Fantasy Posts: Lust and Fantasy

Fantasy Posts: Lust and Fantasy - (3708)

I honestly think that the intellectual or mental processes of lust can not really function without fantasy.

Fantasy is projection.

The thoughts of lust are mostly images.

All images are not the reality. You imagine a person but that is the image of the person as you saw them yesterday wearing green, but right now they are wearing purple with messed up hair, all miserable, looking the opposite of how they looked yesterday.

The main component of lustful mental processes is desire.

The images are just a consequence, they are called in to give shape or form, support and some organisation and correlation to the desire.

Desire is conditioned will. Will organises the mind in accordance with its will.

Will is always about 'to do something', like: to eat, to buy, to go, to see, to hear, to travel etc.

Furthermore there is always a reason 'to do something'. There is a reason: to eat, to drink, to walk isn't there?

Search to find these reasons, inquire within and this inquiry will give you light. I think you may find some things that you hadn't thought of before. Things that are surprisingly not as tainted as we may think.

The fantasies of lust reflect the desires. So when working on the fantasies of lust go straight to desire.

Desire is emotional. In the emotional is where we can find out the most about desire.

Of course we can't see desire without compensation, balance. So what is the desire balancing? Our ignorance, our sadness, our something...

The senses can be pleased and displeased. Pleased senses implies some desire and displeased senses implies some avoidance.

Pleased senses usually are the recognition of a quality. Pleased sight is symmetry, geometrical proportion according to the golden ratio etc.

Pleased senses in the mind creates an interpretation. This interpretation is usually a fantasy, which is a fantasy based on many concepts that are often proven false in the reality of things. Here our awakening or questioning is useful as we can avoid the fantasy by not buying into its premise.

Kundry from Parsifal Unveiled - (3948)

The character Kundry is very unusual, and has a mysterious role in Wagner's opera: Parsifal. As master Samael explains, Kundry represents the archetype of the feminine. That mysterious yet extraordinarily powerful force that can raise a man to the heights of realisation or sink him into the abyss of failure. Kundry in the opera takes on a few different opposing roles, one where she is the temptress that seduced the king of the Holy Grail: King Amfortas giving Klingsor the opportunity to steal the Lance of Longinus and wound his side. She then helps the wounded king searching for balms to heal the wound in his side, then she is again the temptress that tries to seduce Parsifal the young knight who tries to redeem the lost lance. When Parsifal is victorious destroying the castle of Klingsor Kundry changes roles to become a servant of the holy grail and the knights of the order of the holy grail. These are all aspects of the powerful feminine force that is varied and has many differe...

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...
