More on Mantras Again

Recap

A mantra is a sound that encloses an energy, a power that is intended to set the chanter's consciousness free from his/her mind so that the chanter's consciousness can experience and meld with the energy enclosed in the mantra.

Here is an example to illustrate the above point.

Roger chants the mantra HAR-PO-CRAT-IST. Those letters form a mantra and that mantra is a sound, and a sound is a vibration and what makes a vibration is an energy. So Roger chanting HAR-PO-CRAT-IST starts to make his whole mind sound, and because it is sounding it is also vibrating and because the mind is falling into order, Roger's consciousness will begin to detach from the mind and it will naturally begin to experience the energy of the mantra and then experience the power behind the energy.

That is how mantras work.

Luke Warm

We most often don't really get them to work because we lack concentration. What really gives us concentration is trust, hope, faith and higher trust. In that order.

So trust allows us to be open to accept the mantra, that is to accept the power of sound. Then hope allows us to embrace the mantra intensely, and faith allows us to really penetrate into it with deep emotion and then higher trust allows us to identify with the sound, that is to become that sound, to trustfully surrender ourselves to it. Then magic happens...

Identification

A note on identification. Identification is not bad or good. Like a knife or a box of matches. It all depends on what we identify with. If we identify with things that are not us - all suffering happens. If we identify with what we are - all peace and authencity happens.

So identify with the ego - then we all the know the results and feelings. Identify with the essence then we also know the results.

You know identification is not possible without the elements of trust, faith and hope. When we identify with the ego we trust it, we have hope in it and we believe in it don't we? When we stop believing in it, that ego is going to start to die.

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...

Want to Know Your Cosmic Ray or the Ray of Your Being? – (1088)

What is a Ray? A ray is a certain line of unfolding from the Absolute. The primordial and most fundamental ray is the Okidanokh ray that provided and continues to provide the means for creation to unfold outwards from within the absolute. When a Monad (your Being for example) or as Master Samael sometimes refers to it - a divine virginal spark, leaves the Absolute to enter into creation, it does so in accordance to a certain ray. This ray is part of the order of creation and this order has been established originally by the Absolute itself. The ray upon which a Monad or our Being has emanated from the Absolute pertains to a certain place and function in creation. This function in turn determines some of the characteristics, wisdom, learnings and nature that a Monad (our Being) expresses in creation. For example, take master Samael Aun Weor, his Monad Samael belongs to the ray of Force, and for sure such a Being would possess certain characteristics and a nature that per...
