Practical Mysticism - the Completing Power of Gnosis - (3464)

Practical mysticism consists in making our Inner Being our centre of gravity. This is our entry into the ontological world.


All the works of mysticism we can say, are the works of making our Inner Being the centre of gravity.  This takes much grit, yet it was (in Lemuria millions of years ago) and should be the most natural thing.


To make our Inner Being our centre of gravity, we will gradually end up making our Inner Being our central reference point by which we run our inner and outer lives.


The better the relationship with the Inner Being becomes, the more it will be a centre of gravity. So much so that it will become the one reference point for our life. The key is to make our relationship with the Inner Being great!


The works of practical mysticism are also about investing the values of faith, love, hope and trust in the Inner Being. As these are the four columns upon which all deep and rich relationships are founded.


Practical mysticism is essentially about cultivating a rich and intimate relationship with the Inner Being.


In exactly the same way that we cultivate a good relationship with another human being, we can work to cultivate a good relationship with the Inner Being.


For a relationship to be good, we have to have some faith in it. That is we believe in it's goodness, its future, it's quality and mutual benefit. 


As we believe in a human relationship, we must believe in the Inner Being. We always come to love what we believe in. We will never love something we don't believe in. 


Faith in something is strength. Having faith in the Inner Being makes the relationship with the Inner Being strong. 


For a good relationship we trust in the quality of the relationship and in the other person. We must trust the Inner Being and be able to surrender certain worries, fears and matters of the future to the Inner Being.


For a good relationship there is hope. We have hopes and yearnings for any relationship we value. We have hopes for what the relationship can do. The same applies to the relationship with our Inner Being. We must come to hold hope and yearnings for our Inner Being and ourselves all together for a bright future together.


For a good relationship there is always love. There are many ways of love and all I can say that we have to find our way of loving the Inner Being (ourselves) which is always done by giving love. Don't wait to give love to the Inner Being and yourself together. Give it now!


This work of practical mysticism completes us - makes us whole. As it encompasses the four worlds which are: the physical world, the psychological world, the esoteric world and the ontological world.


This is one the great gifts that Gnosis gives us!



With this work we will never feel alone anymore. We are a universe, and a universe is full of beings. We are not all alone in the world. We are certainly not a lonely leaf being blown here and there by the winds of life. We are a universe that has a purpose and a destiny. 


Intimate prayer is the way to enter the works of practical mysticism, and it is up to our inner sense of responsibility and integrity before our Inner Being to follow through with what we offer in prayer before the many events of daily life.


End (3464).

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).
