G.I.Gurdjieff: A Life
No Customer Reviews
This book is a revised and corrected addendum to the biography G. I. Gurdjieff, A New Life, which was published in 2008It is appropriate to justify presenting another book to the corpus of works about him, and to wonder whether there are enough interested readers to warrant its publication. The response is an emphatic "yes," for the ideas of Gurdjieff and their sources are not passing mid nineteenth century fads or fancies. Not only was he recognized during his lifetime as an important messenger of vital ideas (Taylor, Gurdjieff in the Public Eye), but since his death his ideas have moved in ever widening cultural circles everywhere. There are over fifty Gurdjieff groups in the Western world alone, and groups in Africa, South America and Australia. I estimate there are over forty thousand active followers of Gurdjieff's ideas, as well as countless others who are exposed to his fourth way concepts and designs such as his enneagram. Interest in Gurdjieff and studies of him are bound to continue expanding.
