Gurdjieff and P.D. Ouspensky, mainly on papers in the final, fifth volume. It could almost be a second appendix to that collection. In the aspect of value, however, Selections from Meetings in 1953 can stand alone; it has the potential to show the perceptive reader a challenging pattern for the true conduct of life. Even to those familiar with The Work, a telling phrase in Nicoll's inimitable style may pierce the veil obscuring their understanding of a vital part of the teaching\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan size=\"2\"\u003eIt is not surprising that this selection contains potent ideas; it reflects Nicoll's thoughts on The Work at the culmination of his life and his teaching.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan size=\"2\"\u003eThe commentaries here published for the first time were read to members at the Nicoll group house at Great Amwell, a village near Ware, between March and August 1953 and all except one elaborate on commentaries given in the same period and published in Volume 5 of The Commentaries. The exception, Singing Your Song, amplifies a paper read at Great Amwell House a decade earlier, in February 1943. Its very title suggests that it owes its selection to Nicoll's down-to-earth manner of dealing with esoteric questions. It is an approach that in this short paper opens up new ways of observing the results of Internal Considering, one of the big ideas of the The Work.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan size=\"2\"\u003eMost of the new commentaries were responses to group members' questions about sections of the readings or explanations that they had not understood. The final one, however, is a report of Nicoll's words immediately after his paper had been read at his final group meeting, on 16th August 1953. Beryl Pogson who, with publisher Vincent Stuart, read the paper to that meeting has quoted passages of her teacher's last meeting in her biography Maurice Nicoll: A Portrait. A full record of this talk, together with the group members' questions that occasioned it, is published herein.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan size=\"2\"\u003eIt is a fitting climax to the book, dealing with the observation of attitudes to The Work and also presenting a strong case for Nicoll's belief that, for all of us, it is self-conceit that keeps out consciousness. He explains how the remedy can be found in the inner meaning of the Gospel phrase \"Blessed are the meek\".\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan size=\"2\"\u003eNicoll was one of the most committed of Work teachers to Gurdjieff's revelation that at its core his system of knowledge and practice is Esoteric Christianity. There was none of the calming piousness of exoteric religion in Nicoll's approach.

Our conceit might lead us to imagine we are exempt from this helpless category, but then he points out that Negative Emotions are always lies and we all continually enjoy them.

A trace of the worlds of words in all his works in English, including The Herald of Coming Good and the unpublished Struggle of the Magicians, reveals Gurdjieff's predilection for etymological and figurative play on words that inform sense pertinent to purpose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn particular, Gurdjieff’s command of English is paramount to his perspective on human life and its possibilities of development. Though some readers have thought that Gurdjieff relied completely on his co-editor, A. R.

His puns, recondite etymological forays and historical-linguistic allusions challenged his readers and listeners to question their understanding of his discourses.

The Tyrant Within chronicles which are claimed to be the main observable, self-confirmable facts behind one of life’s great mysteries. These revelations indicate that an influence emanating from the dark side of our psyche governs our every thought, feeling and act, every decision, every reaction – but never in our best interest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt may be difficult at first to accept that this invisible element is an ineradicable weakness in our – that is, everyone’s – nature that subconsciously we will do anything to keep secret, even from our ‘conscious’ selves. Soon, however, the reports of people’s observations of their inner life are likely to render plausible such an obstacle to our, not only happiness, but even normality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe are told that if we could separate from this harmful power our lives would improve dramatically. But how to tackle an invisible force? Paradoxically, the Tyrant itself makes this possible. Fourth Way founder Gurdjieff taught that this hidden, powerful ‘weakness’ devises a deceptive alter ego as its public face – though this persona is not as apparent to the person concerned as to his or her fellows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, persistent self-observation can disclose personal idiosyncrasies produced by this alter ego that can be traced to the ruling influence.

