Gnostic Wisdom

Master Samael says that if the Being wants His realisation, it is sure that He will achieve it! This is because the Being, our Being is a triumpher! If there is something that the Being wants for Its realisation we can trust that It will get it. End (4939).

How can two opposite things relate to one another? It at first seems that they are so incompatible and there is no way that they can relate, it seems that they should just remain distant or in a state of eternal antagonism. It really seems at times that for the two opposites to relate there has to be some magic at work or something special to make that happen. But life, creation, the cosmos, the consciousness, nature etc. etc. shows us that there is a magic way in which the two opposites can relate and can maintain a relationship. In fact the opposites meet all the time and their meeting makes up a whole. Life depends upon them meeting. That magic reconciling of the two opposites is balance or the consciousness. So in other words when two opposites come together there is an opportunity for consciousness to be put into action, even for consciousness to be awoken and even expanded. A third factor can unite the two opposites. The third factor is the solution, the key of the relationship b...

The real knowing of oneself is not such an easy thing at times. It is really to wonder into unknown territory which at first and for a while until we assimilate it, it is something unnerving. To meet a part of ourselves, previously unknown to ourselves and a part that we don't particularly like.  Master Samael said that the more he rejected evil the more he fell into it. For sure, all unknown to us, are things that dwell in us that are parts that we have always worked against and have always disliked, and have even regarded as doing the opposite of them as being our saving grace.  Of course in really knowing ourselves we mostly pass through many disappointments and disillusions with ourselves. Due to our false self-concept. Of course there are also some pleasant surprises. It is the role of the Typhon Baphomet to show us these sides of ourselves. Of course a deal of force is needed on His part to bring those things out and to organise physical circumstances and internal ones i...

Yes when we suffer there is one or two big egos there but, we are striving and working to displace the suffering. We are naturally observing, comprehending and using our will all that we can. We don't have time to entertain any pass times or idle nonsense thoughts. We are focused on not suffering. We are more in touch with our reality of the frail human condition and of the strength of the spirit. When we are well or normal we allow ourselves to entertain any number useless of idle thoughts about the silliest nonsensical things and we return to our arrogance believing we are invincible and beyond reproach and the Being is a cloudy distant wispy puff of spirit air. Suffering is a paradox there is something unreal there causing us suffering but yet we are more in touch than we normally are with our reality and that of our inner Being. End (4070).

It gets to the point that there is no time anymore for a particular ego, it has to die! So what can we do? Nothing, but get really hard on it. The bottom line is, if we don't get hard on it, sharp and to the point of death on it, it is not going to leave us alone! That's why we fail because we don't maintain our hard line for long enough.  First is to cut its supply of impressions which are its food. There's no way really that we can make any ego die if we keep its food supply going. We get food to the ego in two ways: directly - by receiving the impressions that it asks for or seeks, for example, from people or from media that is created by the ego, and the other way is by receiving impressions indirectly, from ourselves by our thinking and feeling.   With some egos it will be to stop taking the impressions in the same way and thinking and feeling in the same way and for others it will be to stop receiving those impressions altogether. Pray with strong will and determi...

Introduction - Ninth Sphere a Work of Mystical Death The ninth sphere is certainly just not the sexual act, nor is it just transmuting during the sexual act. Well understood, it is a work of mystical death of a profound and serious type.  The ninth sphere is where we face mystical death related to our very primordial and primitive forces. Which are the forces of creation, the forces which are at our very origin. Hence such a work affords us the authentic change as we are working with forces that originate and the ninth sphere is where the forces that originate swirl, simmer, bubble and have their point of activity.  The ninth sphere is ruled by the Typhon. Whenever we are to deal with the Typhon we are dealing straight away with mystical death or psychological work. The Typhon is our psychological trainer. A person who has transmuted all their life can still go to the abyss, because the essence is still fragmented and bottled. Transmuting without death makes a person a bomb re...

Like is cured by the like.  For many issues of our psychological work, this remedy is applicable. The general formula is that of denying any ego in ourselves using what the ego does but in the opposite direction. Cure not caring about others by not caring so much about ourselves and the things in our small world. Cure not loving the work by not loving our vices, comforts, vested interests etc... Cure not loving others by not loving ourselves so much. Cure desire by desiring freedom. Cure egoic suffering by suffering in the essence seeing how we are making our Being to suffer and we will begin to chose not to suffer.    End (4066).

