John G.Bennett - Rizik i sloboda

Svaki trenutak je jedno raskršće. Svaki čovek je raskršće, i svaka misao i delo je raskršće. Ali šta je pravi put i kuda uopšte vodi neki put da bi se mogao nazvati pravim - to nam nije dato da znamo. I zato svaki izbor uvek nosi u sebi seme rizika i seme slobode. U skladu sa putem kojim smo izabrali...

Dr Maurice Nicoll - The Mark

A man touches the Earth with his physical feet, but he touches life with his psychological feet.His most external psychological level is sensual, a matter of sensation,a matter of the sensation. That is, his most external thinking and feeling arise from what he perceives from sense. This level represents the feet of his psychological being as distinct from the feet of his physical being, and the kind of shoes which cover his feet represent his particular views, opinions, and attitudes that he wears or uses in his approach to sense-given life. Without your five senses, external life would not exist for you. How does a man walk the Earth? We speak here psychologically. How does his outermost psychology relate itself to external life?

Rodney Collin - Teorija o večnom životu

Rodni Kolin, učenik P. D. Uspenskog, razotkriva ljudsku stvarnost, život i smrt, toliko jasno i precizno da čak ni skeptičan intelekt modernog čoveka ne može da ostane nedodirnut. Koristeći analogije pred čijom očiglednošću možemo samo da zanemimo, potkrepljene i potvrđene drevnim tekstovima, i sve povezano i izrečeno naučnim jezikom dovoljno razumljivim za svakoga, proizvodi “šok” dovoljno snažan da probudi i “najuspavanije”

Rebecca Nothingam - Četvrti put i ezoterijsko kršćanstvo

Početkom dvadesetog stoljeća jedan je grčko-armenski ezoterijski učitelj s malom grupom učenika napustio Rusiju i revoluciju. Njegovo ime bilo je Georgij Ivanovič Gurđijev. Naposljetku je stigao u Francusku i osnovao centar za poduku kojega je nazvao Institut za harmonični razvoj čovjeka. Tu je Gurđijev podučavao razvojni sustav osobne transformacije kojemu je dao ime Četvrti Put.Kroz njega je metafizičke, duhovne instrukcije uspio učiniti dostupnima racionalnome znanstvenom umu, objedinjujudi duhovni nauk Istoka sa znanošdu Zapada. Vrijednost ovog jedinstvenog postignuda je neizmjerna. Bez Gurđijeva, praktični put prosvjetljenja, nazvan "Rad", nikada ne bi dosegnuo zapadni svijet dvadesetoga stoljeda. Njegova formulacija ovog ezoterijskog učenja učinila ga je dostupnim opdoj populaciji, dok je ranije bio poznat u malim, ekskluzivnim grupama za koje je malo tko ikada čuo.

John G.Bennett - Seksualnost i duhovni razvoj

Benet i supruga

Seksualnost je vrlo komplikovana tema koja i u svakodnevnoj životu i ramišljanju, a i dublje, suštinski pogađa čoveka ili, kako bi Džon Benet rekao, ona već pripada njegovoj suštini. Kada se još pokuša sagledavanje uloge sekusalnosti u okviru duhovnog razvoja, nailazimo na veliki broj ideja, objašnjanja i saveta, ponekad toliko međusobno protivrečnim da je teško snaći se i izaći iz tog lavirinta. Benetov prikaz te teme, na stranicama koje slede, razlikuje se od većine poznatih i očekivanih shvatanja. Neke od tih ideja će mnogima verovatno delovati krajnje čudno, vrlo teško razumljivo i gotovo neprihvatljivo. Ipak, u pozadini svega što je tu izneseno, nalazi se Gurđijeljev sistem, u čijem kontekstu sve to dobija pravo značenje i smisao.

Boris Mouravieff - Gnosis / Book II

Boris Mouravieff

The first volume of Gaosis is dedicated to the exoteric cycle of the traditional teaching. The present volume deals with the mesoteric qrcle. The third will consider the esoteric cycle in the full sense of this term. In systematic teaching of the tradition, each of these cycles has a task analogous to that of one of the three main stages of public education. Thus: 1. The exoteric cycle corresponds to the elementay esoteric teaching. As such, it seeks to provide the student with basic informmation he needs for his work. It is in a sense the ABC of the Doctrine; 2. The mesoteric cycle, like secondary education, seeks to communicate the elements of a general culture to the student, and to teach him a method; 3. The esoteric cycle corresponds to higher or university education.

Boris Mouravieff - Gnosis / Book I

Boris Mouravieff

Though never taken seriously during his lifetime, and rarely mentioned in Gurdjieffian literature, the name Boris Mouravieff has in recent years become more than a footnote, thanks to a diligent campaign by his latter-day followers. Though he never joined the Work, forever remaining on its periphery, gleaning here and there what information he could, criticizing and casting doubt, Mouravieff was never quite able to get Gurdjieff and the teaching out of his system. Then in 1961, 12 years after Gurdjieff's death, Mouravieff came forward with a three-volume work, Gnosis, which purported to give what he called "the complete" exposition of the exoteric, mesoteric, and esoteric tradition of Eastern orthodoxy.
