Some Points on Anger III (55)

Point 21

Anger damages our internal vision or clairvoyance. “Blinded by anger” is a common saying.

Point 22

Anger releases a certain poison called imperil into the blood which in turn damages our imagination or clairvoyance.

Point 23

There are three types of anger: physical or of the body, word and mind.

Point 24

We get angry when others come to us that have the same level of the being as us and we allow our subconscious to connect to theirs. Anger is very contagious.

Point 25

There is a red line or a limit related to anger. If we go pass this anger we get loose control and act instinctively and reason, love, respect etc. are all gone. Anger is in full control of the human machine.

Point 26

Anger does not have a goal, the other egos behind have the goal.

Point 27

To avoid anger we need to solve the situation without a mental process, because, anger exists or manifests on the level of the mental processes. We should also ask the Being to remove any obstacle.

Point 28

Anger has hatred within it.

Point 29

Anger leads us to misuse the word.

Point 30

Anger has a particular use of the word. Some of the signs that anger is using our word are definite, radical, extreme statements, swearing, cursing, ill-will, loud volume, harsh or sharp tone etc.

Point 31

The loss of the sexual energy makes one angry. This is because we lack the force of the sexual energy. Anger also comes from a sense of impotence or powerlessness.

Point 32

Anger in association with pride leads us to commit injustice. This is because pride is the ego that tries to restore the balance or it is the conditioned sense of the dignity and justice of the Being. When pride uses anger being conditioned it goes against others and creates more unbalance and the therefore injustice.

End (55).

Some Points on Anger II (54)

Point 11

The other egos don’t have the force, rather anger has the force and the other egos rely on the force of anger to have their desire, goal or invested interest fulfilled.

Point 12

Force exists to accomplish things and surmount obstacles. That is the legitimate role of force in creation. We all need force in life as well as for the endeavours of the spirit.

Point 13

The role of force in relation to the essence is to protect the essence and to provide it with the impulse to accomplish or achieve its goals.

Point 14

There are two ways of working on anger. The first way is to eliminate the obstacle. The second way is to sacrifice the desire for the goal. The first way targets anger and the second way targets the ego behind anger.

Point 15

As soon as the obstacle in front of the goal is removed anger disappears.

Point 16

A master or a person without anger will surmount obstacles using force but not violence or force that goes against themselves or others. Their force is free, not conditioned.

Point 17

There is the use of imagination to remove the obstacle: in the negative sense (anger) and in the positive sense (wisdom, consciousness).

Point 18

What we can’t get with conviction or reason we get with corrupted force which is violence. That is why we get angry because need force to convince others to solve the problem in our particular way.

Point 19

Anger damages our image before ourselves and others.

Point 20

Anger does not take into account cause and effect. It blinds us to the effects of the actions of anger.

End (54). 

Some Points on Anger I (53)

Introduction

The following three posts are a list of some salient points on the very human characteristic of anger, or in Gnostic terms the ‘I’ of Anger.

These points if considered carefully will help you to better understand how anger works in the human being. And understanding always brings a change in us, a change in our perception and what is the most important of all a change in our actions.

So I end this introduction, wishing the best in your studies of anger and may these 32 points provide you with light on anger so that you can become free of it.

Point 1

Anger is the protector of the structure of the ego (it never comes alone).

Point 2

It is impossible to get angry without words and thoughts (we can’t get angry without thoughts, words and concepts).

Point 3

It is principally the use of force to remove an obstacle.

Point 4

Anger always has a goal or an objective.

Point 5

Desire is present in every manifestation of anger (anger is an effect ego, the ego behind the anger is the cause ego, which is some sort of desire).

Point 6

The stronger the ego behind anger the stronger the anger will be.

Point 7

There is no anger without a sense of loss, harm, damage, disadvantage, injustice, breach of safety etc.

Point 8

Anger comes when the essence or consciousness in us perceives a void or a lack of force.

