Gnostic Wisdom

When something is not working and we are not getting anywhere and the same disappointing result as always we need to do something different. There is no point banging on the same door expecting to get a different result. That is getting crazy. We have to do something different. Before we can come to the conclusion that there is a karmic impediment stopping us we have to try doing something different, that is approaching it from a different angle all together. The different angle will always be the choice of value that is superior in relation tot eh work and Being that the values used in the previous approach. That new choice creates a new plan and attitude within us which our interior Divinity and our Kaom and the Divine Law see, and the doors open. Things work and progress but the same door that is now open closes if we revert back to the previous values and approach. Our interior divinity can show us that right or adequate approach. Sometimes we have to ask for it and sometimes not. ...

Why that difference? How is it that we can accept some statements or implications from certain people but others say the same thing and we get upset? It feels mysterious as to why we can't accept some 'words' from certain individuals but from other individuals we can. We find ourselves say: "What is it about that person that just triggers me so much?". It is said though that nothing is mysterious with the psyche, there is a reason for everything. The reason why resides in the fact that we have an accumulated history with that person that has developed a concept or belief about them. It is really that belief that makes it so difficult for us to accept 'words' from them. There is the concept which is a tough one to get over then there is the implication of the concept, which in many cases can be even more difficult to get over. So there is a double concept or belief at play, which is why we get so triggered into an upset state. Let's see an example. Beca...

Walking the path is not about being perfect. Because that becomes a huge bottle that stagnates us and causes lots of suffering. In the long run it becomes a performance which deceives and stops the path. The focus of the path is not being perfect, it is rather in seeing our reality - exactly as we are. When talking about perfection and the path, the factor of perfection comes into being able to see ourselves as we are as perfectly as possible at that stage. Then after seeing ourselves as clearly as we can to then polish as best we can according to our capacities at that stage.  To then repeat that and repeat that...  To think that we have o be perfect hurts so much and that pain distracts us from the real work we have to do. To even come to see ourselves perfectly is a long process...  You know, here's the truth, to see ourselves perfectly we have to be NOT be perfect!  There's the paradox of how the consciousness walks on the path. End (6118).

It is a mistake of ours to identify with being 'wrong' or 'right'.  'Being' or the Being is neither wrong or right. There is not such a thing as a 'wrong' being or a 'right' being, or a 'wrong' person or a 'right' person. There is just a being that is, there is just being, that is a being that just IS. The Being in all of us Is present, Is alive Is radiating... We can get it wrong or get it right but that is so different to being 'right' or 'wrong' as a whole being. In fact no one is ever getting it right or wrong all of the time. Getting it right or wrong is not a function of Being it is rather a function of consciousness. As difficult as it is, we have to not allow ourselves to identify with being right or being wrong. In reality it does not make us better or worse in the Being or in our Being. Making a mistake or having thought wrongly is a chance for consciousness to work. That is all it really is in reality. W...

The interesting thing about wisdom is that by nature it sits on the side of negativity. Meaning that wisdom is gained from much experience of things going wrong. The understanding and knowledge of what went wrong is then used in the present to prevent things going wrong anew or again. That's why on the tree of life wisdom is the attribute given to Chockmah. The second logos is Chockmah which is also the Holy Denying. Wisdom essentially in its nature wishes to deny failure. That is what wisdom is essentially good for. In that wish of wisdom to deny or in other words prevent failure, there is mercy. That is also why Chockmah (wisdom) sits on the side/column of Mercy in the tree of life. Wisdom is also inert and needs to be completed by love or action. In the first logos the Father we see the Holy Affirming force and there is only the will to act. It is the supreme crown which means to author, to decide to bring froward. Then the wisdom of Chokmah is the there to shape what the Father...

It's a must really for our well being and for the work on ourselves to receive, be around and generate positive energy. Often when we visit others and partake in meetings with others we receive and also give a lot of positive energy. We come back home energised, optimistic and organised ready to continue forwards with renewed energy. This shows us how important positive energy is. This energy helps us in may ways in our work and overall emotional well-being. Experiencing the opposite (negative energy) it is really difficult to maintain our work at an upward angle and just as difficult to not allow our morale to lower. That is why when we go to help others who are experiencing negative states we need to make a greater effort within ourselves to keep that upward angle in our inner state. To help others well, we need to often take refuge within ourselves to regain that upwards angle and while helping others, it is 'a must' to remain warm but isolated, which in itself is a trem...

