Oh No Here Comes the Belly Dancer!

Oh No Here Comes the Belly Dancer! - (3413)

Have you ever been in that embarrassing situation where you are with your Gnostic friends at a Lebanese or Greek restaurant and then out comes the belly dancer.

How awkward what do you do?

If you look at the belly dancer, your Gnostic friends may think you are identified, and then if you say to yourself: "I'm not going to worry too much about what they think, they are good friends" and keep watching, then the belly dancer comes over to you and wants you to dance. Then it happens that you can't dance, you don't how to dance Greek or Lebanese style so you go red like a tomato. Then you say: "no more Greek or Lebanese restaurants!". Then starts the subconscious, the next time someone says lets go Lebanese you say no without a good reason or produce some pathetic excuse.

Anyhow, back to the restaurant. All the other patrons in the restaurant are there watching, clapping, singing and dancing. Not just the old men but the children too. All happy as Larry! Something then is wrong in our minds. If they seem to enjoy it without any problems why can't we have a better approach then written in the previous paragraph?

Sure without the worry of lust and pride one can observe with a clear mind and smile to the music and then when it is over it is over in your mind not to be thought more of.

End (3413).

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...

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...

Embrace Motor Centre Lingo to Act - (6101)

To overcome the overthinking issue and the lamentation of not doing, we can use a key where we embrace the language of the motor centre. Before we do that we need to know the language of the motor centre. The language of the motor is action, it is doing. It is life in motion. It is starting, it is 'getting stuck into' a task without reasoning. "Get it done!" is the motto of the motor centre. "Let's find out!" is another. The motor centre modus operandi is not reasoning, that belongs to the intellect. So delaying and postponing is the intellect. It's not the motor centre. The motor centre is about doing. The more we just do something when we think of it or feel like no matter what the mind reasons (unless a very good physical reason) the more we are embracing the language of the motor centre. Action without thinking. There has to be thinking but thinking aligned with doing, not thinking against doing. The motor is always doing. Not doing something...