Point 9

Anger is a lack of conviction (it lacks reason or truth, it uses force as a reason, and lacks the force of reason).

Point 10

Anger is the conditioned use of force that becomes violence. The force in anger is conditioned by relativity and duality. As anger is the force used to remove obstacles and as it is conditioned force, it uses force against others or sometimes ourselves to remove that obstacle. Our essence uses force but in an intelligent way that does not harm ourselves and others.

Daily Review (52)

Very Useful to Review our Day

It is very useful to do a review of our daily life. It helps us to keep up to date with what is happening within ourselves, psychologically and esoterically. It also helps us to keep our work in order.

The Practice

This practice of reviewing our day is to check-in within ourselves, to come home so to speak. When we do check-in with ourselves we see our inner urgencies, and these are the things that we should tackle first.

Inner Urgencies

Our inner urgencies are usually things that we do not understand about ourselves. They are usually egos that have a desire, a complaint or protest within us that we do not understand.

When all of our forces are outside of ourselves, it is difficult to check-in within ourselves and review our day.

 

What do we Find when we Check-in with Ourselves?

What do we find? Lust, pride, regret, unfulfilled desires, the lament over the past, dread of the future.

Strong Desires

Some desires that are so strong that we think we may not be able to resist. These strong desires produce division in us. We have such a strong desire in the ego and a strong desire in the work on ourselves that we get divided. If we decide for the work we feel that we are missing out on something big and we feel regret, lament and some pain. Well it is the ego that feels that pain.

Eternal Principle of the Work on Ourselves

The principle always stands, the work always makes us happier, will fulfilling that desire make us happier? If that desire is lust, it will not really make us happier will it? From previous experiences we ended up crying, how can lust make us happier?

End (52).

In-Depth Contact with Our Psychology (51)

Introduction

I think what is so important in the work on oneself is the in-depth contact with our psychology. We usually have a very superficial contact with our psychology and this type of contact or acquaintance does not really help or transform us, but the deep knowledge of ourselves really transforms us, and that is the one that is worthwhile making efforts to attain.

Unsatisfied

One may really feel unsatisfied with their day when one has not made deep contact with their psychology. When one does not have deep contact with their psychology they feel a certain lacking and a missing out on something.

In-Depth Knowledge is Satisfying

The in-depth knowledge of our ourselves is self-discovery and revelation which leads to transformation and also to comprehension and satisfaction.

To have in-depth contact with ourselves is to probe our subconscious and to shed light onto our own darkness. It is essentially to bring light into our darkness and this is our duty. Our duty is two-fold to make our light shine and to fulfil our duty of creating the solar bodies.

Making our Light Shine

The more light we create the more we make our light shine. The way to increase our light is to shed our light onto the darkness within our psychology and make the darkness light. This is done in many ways, but one very simple way to do it is to ask ourselves deep questions about what we have just observed within ourselves (a thought, an emotion) in a given moment.

How can we Increase Our Light?

Ask yourself, is it really true, then invert the thought bringing the topic of the thought back to you. Then that is where we gain insight about our self. This is excellent or marvellous when we have a thought, a critical thought about another person and then we invert the thought and bring it back to ourselves and apply the thought to ourselves. We usually discover that we are the ones with the issue or problem.

Conclusion

My advice is to always seek during your day an in-depth contact with yourself, with your psychology that is. Ask yourself deep questions about what you observe as to whether it is true or not. Then invert the thought onto yourself to see how the thought applies to us and not really to others, that is where the big discoveries are made.

Once we have made a discovery we can go deeper into that aspect of our self, inquiring deeply into it. I sincerely hope this post inspires you to do this. The in-depth knowledge of our self is really very satisfying.

Expecting Intimate Care from Others (50)

Introduction

Sometimes we can observe a certain desire within ourselves and it is like this desire wants that we be intimately cared for and looked after. We want that someone love us very intimately in their heart and that they love us even more than they love their own selves or look after themselves. This sounds pretty selfish from the outside but it is very honestly something that we feel.