We are commanded to dissolve the egos we have. That's the task. How we go about it, doesn't matter so much, what matters is that we get there.  So if we don't walk a straight path towards dissolution but a bit back and forward and windy zig-zagged but we are getting there, what does it matter? What matters is that we are honestly getting there. End (6112).

We all gravitate and frequent places, people, activities and times of the day where we for some reason or anther truly relax. We actually come to value highly those times, places and people where we truly relax. We also understandably come to be quite attached to those times, places and people where we truly relax. We are not attached to the place, person or activity but the feeling of relaxation that we get. True relaxation means where we can be our true selves, be as we ae, relaxed into how and what we are. Where the tension of having to present as something is far far away. In normal life that is what we see so many people all looking for and finding it in so many ways. With the inner work deep relaxation is found most commonly in seeking refuge in the silence of our heart temple. End (6113).

The Divine Mother and Her Son - the Intimate Christ, are the ones, whose true values have been covered up and put aside. They are present yes in religions and teachings, but in the sense (Kundalini and Intimate Christ) that they are most meaningful to an individual they have been veiled. This is because they are (Kundalini and Intimate Christ) the most important powers for anyone to walk the esoteric path.   It has only ever been the heavenly father in all the religions that has been the one presented in full clear  of day - sight. This is because of two main reasons. One reason is that, the father is the one that is furthest away from us and is also the most aloof by nature. So it will take a while to get answers and help from the Father. The second reason is that the Father is the one of authority and power which resonates with what the forces that veiled mother and son want, which is to gain and maintain power and instill fear for control. The best way to do this is by...

Sometimes focus comes in the form of discovery as sweet or bitter as it may be at times. Focusing on perfection becomes an act (performance), but focusing on progress is much more real. End (6107).

The governments that don't transmute ruin their country. The first world countries are that way because their governments essentially transmute the wealth from their country's natural resources. They do this by investing back again into the people and the country. Through education, renewing and maintaining infrastructure, medical research and development, arts, science, social welfare, support of all kinds and numerous initiative for the well-being of its people. Governments that through corruption take the money generated from the country's resources and deposit it into the pockets of greedy individuals, are formicating and all fornication ends in ruin. Fornication is to spend or expend energy - burn things out wastefully - that is where there is no return. Putting money into corrupt and greedy individuals or group entities where that money goes to excess luxury while so many still suffer is total fornication. Nothing is bettered, enhanced or improved, instead more karma ...

The process of falling asleep has three basic stages: Identification, Fascination and Dreaming. It is super important to know this, as this knowledge will help us to not fall asleep and therefore be free to choose to stay awake. Identification is when we allow our attention to be fixed on an object for too long. What takes place in the identification phase is that we become the same as that which our attention is focused on. The antidote with identification is to not forget oneself.  Fascination is a deeper phase of identification. It is the phase where we are mesmerized, can't understand, are compelled, taken by, can't stop thinking or talking about something, trying to work it out, horrified by, scared of, basically all believing something is bigger or more mysterious than it actually is. The antidote to fascination is to make the conscious effort to study and understand something.  As soon as we begin to study and then slowly begin to understand, fascination gradually disap...

No doubt to that we get nowhere in the death of our egos if we do not impose on ourselves a strict psychological discipline. As awful as this sounds in practice this is so true. A discipline of:      • Not objecting     • Not touching any issue with our internal tongue     • Not reacting with our word     • No-thinking     • Comprehending instead of judging     • Being present from moment to moment     • Repolarising to our internal heavens from our abyss      • Punctual work of dissolution with Divine Mother End (6106).

To die psychologically in some small facets sometimes costs at the end of it all a few dollars. Sometimes just saving or protecting ourselves from a few dollars stops from embracing psychological freedom. End (6107).

