Get Out of Poverty - (6023)

This is an important topic for people, especially in countries where there is physical poverty.

When we are in circumstances of physical poverty it is very difficult to work on ourselves. 

Truly it is difficult to start the work in such conditions and it is even difficult while we are already working on ourselves. 

To work on ourselves while in poverty would mean a very dramatic change in lifestyle and change in life circumstances.

We tend to think being poor is a really good condition to work on ourselves. For a certain time it really is. However for a prolonged duration it really isn't. 

It is also very difficult to work on ourselves being very internally poor. This is how most of us start the work on ourselves. Physically well provided for but internally poor.

Even though we are poor physically and internally there is always something that we have that we can make use of. This is the good news.

In general karma is not totally merciless. The karma always gives us a tool of some kind to endure it and away to lessen the load if we so choose.

We have to start to work where we are and how we are.

Why? Because we enter into a very instinctive way of living where we become totally consumed with worries about how we are going to make it through the next week. Some people call it survival mode, where in that state there is no room to think about our soul or to even think rationally.

Like everything in this world there is a reason for poverty. It is not a random curse.

It is not a random or unfair misfortune. Though I wouldn't say this to anyone suffering from poverty. 

The question of poverty comes down to the same principles of give and take, dharma and karma.

The insensitive thing is to say to a person that you are poor because of your karma. The sensitive and helpful thing to say is to offer teachings to get out of poverty.

The teachings to get out of poverty include addressing the main principles of giving, working honestly hard, raising the level of the Being.

Here are the main points on a high level:

• Raise the level of Being.

• Give as much as possible in any way that is possible so as to be helped with opportunities to change circumstances.

• Cultivate and transmute the sexual energy.

• Work on dissolving fear, pride, lust, laziness and vices such as drinking.

• Work in actively developing as much good qualities as possible.

• Relate well to money. Use it wisely, hold onto it for the future for future necessities.

• Go to work and don't wait for hand outs.

Attention with Mind, Attention with Essence - (5197)

These two attentions are different. Attention with the mind tires the brain. and reduces the flow of life into steps, where it is inevitable that the narration of the mind begins to take over. With the awareness of steps comes a certain tediousness and the feeling of the flow of life leaving us behind. With the attention of mind very little of what's behind events comes to us... Attention with the essence brings the power of presence, in other words brings a certain depth and continuity of flow  Attention with the essence doesn't tire or strain and opens doorways into perceiving what is behind events and the thoughts and feelings that appear within us. It allows us also to flow with the flow of life, which is a pleasant feeling. Conclusion, make the essence bring attention to outer and inner life. End (5197).

The Sacred Substance Askokin - (962)

Introduction In simple terms, the sacred Askokin substance is the result of the mercury and the sulphur. It is the transmuted energy that crystallises to form the internal bodies (astral, mental and causal). In other words, it is the transmutation of our sexual energies. The Abrustdonis’ and ‘Helkdonis that Gurdjieff mentions in the excerpt below, taken from “Belzeebub’s Tales to His Grandson” are none other than the elements of mercury and the sulphur so spoken about in Alchemy. Excerpt on the Sacred Substance Askokin “I first learned that the destiny of beings arising on this planet of yours is chiefly to elaborate—by means of the process of their existence—the vibrations required by Nature for the maintenance of those former parts of the planet now called Moon and Anulios, when, do you remember, I became worthy personally to converse for the second time with His Conformity the then still Angel, but now Archan...

Practical Implication Notes - Sexual Hydrogen Si-12 - (5152)

Notes We all need energy. Psychological and esoteric work takes energy. That is energy of a special kind not just any energy. The energy that most fuels psychological and esoteric work is the Sexual Hydrogen Si-12. Spiritual realizations, experiences, insight and transformation all takes energy. If we have no energy to do this we can not make any of these things happen inside of ourselves. This topic is about how to produce an energetic transformation inside of ourselves. Our body is a factory that in its processes of transformation selects the best of what is available, and furthermore it works to transform that into a precious final product.  The best final product of the best selection of the body's energies is the sexual energy that when transmuted becomes Sexual Hydrogen Si-12. Sexual Hydrogen is the seminal entity and it is the end result of the transformation of what we eat, breathe, think, feel and do. The body produces it automatically without our intervention and everyon...
