Insurance, Guarantees, Backups - (5693)

Human society life these days is all about insurance, backups, liability contracts, contingency plans, warranties and guarantees. We have all these things to protect ourselves from loss.

Sometimes that loss is real, objects, money, information, skills and people are really lost - gone temporarily or forever.

Most of the time though, insurance, backups and contingency are there to soften the fear provoked by the two worded question: 'What if...?" and the open ended thought: "Just in case, you never know...". 

In life we have to have our backs covered. We have to look after ourselves first and don't do anything that risks our security, whether that be financial, physical or our peace of mind.

Why is this? Because the main logic of life is to not suffer loss. To always gain, win and be physically, financially and mentally better off. 

The principles of the work are different, It is not to win, gain, lose, be up or down, it is to develop the consciousness which sometimes means to lose out and be below, from a human persepctive. Sometimes it means to be up and above as seen from the mere huamn life perspective. The main thing is that the work does not pander to or obey the logic of life.

The strange thing though, is that all the highly sucessful people in life, those who generate millions of dollars in income, say that they had to take risks. They would not be where they are now without having taken risks.

To the person 'who knows', there are no risks and no backup is needed. Because an awakened person knows the outcome.

When we are blinded or can not see, risks appear between us and our goals.

To take a risk in favour of our Being and the work could be a test of our faith in our Being... Or at the very least be an opportunity to se where our faith in our Being is at.

It feels that backup plans, insurance and contingency don't quite match when it comes to the Being and having faith in the Being. 

We decide something and go ahead and make it happen, is the power of faith in ourselves and in our Being.

For those of high faith and trust in themselves, backups and contingencies are because of indecision and inner division.

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).