We were both attending a Council Meeting of the Francis Bacon Society in South Kensington and stayed to talk afterwards with some of the other members. She told us that she had returned after the war from the West Country to her home in Ovingdean in response to inner instructions to write her Autobiography which she had now completed. She had thought that this meant that she was to return home to die, but she found herself, at the age of seventy-four, still very much alive. And indeed, I had never before seen anyone of that age who had such an air of youth and vitality and such a lively spirit shining through her dark eyes.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis was the beginning of a delightful friendship which lasted until her death in September 1958 at the age of eighty-four. We had many talks in London and it was not long before I went down to stay with her at \"The Four Winds\" in Ovingdean. She had begun to write a new series of automatic scripts on the mystery of dimensions, a subject which I had been studying for many years. I found the clear formulations in these scripts most enlightening. We would discuss them and my questions seemed to invite the scripts that followed.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eMiss Theobald would write at night. In the morning she would type all that had been written, and then she would drive me into the country and on our return we would sit in her garden with its view of the Downs and the sea, or in her Sun-Parlour among the flowers, and read the scripts aloud and ponder on them. She was no recluse. Friends continually visited her, and she enjoyed her days in London. She was interested in all that went on, particularly in the life an welfare of the nation. At this time she was strong and active and had a most lively and penetrating mind.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eIn June, 1952 Miss Theobald had a haemorrhage and lost the sight of one eye. She recovered from this but had to lead a quieter life and stop driving her car. She was, however, able to continue her writing, learned to touch-type, and accepted the blow to her sight with complete equanimity. But she now began to feel her age and for the most part stayed at home, spending much time in her garden, and enjoying the conversation of her friends.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eOn her eightieth birthday Miss Theobald gave a party to all her friends, many of whom had once been in her Dance Groups. She had had privately printed a small booklet called Death and After for the occasion. She told us she had received inner information that the next four years were to be very difficult for her but that joy and peace awaited her when she reached the age of eighty-four. Now, the day of her birthday, January 13th, 1954, had been a very strange one. I had been staying with her. During the morning there was a violent thunderstorm, the electricity fused, and we were left in the dark with no possibility of cooking or heating except by means of a tiny oil-stove. Candles were lit and we spent a quiet afternoon in the darkness which continued. Then light and heat became once more available in time to prepare supper for the party. I felt at the time that this augured a year of shock, if not darkness, and this was borne out as that year she suffered a stroke which put an end to her automatic writing and she was obliged to live very quietly from that time until her death four years later. This was a very difficult period for her as she could no longer read, being now almost blind, and she missed the companionship of her inspirational writing from which she had continuously drawn her inner strength since her early youth.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSome year before she died she had asked me to take charge of all her writings in the event of her death and to publish her Autobiography first and the other material later. She had inner instructions that nothing was to be published in her life time, during which she was to remain in seclusion. She was a true mystic to whom it made no difference whether she were in or out of the body. During the eleven years of my friendship with her I had been a continual witness of a way of life lived on three levels of consciousness.'\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDetails\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISBN: \u003cstrong\u003e9789072395429\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: New\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublisher: \u003cstrong\u003eEureka Editions\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Eureka Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49080932139356,"sku":"","price":26.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/6333\/3724\/files\/IMG_9992.jpg?v=1721399998"},{"product_id":"real-worlds-of-gurdjieff-paul-beekman-taylor","title":"Real Worlds Of G.I.