This desire comes to us from time to time and it can even be with us all the time if things in our relationship are not going well.

A Question we have to Ask Ourselves

A question pops up when we are feeling these things that I have outlined in the above introduction, and it is: What about us taking care of someone else in that way? “Can we expect someone to really love us more than they love themselves?”

Answers

Well the answer to those questions is yes and no. We can love someone that way, taking care of their intimate needs (but in balance not to our detriment), and we can’t really expect in reality someone to love us more than they love ourselves.

So we can control how we love, how we give but not how and what we receive. That is something that we often make the mistake in thinking that we control how we are loved and that is where a lot of our problems come from.

There is the Problem

The problem there is really our mistake to expect that someone can love us more than they love themselves.

However being realistic about this does not really help all that much, well it helps us to understand that we are being very selfish, over-selfish and unrealistic I would say, but the desire is still there.

Quenching this Desire

This desire can be quenched by ourselves doing what this desire is really asking for and that is give up on others taking care of ourselves intimately and do it for them and do it for ourselves.

From the Gnostic point of view we would say to take very intimate care of your Being and His or Its destiny and well-being. The more we love our Being and take care of Him/Her/It the more love will come to us. When we are wanting love from others we are forgetting ourselves and we are being mean to our intimate real Being inside us.

To take care of your Being is to take care of yourself because you come from Him and in the very end you are Him.

Self-love is something real but the self-love we have is the love of ourselves through the eyes of others, or in other technical words love for ourselves in relativity and duality.

Conclusion – Actually Taking Intimate Care of your Being

If you pray with loving words and you do all that you can for your Being during the day you are taking intimate care of Him. If you talk to Him opening your heart, expressing your worries and concerns you are being honest, trusting, loving and intimate with yourself and your Being.

Maybe that is what this desire is driving you to achieve and to do.

Love as the Only Solution/Escape (49)

Introduction

Sometimes we struggle immensely in life over why we are not loved by people in general, and above all by people who are ‘meant’ to love us, such as partners, spouses, children, family and friends. Truly we can really suffer, from bouts of disappointment like depression to bouts of intense anger and ill-will. You know what the solution or the way to get out of such a terrible rut is to love, forget about receiving love and give love. This post explains way this is the best option all of the time.

Receiving Love

Receiving love can be really great but not so great when it stops or drops in frequency, intensity, duration and quality. We often start to think that something is wrong and that the person does not love us anymore or that we have done something for the person to not love us or that we are not good enough which is one of the worst emotions we can feel.

The Art of Receiving Love

There is a way to receive love from others and we have to know it. We have to teach ourselves actually how to receive and give love. However, because this section is about receiving love, we need to find a way to receive love that does not lead to pain later on, and curiously when we start to feel pain we start to give pain out.

The way to receive love is to receive it with an open mind and heart and with gratitude but never becoming dependent on it. Never to start to see that we only exist or we are only valid when we receive love from others. If the perception of ourselves or our self-valuation or self-worth is based on or is referenced to or is relative to the amount, quality, duration and intensity of love received then we are really going to suffer. Why you may ask, well the answer is simple. It is because we can not control the love others give us (we try though but that does not really work for us) and so there will always be times when we don’t receive love and or we receive less love than before and therefore we will feel pain, of course if we still think and feel in the same old way that receiving love is the only reason for our existence.

Only Receiving Brings Suffering

We suffer because we are very one sided we only want to receive and maybe the reason why we are not receiving any love is due to karma, that is we have not given out love. Karma manifesting as the pain we feel, it is there to teach us, that is to teach us that we need to love too.

Controlling Love

Basically the only way you can control the amount of love you receive is to give lots of love yourself. We can always control how much love we give, but to control how much others give us is not good at all. It always leads us into trouble. We actually end up ruining that which we love and want love from. You know sometimes when something is in our heart we can not stop loving it, put whatever you want to love in your heart, that is a key that never fails. Once something is in your heart you will never stop loving it.