We are silly sometimes and think that to avoid or reject is to be getting free. It certainly can feel like that but it is not freeing us. We are more occupied and burdened through doing that. Be sensible, reasonable and fair (balanced in other words) to not get more karma. Be professional. Don't get identified and do the hard work to make every interaction conscious and be humble to consciously learn and correct our errors.  If it happens we need to give some values, becasue of our karma or own learning then with gratitude give those values to as they are the ticket we need to buy for freedom or a change for the better. Exactly like this we get free of difficult situations, events and even people and relationships if that is the case.  End (6105).

That's the order that everything follows. Any project, business, project, work whether it be human or esoteric: all payment in establishing, reciprocity and multiplying merits. Take a Gnostic centre for example. The beginning is hard work. Real honest effort is required to find students, find a suitable place, advertise, meet new people, explain in genuine good humour what is Gnosis, answer questions, give classes. It is a lot about giving and paying everything forward towards the goal of establishing. Once established, comes reciprocity where people who have received from what we have been giving,  begin to give back. Things then go more towards balance. What we have outlaid before is compensated in some way. After reciprocity, comes the stage of merit where values, gifts, help, support all come freely and tangibly without asking and without expecting or knowing.  This stage is wonderful, as everything that is done has a multiplying effect. Values multiply and there is much m...

A student recently said that the most common factor that ruins relationships is the untransmuted sexual energy and the untransformed relationship with money. Reflecting on that he is right...  The untransmuted sexual energy produces strong desires and frustrations leading to anger which leads to resentment and disappointment and all kinds of friction and conflict. They are similar values in many ways and produce the same kind of symptomatic and problems. Balance in relation to money is the key and transmutation which is balance is the key for the sexual energy. End (6102).

To overcome the overthinking issue and the lamentation of not doing, we can use a key where we embrace the language of the motor centre. Before we do that we need to know the language of the motor centre. The language of the motor is action, it is doing. It is life in motion. It is starting, it is 'getting stuck into'  a task without reasoning.   "Get it done!" is the motto of the motor centre. "Let's find out!" is another. The motor centre modus operandi is not reasoning, that belongs to the intellect. So delaying and postponing is the intellect. It's not the motor centre. The motor centre is about doing. The more we just do something when we think of it or feel like no matter what the mind reasons (unless a very good physical reason) the more we are embracing the language of the motor centre.  Action without thinking. There has to be thinking but thinking aligned with doing, not thinking against doing. The motor is always doing. Not doing something...

First we start in Gnosis learning together. Then later that learning becomes verified knowledge and later still that knowledge is applied and becomes working knowledge. Equipped with working knowledge we work together to radiate light. Eventually a Gnostic school turns into a Gnostic centre that operates as a point of light for the benefit of humanity that is magnetic and also electric.  The learning turns into working and fighting to radiate light. The learning never stops and the main column is the action of working to expand the light. Really where there is much darkness only then do we come to appreciate how a group of people working on themselves is so rare and special, and how they really together forms a point of light that is powerful and so needed. The light shines brightest in the darkness... End (6103).

With the work on ourselves we create a magnetic centre and that magnetic centre brings to us all that we need to keep going and to advance and expand. If we are not getting what it is that we need to sustain and expand the magnetic field of the centre is not strong enough. To make the magnetic field stronger we just need to increase the quality of the work on ourselves. Making it deeper and more defined. End (6099).

If we wait to be perfect and polished at something - we will never start it. We will only get to be polished after having started the process. There's something in us that only wants to deliver a very polished presentation. That is a super good intention, but in practice it is just another concrete block that stops us. Pride feels that with a polished presentation people will think 'well' of us. What is more closer to the truth is that with a presentation that we think is polished, we will think 'well' of us. As with so many things we have overcome our pride and go for it, with the key being to accepting that we can only get to be polished after having practiced, and we have to start somewhere at sometime as the first step towards being polished. End (6098).

Start from the Bottom (Mineral Life) When an essence is emanated from the Absolute for the first time, it begins it's journey into creation through the mental, astral, etheric rounds (see talk on the seven rounds and seven races) into the physical, where it then begins its physical life starting from the mineral kingdom. It then transmigrates through the plant, animal and finally into the human kingdom. Indigenous Tribes Such essences entering the human kingdom for the first time are born amongst the indigenous cultures of the world. That is amongst the various tribes of the world living what we would call a primitive life. A life that is close to nature, close to the Mother (Earth) and the learning that takes place is all about mother nature and how to live with mother nature. Just as new born children we stay close to our mother and all of our learning is in the beginning is through our mother. We can see that the learning about life begins as a new essence starts with the very f...

