What am I Doing Why am I Helping..?

What am I Doing Why am I Helping..? - (6054)

Have you ever been in that situation where you find yourself making all these efforts to help someone and in the middle of it all you ask yourself: "What am I doing? Why am I running around for this person I have barely any connection to?".

"I do not work for this person. They are not my family or friend. I am not getting paid for this and I'm not going to get anything back...They have done nothing for us before and I doubt they really care either?".

This is a really interesting situation. There is definitely a higher power at work and present for us to perceive and make contact with, if we choose.

Psychologically it is really good to discover why it is that we feel we shouldn't be helping. Is it a personality thing (different culture), selfishness, do we feel the situation unfair - we have given and now we are still giving, there has to be some kind of psychological reality behind that feeling.

The interesting thing is that even though we have that "what's going on?" inner protest, we are still running and helping.

There the reason is that we are acting as an agent of the good side of Karma. The Divine Law is moving us from above despite our uncooperative psychology to help.

When we help we see that there was an injustice that the divine Law was moving us to stop and compensate for.

It is always better to be an instrument of the good side of the Law than an instrument of karmic debt, making others suffer.

Sometimes it can be because of the Being of the person and the internal merits that the person has.

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...

Wisdom from the Movie “Kingdom of Heaven” - (2168)

Introduction There are some movies that leave you with some pieces of advice that at point or another in your life or in the lives of others prove useful. This movie: “Kingdom of Heaven” was terrible to watch (too many battle scenes and people dying) but offered some very useful messages. In this post, I have presented a few, that have come in handy at point or another. Just to give you a bit of context, the movie is about the crusades, where the French and English were trying to defend the “Holy City” – Jerusalem from Islamic occupation. The topic of religion and God is a constant theme in the movie. It is very violent though, matching it frankly, quite awful to watch. Your Soul is in Your Keeping Alone An interesting dialogue between the French appointed king of Jerusalem and French Knight, the protagonist of the movie. Note, the king wears that metal mask because he has leprosy. King Baldwin I...
