We Make Ourselves Feel Happy and Sad!

We Make Ourselves Feel Happy and Sad! - (3530)

We often think it is others that make us feel happy or sad. We are like the guitar that Master Samael wrote about, where he said that people can play any tune on us that they wish, a tune that makes us to vibrate with feelings from happiness to sadness.

The mechanics by which we feel happy or sad are all within us. What's more we ourselves are the ones who operate this machinery.

Well, it is our subconscious that operates it. But we can come to be in charge of it.

If others are happy around us we feel happy and we do positive things for ourselves and also others as well.

If others are unhappy with us, we get worried and we stop doing good things for ourselves and others.

We lack the power to be independent of those two circumstances...

If we just notice that it is ourselves that give ourselves like a kind of good feeling towards ourselves, we can take that power into our own hands and not let the ego control it.

We are the ones that produce a bad feeling towards ourselves too. If we stop that and generate the good feeling towards ourselves consciously we help ourselves to combat this abrasive tendency of feeling unhappy when others are unhappy with us. It is hard work but we have to start somewhere and this is a good start.

Also, the degree to which we feel unhappy about others all depends on how much esteem, respect and importance we give those others who are unhappy with us.

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).
