Book Description
"In my experience, emotions are completely misunderstood nowadays. It seems like people just don't know what they are anymore, let alone how and why they work. Unfortunately, I have also found this state of things among a great deal of those studying Gurdjieff's teaching, who even if are maybe the only ones left having an accurate knowledge about consciousness and how to achieve it, seem to have lost the path to conscience along the way."

"In the year 1924, M. Georges Gurdjieff came to New York City. He was then the founder and head of The Institute for the Harmonious Development of Man, at Fontainebleau, France and he brought with him a considerable number of his instructors and pupils. M. A.R. Orage had remained in New York City as the representative of M. Gurdjieff to hold a series of informal groups for those interested, in order to explain the nature of the Institute and its work. I was then twenty-nine years of age.The field of these formulations is that of objective truth, both personal and non-personal.And so, I wish you good hunting."C. Daly King

Book Description
The most complete, comprehensive account of the life and work of George Ivanovich Gurdjieff, one of the greatest men of the 20th century, and the only one which attempts to describe his mission. Since Gurdjieff's death in 1949, countless books have been written describing an author's experience with him, in more or less personal detail. This is the first and only book written by an associate of Gurdjieff, presenting an overview of Gurdjieff's life, cultural background, studies, teachings, practices, cosmology, psychology and goals. The author encountered Gurdjieff first in Istanbul in 1920, saw him again in London and the Prieure, Fontainebleau, lost touch with him for 25 years and saw him again in Paris and New York in the last two years of his life. He devoted the last 25 years of his own life to researching and transmitting Gurdjieff's teachings. As the title suggests, the author identifies Gurdjieff's work as nothing less than the inauguration of a new epoch of human evolution, based upon a new understanding of the meaning of "Conscience"; a model based not upon the supremacy of the individual and humanity as a whole, but upon cooperation with both higher and lower powers. The twelve chapters and two appendices are written as a series of essays, which can be read either sequentially or separately. The second appendix gives an account of a cosmological system that is parallel to but entirely separate from the Ray of Creation described in detail in Ouspensky's "In Search of the Miraculous.""

While being the only disciple acknowledged by Gurdjieff in his own writings, referring to him as "my inner world essence friend," Orage, besides having an important contribution to Gurdjieff's teaching through his help with the first translation of Gurdjieff's books in English language and through his own writings and lectures, was a crucial self standing spiritual figure through his own work and ideas.

Book Description
A masterpiece of insight into the world of man and the universe, this is Magisteria's reply to Gurdjieff's "All and Everything": clearly explaining all things about human evolution, the soul, enneagram, death, sex, the devil, presence, the social level, Gurdjieff work, meditation, ego, etc. The ideal book to have on your coffee table and read a daily illumination from time to time! "Pondering is answering questions from essence and answering them practically. One-half the energy of a human being must be spent internally pondering. One-third of one's time should be spent in pondering. Pondering is a self-interrogation which consists in stripping off all the answers of association until you finally come to your own essential answer." Orage

Book Description
Gurdjieff has used more than one system of human typology and in this book we will try to study the main ones in order to better understand ourselves and the world in which we live in. This book explains, for the first time ever, the 28 human types mentioned by Gurdjieff in his books, The Herald of Coming Good and Beelzebub's Tales.After more twenty years of searching through different ways and types of exercises and more than ten years in one of the groups from the Gurdjieff Institute, I am now feeling the need to offer back to the world a little part of the knowledge that helped me to be a better human being today. While this book does not contain all the information that Gurdjieff brought, it gives a fair point of departure in an adventure that will bring more being in your life. The reader should have a basic knowledge of Gurdjieffian psychological and cosmological aspects, as the information presented here is pour les connoisseurs.
