There are different types of revolutions and there are revolutions on different scales. The Law of Revolution exists as a legitimate door to break free from stagnation and of becoming stuck under any one of the other laws that have the capacity for duality.  When a Law has the capacity for duality there is the potential to become stuck. The Law of Revolution is a Law that favours the Absolute more directly, as it is the Law that helps essences to return to it. In the Law of Karma - Cause and Effect we can see the duality where it can bring delay, burden, suffering and the opposite too. Because the Law of Karma has a negative side any one of us can become stuck by this law. Hence appears the Law of Revolution to liberate us from having become stuck. The Law of Revolution always points to UNITY as the escape and salvific door way and modus operandi. Many mini revolutions make a great revolution.  Breaking recurrence by recurrence of our "I's" leads to the revolution of brea...

The Law of Return is a tremendous law. A great Law that operates cosmically as well on a microscopic and even smaller scale. It's clearest examples of manifestation can be seen physically in the cosmos and in physical life on a planet. Every cycle that we can witness is due to the Law of Return. Day and night, months, planetary years, sidereal years, the seasons etc. Time is directly derived from the action of the Law of Return. The gap between the return of the sunrise is called by human beings day and night. The mind of human beings divides day and night into 24 hours, and then each hour is divided into 60 minutes and so on, giving us the conventional measurement of time. The Law of Return is round. So much in nature is round. Time is round, our planets are round, much of nature is round or spiraled, our heads are round, our life is round even... The Law of Return is the one that functions to return a process, journey, trajectory back to its original point of departure. The begin...

These three laws are all related. The Law of Reincarnation is the result of the Law of Revolution. When the Law of Revolution works on the Law of Recurrence, the Law of Octaves is activated.  When we decide for something different we are activating the Law of Revolution. Then under the Law of revolution we activate the Law of Octaves which then works on the Law of Recurrence, helping us to transcend recurrences. When the Law of Octaves works on the Law of Recurrence, the recurrences become either more complicated and heavy or lighter and simpler in Octaves or spirals.  The Law of Octaves produces spirals. All the spiral geometries found in nature are due to the Law of Octaves. The Law of Revolution exists primarily as the way to undo and break free from return and recurrence. When we are breaking free we arrive at being free enough to chose to incarnate according to conditions not dictated by karma.  The goal of revolution is to arrive at conscious will. Which is the will...

Links Here are some links to posts in this blog related to the topic of the Three Minds: Why Three Minds Battle Between Sensorial and Inner Minds Intermediate Mind Inner Mind Three Minds and Relationships Introduction We need to know our mind. We need to know how our mind works. To know our mind is to know how we relate to life and how we can better relate to life. We use our mind 24/7 yet there are really few who know it. We need to know how to use it and what it is good for. In our studies we need to know how to best use our mind. This topic gives us this knowledge. Notes The three minds are three layers of the mind. Our mind is like an onion with three layers. With the outer layer being the sensorial mind. We need each of these three layers in life. Due to not knowing about the existence of these minds we use one mind for everything, which is where we go astray.  To live a balanced spiritual life we need to use all three minds within their correct orbit of function. For a normal...

Introduction Importance of knowing our own mind. This topic presents some great truths about our mind, the minds of others and the mind of the cosmos. Knowing these truths makes it possible to better understand our mind,  the way it works and how creation and the Cosmos work.    Notes Our mind is not our brain. There is a vast difference between our mind and our brain. Our mind is not enclosed in our skull. Our mind is much vaster than we think. If our mind were enclosed in our skull we would live in utter darkness. We would not know anything. Our brain is the receptor of the energy we call the mind. Our thoughts are not in our brain but in our mind and our brain receives those mental energies. Our brain interacts with the mind allowing us to hear the thoughts of the mind and also to elaborate thought.  Each of our minds is in the Universal Mind and is part of the Universal Mind. What is in the Universal Mind can also be perceived by our mind. What is in our mind is ...