Giving Love

When we are unhappy, disappointed and we are not receiving love, we actually in our mind go against the other person and we don’t think very highly of them at all. We are disliking them actually, just observe that the next time you feel that you are not receiving love. We become less generous, less, friendly and less open and good willed toward them. We are not loving them in our mind and heart and how can we expect them realistically speaking to love us back or to love us more when we are not loving them. That is crazy but we actually do think and feel that way. But if we are to give love we will get it back and if you open your mind and heart others will be like that towards us too.

The Solution

The solution is to give love and if you do it you will see how magically things change and turn around. Basically stop being demanding and give love, we when we do that feel much better, because we are giving love and we are polarising ourselves with love and so we feel love and when we feel love we are in love and giving, receiving all melt in together into the one state of love.

A limit

Of course though there is a limit and there it is if the person does not love you back and mistreats and disrespects the honest love that you give them, then we need to drop our love back a notch or two. That is easy to do if we are not dependent on the other person. That is why so many people stay with partners that are abusive, because they are dependent on them and as soon as that dependence finishes or abates the one getting abused feels free to leave.

You know we can only really love consciously when we are not attached or dependent. We have to discern when this limit or line has been crossed, but don’t worry we will know it naturally, almost instinctively in fact.

Conclusion

The main key here is to take away any ill-will in your mind and heart and open up your mind and heart to the person and give love. Depart from yourself, stop being worried about how much love you are receiving and give love instead, and by the law of cause and effect you will receive it. Just wanting and waiting to receive love will not bring it to you! You must also understand that another person’s love does not make you complete, you are already complete, because even if that person does not love you nothing in you stops working, your life goes on, your heart still beats and you still have your inner divinity within you loving you and sending you its life force.

Principal Psychological Profile (PPP) (48)

Introduction

This post among many more to come about the Principal Psychological Profile, commonly known as the PPP describes what the PPP is.

What is the Principal Psychological Profile?

The principal psychological profile or chief characteristic is a part of our psychology. As the name suggests it is a very important part, actually it is the predominant part. It is the part that colours our psychology, it is the part that makes up our psychology and it is the part that forms the nature of our egoic psychology.

The PPP is Ever-Present

The PPP is something that is present in virtually every one of our psychological processes. It is the one that sets the mood to our everyday egoic psychology and it is one that sets the backdrop to our psychology.

It is something that stays more than goes, other egos come and go but the PPP is mostly always there forming the nature of our egoic psychology and it is so natural that we don’t know that it is there and we don’t suspect that it is there. That is why it is so hard to find out what it is when we decide to look for it. We often overlook it and think that it is lust, fear or anger because they can be very intense in most people, if an ego comes and goes then it is not the PPP, the PPP stays more then comes and goes.

Egoic Structure

Our egoic psychology certainly has a structure it is not an ad hoc random mess it has a structure and centre to that structure is the PPP. The PPP is the central framework of that structure and if our egoic structure were a tree it would be the trunk of the tree and the branches would be the egos, the seven capital egos and the leaves would be the many facets.

Behind our Fall

The PPP is behind our esoteric or spiritual fall and it is the one that provoked our fall, so in it is a lot of karma and behind it are certain causal factors.

5 Years of Work

Master Samael said that it takes a person 5 years of observation and work to discover and concretely confirm the existence and specific identity of ones’ PPP.

50% of Our Egoic Structure

Master Samael said that if one was able to dissolve their PPP they indeed would have done 50% of the work required to fully dissolve all of their egoic structure.

In the Next Post

In the post following this one, we will talk about some more characteristics of the PPP and this will lead us onto some of the ways that we can discover it in ourselves. We will following this talk about how we can work on so to weaken it.

