Role of the Consciousness with Sensations - (5860)

Experience of Sensations

Being an essence in a human body means to experience so many sensations. There are so many kinds and types of sensations that we can experience.

Eventhough there are so many kinds of sesnsations, these different kinds are all available to the human mind to add to, give meaning to, create worry from, play down and ignore, exaggerate, crave and so on and so on.

As there are many kinds of sensations there are just as many ways the human mind can take them.

Some are pleasant and some are unpleasant, and some people find pleasant what others don't, and so it goes...

Meaning Of

Most sensations mean something for the essence inside the body. The sensation of a full stomach means to stop eating. Some other sensations are indicators of what the body is doing and what is going to happen next ,or what needs to happen for the sake of the well being of the body.

There are those sensations above that are clearly biological and instinctual, that can be observed and obeyed or they can be observed and overridden, but not for too long.

Truths

What though is the truth amongst all of this? One truth is that sensations can be influenced by our mind. Another truth is that sensations can be turned into emotion by our mind.  

The essential point of these truths resides in the discernment of the consciousness based on what is convienient in the given moment.

It is not in the nature of the consciousness, not having a physical body, to be enslaved by the body and its sensations. It is in the nature of the consciousness to be very aware of the body and relate to it in an edifying and dignifying way, but to be trapped and enslaved by it.

The consciousness has within it the power to discern and choose. We all this from our studies.

Another truth is that there are the sensations, and the sensations make us feel something, and then there is the meaning given to the sensation by our mind. This meaning is often exaggerated, and that exaggeration turns into something else, far from the extent of the sensation.

All the parts of the body are equal and their sensations are the same in the sense that they are indicators of that body part's functions.

This is very important to understand, There is not sensation produced by the body that is without reason, super special, incomprehensible and beyond our capcity to deal with and seperate the hype or meaning our mind gives it. 

It then comes to the consciousness to be aware of the sensations and be discerning the correct meaning given to the sensations. It comes to the consciousness to definitely control the meanings given by the mind and if needed to do something, or not do something.

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).