For example the ego in us has the need to be the best, to capture and hold the most attention, to be the best, to have the best, to be liked the most, to have the most, to receive the best or most from others etc.  From life time to life time, satisfying this need will depend upon time and space. In other words personality. For example, to be the 'best' two hundred years ago living as an Eskimo in the Arctic was to be able to build the biggest iglo in the quickest time and be able to hunt the biggest seals. Now living in Australia, it is to earn seven or more figures and have all that which gives 'status'. This is how the ego in us works. It is the same ego over our successive lives, using the different values of the personality to satisfy its needs. The ego needs the personality to manifest through, and to use as a reference point to determine what in life will give it the food, perceptions and 'senses of' (sense of being, sense of having etc.) that it needs.  ...

We can have a negative perception about people and we may work on that, and we may neutralise it, and with a bit more work even transform it into being good-willed and positive. However a real definite and overall change in perception happens when we get to know them, spend some time with them and join them in their struggles and fights.  Then we really come to understand them and know them...and this is what produces the change in us. The change that is produced in us towards them is a long lasting one which does not easily turn negative, whereas before this, our perception would easily slip back to something that had a negative overtone to it. In conclusion, if we do have a negative perception or concept of a person or group of persons, and we would really like to shift that. Then the way to do it is very easy. Somehow try and help them with something, fight alongside them and then you will surely get to know their values, what they have and who they are in their heart. Not fully...

From a look at the psychology that moves in gangs, relativity and duality jumps out loud and clear. A gang is defined by being a group that hates 'those ones' in the next neighbourhood. Here we see an identity standing in relation to something else, an external something else. Take away the gang in the next neighbourhood and the gang identity disappears. We are like that with our identity, there are elements within us in which we define ourselves based off of something else. The real identity comes from inside of us not depending on anything else. Another element of gang psychology is conditioned love. There are tremendous expectations to perform in favour of the perceived interests of the gang. If one falls short, one is sent straight away into the rank of outcast where it is very difficult to rise out of. This too happens in life, we have all done this to others or have experienced it. Another element is that of a short life. Each gang member knows that they will die soon. Th...

We can only really make someone out to be a monster when we don't know them. When we know a person, we can't make them out to be a monster. Maybe just a difficult or unpleasant person but not a monster.  This is because getting to know a person and the moral responsibility of keeping our normal face when we meet them, dissolves that whole monster like atmosphere that we 'see' about them.   When continue not knowing a person, it is difficult for us to stop seeing them as a 'monster'. End (4635).

There is a certain anger that appears when others point out our defects and make us see our defects and hold us to seeing them beyond our efforts to self-deceive. This anger if we are defined to self-discover and die in ourselves is not helpful. If we surrender to the process and actively participate in it we can benefit mountains. There are times when we have to go through such a dry period of work on ourselves because there is little or no time. The anger appears to protect the ego that has been discovered and also to protect our psychological sense of being all ok with little to change about ourselves and also because we may feel it is difficult to change and we feel lacking in capacity. End (4634).

A good way to work on ourselves is to work our day. That means to work straight away on the things that appear in us to work on. To do retrospections of the day and then work. If we miss this we are behind already. When we can't afford being behind because we needed to have changed yesterday, we have to work this way. End (4632).

In the everyday difficult moments of our life we need self-remembering. They are the times that we really need it, more so than the quiet times. Though we need the quiet times to train for the difficult moments.  We also need the quiet times to make self-remembering a frequent practice so that when the difficult moments come, we will remember to remember. If we are in self-remembering in a difficult moment we can find out what that difficult moment is all about. If we remember ourselves in a difficult moment we can have access to our consciousness and so we can stop ourselves from saying things that make matters worse and more difficult. If we devote time to self-remembering during our day, we do not waste our day and we do not feel like we have wasted it.  End (4633).

