Ego is Based on the Principle of Fornication (Samsara)

Ego is Based on the Principle of Fornication (Samsara) - (5604)

There is such a strange thing in life where it goes that we can spend years working hard to develop something and in a few minutes or even seconds it can be all gone. This applies to material things and esoteric intangible things.

This is one of the qualities of Samsara.

We can spend our life building and paying for our dream home yet it can be all gone overnight, we can spend years building our customer base and reputation and it too can all go with just one one bad customer experience, we can spend our life developing our path and with a fall it can be lost in seconds, we can be friends for years and just one bad conversation ends it, years in the gym and in a few months it's all gone...

All the pleasures of the egos are also like that they are only very short term and we are left with costly consequences that tak emuch much longer to repair and reinstate.

This applies not only to the "I's" of lust but to all the egos. With anger we take pleasure in getting angry and getting back at the person, yet our image and trust of others in us suffers greatly for months or is even irreparable. With pride we get the feeling of being right but that separates us from others. With gluttony we get the temporary sensations of eating fancy food but we have to work so much to get the weight off and it goes on and on.

This is a part of Samsara, that the creation of the ego through fornication (losing the energy) has brought us. We can only escape that with the awakening of consciousness.

End (5604).

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).
