THERE DO EXIST ENQUIRING MINDS,

..... which long for the truth of the heart, seek it, strive to solve the problems set by life, try to penetrate to the essence of things and phenomena and to penetrate into themselves.

If a man reasons and thinks soundly, no matter which path he follows in solving these problems, he must inevitably arrive back at himself, and begin with the solution of the problem of what he is himself and what his place is in the world around him.

For without this knowledge, he will have no focal point in his search. Socrates’ words, “Know thyself” remain for all those who seek true knowledge and being.


Faith of consciousness is freedom



Faith of feeling is weakness


Faith of body is stupidity.


Love of consciousness evokes the same in response


Love of feeling evokes the opposite


Love of body depends only on type and polarity.


Hope of consciousness is strength


Hope of feelings is slavery


Hope of body is disease.

(G.I Gurdjieff)
