Gnosis Wisdom

Introduction If the mind goes bananas for a while, well, ok - that's not as important as what one did while it was ‘mind gone bananas’ time. What we did made us to learn something. It turns out that if we don't do anything we tend not to learn much. That is the important thing to take out of it.  Because what we learn will help us next time, and it may even help us to prevent a 'next time', and if someone else is in 'mind gone bananas' mode we have something up our sleeve to help them.  This post is passing on or sharing some things that may help to treat an agitated mind. Mind Goes Bananas What is typical when the mind gets into such a problematic state is that 'feeling of being overwhelmed'.  The feeling worsens when the thoughts begin to adversely affect our physiology. The thoughts arrive one after the other, triggering emotions and our focus gets very distracted and superficial. We then begin to lack the space and depth neede...

Fulcrums General I just made that up: Priority Control Fulcrum. It is not an official term as far as I know from a business management course. Ok so anyway, what it is about is that there in our psychology actually exist quite a few different fulcrums. The thing is, if we know those fulcrums🔑 and use them we can help ourselves out quite a lot. Basically we can use them to bring control into our psychology. I dare to say that in our psychology to do with each ego there is a particular control fulcrum. Use that fulcrum and you can control that ego, keeping it in the background behind you, and your normal self in the foreground. PCF To not get identified with life, we can make use of the fulcrum which I am deciding to call: PCF. So I am going to write from now on for those who want to do the work, not for those who are not really wanting to do it, because, the latter type of people will only see my words as annoying and stupid. If one understands really well...

🌇Sitting on the porch last night, quiet street, no breeze, hot and humid, talking to m.m.m commenting: "this is like dictatorship war times, like I imagine how it was in the times of Franco, you can't meet with people, no real classes, all online, too restricted, we've got nothing to do at night, its like we lost our third factor job."    It is like the whole routine has been put all on hold so there is a certain kind of freedom.  Not being able to meet means a certain void inevitably gets created. Where before when we were meeting there was effort being made and energy, will and consciousness were being put into activity. Now that does not happen because the meetings are cancelled and so something has to come into that empty space within us. Usually what enters are lunar atoms 🌜. The lunar atoms enter and they make us passive, lazy, distracted and idle. Then the egos begin to feed more and strengthen and that 'shoots ourselves in the foot'. 💥...

Tangent Circumstantial Back to the Kundalini posts... Something beautiful and esoteric, taking away from the depressing karma, fear and worry posts. Nadi Nadi of course is a Sanskrit word meaning channel or flow. Essentially what we can take away from the word nadi is that it refers to energy in motion. If there is a nadi in our body there can be energy moving through it. So our vital or energetic body is composed of a whole network of nadis. Very similar to the amazing network of arteries and veins that we have. I remember that eccentric Austrian anatomist who wears a black hat and is as "pale as a ghost" displaying a body that he 'plasticised', which was only the network of blood vessels, arteries and veins. The Nadi in our body form an energetic network very similar to the network of blood vessels, veins and arteries but made out of finer matter. Any nadi in the body is of course not physical. No anatomical dissection will ever find it. ...

Just how anger 💢 does not solve anything - worrying doesn't either! I remember a few times being worried and someone said that to me, and I wanted to bop them. At that time I just couldn't see their point. I couldn't see that stopping the worries would be an effective solution. I believed that somehow through the worry and the excessive thinking a solution would come. You know what a solution never came. The time approached, reality happened and I went through it. And this happened again and again. Sometimes it was unpleasant but I got through it, sometimes no way near as bad as I was thinking it would be and sometimes it just never happened at all.  Understanding this deeply after a while helps a person to let go of worries. You feel ok to let go of worrying because you know reality is going to happen as it will, reality is reality and it does not obey our worries, it has its own flow to follow. You know that each moment is unique, special and to...

If there is some karma around there will also be some fear around and if there's fear there is some karmic debt around.👮 There is that good old saying: "If you've done nothing wrong you've got nothing to fear.". For sure I lived through that so many times. When I've just stuffed up it is not long before I feel some kind of fear. So a key to living a relaxed life with inner peace is to not make mistakes. An honest life allows a person to concentrate and to be at peace inside of themselves in so many social circumstances of life. When anxiety due to fear becomes so stubborn and even unmovable at times from the human machine it is because of karma.  The power of karma can be felt through fear. Fear really makes us suffer and it is a kind of involuntary way of paying karma.  End (4995).