Conclusion

I think that I could conclude this psost by saying that to accelerate the dissolution of one’s egoic structure knowing one’s PPP is crucial. If we work on it we will inadvertedly weaken all the other egos. You know if we follow Dante’s advice from the second book of his Divine Comedy we will see that Pride could well be a candidate to be a PPP as he described that when pride was overcome/dissolved in the first terrace of the island of purgatory, the six remaining P’s (‘P’ standing for peccatum, sin in Latin) marked on his forehead, where each P stood for a capital sin were weakened.

When it is Lust and When it is Not! (47)

When it is Lust!

It is lust when we engage in sexuality, even in thought and emotion and we do not have love, respect, care, consideration etc. within us. I tis also lust when we are trapped in or are only focussed on sensation, senses and matter. These four major indicators: devoid of love, care, respect etc., senses, sensations and matter are sure signs that lust is in our human machine.

Lust always, always refocusses sexuality into these bottles or conditioners.

When it is not Lust!

We usually think that no sexuality or no sex or abstinence is no lust. That is true to some degree but there can always be a heavy amount of lust in our mind.

The general indication as to know when it is not lust is when there is sexuality and there is love and the main focus is spirituality or a spiritual purpose above senses, sensations and matter. Or there is of course no sexuality and the mind and emotions are completely clear.

Conclusion

Use these indications to know when lust is in your human machine. Be honest with yourself and you will always be able to tell.

End (47).

Separate Lust from Sex (46)

When it is Lust!

It is lust when we engage in sexuality, even in thought and emotion and we do not have love, respect, care, consideration etc. within us. It is also lust when we are trapped in or are only focussed on sensation, senses and matter. These four major indicators: devoid of love, care, respect etc., senses, sensations and matter are sure signs that lust is in our human machine.

When it is not Lust!

We usually think that no sexuality or no sex or abstinence is no lust. That is true to some degree but there can always be a heavy amount of lust in our mind.

The general indication as to know when it is not lust is when there is sexuality and there is love and the main focus is spirituality or a spiritual purpose above senses, sensations and matter. Or there is of course no sexuality and the mind and emotions are completely clear.

Separate Lust from Sex

So in the case where we have sexuality but no lust we have to separate lust from sex. We think that they are the same thing but they are not. Lust and sex are very different. Lust uses sex but sex itself has nothing to do with lust.

So if this separation is made, there can be pure sexuality without lust. Lust always diverts sexuality into the senses, sensations and matter. It always refocusses sexuality into these bottles or conditioners.

Sex is Itself Free from Lust

Sex is the means of by which creation happens, I really don’; think the creators that gave this creative power to men, animals and the plants meant for lust to be created. Lust is not creative, it sabotages the creative force and ruins it, lust destroys actually. Sex is a great creative power and is the life force of the Being and is also one’s life energy and vitality which has nothing to do with lust. In fact when one works on lust one’s vitality and energy increases dramatically.

Conclusion

It is very advantageous to make this separation within oneself so that we can start to use our sexual force without the interference of lust and we can come to open the door of the sexual mysteries that unfortunately human beings due to lust know nothing about at all!

End (46).

The Ego is in our Genes (42)

Surprising at First but Makes Sense!

To someone who has worked on the ego for a while, this statement that the ego is in our genes becomes ever-so gradually more apparent, especially in relation to some egos. It is not so apparent in all the egos but in some, in the rather large ones that we have it can be quite apparent.

Parents

If you have the luck of having your parents still with you, you can by observation really come to verify this statement.

The theory goes in Gnosis that the egos that we have, have a genetic component to them. We actually inherit in our egos certain characteristics that are present in the egos of our parents. This is even true when it comes to our personality. Our personality has many traits or characteristics that come directly from our parents.

This does not apply to every characteristic in us, it only seems to apply to some of our personality traits. Mind you environment and impressions builds our personality and much of our environment that we are brought up in, is strongly coloured by our parent’s personality and egos.

