Gnostic Wisdom

Somethings we can avoid not becasue we are scared of what may happen but because avoiding them we can save ourselves some or a lot of inconvenience.  It is all in us to know if we don't feel sacred or not. IT may look as though we don though we really may not be. The only way to tell is to just see how we feel right before the moment we have the change to avoid the moment or event that will unfold the inconvenience. End (6076).

If we find ourselves feeling alone, even if we have a life partner, know that we are always in partnership with our Inner Being. Sometimes it is with a life partner that we at times feel more alone that when we were single. Strange things that happen in life... We forget this partnership exists yet it is always there. This is one of our problems - forgetting that we are in constant partnership with our Inner Being. It is a matter of perception. Perceiving the partnership and actively participating in it. It is up to us to participate in it and be a good partner. Gnosis invites us to partner with our Inner Being... Converse with the Inner Being, plan with the Inner Being, consult the Inner Being, encourage and motivate with the Inner Being and work together with the Inner Being.  Work in honour and in the name of the Inner Being. Listen to the Inner Being... Above all make it a reality to us, just as real as our life partner is. This is where the success lies in the point of this po...

Whenever there is relativity in a situation there is the potential for pride. When there is relativity there is a dual dynamic, with one party above another party or one party more in some way than another party. As soon as we identify with either side that is being more or being less pride is present in us. We don't need to pride to fulfill our role in either party. We just need understanding and respect. The key to disarm pride is to know that we are not more nor are we less. We are just what we are in the moment and situation. Which is humility. For example, teacher and student,. The teacher is more in knowledge. For the teacher to teach the student must understand and respect the situation and just learn. The student does not need to feel less to learn and the teacher does not need to feel more or better to teach. End (6074).

We are all working on knowing ourselves. When it comes to knowing ourselves we are all a work in progress and we will always be. In knowing ourselves we are helping the Absolute, the Great Agnostos Theos (The God unknown to Itself) to know itself. We are never the same, in each moment we are different. Each moment in fact changes us. To know ourselves is something ever changing. We don't typically know others very well.  If we are within ourselves and each moment changes us how can we know another person completely? We only get to know a little bit of another person. When we commonly get to know another person we only really get to know their outer layers. Their personality: what they like and don't, their tastes, habits, style. Their egos, what makes them upset, angry, their drives and fears, their shortcomings etc. Their star sign and all the tendencies in the person that match with their star sign. We normally don't know the soul and Being of another person. That remains...

That's one reason to work on negativity. Negativity slows down our processes and even produces huge inertia and in-action where there needs to be action. It has a freezing effect. Positivity on the other hand is very mobile and fluid. It moves and  The work on negativity is also slow.  It all starts with not letting it in and not permitting what's already there to go on for long. Close the doors and give no air time. Then later go to the roots of it. Which is slow, takes time and is deep intricate work. The discovery of the roots and then doing the opposite is a long work, and most of the time it is easier to just start by doing the opposite and as we strengthen ourselves in that we discover the roots.  The best way of doing the opposite is by thinking and speaking positive about whatever! Often the roots are based in a lack of trust in the opposite to negativity, and the lightness and non-grasp ability of the opposite makes the opposite a bit more out of reach. The negat...

We know it is alive when we catch ourselves retaliating or planning to retaliate. This is becasue the "I" of self-love registers straight away a psychological debt or imbalance. When the "I" of self-love is weak or dying this registering of psychological debt doesn't happen and so the retaliation is not there. Dissolving the "I" of self-0love makes us to be creative with our consciousness turning something that appears unjust to something that is good for us. End (6068).

The order of things working in the human machine is: thinking, feeling and acting or intellect, emotion and motor.  When we do anything, like paint a house the order is the same. Thinking, feeling and doing. We plan, we feel confidence in the plan and we paint the house following the plan. Issues arise when we become unbalance and sped too much time on either one of these stages. Forgetting the thinking part and just doping gets things done, though it often creates a mess, that is things don't get done well. Which is what we can see in a lot in Africa in general.  Thinking to much makes things slow but when they are done they are done well. Which is what we can see in Australia and Europe. The unbalanced ways serve as teacher to show us balance.  Perfectionist sit on the overthinking side. While the 'don't care' attitude sits on the doing side, that is doing nothing or getting it done quick out of the way. End (6070).