Prayer Source of divine joys, direct your actions towards us. Holy Affirming, Holy Denying, Holy Reconciling, transubstantiated in me, for my Being; Holy God, Holy Steadfast, Holy Immortal: have mercy on us. “Fuente de divinos regocijos, dirigid vuestras accio-nes hacia nosotros. Santo Afirmar, Santo Negar, Santo Conciliar, transubstanciados en mí, para mi Ser; Santo Dios, Santo Firme, Santo Inmortal: tened misericordia de nosotros.” (Spanish) Meaning/Commentary - S.A.W "For something He has been called the "Firm Saint", because he can not be defeated. In teh end, He triumphs and then he is covered in glory." "This is a precious canticle to the Three Great Primary Forces of the Universe. These Three Forces constitute in themselves the Father, Osiris, who by unfolding becomes Neith, Isis. In the union of Him and "Her" is our particular Jeshua, our own intimate Jesus Christ, our very own, the one who must enter us (our body) to save us. Very special in ...

When we flirt it is because we are not defined and hence not unified in our position or choice. To flirt means to be in something and then be dabbling in the opposite, or dabbling in something that is not good for what we are in. A lot of our difficulties comes from flirting with the ego.  We are in the endevour of working to dissolve our egos and we find ourselves flirting with the ego. Which really means keeping the ego alive.  Flirting with the ego means to work in its dissolution and then identify with it, strengthening it. When we flirt it is because we have some feelings for what we are flirting with, or because we are not fully committed in all of our centres.     If we stop flirting we save time, energy and we make progress. Of course we start by flirting less, then less again and then even less. As soon as we flirt less we notice immediate improvements! Flirting in any area, is usually brushed off in the mind as being harmless, as just being a one off o...

In our Gnostic work we discover that we can not flirt with the things that are obstacles to the work.  We eventually realise that we have to take one line in all of our centres. Why? Because when we flirt with the obstacles to the work, we stray from our work and end up stuck in the obstacle. For example, when we flirt with life after being more devoted in the work, we end up finding ourselves fascinated with life again.   While we are establishing ourselves outside of the obstacles to the work, we understand for ourselves that we need to be strict with ourselves and adhere strictly to the line of the work. Otherwise our attempts will fail! Often people misjusdge this strictness as fanaticism. But when we are really trying to overcome an obstacle it is not fanaticism. It is just doing what needs to be done to overcome the obstacle, because no other way works. Flirting with the obstacle certainly does not work.  We usually learn this lesson the hard way, and we teach ...

Post Revised: 13/02/2024 The common experience is that we attack others strongly with our mind and then it blows up because the other person gets upset and then we feel sorry and we change our tact, saying that we only want the best for them and that it is only for their benefit that they look after themselves in this or that way etc. When we change our tact we are being honest and natural and we are coming from our heart. This is then when the other person actually listens and understands and something that is new and beneficial to all is created. When we attack we are not honest, because we haven't gone to our heart and consciousness yet. We are only in our mind which is one sided. It only sees the negative that must be attacked, and the negative must be beaten away.  When we do go to our heart and consciousness, we know what we want to say and why. We also see both sides and the different angles involved.  When we are coming from our heart we see and know all of the above m...

Summary of Points Definition of 'a way'. There are Four Ways. Explanation of Each Way. Why the Fourth Way. Fourth Way offers the possibility for Full Development. Definition of School. Four Types of Schools. Gnosis as the Fourth Way and a Fourth Type of School A Way  In the most complete sense of the word, a 'way', we understand to be the knowledge and means to fully develop a human being's human and spiritual potential. Elevating that human being to transcendental states of knowing and being. In a less complete sense, a 'way' is any attempt to develop a human being's psychological and spiritual knowledge, values and powers. This 'way' may be successful, partly successful or not successful, all depending on the knowledge available, and the means employed by the people of that way.  Four Ways  There are four known ways (see definition of 'a way') of spiritual development. 1. Way of the Fakir  2. Way of the Monk 3. Way of the Yogi 4. Fourth...