Some Egos

It can happen that some of the egos we have, repeat or strongly wish to repeat the dramas and mistakes that our parents have made. In a way the more we know about the egos of our parents the more we can get to know the future desires of the egos that we have. Mind you, this does not apply to every ego that we have, only very particular ones, such as lust, anger, pride, self-love etc.

Conclusion

In our genes are the genes are of our parents and in our genes are certain characteristics that are also in our egos. By careful observation of our egos and the egos of our parents we can verify this, by noting the similarities between their egos and ours.

So then, our Divine Mother has a great work to do when we work in the elimination of eh ego, she has to work within our genes to eliminate the ego from within our genes. So then in conclusion, the work of the dissolution of the ego modifies our genetic structure and therefore our very own biology.

The Sleeping Essence does not Know it is Wrong (45)

Sleeping Essence?

By sleeping essence we mean the essence trapped or bottled in the ego. By ‘bottle’ (symbolic) we are referring to conditioning, from the psychological point of view the ego is a degree of conditioning. From the esoteric point of view the ego is a metaphysical entity or a bottle or container trapping a piece of essence.

The sleeping essence is the conditioned essence, its conditioning has trapped it into thinking, feeling and acting in accordance with its conditioning and this very same conditioning has also lulled it to sleep.

The conditioning of the essence is very peculiar, it is a conditioning that is polarised in duality. The sleeping essence is polarised in such a way that the sleeping essence processes itself or generates thoughts, feelings and actions in a way that is opposite to the ways of the Being.

Sleeping Essence does not Know its Own Conditioning

The very strange thing is that the sleeping essence does not know it is conditioned and furthermore it does not know that it is wrong.

IT is up to our consciousness and the free essence that we have to understand that the way that a given ego or sleeping essence acts is wrong. Then we, being our consciousness and free essence, have to tell that essence that is sleeping in the ego that it is wrong. We have to address it with force and with the help of the Divine Mother and get the message to it that it is wrong.

The Sleeping Essence Listens

Believe it or not the sleeping essence can listen to us and can obey. When the sleeping essence starts to wake up a bit and realise that it is wrong the force of the ego decreases remarkably. This is truly amazing!

Conclusion

Strive with urgency to understand that the function that any ego is fulfilling in life is wrong and that it can be done better and done by the Being instead. Realise deeply with your consciousness and free essence that its way of fulfilling its function is wrong and then begin to address it, telling it that is wrong, and if you have true comprehension and you do it sincerely you will find that the ego decreases massively in force. This really works!

End (45).

Trust as an Antidote to Fear (44)

Introduction

Lust, vanity and pride all work with images. These egos project images and desire that we fulfil or act out those images.

Being on the Ocean Shield

There was in the West Australian a photo of the Ocean Shield which is a large Australian scientific ocean going vessel participating in the search efforts, and I imagined myself being on that ship. Only a few seconds passed and I was feeling very uneasy. Being in the middle of the ocean with thousands of kilometres of deep blue water between land in any direction made me quite frightened actually.

Trust is the Remedy

The remedy to that fear is trust. In fact trust is a remedy to many of our psychological defects, especially where fear is mixed into those defects.

There are people are happiest on a ship in the middle of the ocean far away from land, they feel free without the slightest worry. Yet there are others who like me who get filled with anxiety and debilitating fear when on a ship just a few kilometres out to sea. The main reason why they feel so fine is because of trust. When the young Australian sailor Jessica Watson (youngest person in the world to circumnavigate the globe) was asked how she coped during storms she said something to the effect of: ‘batten down the hatches and trust in the boat”. So those people who feel fine on a boat in the middle of the ocean in a boat do so because they trust in the boat.

They trust in the laws of physics namely the law of buoyancy. They trust that that law will hold true and they trust in the construction of the ship, that it has sailed many times before and has been through many storms and has survived. So trusting in the ship’s track record and in the fact that the laws of physics don’t change we can relax and put our fears to rest.