Working from home mandate has come in and the government is getting pretty tough.  The governments are forced to take such measures, as if they were forced by some invisible powerful iron hand above them.  I suppose a little subjectively, one feels for a few instances like there is formidable force coming from somewhere extending all over the globe. Running this impression by m.m.m, the following remark was his response: "a global karma, that people don't see. They don't see the cause and so they won't address the cause ."  Right now the younger generations if they stay still and remain quiet for a short while, they may be able to perceive karma's formidable power.  Karma can do anything and there is not much that an unjust society or people can do to stop it. Taking this into our consciousnesses we get a boost to work harder in the death of our psychological aggregates. The karma is such that we can't work very much in the third ...

Sometimes when you are going about your day there's that something in the background that's a little distracting, making our concentration a slight bit off, clouding a little our alertness, and making that a little more effort is required to reign in our thoughts.  You ask yourself: "what's that?". A secret pressure to do something, to complete something, to get something done before a certain time, an expectation of something going wrong - an unknown karma, well something a bit obtuse. The truth is that we can't remove it from ourselves, until we know what it is. So by attention to its flavour we can decipher it, by sifting through the feeling of it and asking ourselves a few questions about it.

There are these times of 'the less', 'of shortage', 'of scarcity' etc. sometimes they are outside of us and sometimes within us. Sometimes they are in life and sometimes they are to do with matters more spiritual in kind. All of them no matter what have their reason for being and persisting.  There is something to learn...  It could be that we are to become more conscious of what that thing is that we are short of. It could be to know more about how it affects us. It could be to appreciate and value it more. It could be to pay some karma for having previously abused it. It could be to learn how to create it. It could be to learn how to use it correctly. It could be so to start again... It could be to realise that it is really a gift of the Divinity not to be taken for granted, and that to get it back again we need to really ask, beg, pray and work for it. And if this time we are given the grace of it returning it is for us to use it wisely,...

Introduction In general, collecting things for the psychological worker warrants a careful eye. There can often be some ego behind it. Most often that ego is greed.  Greed Collecting It is easy to know if greed is behind the collecting.  The way to tell, is that if we accumulate things we don't need and the purpose to collect those things is to have those things in our possession because of a kind of abstract reason or fad, then greed is around.  For example, greed collects money to reach a nice round number, but of course that nice round sum with a single digit between 1 and 9 followed by nice round zeros is pure mind, pure abstraction because in terms of need what is the difference between a number looking good with zeros than a mixed up number with a decimal point and everything. Sometimes greed collects so to not see the collected items in the possession of others. Which is a selfish egoical thing really. A museum is interesting as it is essen...

Everything is dual. Here are some good points in my small world that I have noticed about the latest Corona virus related unfolding circumstances. Just writing this to make you laugh a bit. Or maybe you will just want to hit me because you are stuck in lock-down. Oh well ready here goes... Aussie buildings are the cleanest they have ever been. Aussies are now more hygienic. Aussies can be grubs. Forced to take time off or work from home. When does that ever happen when you are are fit to work? Hardly ever right? Best time to go shopping. Sales everywhere. Time to meditate all that you like. Study all that you like. All the gyms are closed - feet up time. Some awkward engagements and commitments have been cancelled - quietly thank goodness. All the buses are running on time. Early even. There's no one to stop for. Back seat Commander cruising down St George's Tce. Normally it would be full! The office is so quiet, you can actually get things done, plus...

Essence to the Rescue In these times what is of major help is to separate from our subconscious. Obviously worry, anxiety which come from fear in our subconscious is the thing that mostly bothers people right now. Subconscious elements often pull on other elements so when our subconscious gets agitated it is common that other egos appear as well, such as anger, irritation and past resentments can get amplified etc. Step 1 As a first port of call, it is very helpful to chant the mantra KRIM praying to the Divine Mother to bring down the subconscious. The Rune UR is so helpful when taking the above step. Of course you can't do that if you are on a bus or driving a car. Step 2 Apply some teachings to calm the subconscious.  Some teachings that really help: If there's a problem there's a solution. Worrying does not solve or improve anything. Life will unfold how it is meant to unfold whether we worry or not. Things are never as bad in reali...

