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.

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!

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!

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.