Trust in Four Factors

We have to trust in these four things, which are: 1. Life, 2. The Work, 3. The Path and 4. The Being. If we trust in those four factors in each given circumstance of our life fear, anxiety and worry certainly abate. In each situation in life will require that we place our trust in one or more of these factors.

Conclusion

Whenever you are scared remember trust. Trust in something belonging to these four factors that were mentioned above. Do it sincerely and and repeatedly until you feel the fear abate. It really works, try it!

Facing Death in the Middle of the Ocean (43)

Introduction

Recently, seeing in the news all these planes and ships searching for the wreckage of the missing Malaysian Airlines flight MH370 in the middle of the Indian Ocean some 1000kms off the coast of Western Australia made me think about being in the middle of the ocean and about death.

Facing Death in the Middle of the Ocean

We have to I think be realistic, imagine it does happen that we are in the middle of an ocean far away from land and far away from any other vessel and our ship begins to sink. We may pray to God asking him to save us. But can He or will He?

How can he when we are so far away from land and any other human being, miracles can happen but we are on that sinking boat for a reason. We can most certainly pray to God asking Him to rescue us, and if He wants He surely can do it. But if not, it is His will! Perhaps we do not have the merit to be miraculously saved, while others who are just as important as us, who have loved ones just like us are left behind.

Will He Save Me?

What about if we pray to Him asking that he helps us to accept the situation, and to face it with courage and as consciously as possible? Dying is the last thing that we do in life, it should really be our best, noblest and most dignifying action that we carry out while we have breath in our body. We really have to die sometime and why to always try to avoid it? Why to think that we are special and different to others who are in the same situation as ourselves. Why not be as awakened as possible and to pass consciously with acceptance and with courage into the world beyond before the greater realities of nature.

I would rather break that illusion of being different because I am working on myself and believing my Being will save me when he can’t or He may not be able to. The best is to ask that he gives us tremendous courage to pass through the experience of death as consciously as possible and that He gives us another chance at our self-realisation in the future.

Destiny

Maybe Gnostically speaking, if we have developed enough spiritually in the sense that we have defeated our mechanical destiny and we know how to put our physical body into a state of Jinas or into the fourth dimension we can save our physical body. However, if we are not in that situation we are on a sinking boat for some reason and that reason is karma. The divine Law may not approve that we escape this death, it could well be our destiny. The Pistis Sophia says that the law of destiny has one aim and it is to take us to the death that has been written or determined for us.

Surrender

Once we accept our death, despite how unexpected and quickly it has come we are ready to surrender ourselves to our God. Surrender yourselves into the hands of your God, knowing that you are His soul and that you are going to be free of your body and that you are going to follow his design for you.

Relax

Enjoy the experience, relax, heighten your awareness and surrender yourselves through the arms of Poseidon to your God. Don’t be alarmed the body is strong and it has to be overpowered by something, by much water, by large waves, by tiredness etc.

Conclusion

The facets of the consciousness can be awakened though a series of small lessons in life, especially when it comes to death. Death holds such a rich ground for us to awaken. In fact it could well be that the secret meaning of a person’s life is to die consciously, and if that is the case then we will really find in death a lot to awaken to, because the secret mandate of our life is to die consciously, our life then demands that we awaken to death so that we can die consciously.

End (43).

Mystical Death is More than Being Good (42)

Being Good

Being good is relativity is much better than being bad and at times in our life when the ego is really trying to have its way with us, we yearn more than anything to be good. This is all of course fine, excellent and wonderful and can not be knocked, especially in the times when we are experiencing an intense temptation to do something bad or inconvenient for ourselves or others. However, when we place ourselves in the field of mystical death, being good must be transcended, because as you will experience we can become stagnated in the ‘being good’ level, and that stagnation stops us from dying in more death and it even hinders us from dying completely. It even in fact hinders our inner revolution.

