Ethics of the Path what Distinguishes It - (4163)

It seems after some exposure to other spiritual schools and systems that a spiritual kind of ethics is missing.


There are so many spiritual movements that speak about 'a learning', 'a journey', 'neither right or wrong', 'all in the universe', 'the flow', 'what feels natural' etc.


But what of an ethics, they seem not to have a really clearly defined set of ethics. Yet the principles and laws of any ethics are always clear...


They really don't like abiding by an ethics. A loose or looser kind of ethics yes, they are comfortable with that and talk about that, but who can guaranteee the sincere seeker that that looser kind of ethics is the ethics of the path or an ethics sufficient enough to walk the one secret path back to the Inner Being?


Ethics may seem to be so rigid...


Often that perception that ethics is rigid produces an unpleasant feeling of restriction: "I can't do that, what?". Most of the time it is an egoical desire that wants to do that anyway...we may know that or we may not know that...


What is the real freedom? The freedom to do what the ego or essence or anything in us wants to do? Some may say yes and of course it is. But a realer, deeper freedom is one where you can chose not to suffer! And you don't suffer! 


Mind you if what we chose caused suffering or an imbalance we will suffer if not now but later...


In some tantra schools there is the knowledge of transmutation and practical techniques to do it, but little of ethics. 


There is the thinking: "what is free is right, and less ethics means freedom, there is no right or wrong only energy, therefore less ethics is good and the right comfortable way" - "everything is all ok, transmute mostly but losing some is ok". If you are a man you can enjoy a few different women etc. there's nothing wrong with that". But who can say such a method or way will lead one to the freedom in the long run?


I think anyone with a bit of knowledge of the esoteric teachings can see that when the Real Being is free from karma then comes more of the real freedom...


Being free to do what you want completely and then win the abyss and continue to try and do what you want is not freedom, because in each of moment we spend in the abyss we are losing life. Just like when are identified and we descend into our abyss we are not free and we are losing the enjoymernt of our real life free as an essence.

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).
