What's Inside Violence?

What's Inside Violence? - (5167)

Thanks

Thanks for the comment about the post on criticism. There is a lot of violence inside criticism. If I remember right, criticism is an activity from the inferno - something from like Dantean circle 6.

Criticism and Self-Deception

I certainly agree there is a lot of self-deception in criticism. Self-deception in thinking we are caring or helping with our criticism and that we are transforming things or wisely seeing the reality of the other person ad their life cricumstances.

Inside Violence is Retribution

What is inside violence, whether it be mental, verbal or physical?

At a first glance there seems to be so many things behind violence.

I've been thinking a lot about it and there is one factor that so many of my reflections come back to, which is that violence is retribution - it comes down to righting the scales.

I've found that there can't be violence if there is not a real or perceived injury. The more perceived unfair the injury, the greater the resulting violence.

Anger leads to violence. No violence without anger. Then there is no anger without pride. Remember pride is always about the scales - about what is fair.

The violence in criticism comes from pride. A pride that does not think it is fair that another person act outside of their expectations or likes and dislikes or egos. This pride feels injured that its personal rules were not taken into account.

Basically, we see in violence that what it is all about in the end is getting retribution when other means have failed or seem to slow or difficult to go by.

They say a tree is identified or known by its fruit. The fruit is the tree's end result. The end result of violence is getting even. Whether it be mental, verbal or physical it is all about leveling a debt.

To truly avoid violence we have to know how to level debts inside of ourselves without mental or verbal violence that later becomes physical.

Mental violence prepares for verbal violence and verbal violence prepares for physical.

End (5167).

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...

Gnostic View on Vampires and Dracula - (426)

Introduction I came across this passage from Master Samael when reading up about the Earth’s two Moons. I was quite astonished, mainly because I always thought that vampires did not exist or only existed in the Astral as a type of negative entity. However, Master Samael says in the following excerpt that a vampire is a condition that can be unfortunately developed by a human being. He says further that it is a very abnormal and abominable condition, which certainly it is. From Master Samael “Among the most abominable products of Lilith, it is opportune to cite the case of Count Dracula in Russia. This movie personage truly existed, and H. P. Blavatsky comments about him in one of her books. This great female Master stated that such a Count (in times of the Czars) was the Mayor of a certain Russian town. He mortally hated his wife, because vampires are homosexuals; they mortally hate the opposite sex. After...