We were always trained by m.m.m that if we came across money with no owner in sight we were to leave it be, because it is not ours. It does not after all belong to us.  I think that everyone of us has come across this situation before.  I have always done this just let it be. I find it sound advice. I recognise though that it did take some time to fully accept and understand. As soon as a person accepts and understands things then will power is not needed. Basically what is honestly worked for belongs to us and comes to us through clear and evident to all means. Picking up money off the floor is not really so clear or evident. Someone could come along and say it was there's that fell out of their pocket a few minutes ago. How can we say that is not true and that we have a right to take it?  End (3504).

Basically that's it really to achieve anything. Have the Law (cosmic and human) behind you, being like a wind in your sails. If the Law is not behind us, the Law will stop us, cosmic, divine, human or other wise. Even an ant with the Law behind it can give an Elephant a hard time. If it so happens that we don't have the Law behind us, or only partially behind us, we have to somehow get the Law behind us. Negotiate, pay, work...time, justice, tests, some suffering the process of getting the Law behind you is the good old number 8 of the tarot. End (3503).

The White Lodge and its masters are most definitely watching over the people that work on themselves. Those new or old to the work. The masters are most certainly doing marvellous things to protect and help those who work and even those related to them. Because if one of those relations is affected that person will also be affected adversely.  The masters of the White Lodge who have a physical body are 'hechando muchas rodillas" doing all that they can to help (m.m.m is one who is constantly asking for help).  End (3502).

One day after work, 17:10 hundred hours, out of the office and on my way to catch the 910, walking down St Georges Terrace approaching the traffic lights at the corner of St. George's and Miligan there was a very elegant lady, executive type, dressed to kill as they say, hand bag, high heels and laptop.  Then she just falls over, laptop and hand bag contents go everywhere. People scramble to help and collect the rolling contents of her hand bag. Someone asks: "are you ok?" and she says a few times: "yes, just so embarrassed". She took it pretty well actually. Just so strange how she fell, Just standing there and then next thing she's on the pavement. All of that happened right there in front of me like 8 metres away. That was something I least expected from a lady like that. Something like that has to make one reflect. We can walk around sometimes so far removed from those so very human possibilities of 'stacking it' (Aussie expressi...

Jumped on the bus this morning and there was like an astronaut looking at me from one of the front seats. I wanted to take a photo but the bus took off and I had to scramble to a seat before I tripped over, plus it would have been an offence to the guy. Anyway, perhaps the people who left the study and practice of Gnosis may be thinking: "yeah those Gnostics were right about how people would go crazy when all these world wide calamities begin".  All that panic buying is showing how us instinctive and selfish we are really in our society and how far we are from the essence and how rooted we are in the economy of matter. The refuge is not necessarily in hoarding or stockpiling food or preparing the bunker for doomsday, but in how deeply we can take refuge in our own essence. End (3500).

If we observe carefully, we will find that every activity and environment requires the engagement of the consciousness plus one sense and one centre much more than others. For example, while driving we need consciousness plus sight plus motor centre. While in a lecture we need consciousness plus hearing. When exercising we need touch plus motor centre plus consciousness. When praying we need emotion plus consciousness, when at work we need consciousness plus intellect (learning, calculating etc.) plus sight and so on. It is so helpful to recognise the main sense or centre and then collect our consciousness and focus on that. That helps us to be more conscious, focused, in the moment and relating correctly with the activity and environment. End (3499).

Sometimes our past accumulates there in the background, a touch outside of the periphery of our awareness. Then one day it starts to creep back into life but with a bit of force, (of course karmic force) that stirs things up in our life and within our inner life also. Its nothing surprising because it is about dealing with what was left undealt with outside of ourselves  and also inside of ourselves. Just what irks one is how it appears 'out of the blue', why right now? End (3498).

Good morning! Humility is so many things. One thing that we may find that it is, is an inner kind of peace that arises when we travel back to our essence. Which is our real self. Pride when we study it in ourselves, has a lot to do with the many false concepts that we have about ourselves. Whenever we are displaced, or have to stand down, we have no where else to go but to our essence. When we remember again that our essence is our true place, our true self we feel like at peace and grateful to be back there again. End (3497).

Introduction Here are some short notes about this part of the ego and the work related to it. Notes Here goes... Definition I think the hypnotic grip of any ego, is critical to study and work on. Why? Because of it we can not separate from an "I". Because of it we fall into identification with an "I". Freeing yourself from the hypnotic grip of the ego is the start of the decline of any ego we are working on. To break the hypnotic grip of an "I" is to break the back bone of that "I". What is the hypnotic grip of an "I"? Simple, it is the power of an "I" to take over our human machine.  Seen from another angle it is our incapacity to let go of an "I" when it wishes to take over our human machine from its abode in our subconscious. Seen from yet another angle, it is the sheer beguiling subconscious force that causes us to join sides with an "I", yet we know intellectually...