No doubt the average person ignores the relationship with their Being. Sometimes they are forced to take it into account on a superficial to medium depth level, when things are getting out of hand in their life.  That is not such a good relationship. Because it is a once in a while check-in. We feel as a result of the Gnostic studies, we need a very good relationship with our Being. Not a superficial one but a very deep one.  Any relationship is a value unto itself. As to have a good relationship, requires exercising or investing many high quality values, that combine into one, to form the quality of the relationship. Accepting, trusting and having intense faith in our Being, are very high quality values that make a very good relationship with our Inner Being. How are we relating to our Inner Being is the question. It is so good to ask this question to ourselves every morning.  Sure we see so many errors and many places where we are wayward and are not helping. On a deepe...

When we do not have mastery of our attention, we are nowhere. When we take possession of our attention then we can be. When we take possession, we come into being, into being present, into taking up representation of our Inner Being, upon the stage of life. Conclusion, we have to strive for at least some minutes everyday without fail, to have mastery over our attention. Then strive for longer and longer periods of mastery over our attention. End (4625)

We just have to make self-remembering work for us. The key we are told is our attention. We need to be able to put our attention on our Being and keep it there and after a while of keeping it there, we can perceive, feel and experience things that are not of the ordinary states of consciousness that we normally run our life with. The key I repeat, is to know how to put our attention on our Being and keep it there. To be awake as our degree of free consciouness allows us, we are told, means that our attention needs to cover what we are doing, our psychology and where we are. That is the start but it is not complete. We need to add the moment to that or better still our Being. When I say our Being, I am not saying that image of the heavenly Father that we all have, a magician dressed in robes with a pointy hat up there in a temple somewhere, no not at all. I am referring to our very presence or capacity of being alive, present here in the physical world which indeed comes down from our o...

Usually what we do is attack others using reasoning, saying things like: "that was not thought out well, that was silly, wrong reasons, stupid reasons, why did you do that?". We use reasoning conditioned in duality to make or find what others do and say as wrong or right.  This use of reasoning only creates conflict with others and also within ourselves, because with all of our reasoning we still can't understand why a person said or did this or that.  The thing to do is to comprehend. Master Samael instructs us to stop reasoning and comprehend instead. To comprehend is the beginning of peace... Comprehension unifies and goes beyond duality: right and wrong, and understands why a person did or said that. When we do that we leave the mind behind and go to the heart and we become different people. To comprehend is not to attack. It is put on the shoes of others and know and understand why. Stop attacking with reasoning and understand. That is when the turn around in many si...

We know we are serious about something when we deeply understand that every opportunity counts. Every decision, every action counts. We are serious when we never let an opportunity to change, work or improve to pass us bye.  End (4620).

Humility is to accept our errors. To accept and know naturally what we have and don't have. When we accept naturally we don't feel anything negative or positive about what we don't have and do have. In each person there is a lot of lacking and a lot acquired. To accept what is lacking and not feel inferior or upset or angry is humility. Humility also recognises the consequences of lacking and generates action to consciously and in a balanced manner fill the lack.  The path is about filling in those lacks. The path mercilessly wishes that we fill those lacks. If we are missing the humility to answer the path's constant exposition of our faults and lacks we end up giving up. The path is really for people who have humility. End (4619).  

The decisions we make shape our lives. The good decisions reap rewards for years into the future and the bad decisions do the same - leaving difficulties to be dealt with into the future. Our future rests on the decisions we make today. That is what troubles us the most - making decisions. Anyone's life on the path is about continually making decisions. We won't be able to avoid it. There is duality at every corner of a person's path and that implies making decisions. There is duality outside of ourselves and duality inside of ourselves that we have to contend with. There is life and the work, there are higher and lower values, there is ourselves and others, there is even the choice of one noble sacrifice over another, one good over another and one evil over another... If we have a criteria by which to decide by - it is much easier to know what the right decision is. Going through with the decision is a matter of will and is another thing all together. But first we have to ...

