Introductory Notes on Individuality

Introductory Notes on Individuality - (4378)

The top part of this topic is sacred individuality. There are really a few different types of individuality.

There are always degrees and degrees of everything. Things are worked out in octaves and octaves. Very few things are like a switch where one day there is nothing and the next day it is all there. There are some things though that are like that but not always. There is always usually some kind of process behind every thing that we develop in the work on ourselves.

So we need to start now working on our sacred individuality. At our level we can certainly do something towards it.

We can say that sacred individuality is achieved totally when there are no "I's". Sacred individuality begins to be achieved in the esoteric sense when we have fabricated the psychological moon. A significant level of development of the sacred individuality is when we have fabricated the golden embryo. In the normal sense of life we are individuals when we think and decide for ourselves and do things only because it makes sense to us to do them etc. etc.

It is also something needed for a successful relationship.

To blend so much into become half of another person is not individuality and this does not at all make for a useful or successful relationship.

Both in a couple must be 1 (i.e. individual), because a true relationships is between two. So two full 1's are needed to make 2. Or we could see it this way that if we are only half of what we really are because we have blended ourselves too much with the other person, when we relate we are half times a half which makes a quarter. Because relationships are always an operation of multiplication not addition. When we relate we cross which is the mathematical operation of to multiply. Two people being less than what they really are makes for their relationship to be less than whole. Thus so many problems.

So for any true relationship to be true and to work it must be between two individuals. Relationships get better and better the greater the degree of sacred individuality has been achieved.

Being an individual is being what you are and holding onto what is yours. Which means living out and speaking out one's truth and not negotiating on what is truly ours.

What is truly ours? Our thoughts, our point of view, our feelings, our merit and dharma, our relationships, what we have honestly worked for, our consciousness, the values of our essence, our essence, of course our egos too...

Individuality starts in the psychological when we can separate from the ego. Being able to separate from fear is a big big part of that work.

To be continued...

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...

Embrace Motor Centre Lingo to Act - (6101)

To overcome the overthinking issue and the lamentation of not doing, we can use a key where we embrace the language of the motor centre. Before we do that we need to know the language of the motor centre. The language of the motor is action, it is doing. It is life in motion. It is starting, it is 'getting stuck into' a task without reasoning. "Get it done!" is the motto of the motor centre. "Let's find out!" is another. The motor centre modus operandi is not reasoning, that belongs to the intellect. So delaying and postponing is the intellect. It's not the motor centre. The motor centre is about doing. The more we just do something when we think of it or feel like no matter what the mind reasons (unless a very good physical reason) the more we are embracing the language of the motor centre. Action without thinking. There has to be thinking but thinking aligned with doing, not thinking against doing. The motor is always doing. Not doing something...
