Love Posts: Happiness Starts when we Start to Love - (3852)

So typically we human beings only really love ourselves. We have like a small circle in which our love works right? And in that small circle there is only really ourselves.

So we have to expand it, a bit at a time to include others or other things into that circle.

We have to love something that is not us. Even if that be a cat, a bird, a dog, a mouse, a crow, a lizard, the oceans, a lake, flowers, a fish, a something.

When we start to love that something or someone, we care for it/them, we look out for it/them, care for its/their welfare, etc. Doing that allows us to feel a kind of love and can even give us one day a glimpse of a higher type of love.

Anyway, to be happy, we have to love and to love we need to expand our circle of love to include someone or something else.

To love something or someone else we have to move, we have go to it or them. We want to be happy, we want to love so it makes sense (coherent) that we should fulfill our own wish to love.

Now here this post gets a bit sour. Our selfishness is our big obstacle to our happiness. We have this selfishness because of ignorance. We ignore the fact that our selfish attitude is not good for us. I'll tell you why our selfish attitude is not good for us.

When we expect others to come to us to fulfill our wishes, especially like the wish to love, we miss out on being humble and kind, and we stay proud and distant. Then the love that we are wishing to create doesn't grow, not even a tiny bit. Instead we strengthen pride and selfishness, and those two elements are big enemies of love and therefore enemies to our own happiness.

In working on pride and selfishness love is something that helps to weaken and dissolve them. M.m.m told me once that love is more powerful than pride. Its best then to stick with the more powerful ally right?

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...

Gnostic View on Vampires and Dracula - (426)

Introduction I came across this passage from Master Samael when reading up about the Earth’s two Moons. I was quite astonished, mainly because I always thought that vampires did not exist or only existed in the Astral as a type of negative entity. However, Master Samael says in the following excerpt that a vampire is a condition that can be unfortunately developed by a human being. He says further that it is a very abnormal and abominable condition, which certainly it is. From Master Samael “Among the most abominable products of Lilith, it is opportune to cite the case of Count Dracula in Russia. This movie personage truly existed, and H. P. Blavatsky comments about him in one of her books. This great female Master stated that such a Count (in times of the Czars) was the Mayor of a certain Russian town. He mortally hated his wife, because vampires are homosexuals; they mortally hate the opposite sex. After...
