Mr. Gurdjieff: Doing

In order to do it is necessary to be.

Editor's comment:

Patience with oneself, acceptance,
look for chinks of light, where you realize you
can make an effort.

Sometimes the effort to finding the light is
harder than making the actual effort itself.

Many Fairy Tales, are not just for Children, they
are Esoteric Teaching.

Their beautiful simplicity is why they have
survived, and do they not contain a powerful message?
The truth is actually very simple.

The dwarfs in Snow White, go to mine every day,
find diamonds.

One way to look at this could be,
and note: could be, the dwarfs are finding
the opportunities to make efforts, to go against
themselves or wake up for a moment.

Mr. Gurdjieff gave his students the exercise to
say "I am" every hour on the hour.

Not so easy.
