Affirmative Psychology Notes - (4748)

Introduction

This post are all the notes I took during an online class given by m.m.m. I prefer to attend classes physically, however as everything has two sides, an online class means I can type notes straight into a post and have it published the minute the class ends.  


Notes

The psychology of Affirmation in Gnostic terms is the psychology of 'yes' to the Inner Being.


This affirmative psychology is aligned with the Holy Affirming. 


The 'Holy Affirmation' is affirming: the Inner Being, the work and life. It covers the three realities of the Being, the path and life.


The opposite of the Holy Affirmation is the mechanical 'no' of the "I".


The Holy Affirmation is of the Father in secret and the Holy Denying is of the Intimate Christ.


The no of the "I" is a double negation. It is a 'no' by itself and it is a 'no' to the Inner Being. Whereas the Holy Denying is a 'no' the "I" but a yes to the Father in secret.


The Holy Affirmation is to live with the Inner Being and through the Inner Being. It is the spiritual symbiosis.


The sins of the soul are the corruptions of atoms of the consciousness. It is not the "I", it is something beyond the ego. We create egos because of these corrupted parts of the essence.


The affirmative psychology is NOT to affirm the "I", any "I".


To help us in not affirming any ego we need a strict diet with all that is negative.


Affirmative psychology seeks to polarise the essence fully with the Inner Being. 


We need to know our identity as a soul. We are an essence in a human body. This means that we respond to life on two fronts: as an essence and as the essence of a Monad.


We fall into error when we forget who we are: an essence of a Monad. Because we forget that we lose respect for ourselves and go into activities that are not proper of an essence of a Monad.


We are really two people doing the same thing together, the essence and the Inner Being. Two parts involved in the same activities of life. This is the second aspect: the spiritual symbiosis.


The third important aspect of the Affirmative Psychology are the four columns of: Love, Hope, Faith and Trust.


We need to BE those four columns. We need to LIVE those four columns. To be and live those four columns we need to affirm them from moment to moment. 


We need to cultivate these four powers. Love for the Being, Hope for the Being, Faith in the Being and Trust in Being. 


These values are abstract and also practical. We need the abstract aspect to be universal all the time, everywhere and for everyone. The practical aspect is towards specific things in practical life.


To work with the affirmative psychology find time during your day to remember your Inner Being. Keep that connection during the day as often as you can without getting tired.


The second way is to close the doors to the ego. Close the doors to negativity. 


There are areas of our life where we need to affirm these four columns and close the doors to negativity.


Number one is to affirm ourselves as a soul. Remember we are a soul and then affirm ourselves as a soul. 


Affirm our work in the face of the events of life. Think positively about our work. This means displace any negative thought or feeling about our work. Believe in our work, trust our work and have faith in our work.


Love and cherish our work. Do not allow anything or anybody to come in between you and your work. Any ego is an opposite value to your Being. 


Affirm the work in ourselves and in others as well. This is very important.


Don't put yourself down. You will succeed, you will accomplish your destiny in the Being. 


We are not aware of the effects that our negative thinking has on our body, especially our brain.


We can with our thinking and will-power project a force about 20 metres in front of us that changes circumstances making things positive.


Whatever we are going through do not give up. Pray to your Inner Being and ask how we can live together with our Inner Being. We have to come to the positive side. An essence can do miracles when the Being is present.


Atman says: "take charge of your human life in an impeccable manner and we will provide, the will, the consciousness and spiritual help.". This is spiritual symbiosis.


The word of the highest parts of our Inner Being is 'yes, yes, yes". Kether is the world of infinite possibilities.


Every event has a hidden side, where there is a virtue just waiting for us to activate. When in a difficult moment, go inside, go to the Inner Being and ask show me hidden side of this event and discover what is the virtue to develop.


Trust is to "stick to your guns". Trust in the Being is to "stick to your guns" especially when it comes to matters of the spirit.


Self-remembering is impossible without the four columns in the Being and through the Being. When we are these four columns we never accept negativity!


These four columns must become 'self". As in trust in Being and in myself, love for ourselves as in the way of self-respect and love for and in the Being. Hope in our Being and hope that we can do it. Faith is faith in ourselves and faith in our Being.


We live our life with the Being and inside Being.


Trust your Inner Divinity and trust yourself. We are doing this together, us and our Inner Being. We are co-participators. We both co-operate.


As a human being we are always wrong. As an essence with awakened consciousness we are always right.


Dying in ourselves while we are married is the best demonstration of love for the other person. 


There comes a moment when we are more used to being dead than alive. This is the essence of the third factor (sacrifice for humanity) in order to serve humanity better and better.


Kether is the world of infinite possibilities. The word of Atman is: "yes, yes, yes"! This is affirmation.


In conclusion it means to always have a positive state of consciousness. Always go to the side of the Being.

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).