The events and times in which we are in can distract us quite a lot. Reading the updates, communicating it to others, tracking down the difficult things to buy etc. However, the paradox is, that the same events and times show us that we can't afford to be distracted in our psychological and esoteric work. The P.P.P is still alive, our weaknesses are still alive and if want to be at least psychologically with our 'head above water' we have to remember our essence and our Being and face those weaknesses within us, working constantly on them.   Something that we can't let happen is that the preoccupations we could have about the virus and its consequences or impact, to take hold of our subconscious. Then we are in trouble. I mean majorly distracted.  If we dream about eh virus and the impact it is having on our daily lives then it has reached our subconscious. That means if we want to keep our 'head and above water' and not get lost in a current of ma...

The Three Gunas are three qualities within the Cosmic Divine Mother. They are: Tamas, Rayas and Sattva. Tamas is inertia and pacifying, Rayas is agitating and activating, and Sattva is harmony and balance. There is, for example a lot of Sattva in the heart. These equate to moon, sun and fire. That is lunar, solar and Kundalini. Kundalini is the third balanced force, the result of the unifying shock of the two opposites. So everything in creation is a combination of these qualities. Even you yourself is a combo of these three qualities. There are even some indication by which you can tell where the balance of your particular combination lies. But not in the scope of this post. Master Samael actually mentions it. It has a little to do with the type of food we like. The three coils of the Divine Mother Kundalini represent these three Gunas. Those three Gunas feature not only in the number of coils but in other aspects as well. Such as in the Sushumna canal....

The Weekend The weekend is a bridge between the week days. Everyone knows that of course. However, when working on something where we want to follow a continuous line, the weekend is more than a bridge, it is a launch pad into the new week. For me the most important part of the day is the morning. It is good to get up earlier and give yourself time to be calm and go inside, then for the rest of the day, if we are careful with identification, we can ride on that calm introspective wave making for ourselves a very different day. A good weekend of work sets the new week off on a slightly newer octave, to do with a plethora of things. Which could be slightly more energy, insight, understanding, force, decision, determination, concentration etc. etc. many things, whatever happens.   Damage Control One thing we don't want is that the weekend causes us to go backwards. How we take to our weekends is important really.  Imagine you are on a diet and the weekd...

Gleaming Intro As an aspirant to the path or to the awakening of Kundalini, whether the person be single or married it is I believe highly beneficial to know the function of the Kundalini. Basically, if we understand in basic terms what the Kundalini is we can gleam some of its functions. The functions of the Kundalini are really also the reasons to awaken it. Functions The Kundalini lights up our occult anatomy. All of our chakras shine brilliantly and bloom. Whereas before Kundalini they are limp and darker in function it is written. The Kundalini purifies the various centres of perception. Allows the rhythms of the Cosmic fire in space to resound in us, so that we can join into harmony with the Universe in a gradual and relative way. Connects us to Divinity, tangibly and energetically. Provides the spiritual energy for our spiritual work. It is the power source that motors us through the Work. It is what reveals the mysteries. It provides us with wisdom of li...

Potential/Static or Dynamic As mentioned in earlier posts the energy of Kundalini can be either in potential or dynamic. In human beings it is potential, i.e. static, dormant. Kundalini is a power station that supplies spiritual energy and that power station can be either disabled or enabled. Closed-down for now or open for open for business.  And you know it has to be dormant... Yet for the spiritual path it must become the opposite: dynamic and active. Active is Strict If it were active in the human being who is not interested in using it inline with its nature, that is using the spiritual energy of Kundalini for the work of spiritual realisation, it would be disastrous! Can you imagine that, the cosmic divine creative fire of the Cosmic Mother active and developed in the human being with the ego well and alive and the human being not interested in the Spirit. All the chakras would be active and human beings would develop machines and technology to su...

Here at work in the city, the bus into the city is like one third full when usually it is full,  the streets are like half empty along with the shops and the office floor of about 20 something is down to 4 with the rest working from home. All meetings are via Webex or Teams i.e. online and 'elbow' knocks substituting hand shakes. For sure there is something going on.  Following the Law of the Pendulum, after the virus situation 'blows over' there will be a swing the other way. Then after that there will be things learnt and then balance or 'normal' again.  Let's wait and see how the Law of the Pendulum will process things. End (3493).