That's how life works doesn't it? The whole of society is upheld by the values of each member.  When the values are not exercised then things begin to break down, laws are broken and crimes committed. All relationships depend on our values. Relationships can't exist or be sustained if values are absent. We can also see that many of our relationships depend on one value much more than any other. Each relationships has a key value. Find it and we have found the key to making that relationship successful and long lasting. It seems that the law of society is that the values are put into practice. Our boss depends on the value of our word, on our honesty, and the worker depends on the fairness of the boss, on the word of the boss, on the direction of the boss, on the understanding of the boss etc. Our Being depends on your chastity, on our love for the work, on our diligence, on our perseverance, on our loyalty, on our humility, on our faith etc. and we depend on our Being's...

A boring post for you all. Don't read it. It is just for my benefit, using this post as a jotting pad. Gnosis is direct knowledge, knowledge gained from direct experience. All true knowledge is learnt this way. As real knowledge comes from the real. Real knowledge appears in anyone when there is direct contact with the realities of life, nature and the cosmos or anything that we wish to truly learn or know. Knowledge is not believing nor is it read about. It is experiencing and living it out. Which is very demanding. It is the point where all of us fail.  All true knowledge wishes that human beings apply it and fuse it into their Being. One of the greatest of all endeavours in human experience is to apply what has been learnt. This is the greatest stumbling block of all human beings: not applying what has been learnt.  To apply what has been heard requires an intense level of yearning, a decisive discipline, intentional departure from excuses, expectations and concepts (many o...

Continuing on from Part 1... It seems we can't ignore the point of the Typhon Baphomet when we visit the theme of the ninth sphere. The Typhon Baphomet is ourselves, well much more than ourselves, but in the simplest sense it is ourselves. To face our Typhon Baphomet is to face ourselves. The most scary thing that we can face is ourselves. The Typhon Baphomet is a devil because we are devils. The work in the ninth sphere we are taught is much more than sex, it is really mystical death. If there is a work to be done there is always learning, changing and establishing the change which is mystical death.  There seems that to descend into the ninth sphere and be successful there, there are several conditions to fulfill. Condition 1: The teachings say we need discipline. That is quite an obvious one. The discipline with one's thoughts, one's emotions and one's motor centre. Disciplined and well trained in transmuting the energies. Condition 2: One also needs, says the teachi...

What a drunkard does besides slowly killing themselves, their wonderful nice liver, is that they submit their own consciousness to the abyss as often as they drink. To wake up the consciousness we need to have our consciousness outside of the abyss. It can only act and help us when it is outside of our abyss. End (4064).

How do we know have love in our Being and we are that love? Logically e can say we are our essence and we are the essence. So we are love. We may know it intellectually but that does not help when the ego appears! We feel the love you may say. Yes, that is a point, but what is better is that we emanate it, send it, radiate it back to the source inside of us! Here's the simple arrow: Feel it > pray it > radiate it > act it. When we act it we know it. This realisation and action is something that cures many wounds from the past in us, displaces the painful egos of self-love and self-importance and weakens them. This knowledge is especially useful to displace those egos mentioned above and any other egos that have the feeling that we are lacking, below, displaced, disapproved, not valued, not appreciated, not valid etc. etc. Always though there is some kind of comparison to feel this way, some reference point... There is also that feeling of not being worthy of love. Such fee...

Continuing on from a previous post... By the very nature of the ninth sphere, it implies the work with sex. However, this work is very extensive and interpenetrating into so much of our nature, so much so that it is a work of facing oneself. The ninth sphere is the world in which we move, it reflects in what we live out.  If we change the way we think, feel and act our ninth sphere changes and the world in which we live changes also. In the ninth sphere we encounter our Typhon. It is actually ruled by our Typhon. So therefore in the ninth sphere that is where we face our passions as they , our instincts, our desires etc.  We steal the fire from the Typhon by transmuting. In our daily life we steal the light through our psychological work. We need preparation really to work in the ninth sphere. The goal is to descend, work there and then ascend. To descend we don't need preparation, to work there and ascend we need preparation. WE NEED PREPARATION!!! Any person, single or marri...