For few would perceive any advantage in having their fond hopes and beliefs, their world picture, deliberately deleted, a painful exercise in unknowing that the Tales promises to execute. On the other hand, that very point, the misconception that \u003cstrong\u003eBeelzebub\u003c\/strong\u003e is predominantly destructive, makes it a pity that \u003cstrong\u003eThe True Myth\u003c\/strong\u003e is not more widely available. For those seeking glimpses of reality should know that the term \"unknowing\" means more than an absence of information; it implies a sweeping away of nonsense to make room for useful knowledge, which is \u003cstrong\u003eBeelzebub's\u003c\/strong\u003e function.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBeryl Pogson's\u003c\/strong\u003e approach to the ideas hidden in the Tales evidently assumes that \u003cstrong\u003eGurdjieff\u003c\/strong\u003e does not demolish existing notions without giving clues how they can be supplanted by essential ideas ideas with the potential to help develop a responsive person's whole being. It is typical of what we see here of her teaching that she illustrates the need to avoid a void of this type by drawing a moral from the gospel parable of the room swept clean of a devil that then attracts seven worse devils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe True Myth\u003c\/strong\u003e examples of her teaching are not so much about explaining what is or what that word might mean, as much as that might be desired, but in translating \u003cstrong\u003eGurdjieff's\u003c\/strong\u003e imaginative ideas into practical work. The book is a record, mostly verbatim, of \u003cstrong\u003eBeryl Pogson's\u003c\/strong\u003e talks on these ideas to her Work groups in southern England. (The Work is the term given to \u003cstrong\u003eGurdjieff's\u003c\/strong\u003e \"system\" or \"method\" of human development; he is not seen as the originator of the \u003cstrong\u003eFourth Way\u003c\/strong\u003e, but as the agent of its resurfacing in our era.)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the main, she puts \u003cstrong\u003eBeelzebub's\u003c\/strong\u003e ideas to work by assuming that its characters represent psychological elements of Everyman, particularly of course as represented by the pupils in her group and, interestingly, of \u003cstrong\u003eGurdjieff\u003c\/strong\u003e himself. The question-answer format of \u003cstrong\u003eThe True Myth\u003c\/strong\u003e allows readers to judge whether fresh understanding of themselves is gained by students who accept that the numerous \"unbecoming\" qualities detected by the alien but exceptionally perceptive \u003cstrong\u003eBeelzebub\u003c\/strong\u003e apply to each's own psychology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt does not require the broad hint given by the title for readers to realise that to \u003cstrong\u003eBeryl Pogson\u003c\/strong\u003e the term \"myth\" describes neither a fictional nor a literal account, but a story whose inner meaning lies in its imagery. They are likely to come to feel that both personal and cosmic aspects of these images can be understood more by intuition than by intellectual analysing. According to her reported talks, many images in the Tales can be perceived, and presumably were conceived, with the help of teachings ranging from the Gospels and ancient Mysteries to astrology and the Hermetic code. Her argument that this is because the principles of all the major spiritual disciplines are basically the same makes this eclectic spread of correspondences seem inevitable, and amenable to the \"law\" of analogy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOf course, \u003cstrong\u003eGurdjieff's\u003c\/strong\u003e ideas are not limited to traditional formulations. Here again, \u003cstrong\u003eBeryl Pogson \u003c\/strong\u003eis adept at bringing out the practical application of his more radical teaching, such as in the relative degrees of human consciousness, when his descriptions of the subconscious seem to relate to Jung's findings about the unconscious, and in his universal \"uncertainty\" and \"reciprocal maintenance\" themes, which suggest, in some ways perhaps anticipate, present-day scientific theories. Many of the transformation processes that \u003cstrong\u003eBeelzebub\u003c\/strong\u003e unveils are on a scale to overawe the ordinary seeker of truth, setting goals that seem to require superhuman effort to achieve.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is notable therefore that \u003cstrong\u003eBeryl Pogson\u003c\/strong\u003e stresses that spiritual growth is gradual particularly as shown in her favourite technique of \"doing the next thing\". She says that an inner teacher continually presents us with our next task, the next essential step, but we consistently ignore or reject it as being too trivial, or unpleasant to our False Personality. This is one of several parts of her teaching that recur through this long book. They may give the impression that the compiler, \u003cstrong\u003eBob Hunter\u003c\/strong\u003e, has been more intent on sharing\u003cstrong\u003e Beryl Pogson's \u003c\/strong\u003eteaching than elucidating Beelzebub's intricacies. Even if that were accurate, however, the result shows that, 35 years after her death, she still has a valuable message for those who feel they have more to understand about the invisible side of themselves. \u003cstrong\u003eThe True Myth\u003c\/strong\u003e suggests that had she lived to fulfill her wish to write about \u003cstrong\u003eBeelzebub\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eBeryl Pogson\u003c\/strong\u003e would surely have produced some deep insights into \u003cstrong\u003eGurdjieff's\u003c\/strong\u003e veiled revelations. While that was not to be, this account of how she taught that people on all levels can use the Tales in work on themselves may well serve as the next best thing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISBN: 9072395352\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: New\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublisher:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEureka Editions\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Eureka Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49166150926684,"sku":"","price":26.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/6333\/3724\/files\/IMG_0286.jpg?v=1723040553"},{"product_id":"simple-explanation-of-work-ideas-maurice-nicoll","title":"Simple Explanation of Work Ideas by Maurice Nicoll","description":"\u003ch2\u003eSimple Explanation of Work Ideas by Maurice Nicoll\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeryl Pogson, who was Maurice Nicoll's student for nineteen years and his secretary for fourteen years, had this Simple Explanation of Work Ideas by Maurice Nicoll amongst her papers.

