We may link our image to another, we may link our affections, we may link our sense of security, we may link our ability to care for ourselves, we may link the sense that another needs us etc. etc.

Conclusion

I think that by being very aware to not create new sentimental links, we can learn about them to such an extent, that we can dissolve the ones that we have, with the end goal of making those relationships much better.

End (3240).

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).