From what Master Samael teaches, it seems that even though a police officer or judge carries out justice, some kind of karma can be accrued. That was the case with one of Master Samael's daughters. Where in a past existence she was a police man that caught and jailed Master Samael after he had committed a serious crime.  Even though Master Samael back then had committed a crime and was apprehended, he suffered greatly.  Perhaps explaining why karmic debts are incurred officers of the Law. The daughter who was that policeman, it was said gave Master Samael a lot of love, repaying back that debt. An amazing thing really, because even though Master Samael was served justice, the policeman still incurred a debt with him. We don't know why, perhaps because the conditions in which Master Samael back then was arrested and jailed, were too harsh. We are not sure. It just goes to show that some professions are really very risky karmically speaking. To be a police officer or a judge in ...

We know that at the core of each ego in us, there is a quality. We know that this quality has been inverted. For example, anger. At the core of anger is force. With anger this force is used negatively, by going against ourselves and others. Essentially in each ego a quality of our essence has been inverted, or in other words, become stuck in one polarity or side.  When a quality is stuck it is said to be botteled and that is what an ego is. Unfortunately when a quality is bottled it will always stay on that one side or polarity. Before a quality becomes inverted it is stolen. The action of stealing values for other interests creates the ego. For example, due to a fear or a desire we steal the value of force to help ourselves to protect that fear or satisfy that desire. After stealing force so many times we end up fractioning a part of our essence's force and bottling it to be stuck in always performing the set function of protecting fear or satisfying desire. That is how we create ...

A centre of gravity is expressed through a relationship of any kind, whether it be with a person, a job, a hobby, ourselves, even a pet. A centre of gravity is a quality that a relationship can acquire. For a relationship to acquire this quality the elements of a centre of gravity must be invested into the relationship. These elements are always: time, energy and attention and the cause is either love or necessity. People in a relationship, often unknowingly, make their centre of gravity the relationship, both in life and in Gnosis. Human beings make their centre of gravity to be something or someone because of love for that something or someone. Whether that be conscious love or another type of love that is less conscious. When we use a less conscious form of love we create a centre of gravity mechanically.   When we work consciously with love, we are able to chose our centre of gravity. When working for our self realisation, we use conscious love to make our centre of gravit...

Communication is a middle value, it is not as such an orginator or motivator value. Communication is a value that supports or expresses an originator value. To just concentrate on communication can be good, however it can produce half-half results when an originator value is missing. If we have consideration for others, we will use the value of communication to assist others. The lesson learnt is to concentrate on the orginator and receiver value of communication. End (4615).

This analogy is useful to understand the unique nature of the path. The strict, high quality control standards of the path, set it a part from so many other 'paths'. We are taught that passing the quality standard set before us, allows us to advance. We learn that the path is about quality, qualifying, refining, purifying to the degree necessary, to open the doors to advance. Ultimately the path represents and protects the Divne in us. It demands from us by Science, that to join the Being we must pass the quality standard of being as the Being is. Life is easy because the innate, ethical and intimate personal quality standards are low. In the path they are high. If we always demand high quality of ourselves in the ethical nature of our inner and outer behaviour, we will be able to align with the nature of the path.  End (4614).

In times gone past there was that sense of honour for the family. Where that sense of honour would stop someone from acting dishonourably in the so many ways human beings can. Now days that sense does not exist. People just act dishonourably and don't concern themselves with the consequences this has for their family name or for the feelings and image of the members of their family. We need this sense physically and where it is of greatest use is to us is when we internalise it. Internalising this sense we think, feel and act honourably so that our Divine Mother will not be trampled upon when She is summoned by the Divine Law to account for our actions. End (4613).

We know that to awaken we must be aware of our attention and using it consciously. We know that when our consciousness falls asleep, it is because our attention has been taken away and is on something else. The key to being aware of our attention is to watch it, which means to divide our attention. One part watching where it is focused and one part focussing on something, such as the activity we are taking part in. So we think, ok 50% on watching and 50% on whatever we are doing. Wrong! 100% on both watching and doing. How? By integrating the attention to cover both or even three elements such as ourselves, place and what we are doing. This is a paradox, but that is how our consciousness works - by paradox. Divide our attention by integrating it over two or three or more aspects.  End (5328).
