Once at the Prieure, some of the students working were trying to split a large
rock that was blocking progress in a construction project. They struggle with
this problem for quite a while. Mr. Gurdjieff arrived straight from Paris, he took
his coat off, picked up the hammer and a rock chisel, inspected the rock and with
a few sharp blows split the rock into several pieces that could easily be removed.
He said: "You have to learn how to look". (Paraphrased).
