Fantasy Posts: Basic Combat Training - (3677)

Introduction

That's the question - how to combat fantasy.

Here are some useful steps.

Steps

Step 1 - Ammunition

This is the foundation step. Good foundation = solid work.

Here we know why we want to work on fantasy: to awaken, to save energy, to win our life back, to enjoy our real life, to be present, to have more time of our life etc. 

We also understand the benefits and the negative consequences. We have decided to work on fantasy with the purpose of dissolving it.

Post 3678 gives some good points.

Step 2 - Morning

Wake up in the morning and start the 'work on fantasy' day well. Making at least the first 30 minutes of your day as free from fantasy as possible. This sets us up nicely for the no fantasy work for the rest of the day.


Step 3 - Self-Remembering

We have to enter self-remembering, or enter that place of quieter mind within us. Always try to go back there. Because from there we can see all the arising fantasies.

Step 4 - Alertness

Dial up our alertness to be able to catch the fantasies.

Discard them as you see them untrue and taking you nowhere.

The major key is not to believe in them. If you want to believe in them ask yourself at least why.

Note down observations to take into your work of dissolution. Make special efforts to observe more and comprehend the quality desired in the fantasies that are frequent.

Step 5 - Work

Take the observations and understanding of the persistent fantasies before the Divine Mother for Her to help dissolve them.

End (3677).

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...
