Purity Posts: 2.) Examined - (3889)

I think that is helpful to look at purity first from a scientific point of view.


In science what is pure is something that is all one substance. A gold bar is 100% pure means that the bar is all gold. Every single last atom of it is an atom of gold. 100% water means that in a sample of said water there are only H2O molecules nothing else. Purity is a measure of the degree of oneness or how completely one thing something is, or a measure of how many foreign bodies are not in something.


It may be helpful to see purity as crystal clearness. Imagine water, the purer the water, the more crystal clear it is. Imagine an emerald, a ruby, a piece of quartz, a diamond or a sapphire the less impurities these stones contain the clearer and more sparkling they are. Purity, light and transparency seem to always go together. More about that later on.


We are always looking for purity in nearly all instances. We look for purer water, for purer air, for purer food, for purer minerals etc. What is pure is usually more potent, more effective, and rarer, as extra work and special circumstances are often needed to make something pure. In chemistry for example, what is pure is highly sought after. The purer a substance the more potent will be its natural properties. So purity allows something to be more of its essential nature. A pure something can do the most it possibly can whereas an impure something is hampered from reaching it maximum. What is purer has a higher value, and that is why with physical things what is purer is more expensive. 



Purity is a power. Within a human being as within a crystal it is a power. More on that later.


Purity always refers to containers or to things that can accept foreign bodies. Such as water, such as solids, such as our mind and our heart. Fire does not accept inside of it anything foreign. It acts on foreign things and transforms them into its nature, i.e. burns it. The sprit is like fire, so is the consciousness.


In relation to us as human beings, purity concerns our crystal clearness. Which has to do with first and foremost our consciousness which is also very related to our essence. 


Purity can not exist without consciousness. The consciousness itself is something pure, i.e. there is no other elements to it - only consciousness. However, when our consciousness is clouded over by something foreign which is not conscious, we in that moment lose purity and we take takes on degrees of impurity.


There are really many different instances of purity that can be present in a human being. Globally, in a moment, in an area of life, in mind, in heart etc. Subsequent posts will explain this more clearly.


What concerns us immediately is purity in the moment with the use of our consciousness. Read the following posts for more explanation.

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...

Want to Know Your Cosmic Ray or the Ray of Your Being? – (1088)

What is a Ray? A ray is a certain line of unfolding from the Absolute. The primordial and most fundamental ray is the Okidanokh ray that provided and continues to provide the means for creation to unfold outwards from within the absolute. When a Monad (your Being for example) or as Master Samael sometimes refers to it - a divine virginal spark, leaves the Absolute to enter into creation, it does so in accordance to a certain ray. This ray is part of the order of creation and this order has been established originally by the Absolute itself. The ray upon which a Monad or our Being has emanated from the Absolute pertains to a certain place and function in creation. This function in turn determines some of the characteristics, wisdom, learnings and nature that a Monad (our Being) expresses in creation. For example, take master Samael Aun Weor, his Monad Samael belongs to the ray of Force, and for sure such a Being would possess certain characteristics and a nature that per...
