We Control: Ok, Others Control: Panic

We Control: Ok, Others Control: Panic - (3371)

We can manage fairly well when we are directing an activity, but when we are subject to the will of others we panic in the worst case or feel uneasy in the least case.

Why?

When we are in control we know what is going to happen (we think we do anyway) and we know we are not going to steer things into our weaknesses or places that we don't want to go to.

When we are not in control we think things are going to be steered into places that we don't like, can't manage, can't cope with etc. We are scared!

The typical problem is that our capacities are limited only to what we like.

We need to expand our capacities to deal and cope with everything. When we get to that point that fear will go.

Example

We must in control of choosing where we eat because I can't have it that we choose Malaysian or Asian as I can't stand noodles. If you can stomach more or less everything and feel well in the tummy and are not a fussy eater, no worries about who chooses where we eat.

I can't let another missionary give a talk because others will like him and go to his group. As I can't stand not being the main source of direction, knowledge, help for my students I can't have that.

I can't have someone say in my house as they will use up my time, my money, my routine will get modified - they will control things and I'll be a subordinate in my own house.

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).
