Gurdjieff Today (Transformation of Man series - No. 1)

Coombe Springs Press, Sherborne, Gloucestershire, 1974. First Edition. Paperback. Near Fine Condition/Good. The present Monograph is the first of a series of six - 'The Transformation of Man'. The text is based on a lecture given at Caxton Hall, London in December 1973. It is intended for those already acquainted with Gurdjieff's ideas or other Sufi teachings. The same will apply to later Monographs. When Gurdjieff first came to France bringing his system of psychological techniques, the significance of his ideas and methods were not widely acknowledged. Now, some fifty years later, as we find ourselves in an increasingly chaotic and expanding world, the relevance of his system is being seen by 'more and more people, who seek a. meaning for their existence. It is in this that Gurdjieff's system is distinctive for he emphasises that we have to "look differently at this world" and gives us the methods and techniques to do so.
