In Search of the Miraculous: Fragments of an Unknown Teaching

According to Gurdjieff, the majority of people live their lives in a state of sleep, without any real awareness. In order to awaken consciousness, it is necessary to undergo a process of self-awareness and transformation. In this video, we will explore Gurdjieff’s teachings from In Search of the Miraculous: Fragments of an Unknown Teaching a 1949 book by Russian philosopher P. D. Ouspensky.

“Consciousness is a state in which a man knows all at once everything that he in general knows and in which he can see how little he does know and how many contradictions there are in what he knows.” – George Gurdjieff

The Fourth Way

George Gurdjieff was a Russian philosopher who developed a unique system of thought that he called the “Fourth Way.” Gurdjieff believed that the majority of people live their lives in a state of what he called “waking sleep.” This is a state in which we are not really aware of ourselves or our surroundings. We go through the motions of our lives without any real sense of purpose or direction.

In order to awaken consciousness, Gurdjieff believed that it was necessary to undergo a process of self-awareness and transformation. This process would allow us to see ourselves and our lives more clearly. It would also help us to find a deeper sense of purpose and meaning.

Gurdjieff’s teachings can be helpful for anyone who is seeking to find greater consciousness in their own life. By understanding Gurdjieff’s ideas, we can begin to see the world in a new light. We can also start to work on ourselves in order to awaken our own hidden potential.

Do you know the truth about lies?

Most people think that white lies are harmless, but they’re actually one of the biggest problems in the world, according to George Gurdjieff. Watch this video to learn more about the truth about lies and begin your journey toward truth if you dare.

“A man must first of all understand certain things. He has thousands of false ideas and false conceptions, chiefly about himself, and he must get rid of some of them before beginning to acquire anything new. Otherwise the new will be built on a wrong foundation and the result will be worse than before. To speak the truth is the most difficult thing in the world; one must study a great deal and for a long time in order to speak the truth. The wish alone is not enough. To speak the truth one must know what the truth is and what a lie is, and first of all in oneself. And this nobody wants to know.” – George Gurdjieff

Do you know the lies you believe as truths?

George Gurdjieff was a spiritual teacher who was known for his teachings about lies. He believed that there were three types of lies: white lies, black lies, and gray lies. White lies are harmless lies that we tell to make other people feel better. Black lies are harmful lies that we tell to hurt other people. Gray lies are somewhere in between – they’re not necessarily harmful, but they’re not helpful either.

Gurdjieff believed that white lies were the most dangerous type of lie because they create a false sense of security. We tell white lies to make ourselves feel better, but in reality, we’re just hiding our true feelings. Black lies are also harmful, but they’re less dangerous than white lies because they’re usually told with the intention of causing harm. Gray lies are the least harmful type of lie, but they’re still not helpful.
