The master's test

When people write about awakened men,
what they often describe without saying it,
is that these individuals have mastered themselves.

Sometimes these men walk a knife edge
when they have starry eyed followers willing
to pay and serve, it can be overwhelming to be
worshipped however developed they might be.
Some students of Gurdjieff felt he sometimes lost his way.
He had to work hard to keep his pupils on their toes.
This is also part of their test.
