How are you? -Not bad...

Hi Vadim I really liked your words of truthfulness . I'm guesses that is what most people will find when it comes to doing this work . That once the pain is gone, so is their motivation to continue the work . Moreover, those people have found exactly what it was that they were looking for knowing it or not . But reaching truth is another thing, because that search reaches the roots and the fruits of life, and that takes a spiritual yearning that goes beyond normal life, and the here and now . Very good Points .. How do you get those spiritual things , and tools to be able to experience life from the real ? Want those things more , and practice making those things the center of your life. Knock and it Shall be Open !

Peace and Love

Hello Vadim

I know what you are saying, it was the same for me.

My goal was to escape the pain, but when i was able to do that, the motivation diminish.

So I started to strive for consciousness instead of striving to escaping the pain.

Thanks Vadim...

we all go through esoteric nights, sometimes they last for weeks and months. the secret is never to forget yourself (easier said than done I know). peace

Thank you, Guys!

As the quote for today from Belzebuub's site says:

"Darkness is unconsciousness; Light is Consciousness. We should allow Light to penetrate our own darkness, obviously Light has the power to defeat darkness."

Samael Aun Weor

Strength to all of us, let us remember ourselves and where we go. Strength in our efforts in everyday life because their rewards are beyond time, and even eternity. Strength to all of us to be, so we can become and Be, and we know well, that we can do it, don't we?

Vadim

Hi Vadim,

I know what you mean ... oftentimes I feel closest to the divine when my life is at its worst ... when I feel the need to beg for help and admit my shortcomings, knowing that the only way out is through divine help.

But once out of that situation, there can be a deceptive feeling of self-sufficiency - that I am "ok". When I recognise this, it's almost like I long for the "bad times" again so I can feel close to the divine once more. Maybe subconsciously this attitude keeps me in a cycle - a treadmill - of up and down, close and distant...

What I need to strive for is more consistency in my relationship with the divine, recognising my real condition, and the enormous help I need, in the "good times" as well as the "bad". To always be hungry for more...

Thank you, Vicki!

It seems to be universal...perhaps most of us prefer to pray when we suffer and forget to say thank you to Divine for whatever good we have for now...

Consistency for me is perhaps to learn relating to my life in a very short time-frame...maybe just one minute at a time...
Reward ourselves with 60 seconds of being fully conscious, awake, and alive..

This will very likely awaken the appetite for one more minute of life fully, and for more, etc...then at least self-remembrance is not really an issue...quite easy to remember about consistency for one minute at a time.
But minutes make an hour and hours make days and days make life!

And that's also so true for me what you say about enormous help from Divine that we need...
To deserve it, what are they looking for? "Ask and you will be given", "help those who help themselves", "god treats us like we treat others", be strong, honest, fair, helpful in our turn with whatever we can, be active...?

Best wishes... and thanks again to everyone for your comments.

Thank you for posting this blog it applies to what I have been wondering about with regards to how the gnostic path is through the years. I apprecaite your wisdom :)