We give up chocolate for a week then we relapse, and in the relapse we eat in one or two sittings, all that we missed out on during the previous week. It is like the swing of the pendulum and so very naturally mathematically exact. This doesn't apply just to stopping eating chocolate but mental and emotional habits as well, especially the egos that are behind these habits. For example, instead of chocolates it could be criticism or judgement, or annoyances. The way we work with the pendulum starts by knowing it and knowing that the pendulum swing effect is what will happen if we provoke it.  We provoke the pendulum by not understanding what we are doing and just mechanically stopping a habit, for example. The pendulum swing effect is avoided by approaching stopping a habit by first being armed with good reasons that are deeply significant to us. Secondly, work to stop the pendulum gradually by coming to the centre slowly and smoothly. The pendulum is defeated gradually through crea...

Consciously working on Transvaluation is difficult. Transvaluation usually happens by itself as we work on ourselves and understand in a deeper way the teachings. Transvaluation means to transfer our centre of gravity from life to the work.  Before transvaluation, life, its pursuits and concerns were valued as top priority, after transvaluation the work on ourselves and the development of our inner life and Being are valued as top priority. Even though transvaluation is difficult there are methods of consciously working on transvaluation which are not as difficult and produce very good results.  There comes a time when we know we need a deeper level of transvaluation to go forward, and so we find ourselves having to consciously face working on transvaluation. This is when methods of transvaluation become very relevant and important. Choosing the right method actually can make all the difference. We truly want a method that we can pick up and work with at our level, that produc...

There are the ways of the rays.  There is the way of wisdom like the way of force, like the way of love and the way of the artist...  All are different ways to the same end. All in essence do the same, that is produce the same result. Each way has it's way to work on ourselves and approach the challenges of life. The basic way of wisdom to approach life is wisdom, consulting first the wisdom learnt from past experiences and looking into the situation for the wisest response that serves best highest 'good' in relevance. Here wisdom touches love; "love the summon of all wisdom". When it comes to working on ourselves the way of wisdom can be seen to proceed according to two steps. The first step is to take the wisdom - a sentence of truth derived from comprehension and insight of the consciousness and fuse it into our Being. The second step is then using the force of that wisdom fused into our Being, express in action thus making it more apert of our being with eac...

With the work on the ego. We often react because we feel it's pain. We react to the uncomfortable feeling, in an attempt to ease the feeling if not make it go away all together. Only to find that after reacting we are in more pain. The conclusion is that we need some kind of training to train ourselves at first to feel and relax through the pain the ego feels, separate it and then not allow it to express. Know that it is an ego and let it go as quickly as possible and once it is gone we are all good for a while, unless it comes back. If we drum this understanding into ourselves we can help ourselves to increase our ability to separate from it and advance more decisively towards its dissolution. End (6100).

We are truly not our way of thinking and feeling. We really feel that we are and we intensely defend our way of thinking and feeling. We can often catch ourselves saying statements such as: "that's just me, that's the way I think!", "I can't think and feel differently about that issue. That's just the way I think, it is me!". The truth is though that our way of thinking and feeling changes over time. It is actually pliable, flexible and malleable. Our consciousness or intelligence can mold it.  So then who are we if at one point we can think one way and later in time think the opposite? Even though it may seem true that my way of thinking is all me, others actually can and do think like that also. How unique is it really? We have to identify ourselves as the consciousness and intelligence, which is the one that can mold our way of thinking and feeling. When we identify with our way of thinking we feel hurt all the time. It never stops.  It may reall...

This is the question, what effect do others have on us through the impressions they emit towards us? Do they contribute to making ourselves feel comfortable with ourselves or think that there is something wrong with ourselves? Love is a powerful force and polarised as hatred it is an equally powerful force. The impressions of love from another causes us subconsciously and even consciously to feel good  and comfortable within ourselves. We can of course also send waves of love towards ourselves to our Inner Being consciously and voluntarily, to counter any negative impressions towards us. The impressions of disrespect, disdain,. reprimand, superiority, constant criticism, harsh words and cold  treatment even abuse cause us automatically and subconsciously to despise ourselves.  The strangest thing is that we don't notice that we are doing this to ourselves, we only see the anger, hurt  and protest as a strong reaction. When this despise of ourselves builds up it is un...

