Astral Scenario of the Trial of the Elements

Astral Scenario of the Trial of the Elements - (4411)

We are taught that the trial of the elements: air, fire, water and earth take place internally in the astral world. We know the astral world is mostly about emotions. We also know that emotions, the way we feel towards something are a big part of our relationship to anything. So in the astral world we can see very well how well or not we relate to something.

The test or trails of the elements are really to see how well we relate to the positive qualities of the elements. To see how well we relate to these positive qualities our feeling towards them would need to be seen. There is no better place than the astral to see or assess this.

The scenarios of the tests of the elements all seem to have a common patter. They are scenarios where we are immersed in the element. We are thrown into the ocean left to swim or drown, find ourselves between two mountains crashing in on us, thrown into a deep well free falling in the air and then with the test of fire thrown into a heated and volatile situation being accused of something we did not do.

So then being immersed in these elements if we are scared or run away, shows us that we do not relate well with the qualities that we need to pass the tests. For example, with the test of water if we are strong in adaptation then we won't fear being thrown into the water, because the water is adaptation and in the astral we relate with the emotional quality of things including water, not physical water and the emotional quality is adaptation. The same applies with air, fire and earth.

If we panic and become scared stiff it shows that we don't relate well with the positive qualities of the elements just yet, and so we fail the tests waking up straight away having being sent back to our body.

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).
