Publisher Description

Quotations from the Gurdjieff Work is a thought-provoking collection of over 1200 unique quotations that offer deep insights into the teachings and philosophy commonly known as The Gurdjieff Work. Gurdjieff was a spiritual teacher who developed a complex system of ideas and practices aimed at helping individuals attain a greater level of self-awareness and a deeper understanding of the nature of existence.In this book, you'll find a wide range of quotations that cover a variety of topics, including self-knowledge, consciousness, how to approach The Work, aspects of Gurdjieff's objective science, and the meaning of man's existence. Each quotation has been carefully selected for its clarity, depth, and ability to inspire readers to reflect on their own lives and their personal work. Aside from Gurdjieff, there are chapters of aphorisms, sayings and epigrams from A. R. Orage, C. S. Nott, P.D. Ouspensky, Jeanne de Salzmann, Maurice Nicoll, Jane Heap and Rodney Collin, sourced either from their writings or from accounts of people who knew them. It also includes quotations (usually of Gurdjieff himself) from the writings of A. L. Staveley, Rina Hands, Katheryn Hulme, Alejandro Jodorowsky, Bernard Metz, Fritz Peters, Loise March, Henri Tracol, Henriette Lannes, J G Bennet and Michel Conge. It devotes a whole chapter that provides all the quotations from Mullah Nassr Eddin - not just those that are to be found in Beelzebub's Tales to His Grandson, but also those from The 1931 Manuscript and Meetings With Remarkable Men.Whether you're a longtime student of the Gurdjieff Work or simply interested in exploring new ideas and perspectives, this book is sure to stimulate your mind and encourage you to dive deeper into the mysteries of human consciousness and existence. It is destined to become a natural part of any spiritual library or collection.
