Some Notes as to the Origin of the Functioning of the Defect of Lust - (3621)

We know that within us there are the male and female divine principles. The human soul (Manas or Tipereth) and the spiritual soul (Buddhi or Geburah).

In order to create certain aspects of the inner universe of our Being, these two Divine parts complete the sexual act. A divine act. They combine and create within our interior from their divine union.

When these parts unite there is further unity and completion in the Being. When all parts of our Being have been found there is unity and completion. 

That unity is of happiness and sexual energy being an energy of unity and an energy ultimately of the inner Being is also happiness. The nature of the divinity is happiness and this is present in the sexual energy.

That is why many people seek the sexual act, out of the instinctive knowing of the quality of that energy. Usually the interior states that need compensating for such as sadness, boredom, feeling low, cause a person to seek the sexual act.

It has been said that the utmost authentic happiness of the Being occurs when the Being unites all of its parts.

With the fall, the unity within the Being was broken. A great divide and a great disconnection occurred within the Being. 


The initiatic path is about repairing this inner disconnection, one stage at a time.

The defect of lust, like all the other egos has its functions. One function is to try and repair this great inner divide.  

There exists this impulse that arises from deep within and it takes that impulse and adds to it, its mechanical modes of functioning, in order to take that impulse to fruition. But of course being mechanical it does not do things very well and can make that divide much worse. 

Lust and sex are something separate really. Lust uses sex but it itself is something else. It is a psychological person within us that has its use, thinking and desires related to sex but it is not sex itself.

We know also that the defect of lust constantly searches for relationships. It always looks at others for that possibility. It is unknowingly acting on that impulse trying to bridge this disconnection between the two souls within.

It searches to help out that impulse to reconnect the inner disconnection between the two souls within the Being through external means, through the senses, through relativity, through sensations, etc.

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).
