Generally we don't Like Humility - (4099)

We don't like humility because of the concepts we have about it. 

Let's see our concepts then. It's an interesting exercise to review all of our concepts. This post in some way is a very short review of some common concepts. 

The proof is that hardly anyone has read this post, typically posts on lust get 40 to 50 reads while these humility posts have gotten a third of that over the same time.


We see it as being submitted or having to submit to something that we don't like or want.

When we like something there is no feeling of submission. There is no feeling of having to be humble. When we don't like something then we feel the pain of having to be submitted. In this case the wise thing to do is to look deep into what we are submitted to and find goodness in it or value in it so as to like it more and more. If we can't then it is karma and we just have to pay it, that's all. It will end. Or just change it. 


It seems that we are never going to be able to come out of that of being submitted, that we will be controlled forever and all our quality of life will be gone.

Karma can double us over, however karma has a start and an end, always. That is a karmic concept, when there is no karma or little karma there is freedom. That is freedom in the service. One can only really feel freedom in the service when one has love in their heart for others. The selfish people unfortunately deny themselves this kind of freedom, they are always trying their best to get rid of people to experience their freedom. A very narrow way to live. Totally dependent on circumstance forever, this life and the all the ones to come.

Anyway if it is karma we are paying and through paying we will be free. 


We think it means to be a servant all of our life. 

We think this because we want to be served all of our life. We in reality both serve and are served. To want only one is not balance. Life always tends to balance.

To our Being we are a servant here in terms of the physical world all of the time nearly. We are Its instrument, not the other way around.


To be humble is to not be appreciated. We just have to accept the second best.

We can't always be number one. But we can always make the Being number one to us. Even we can make others of high priority. That we can determine that we can control. Trying to control others to make us appreciated or number is an impossible task, one that if we try to achieve we will only set ourselves up for failure.


End (4099).

  1. Thank you so much for sharing these reflections, they have been extremely helpful and we have seen what you have spoken about inside of us. Also, thank you for what you said about concepts. Those mistaken concepts are the misperception of the trapped and sleeping essence aren't they? We really look forward to re-reading these posts on humility and working on all the things they shed light on.

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).