Consider now the Kings in their individual lives. A king is after all but a man and can only play his part to the limit of his being. But he plays it in public, as it were.

He is thus an example for good or evil, showing his people what to imitate, what to avoid.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Crown of gold is the symbol of the highest level known to humanity. It represents Heaven, or the Divine Ruler in the Soul of Man. Richard III coveted it and loved it, but Henry V of all the kings showed the greatest reverence towards the crown and when he wore it at Agincourt he had some inkling probably of its powers of protection. He was not trusting in himself as a man, but only as a King.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen Richard II gave away his Crown he had forgotten the implications of such an act. A King is given a difficult part to play and cannot attempt to play it without all the help of which the Regalia are symbols. The sceptre is the magic wand, giving him power over the element of Air, of the Mind, the Holy Oil protects him, the Orb surmounted by the Cross reminds him that he has to sacrifice himself to his land. Ordinary people in contemplating the grandeur of royalty are given some idea of the highest that may be attained by Man. ...\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDetails\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaperback \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISBN: \u003cstrong\u003e9789072395399\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: New\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublisher:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEureka Editions\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Eureka Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49166303232348,"sku":"","price":22.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/6333\/3724\/files\/1BB6E071-BAB5-472E-9136-EBB0D62557CB.jpg?v=1774464065"},{"product_id":"in-the-east-my-pleasure-lies-by-beryl-pogson","title":"In The East My Pleasure Lies by Beryl Pogson","description":"\u003ch2\u003eIn The East My Pleasure Lies by Beryl Pogson\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Fourth Way Interpretation of Shakespeare's Plays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this age of mass entertainment many people look to the theatre as a means of self-forgetfulness.

In de eerste hoofdstukken vertelt hij over zijn jeugd in die wonderlijke streken, doordrenkt van tradities en legenden, waar de onzichtbare wereld vaak directer en reëler ervaren werd dan de tastbare werkelijkheid om ons heen, over de warme en diepe relatie met zijn vader, over zijn eerste leermeesters en over de jaren van zijn studie en vorming. Dan volgen de hoofdstukken over zijn grote reizen op zoek naar het verborgen weten, voornamelijk in Centraal-Azië, simpele en soms anekdotische verhalen over alledaagse dingen en reisbelevenissen.

Alle vraagstukken van wetenschap, wijsbegeerte, godsdienst en kunst worden strikt wetenschappelijk aan de orde gesteld en benaderd : volgens de psychologische methode, die een herwaardering beoogt van alle waarden, naar hun eigen betekenis, onafhankelijk van de uiterlijke of bijkomstige factoren, waarnaar ze gewoonlijk beoordeeld worden.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDetails\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardcover met stof omslag (redelijke staat, met bescherming) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISBN:\u003cspan\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e9789062715848\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConditie: Goed - Geen aantekeningen \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublisher: \u003cstrong\u003eServire\u003c\/strong\u003e Den Haag, 1950 \u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Eureka Editions ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54011680653660,"sku":"","price":65.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/6333\/3724\/files\/OUS01_86b11ce7-5091-4c3e-b65d-95cc3c0964f1.jpg?v=1740056578"},{"product_id":"op-zoek-naar-het-wonderbaarlijke-ouspensky","title":"Op zoek naar het wonderbaarlijke, fragmenten van een onbekende leer door P.D.

