A Record of Meetings: A Record of Some of Meetings Held by P.D. Ouspensky between 1930 and 1947

Penguin Books/Arkana, Harmondsworth, Middlesex, 1992. Second Impression. Paperback. Near Fine Condition. Titles & contents list to front. Originally in print in an edition limited to only twenty copies, this important work of Ouspensky now becomes available for the first time to a wider audience. The combination of his own ideas - gained from study, extensive travel and experiential research - and the teachings of Gurdjieff led Ouspensky to formulate his unique system for the appreciation and development of consciousness. Throughout the 1930s and 1940s, he gave lectures and held meetings to discuss a vast range of subjects with his circle. Like The Fourth Way and A Further Record, this book contains transcripts of numerous meetings at which Ouspensky answered questions on a great many issues ranging from evolution, the will, the self and religion to culture, thought and intelligence. From the precision of his responses and the acuity of his answers Ouspensky emerges as one of the most profound and influential masters of the spoken as well as the written word. The texts give us a deeper understanding of concepts such as The Ray of Creation, the Fourth Way’s work on personal emotions, Self-Remembering, Mechanicalness and the Higher Centres.
