The Inner Journey: Views from the Gurdjieff Work with DVD (Parabola Anthology)

by Jacob Needleman

The Inner Journey: Views from the Gurdjieff Work with DVD (Parabola Anthology) Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Synopsis:

The Gurdjieff tradition, commonly referred to as "The Work,” describes peoples daily lives as completely mechanical, conducted asleep. Gurdjieff's intent, as with many sacred traditions, was literally to aid in one's awakening. The tools for doing this are many but integrated. The various methods of "The Work" are intended to specifically integrate a persons physical, emotional, and intellectual centers into a fourth way of consciousness. Like Zen, this tradition has been an oral one emphasizing the relationship of teacher to student. But there have also been extensive writings on this tradition, and The Inner Journey collects some of the best of these in the form of essays, interviews, and fables. To expand readers experience and understanding of both Gurdjieff's life and his teachings, the book is bundled with the feature film Meetings with Remarkable Men, Peter Brooks critically acclaimed adaptation of the early years of Gurdjieffs search for meaning.