Having the right attitude before anything makes a world of difference. Karma included. Some people can be become very bitter before karma. People can protest and complain. People can hate karma, even come to hate the word and even hate the Divinities that administer it. The truth is the Divinities that administer the karma are not punishing us. It is us that are punishing ourselves.  We did it to ourselves. Because we did something, the poor Divinities of the Divine Law have to work out a way for us to suffer our consequences. Karma is mathematical, it is exact. Justice is a fine line remember. We can trust that we won't pay more than we owe. Part of the correct attitude is to actually pay not to add more debt to ourselves. We do this majorly by continuing to act wrongly accumulating more karma, when we know we are doing wrong. To do wrong knowingly has a higher price than doing with ignorance. Master Samael says complaining makes things worse before the Divine Law, as it shows tha...

Let's get real and put aside some immaturity.  Gnosis doesn't tell us to do anything. It tells us why we shouldn't do something and it tells us what will happen if we do that something. That's all. Gnosis is knowledge, it's just letters on paper, and paper has never hurt anyone, well a paper cut. The potential danger is in what the person does or doesn't do with that knowledge. Gnosis doesn't stop you from doing something, it just tells you to consider it for this and that reason. Its always up to us to decide and its for us to deal with the consequences or reap the reward if we get it wrong or right. End (4057).

Introduction Some notes about what for me anyway was always a very enigmatic topic in Gnosis. Notes 🔘A sphere is circle projected into three dimensions or four dimensions or more to form a hypersphere. A circle is a unity, something complete and closed. Making a sphere to be a globe or in other words a world. Because a world, taking after a circle is something complete in itself, with its own functions and characteristics.  🔘So the ninth sphere by rights is a world. A whole world. A world that we can enter, with its own special functions and characteristics, of which this post is about. 🔘A world that is the origin of other worlds, beasts, men and Gods. 🔘A world that we actually descend into, not a world that we rise into, but one that we descend into. 🔘A world that we have come from and a world we can descend into in order to encounter ourselves, in our very base primordial nature, i.e. which turns out to be our base passions and instincts to reproduce, sleep, eat, survive, ru...

Our level of the Being is elastic, it varies depending on what we do. But the variation is not what interests us, it is the base level that interests us. We need to raise our base level. What is our base level? Hard to know fully. Well we can glimpse it based on our internal company. What is going on inside of ourselves - how much negativity is there in our thoughts and of what order, of what type? We may pray and our level of Being rises, but then we get angry and start swearing and our level goes down again. What is our base level? Anyway the way we raise our level of Being is by lifting that base, which is done through lots of self-observation, lots of comprehension and lots of effort to grab onto the change and make it stick, that is make it ourselves. Changing the negativity of our thoughts is a good start in relation to any or all of the egos. To bring in the values and use them to modify our thoughts to be in accordance with those values. This will give us much contrast to use t...

An interesting point is this one.  Within the fascinating or hypnotising power that lust has is this element of idolising sex. If the hypnotic power of lust is somehow diminished the idolising of sex will also diminish. This element explains why so many people imitate in their sexuality the impressions that are propagated here and there. No one would care or even think about imitating something that was not of a idol like status. Anything that is not the Being in ourselves is a false idol. The real and true idol is really our Inner Being.  There are people and that is all they talk about, because they idolise the sexual and all its ramifications, offshoots, implications and connotations etc.  There are people that most of their life revolves around sex. There are people where their inner life is nearly all about sex and the sexual, nearly all that they say has a double meaning related to sex. It is the origin of our existence and its energy of creativity and life is every...

Post Revised: 07/02/2024 Lust is sexuality without that benevolence of sincere good willed consideration of the other person. Because lust does not have this element of benevolence and sincere good willed consideration towards the other, it has the opposite element instead. Which is an element that has the quality (varies in degrees) of being selfish, ill-willed, subtly against the other in various guises, etc. All the various branches of infra-sexuality take their origin from this element - in fact all of infra-sexuality has the element of being against oneself or the other, whether it be subtle or expressly amplified or very strangely amplified.  This element gives lust that strange flavour which is also very similar to the flavour of the ego that is about losing the sexual energy, which deep within it carries ill-will, as losing the sexual energy is an act of ill-will towards one's Inner Being. The conscious knowledge of this one element is very powerful and gives a person, if t...