What is about the last drop or the last morsel that is so important and we would fight and suffer many times more than the suffering of not having it.  Is it just a sign of our sleeping consciousness. That we in general prefer a minute's bliss instead of preventing a week's suffering or how Jesus remarked that we complain about the speck of wood in another person's eye but ignore the 6 foot plank in our own eye. Even in the infra-dimensions there are those that would fight and even kill for the last drop of brandy from a bottle.  Is it because the last drop signifies the very end before the long drought and the desperation of having something before the drought is what has all the power and so we fight just to get that feeling of having the slightest fulfillment before a long tough drought ensues. Anyway whatever the reason it is a good avenue of observation, self-study and a point for comprehension, as this phenomenon appears many times in our own psychology in different a...

Everything we are doing is about exchanging values. Nothing is for free everything, works on an exchange. In any exchange, we are awarded according to the high quality of the values exchanged. Each and every exchange is ruled over by justice. So the higher the value or the greater the quality of value that we exchange or trade the greater the return. We think that we should make money trading poor values, meaning the unspoken goal is to get the most from giving the least. Then no wonder why things are not working out or paying off in our life. If we always give high quality values form ourselves, that is putting high quality time, energy and attention we will receive the most in return. We will receive a gain on our invest of the high quality values we put in.  In other words we will gain the most internally from it. More satisfying and more fulfilling, and more inner growth. We also think that things in spirituality should be for free but that is not how things work at all. Just l...

We may have never let anyone see us, even though the interact face to face with us all day long. I mean your hear t of hearts, your essence, your Being, with all its heart felt deepest yearnings, without our chest pulled open for our heart to be seen. Have we every spoken to someone that way or treated them from that place? Maybe we have only ever seen a person like that once (one that special day), and never again... Perhaps this what people call vulnerability art its deepest point. We could say now you see my essence, my Being, and for the rest you won't see me apart from my mask (personality) and my changing moods and contradictions (egos). How lucky we were able to 'see' a person in their life with us. You 'see' me now and you won't 'see' me for a long while... To best moment to 'see' another is before they go, or part from our life, as that memory is what will carry forward through time until meeting again, and seeing their soul again. End (...

The flow of life is a powerful river, that will always find its way around an obstacle. Our life is the same. The flow of life in our life can not but continue to flow. It flows and takes us with it around and over obstacles, on and on. When something is in the flow of life, of our life, it will find its way to express, manifest and unfold. That is it's living principle. When we suffer a tragedy, the flow of our life will always find a way around it.  That is the one and only question of the flow of life: "how it will find a way?" Life in its essence is all about finding a way! All about finding a way! The flow of life is the one power that finds a way. "How does someone deal with that happening in their life?", is a question often asked. The answer is their flow of life within them will find a way to, just as a river flows over the rocks blocking its way. So let's relax. Let's trust in the forces and intelligences behind the flow of life. We often don...

Needed Taking action is the need. Not taking action is what trips us all up. There is a science to taking action. Knowing this science and applying it helps us to improve at taking action and changing our ways to be more practical and balanced between thinking and action. Points of the Science One of the points of this science is to act straight away. Don't wait for the perfect setup or moment or preparation. Accept the first attempt could well be a flop. Get the flop out of the way and onto the next attempt. Be happy to get it wrong and equally happy to say that was learning and then jump forward applying what was just learnt. Forget the past and focus on the new actions. As soon as we think of it do it. If we say to ourselves we are going to do it, do it now. Think of a helpful idea. Do it right now. When we feel like doing something go ahead and do it. Don't plan it in for later.  When we feel like doing something that is the moment of us to do it even if we are doing someth...

