Tasks

Mr. Gurdjieff said that a teacher teaches by putting
"barriers" in front of his students. These might be difficulties to surmount,
such as digging a ditch in a very short period of time to work on laziness,
giving up an important item, sacrificing an obsession, or a task given
to the student,
in the completion of the which, the pupil overcomes a weakness and
grows in being.