Ouspensky's zoeken naar de waarheid leidde in 1915 tot zijn ontmoeting in Moskou met G.I.Gurdjieff. Deze ontmoeting betekende een keerpunt in Ouspensky's leven want al spoedig kwam hij tot het inzicht dat Gurdjieff een leer bezat die voorziet in een vitale behoefte van de mensheid in deze tijd. Het fascinerende verslag van de periode van acht jaar gedurende welke Ouspensky als Gurdjieffs\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eleerling met hem heeft gewerkt, is te vergelijken bij Plato's weergave van het leven en de persoon van Socrates. Dit helder en met grote eenvoud geschreven boek kan niet nalaten de lezer ervan te overtuigen dat Ouspensky inderdaad een bron ontdekt heeft van ware kennis omtrent de Mens en het Heelal en bovendien een op de praktijk gerichte levensleer die van alle tijden is. Dit zijn geen filosofische of psychologische theorieën, het is een alomvattend inzicht in de problemen van het leven en een volledig stelsel van uitermate concrete aanwijzingen voor de verdieping van ons dagelijks leven. Door de verbluffend nauwkeurige weergave van de gesprekken tussen Gurdjieff en zijn leerlingen en de soms dramatische, soms ook humoristische beschrijving van Ouspensky's eigen commentaren op de ideeën en zijn reacties op de door Gurdjieff gegeven aanwijzingen en oefeningen, geeft dit boek een levend beeld van twee van de meest bijzondere mensen van deze eeuw. Gurdjieff en Ouspensky zijn beide tegen het einde van de veertiger jaren overleden. Hun ideeën evenwel leven voort en verheugen zich in een nog steeds sterk stijgende belangstelling, getuige niet alleen een snel toenemende vraag naar de boeken van Gurdjieff en Ouspensky zelf, maar ook de stroom van nieuwe werken van andere auteurs over de persoon van Gurdjieff en zijn ideeën. In vele centra in het buitenland worden deze ideeën op intensieve en veelzijdige wijze in praktijk gebracht; ook in Nederland hebben zich in enkele plaatsen studie en werkgroepen gevormd.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardcover met stof omslag (zeer goede staat met bescherming) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISBN:\u003cspan\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e9789062716128\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConditie: Goed - hier en daar \u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eAANTEKENINGEN\u003c\/span\u003e met blauwe pen (zie foto's), stof omslag beschermt met plastic. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublisher:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eServire\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eDen Haag, 1965, Eerste Nederlandse vertaling\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Eureka Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54014366286172,"sku":"","price":45.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/6333\/3724\/files\/5CF3073C-050A-44B6-9D7A-3D618DA9ED5E.jpg?v=1783170384"},{"product_id":"boyhood-with-gurdjieff-fritz-peters","title":"Boyhood with Gurdjieff, Fritz Peters","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBoyhood with Gurdjieff, Fritz Peters\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e'Only 11 years old when his aunt, Margaret Anderson, brought him to the \u003cstrong\u003ePrieuré\u003c\/strong\u003e in June 1924, he immediately became devoted to \u003cstrong\u003eGurdjieff\u003c\/strong\u003e.

Great changes have taken place in the quarter-century since \u003cstrong\u003eGurdjieff's\u003c\/strong\u003e death, yet much of the mystery that surrounded him in his lifetime remains. His epic work, \u003cstrong\u003eBeelzebub's Tales to His Grandson\u003c\/strong\u003e, written in the period after 1924, when \u003cstrong\u003eGurdjieff\u003c\/strong\u003e lived in France, and intended to express his teaching \"in a form accessible to all,\" has increased the demand to hear, so to speak, his actual voice and direct instructions - that is, for some account of the conversations that took place between him and his pupils, wherever it was, whether during the tense and difficult times of their escape from revolutionary Russia, or at \u003cstrong\u003ethe Institute for the Harmonious Development of Man\u003c\/strong\u003e near Paris, or during visits to American pupils in New York and elsewhere. That any record of these lectures exists at all is due to a few pupils who - with astonishing powers of memory and in most cases entirely without \u003cstrong\u003eGurdjieff's\u003c\/strong\u003e knowledge - managed to write down what they had heard afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are the talks presented in this book. Incomplete as they are, they are an authentic rendering of \u003cstrong\u003eGurdjieff's\u003c\/strong\u003e approach to work on oneself and to a progressive understanding of the inner conditions indispensable to self-development. In fact, even in these notes from memory, it is striking that there is always the same human tone of voice, the same man evoking a secret response in each of his listeners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo lectures of the years 1917-1933 has been added the account of a conversation with \u003cstrong\u003eGurdjieff\u003c\/strong\u003e known as \"Glimpses of Truth,\" written by a Moscow pupil in 1914 and tantalizingly mentioned by \u003cstrong\u003eP.D.