Introduction In general proceed from the outside working inwards. Here is an example checklist for some ideas to follow when practicing intimate psychoanalysis. Checklist Physical Recreate the event using our memory and imagination.  What was the event about? Who was there? Where was it? What was the sequence of events? What was said? What did I do? What did I say? Use imagination to be outside of ourselves and see everything that happened, even see ourselves in the event, just as if we were watching the event on TV. Important! At this stage it is just factual and objective answering.  This will bring a lot of light, as it is valuable information that we need to see about ourselves. Observation gives rise to separation and separation gives rise to comprehension. Observation essentially tells us that the "I" we are observing is not of our true Being nature. Hence the process of separation begins within us. Psychological What was the flavour of the event? What impressions were ...

Punctuality The key to doing well in intimate psycho-analysis is to analyse straight away. Allow as little time to pass as possible. This is to avoid the mind from forgetting details and inventing others, playing things down and in general omitting and not seeing things as they were. End (6073).

Notes for Successful Intimate Psycho Analysis Introduction Here are some notes to assist with the practice of intimate psychological analysis as Master Samael taught it. What is it and What is it for  Intimate psychoanalysis is a tool used in the psychological work. It is used to assist in the dissolution of a psychological "I" or aggregate. It is practiced ideally in a concentrated or meditative state of mind, introducing a series of questions that are aimed at dismantling the falsities and illusions presented by the psychological "I" under examination  One of the results of psychoanalysis is to provide insight to apprehend the nature of the psychological "I" and to understand how and why it functions. It is a stage in the dissolution of the psychological "I". Usually an initial stage.  After one has done a lot of psychological work - psychological analysis is left behind because one knows really well what any ego is, and just goes about giving ...

Unemotional decisions are the best ones to make.  When we are unemotional, this is our most stable state and in that state we have access to a certain knowing within us that allows us to know if we can uphold the consequences of the decision no matter what they are. This knowing makes us to stand on steady grounds within us.  When we are unemotional we are not going to change so much and we are not going to regret them or make the wrong decision.  Unemotional decisions are also more conscious.  Emotional decisions are usually always the ones that we regret later. Emotional decisions are when we decide based on an intense emotion and then when the emotion subsides we don't feel the same and we regret the decision. Unemotional decisions are best as they also carry the benefit of being well thought out - with our intellectual centre having done it's work.  The advantage of making unemotional decisions is that our response to the results of the decision  are ba...

Because we don't really know how to die in ourselves too well, we go and tell others all sorts of things.  We find that when we know how to die and we start to do it, we say a lot less to people. A lot less complaint and protest and a lot less come back and accounting book. End (6064).

Fear disappears or subsides substantially when we say to ourselves to one day, that I can live in what I fear and be all ok. For example, if I fear not having any money, and I say well I'm going to just live in that situation and put look beyond it, then fear diminshes. Fear typically ends when we rise up within ourselves and say I'm going to make it through and be all ok and then take away the huge amount of attention I'm putting on that situation. Then leaves in a very substantial way. When fear goes, we see how much more there is to life, we are an essence, we have consciousness and what is important is to live the life of our Being, and not allow it to be hampered or blocked by not trusting in It. That though does not at all mean we stop working or stop doping. Continue doing and working hard but without worry. The Being and ourselves are a team, we need to do our part and the Being does It's part. End (6085).

As hard as this is to hear, when we worry about money and plans we stop living. We get frozen and start to sink. Just live! There's not much - just smile and live. There is always enough evidence in our life that our Being and the greater has got our back. When we sincerely look we find evidence. Trust and just live! Work and do what we must but not we worry, anger and or desperation. That is really not living that is sinking. End (6081).

We tend to have that tendency to consume all that which is not healthy for us as quickly as possible, even all in one go. That is often whey we get drunk, we get overweight, we oversleep, we overthink, we gossip too much, we watch to much, we etc. etc. too much. On a surface level, often it is not what is consumed that is not healthy it is the quantity.  We can modify this tendency understanding that we can still consume though in small quantities. The benefit in that is that we don't go into the unhealthy zone and we get to enjoy consuming whatever it is over a longer time span. Going deeper, the element to really focus on as being unhelpful is our attachment to what we get from what we are consuming. We all get a certain feeling and it is this feeling that we are always looking for. The basis of this tendency is that we feel for some reason that what we are consuming is not so good for us and so we try to get rid of it as quickly as possible by consuming it all in one go. We do t...
