Life does not see the Path - (4190)

This post is about the contrast between life and the path in people and in relationships.


Normally in life we relate life to life. But when we start our esoteric studies we add a new dimension to our lives. This new dimension is the path.


It takes a while to add this new dimension and a bit more time to embrace it.


Before or even while we are in the process of adding this new dimension to our life we normally don't see the path in people we tend to see life in people. Then when it comes to relationships we tend to see the potential for life in another person but not so much their potential for the path.


Of course this is so normal because we are in life.


We may see that another person does not have certain qualities in life and we feel disappointed. We feel disappointed because our centre of gravity is life for now.


When we begin to change our centre of gravity to the path the qualities another person has in the path and for the path become more important and more valuable to us.


We can actually have certain qualities in the path and not have the same quality in life. For example a person can be very punctual in working on impressions and the manifestations of the ego in him or herself but in life can often not be very punctual. While our centre of gravity is life we don't see the path octave of the quality, we only see the life octave of the quality and if it is lacking in life we feel disappointend.


We can teach ourselves to see the path in others. We will when we are more path than life, but even if we are more life we can start to do that, because doing that will accelerate us becomming more path - that is shifting our centre of gravitty to the path.


After a while we come to learn that the best way to relate is path to path. This is really the best. Relating path to life is not really that good, too many difficulties. 


The first relationship that we should have before a relationship with anyone to do the path is a relationship with the path. We need to forge our own relationship with the path before anything else.


That makes a lot of sense. Because both will work for the path and help each other on the path. The qualities of the path such as the respect for each other's work will be present. The resepct for the work of the three factors will be present and for the work that each one does in each factor. There won't be criticism, scpeticism and depreciation for the work of any of the three factors - there will be support. The motivation helping each other to work will be present. The love for the path will be present. If there is love for the path there is love for each other and love for others looking and working for the path. Each other will sacrtifice happily for the benefit of each other's path rather than demand from the point of view of life and drag one back to life.


If both have a relationship with the path the better it will be for their paths and their life together.

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).