Where does this horrible cruelty that human beings express come from?  From the self. It goes self-cruelty then outer cruelty. Cruelty to others and animals, plants and the Earth is a compensation from the cruelty that was first of all allowed to be one to oneself. Often when children and even adults are exposed to some abuse by others they develop this outer cruelty. We are cruel when we are miserable inside first. If the inner cruelty in a person continues and it is frequently expressed outwardly then in time a cruelty ego develops which has the potential to make the person what we could call perverse. When we are treated harshly, allowing ourselves to buy into that cruelty, accept it or tolerate it or even worse - believe in it against ourselves we are being cruel to ourselves and then to compensate for being unfairly cruel to ourselves, we express our frustration or lament outwardly, being cruel to others, animals and plants.  Normally we react with anger at others wh...

"YOUR BEING" These are two words that are the reason for everything . The reason to live, to work, to endure, to persevere, to die! End (6066).

Gift The sexual energy is a gift. We are given the sexual energy. We do not create it. Our body produces it for us automatically. It is the gift we've been given to create. By virtue of who in Divinity are we given this gift of creative energy? Gnosis teaches this is the Third Logos. As the Third Logos is the third force which is the creative force that comes from the combination of the two opposites - the Holy Affirming and Holy Denying. We also know that nothing in life is free. Everything is earnt, worked and paid for, via an exchange. If we are given a gift by nature as nothing is for free we are given freedom to do with it as we please but yet we are accountable for the results of what we do with it. We can not be held fully accountable for what we don't know. However, because the law is there, there is some accountability that we can be held to. Just as in physical life when we break a law that we didn't know existed, we still get a fine. We are given this gift of the...

Introduction Master Samael teaches that each nation has karma. Here are some notes on national karma. Notes Each nation has an identity and therefore is an entity in reality. Considering a nation as an entity - that is a unique unit with certain autonomy that comes from the consciousness of the people that constitute it,  a nation can act on its own merits and therefore acquire it's own karma and dharma.  It's easy to see that some countries are doing so well and some others are simply not. Some countries experience war, draught, famine and general poverty, while others experience the opposite. This is all due to a nation's level of karma and dharma. Why do some countries have more karma or dharma than others?  A nation can act as a unit to advantage or disadvantage its own people as well as other nations and peoples. When a nation benefits its people and helps other nations that nation earns and accumulates dharma. It's obvious, that countries whose inhabitants on aver...

Lust is about realising the yearning to be in union with love. We all have this yearning in our essence and our essence fulfills this yearning. The way of union is always something sexual. There is a part of our essence that loves and wants to be united in love and with love. It is this part of our essence that when it gets trapped or conditioned acts in a way we in society would call 'lustful'. This part of essence that wants to love seeks for ways to be united in love. Of course it will naturally look at sexual union as that is the deepest and most complete way to find union. There are also other kinds of union such as devotion which is a very emotional type of union. An observation that we can make is that when we are single this part of our essence is very active seeking, when we are in relationship and love and happiness is lacking this part becomes active again seeking. When a relationship ends this part again becomes very active. When we are in a relationship and we feel...

Master Samael teaches that the sexual centre is a centre of gravitation and life on many subtle levels essentially revolves around sex. Essentially as much as we may not like to sex, it is the subtle force that moves life. He also teaches that there is a need for us to think sexually... Very confusing right when you hear that for the first time. It's like: "I think I'm in the wrong place.". What he means by sexual thinking is a thinking that sees that is able to see that everything in life has a underlying sexual component and that activities in life unfold via the sexual principles. Where the main sexual principles are to do with the law of polarity and the combination of the polarities via the law of three, which leads to creation. Then creation is organised by the Law of Seven. If we look at business it is all sexual. No wonder why sex and selling are so linked. Here is a personal example, of how this was better understood. Working on business development I was the...

We react or rather can't stop reacting to tough impressions because we are scratched raw and it simply hurts, and reacting is so instinctively automatic. When our 'skin' is a healed and normal can work a lot better on not reacting. Usually when we have had time to transform and assimilate the tough impressions we can handle a sequence of them a lot better. Our 'skin' is our psychological system, that is affected by our energy levels and how agitated our subconscious is. Meditation (especially the inner stillness kind), transmuting, prayer, contemplation and transforming impressions heals our skin.  End (6053).

We can somehow overlook how the sexual energy influences our psyche and our therefore our thinking and feeling.  From the outside and following conventional thinking there is apparently not much connection between the sexual energy and our psyche. However, there is, just as Gnosis has always mentioned. The reason why there is, is because the sexual energy is in our psyche, and our psyche runs using that energy. Afterall just like everything else, our psyche needs energy to function and this energy has to come from somewhere.  The clearer our sexual energy the clearer our psyche and the clearer our psyche the clearer our sexual energy. It is something obvious that energy moving through our psyche has to affect it. Energy moving through a physical object affects it, for example, producing heat and vibration that can alter its shape. The conclusion here is that what is happening with our sexual energy is at the same time affecting what is going on in the deeper levels of our psyc...
