Conscious Relationship to Pain & Suffering

Conscious Relationship to Pain & Suffering - (4901)

Pain and suffering just like sexuality, love, balance, energy, consciousness, health etc. are real unavoidable issues that we must face and accept. The better we know how to relate to these areas of life and ourselves the better for us and others.

This post presents some guidelines on relating well with pain and suffering:

1.) Pain is unavoidable in this world with the physical body we have.

2.) Suffering which is psychological is optional. We can chose to modify it.

3.) A bit of suffering at first which saves much more suffering later is worth gold. Always choose gold.

4.) Everything costs and sometimes suffering and pain is the price. Be prepared to experience pain and suffering to get what you desire. No gain, no pain as they say. Fully accept the suffering and pain required.

5.) There is intentional suffering and mechanical suffering. Mechanical suffering gets you nowhere but intentional suffering used well (intelligently/consciously/) elevates you.

6.) Avoiding suffering creates more later. It is a mistake.

7.) The truth seems as though it will make us to suffer but after a short time it frees us.

8.) When pleasure passes over a the line of balance pain enters. It is painful to correct the unbalances made with pleasure.

9.) Suffering can be transformed into learning, growth and love for others, which helps others to avoid suffering.

10.) Don't allow pain and suffering to become part of our identity. We are not pain nor suffering. We are an essence whose unique and on real identity is found in the Divine Being that we derive from.

11.) Avoiding telling your truth brings suffering to us and others.

12.) Not being what you are or are capable of brings pain and suffering to us and others.

13.) Raise above good and evil and suffering will be much less.

Friends are about relating well. If we can make friends with pain and suffering we are relating well with both. Our friends bring us something and we bring them something. Pain and suffering try to teach us and when learn from them we alleviate them of their burden.

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).
