Gurdjieff, Georges Ivanovitch, 1872-19492021
Books
Are we able to say that life is governed by a group of conscious people? In fact, we see exactly the opposite: that life is governed by those who are the least conscious, by those who are most asleep. G.I. Gurdjieff believed that 200 conscious people could change the whole of life on the earth. Yet, according to Gurdjieff, the wars raging at this very moment are nothing more than millions of sleeping people trying to annihilate millions of other sleeping people. With the help of self-knowledge and an understanding of our relation to the universe, we can become conscious and awaken to a higher level of being. All of Gurdjieff's fundamental principles and methods of transforming the intellect, emotions, and body, in the system known as the Fourth Way, are presented in this book.
