Morning Layering of Meaning - (6038)

In the morning when we wake up, we wake up clear of meaning for the day and our life. Then bit by bit the layers of meaning for our life and our day appear, layer by layer.

It is so common that when these layers are slow in appearing we feel somewhat lost or despondent. Even as 

The strange thing is a good cup of coffee helps to bring some of those short term those layers back and suddenly we have zest and meaning to face our day again.

The deeper layers of meaning are the big picture layers. These are the layers that cover us first. The worst experience when waking up when there is a too long a wait for these layers to appear or there is some hold up in their arrival, we feel such a profound panic in experiencing the void.

The consciousness replaces all these layers and lives out the greater layers of meaning with true life, not mere mental and yearning life.

It is also known in lucid dreaming practice that the dream scenarios are built up layer upon layer. This is observed when entering the first dream after falling lucidly asleep.

There are both layers of greater meanings and smaller meanings. We actually need both. When the smaller meanings feed into the greater meanings we generally feel a good sense of fulfillment.

The greater meaning of our life extends over our whole life and even far beyond it, especially when the greater meaning is related to the self-realisation of the Inner Being within us.

The smaller meanings are for the day or week. Unfortunately we get it wrong and live from smaller meaning to smaller meaning forgetting the greater meanings of our life.

What causes us grief is the gap between the smaller meanings. Within the gap we feel lost, bored, empty and confused. If the gap goes for too long we end up depressed or enter into unwholesome idleness. 

The key is to know these layers of meaning. Then focus on the more meaningful such as the greater meanings and align the smaller meanings of the day with the greater meaning.

End (6038).

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...

Embrace Motor Centre Lingo to Act - (6101)

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...
