Curiosity an Animal 'I' - (3974)

In the book "Treatise of Revolutionary Psychology" Master Samael says that curiosity is actually an animal "I".


This always surprised me and actually helps me at the same time. One sees lust, laziness, gluttony, anger, violence etc. all as animal but curiosity somehow does not quite seem that way. However, looking more closely we see that it is.



Observing animals we see that so many of them are curious. Especially cats. So often we also see that their curiosity gets them no good result.


Seeing that it is an animal characteristic we have the motivation to do something about it, or at least we can get suspicious about it - thinking that it is something that is not all that beneficial.


There is a difference between being curious and inquisitive. An inquisitive person inquires in a natural way to find knowledge, to know for the sake of knowledge, of understanding, but a curious person looks, searches to find out for some hidden reason, out of some suspicion usually, out of some distrust, out of some of suspicious hunch, out of some desire, out of some kind of boredom, out of some emptiness etc. etc.


Curiosity feeds lust and is a really terrible servant or ally of lust. Maybe because of curiosity we would not have fallen or have the karma we have or have the lust we have either.


End (3974).

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).
