Three Minds in Relationships - (4491)

This post presents some notes on the how the three minds that Master Samael teaches every human being, work within human relationships. 


Just to reacquaint any readers: Three minds: sensorial mind, intermediate mind and inner mind.


The sensorial mind is concerned with data from the five physical senses. The intermediate mind works with belief and concepts and the inner mind works with the consciousness and essence.


There are also three types of love which corresponds to the three minds. They are sensorial love, emotional love and conscious love.


The egos or "I's" that we have all use the sensorial and intermediate minds. They hang out there and they do not use the inner mind. Only our consciousness uses the inner mind.


Sensorial Mind

So we may relate to another person, like or even 'love' another person because of the senses. Because they are healthy and good looking, have a stable and well paid job that affords a continuous supply of nice healthy food, a nice roomy space to live, a comfortable healthy lifestyle where taking part in pleasant leisure activities and going on interesting holidays etc. is a frequent occurrence. We know though this doesn't last and doesn't mean much when the egos come out. 


This is the sensory mind relating. It takes relationships all through the senses and likes what pleases our senses and also what pleases our particular psychology related to our senses. The latter is very important - there exists our particular psychology that deals with our senses.


A good but crude example of this type of relationship is a relationship that is sustained based on money and sex. Some relationships are centred around eating, some around partying, some around drinking, some around sports and outdoor activities and some on social circumstances etc. etc.


Intermediate Mind

The intermediate mind processes a relationship using beliefs. Beliefs such as: the other person will bring us security, that the other person will bring us protection, that the relationship will complete us, that the relationship will fulfill us, that the relationship alone will give us heaven, that the other person loves us and we love them, that life will be better, that there is no one else for us etc. 


All the above are good beliefs but they are only beliefs at the end of the day. The intermediate mind has the property of believing very strongly. 


The intermediate mind can also believe the opposite of these very intensely also, making our life very difficult.


There are other more egoic beliefs that go with a relationship as well. Such as those to do with appearances: looking good together, some kind of status or success of being in a relationship or being married, having achieved something, having something etc. 


We have so many concepts of love and relationships and these concepts are handled by the intermediate mind.


There are also things of the intermediate that are pleasing to it and they are of a psychological nature such as the feeling or belief of being important, being esteemed, being distinguished, being in control etc.  These things are not of the senses but of a different quality. Of a quality that the intermediate mind works with. 


The interesting thing about all these things is that in a second they can all be gone. Because they were beliefs. For those to be real they would have to come from the consciousness of both people and what comes from the consciousness does not disappear.


Inner Mind

When any relationship enters the inner mind there is basically the trust that there is a real love. That trust is a knowing of the consciousness and that brings peace.


That trust which is a knowing that brings peace, dispels insecurity, jealousy, self-love and self-importance quite easily. Making the relationship dharmic.


When a relationship has reached the inner mind there is respect and freedom. There is also flexibility and a great capacity to handle the different and ever changing circumstances of life.


When a relationship reaches the inner mind there is the direct knowledge that we love or we don't really love. Because the beliefs have been moved past.


What is in the inner mind will last and is not all gone in a few seconds.


Sometimes it is the other way around that the intermediate mind hangs onto a relationship but the inner mind knows that it is of no use.


Relationships can take take a long time to reach the inner mind. Sometimes karma blocks this from happening.

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).
