Dinner and drinks...

At dinner, Mr. Gurdjieff would enjoy
Amagnac. A high quality brandy.
He would have rounds of toasts with
vodka, Armagnac to get his students
to the point where they would start to
drop their normal social personalities.
And the truth, who they were, could
start to emerge.
He could then work on them.

You need.....

You need friends.They are your mirror.

Your day...

Your day is your mirror.

Travelling together...

Mr. Gurdjieff described the friends who

travelled with him on his great quest for 

objective knowledge as 

The "Seekers of Truth".

It may be that what he meant by this,

is that your friends, those with whom you

have enough trust to reveal yourself, your

weaknesses, your old self, are  your own

"Seekers of Truth".

The greatest thing...

Being where you are is the
greatest accomplishment on earth.
Being present to your life.

Views....Book

Here is another book,
"Views of the real world",
The early talks of Gurdjieff.
It was a great breakthrough
to finally find this book after
years of disappointment and
searching.

In Search of patience...

Throughout Mr. Ouspenky's book
"In Search of the Miraculous",
Mr. Gurdjieff emphasizes that need
for patience, and long and prolonged efforts.