Renunciation is Key

The key to overcoming this stagnation in the ‘being good’ level or the key to really dying in ourselves is renunciation. We have to give up something, we have to definitely let go of something, and that something could be a concept, a thought, a feeling, an idea, a fantasy, a perception, an attitude etc.

If we are able to renounce to something then what we are doing is chipping a block out of that the structure of that ego. Hence we are dying. Being good after a while becomes mechanical and in order to die we have to go further and renunciation is the way.

Conclusion

To know that we are dying within ourselves and to overcome the stagnation of ‘being good’ we must renounce to aspects or characteristics of the ego we are trying to dissolve. I want to stress at this point that we should not become bad or make mistakes or do wrong or bad things to break ‘being good’ stagnation. To do that would be really stupid, because that will only bring you karma which will hinder you further from dissolving that ego.

Daily Death is All that Matters! (41)

Change is What Matters

As Master Samael said in his book “A Treatise of Revolutionary Psychology”, all that really matters in our life is definitive radical change for the better. To embody and live by this statement, is really the goal of any sincere Gnostic person. To remain the same, wretched, stale, mechanical and heavily laden with suffering and mistaken ways of thinking and feeling is not at all pleasant.

To bring the new to us beyond our beloved suffering is very difficult but is worthwhile, because in doing that there is freedom, new knowledge, light, a new way of living and there is freedom and the end of a heavy karmic debt.

To effect any change in ourselves can certainly be done by everyone, but to fix any change inside of ourselves and make the new change part of our nature, something special is needed, and that something special is mystical death, and that is why mystical death is needed.

Mystical Death is a life-long work, it is one’s life project and is processed over time. The more consistent we are in working on ourselves producing change or transformation inside of ourselves the more we die and therefore the more we contribute to the lifelong project of dissolving the ego and making the Being in us to flourish.

Mechanical Death

We may try to die in ourselves every day, this is really marvellous, though with our daily efforts a degree of mechanicity could creep in and so our practices of death with the help of the Divine Mother and the mantram KRIM, can become ineffective. To avoid this from happening we have to work with will and heart. Really wanting the change and really yearning for the change.

When you chant the mantra KRIM and are praying to the Divine Mother beg her intensely and chant the mantra KRIM intensely with alert attention, wishing that the ego you are asking to be dissolved dies in you. This way of asking for death is most effective, so much more than not doing it, and so much more than a person praying and chanting the mantram KRIM but daydreaming for the whole duration of the prayer and vocalisation. 

Conclusion

If we really want death, the doors are laid open for us, we get so much help, so then to help ourselves to die effectively we must sincerely want to die in ourselves. This never fails!

Lust Does not have the Right!

Lust Thinks it has the Right

The ego or ‘I’ of lust thinks that it has the right to bother another person from what it is that they are doing and try and lure them into an activity that they definitely don’t need and were not intending on.

For example a person of the opposite sex walking down a street to the corner deli to buy the newspaper was not thinking in meeting up specifically with you and being lured into something especially if you don’t know that person. This is reality but the ego of lust lives in a different reality and somehow believes that the person in interested in being lured.

The ego of lust is really outside of reality and what’s more it thinks that it has the right to go and impose itself on another human being.

Lack of Respect

The cause of such a ridiculous way of thinking, feeling and acting is a lack of respect for the other person and being outside of reality due to having come to believes that what is shown on TV and the internet is reality. It is not reality that a person can be walking down the street and then by means of some crazy attraction end up in a few minutes undressing and moving towards some sort of sexual activity. That only happens in movies where everything is fake, contrived, planned, fabricated and manufactured that way.

Conclusion

Respect others, see them a full, complete human being and that to treat them with lust is disrespectful, it is like insulting, bothering, scaring another person for absolutely selfish reasons. Also wake up to reality and accept reality, what is shown in movies is 100% fake, that is not how things work in reality. Just ask anybody if you don’t believe it.
