Karma Cause and Effect Notes - (3906)

Post Description

Some notes about the lecture topic of Karma.

Aussie Boomerang - is like karma, we throw it and it comes back.


Notes

⚓Karma - Sanskrit word meaning cause and effect. 


It is the magic force that ties causes to their effects.


The Law of Karma says that there are no coincidences. All has a cause.


If there is an effect by the law of karma there is a cause.


Create causes to set up effects. If we want a certain effect to happen we must provide the cause. This is immutable. It could be an effect in our inner life or outer life.


It is a cosmic Law. Permeates everything, including everything in our inner and outer life.

It is eternal and formidable. Nothing is exempt from it Nirvana , karma and space are eternal, the Buddha said. 


It is also known as the Law of Balance or Equilibrium. the balance of the Cosmic, the human, the world, the physical, the psychological etc. 


Balance is one of the most important laws in the universe. Without karma or balance the Universe would fall into disarray.


It has been charged with the defined function of keeping all things in balance.


Karma forms a chain of cause and effect. There is a cause which produces an effect and that effect becomes the cause of a new effect and so on and so on.


Karmic debts. They exist and we create them by upsetting the balance. 


The normal human being has so many karmic debts. Totally rare is it for anyone to have none.


We create them due to having our consciousness being asleep.


The consciousness sees cause and effect and knows the balance and sees the balance and abides by the balance. Because it knows well that imbalance brings pain.


We accrue karmic debts for the bad actions and for the good actions we don't do.


To be free one has to arrive at the state of not owing and not being owed. Adeptus Exemptus.


We all have karmic debts. One of the goals of Gnosis is to lead the aspirant to pay all these debts


Dharma: Sanskrit word for compensation. Cosmic capital. Do good works to accrue dharma.


Having cosmic capital - dharma we can pay for all that we need. Not having it can mean dire straits, while having it means being saved from dire straits.


Holds the explanation to the 'why' and 'how' of the things of our life.


Different types of karma. There are several different types. Very useful information. Especially that which says karma is negotiable.

Katancy (superior karma of the awakened), kama-duro (non-negotiable), karma-saya (links due to sex).


Karma is processed at different levels.   

Processed on the level of: the individual, a family, a nation, a planet etc.


It has a mechanical aspect and a negotiable aspect.

Divinely administered. Divine Tribunal, with 42 judges and the high Priest Anubis - the 43rd judge.


By contacting the Divine aspect of Karma we can modify circumstances. 


Karmic instruments. Don't become a karmic instrument which is used by the Law to make others to suffer.


Karmic circumstances which are: illness, delays, impediments, difficulties, conflicts are the vehicles of karma.


Karma has a special flavour, through which we can easily recognize that we are under karma.


Karma operates in time and space. We see this perfectly in recurrences.


When we work on ourselves we open up a new karmic line for ourselves, distinct to our present mechanical line of not working on ourselves.


If we are sick, work to heal others to accrue the merit to heal ourselves.


To find balance we need to get unbalanced first then we can find balance knowing what unbalanced is like.


Karma is a medicine for the soul. It is not an oppression or punishment but a medicine to bring us back to balance.


There is no one punishing us but ourselves. If we are always balanced karma will never touch us.


We mainly get karma for what we say and do. We don't get physical karma for our thoughts. We with our thoughts though initiate certain internal processes that later can become feelings and actions and then karma or dharma results.


So important it is to learn from our own karmic processes.


We fully complete the karmic process when we learn where the pain is and why it is there. Then we pay knowingly and we won't repeat that conduct or action or say those words. Karma makes us conscious.


Karma shows us the truth of unity. We hit someone. It is not long before we are hit back exactly the same. Showing us to hit someone is to hit ourselves.


We need to learn to trust in Justice. If we are wronged leave it to the Law. All human beings are affected by justice and have these issues of justice affect their lives at some point. This point is valuable wisdom to all of us. If only we are able to trust that is. Karma teaches us trust.


Don't take justice into your own hands. Trust in it and leave it to the powers which are above to solve/balance.


The main fight with karma is light. Not being able to see. Karma confuses and blinds us. That is really where the main suffering is, in not knowing, in not seeing. Awakening our consciousness is the main remedy for karma.


Because we don't see the cause, we think we are being punished. We feel life, nature, people, God are all against us. But it is not life, people or God but it was our own selves. All because we can't see.


The three best ways to pay karma are awakening, transmuting and uniting.


In unity there is balance. Perfect stability or equipoise or balance.


All three factors combined together pay the maximum. Though the first factor of mystical death pays the most of all three.


Karma is round. Just like time is round. Because when there is karma it must come back to us. If it were not round, say it were linear we would escape from it. Karma uses the roundness of time.


Balance is not an amorphous thing. It is not to be between two opposites but to chose one and remain at the centre of that chosen option.


We have most of our karma from past lives. That is the most important karma to pay. It takes precedence over the karma in this life.


It is a good sign when we see the debts from this life coming to us to be paid. Meaning we have cleared a lot of karma from the past.

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).