This is a truth that is very useful to combat fear, anxiety, stress, worry and anger. If there is a problem there is a solution m.m.m. says. Fear turns to panic when we just see PROBLEM! When we continue seeing only PROBLEM a constant anxiety takes grip. When we remember the truth: "if there's a problem there's a solution" anxiety drops down a gear and another and another. Then 'I ho I ho its off to I work go" looking for the solution. Meditating and praying is very helpful to find a solution or get close to it. The solution is most often in the problem and the solution is not always a physical one but an internal one.  End (3492).

Serpentine Fire The serpent is a special symbol very present in esotericism. You see the serpent present in so many texts and books on spirituality, and the Kundalini is almost always related to the serpent, in the sense of a serpentine fire (fire in the shape of a serpent). Master Samael says that because the fire of Kundalini rises all the way up the spinal column through the Sushumna channel it takes an elongated shape exactly like a serpent. Kundalini links the sexual power to the spinal column and the spinal column to the brain. If we look at any snake we see exactly that: a brain and long spinal column. A serpent is the perfect symbol for Kundalini. The serpent also represents the nervous system and is s symbol for sex, for the Divine Mother, the Third Logos and the Typhon Baphomet. Wise as Serpents, and Harmless as Doves The serpent gives wisdom, because it reveals good and evil through its two polarities. Wisdom is the result of the contrast of the opp...

Two Poles - Duality Master Samael teaches that the Kundalini has two poles. This in the beginning is strange. Two poles like as in duality, the plus and the minus. Why a minus? What helps to understand this is that the Kundalini is spiritual energy. Which is energy none the less. Everything here in the cosmos including the physical world is of the Cosmic Mother. The energy present in creation, is the Cosmic Divine Mother's and it is Her also. So energy here in the physical world manifests always in two poles and over a spectrum. The two poles actually create the spectrum. There is potential energy and kinetic energy. There infra-red light and ultra-violet light, acidic and alkaline, negative and positive charges and so on. So the Kundalini being primordial cosmic energy in its manifestation in the world, has to have its two poles just as all other types of energy have. Static and Dynamic We see firstly that Kundalini has a static and dynamic expression. In hum...

We go through these stages: buying too much, eating too much, exercising too much, reading too much, studying too much, going out too much, staying inside too much, crying too much, thinking too much, dreaming too much, criticising too much, worrying too much, talking too much, sleeping too much, getting up too early too much, etc. No matter what side of things they are on, they are all the 'too much'. For example you have the opposites go out and stay home. Both extremes are too much, in the sense of: going out or staying home too much.  Anyway they are good learnings because then we get to know the healthy and constructive conscious balance. We usually come to balance when we discover some false needs being behind the 'too much'. When we understand that we don't really need those false needs and that we instead need something more internal then balance and independence appears. Is there anything now that you are doing which is too much? If so ...

It's a bit awkward when some distant family members ask you to meet and it comes out that you are happily busy every night of the week and the whole of Saturday. They then say doing what? You then say Gnosis. Ok so they go look at you puzzled and they go away and what do they do? They look it up, on where? Google of course. Thank goodness some decent sites appear in the search results.  Of course they click on some of these search results and of course they click the links related to sexuality and the death of the ego. Then come some questions of course.  In my experience it is best to meet those questions with good and clear explanations.  If we remain silent they talk and spread all sorts of wrong perceptions and concepts, which in time end up festering. We may not care about what they think and so no problems, but it can create a problem for your immediate family where these distant family members start bombing your parents for example with questions and ...

Curious Buildings those Temples of Humanity You guys seem a bit bored with the Kundalini posts so here is one that I've pulled out of the air for a bit of interest.  Actually it is an area of life and in every area of life there can be virtues and defects, sleep and awakening, work to do or evaluate. Well, hospitals are very curious places, there is a lot of importance going on there. They are in some way a kind of temple for humanity. I think that the points below may support that point of view. Butterflies 'Just want to know that the hospital staff are aware of me - that's all'. I've noticed in myself that there is a particular 'being in hospital' ego that can appear. We have been in hospitals or similar places in our past many times, that we inevitably end up creating something particular in our psychology specifically related to be in hospital. It has its particular flavour that a keen self-observer will be able to detect. Its...