Here's something very short, about the different vehicles that a Monad can have and what happens when one successfully realises the Monad. The other vehicle that didn't realise gets absorbed by their Monad at some point. The wisdom from their experiences and their essence gets absorbed by their Monad, when the physical vehicle ceases. Their karma is dealt with by the Monad and the one that worked to get the realisation. The egos that those vehicles had - I don't know what happens to them, I don't know how they are dealt with. This information comes from a book where the author himself, he says asked Master Samael back in Mexico himself directly and that was Master Samael's answer. End (4054).

A selfish person needs to step outside themselves. Quite true right? All the weaknesses are selfish right. They all enclose one inside oneself. All the egos have their selfish part and the ego of selfishness has more parts strongly dedicated to selfishness.  The remedy to any of these weaknesses is not staying locked inside oneself, but making an effort to get out of oneself.  We don't help, we don't move, we don't practice, we don't pray, we don't speak, we don't laugh, we don't smile, we don't cook, we don't care etc. all because we are inside of ourselves following some egoic logic and consequently being detained by it.  We are lazy and selfish because of some logic we are stuck in and detained by.  Mainly to get outside of one's mind is what we need to get out of. Because our essence is actually stuck in our mind and it needs to float out of there. A bucket of cold water on one's head does wonders. To step outside of the egoic argument, o...

There's no other way if we want to work in the great task of freeing ourselves from the mind, than to work moment to moment. Starting off with the thoughts that really bother and then going subtler and subtler. A high state of alertness is needed combined with sincere effort. To treat the mind globally, and trying to be separate from it as a whole, no matter what ego is expressing or thinking teaches us many skills that help us in this task.   Each ego uses the mind and the mind has its set functions. If we recognise these functions and free ourselves from these functions we do a lot to free ourselves from the influences of the different egos.   End (4051).

Why not set what we love free inside of us.  Love, after all if it is a love that is real, will come back to us. At some point, at some place, it will return. Take this as a universal truth as it is not connected to anyone or anything, just as a truth for the consciousness. They are not my words they are something m.m.m said quite a number of years ago. End (3820).

While in a negative state due to this or that happening or this or that impression we can often think: "why do others have it so easy and it is so hard for me". Well we must have done something, there's a reason for everything and thinking along those lines is totally of no use as it takes away from us the time and energy that we need to solve our difficulty. Nothing good will come of such negative thinking. Positive thoughts and thinking is what helps us much more to bring to our essence and brain the light that will be helpful in the situation we are in.  After all such thoughts don't change the situation we are in, do they? End (4049).

Man is a bridge and woman is a bridge. This is only seen as such, when we love the Being above all else... A bridge is not there to get stuck on... Sure we can walk along the bridge for a while and stop to admire the view that surrounds us, but ultimately a bridge is there to walk over to the other side. The other side being the Inner Being. Obviously if both man and woman make their Being first and love the Inner Being the most, they will understand each other, coincide on all that is for the Being and love each other also. How can one not love that which is taking one closer to one's primordial love? It's not wrong to tell someone to love their Being above all else. We are mortal yet their Being is immortal and their immortal Being will always be able to be with them in their intimate depths. Their Being will never abandon them... Their Being is their reality, their home, their inner life and light, their inner Law, their love, their  source, their everything... Their Being i...

We have to make our consciousness to work. No matter who or how we are, we need to find our way to make it to work. It seems at times that our consciousness is so slow to work or just doesn't want to work. Our efforts to make it work is what helps. As well as our insistence. The best of us comes from our consciousness. What the consciousness knows is right. What the consciousness sees is right. What the consciousness decides is right and because it is right it is brings order, organization and peace. What the consciousness understands holds true. In the end with our consciousness if we want to know something that is beyond the senses and the mind we have to use our consciousness. Insistence and persistence, don't give up.  It takes its time that is the only thing. I have found that the effort or intention in relation to the consciousness is what counts the most. End (4047).
