Paperback. Zustand: Good. "I am only a bridge; when you have got over the stream you can kick me away." -Gurdjieff to John G. Bennett This work advances a thesis about Gurdjieff's mysticism and shows how one of Gurdjieff's most eminent pupils developed the heritage. It also compares John G. Bennett-for whom this is the first biographical study-with other Gurdjieff pupils, notably Ouspensky and Jeanne de Salzmann. Bennett has been a controversial figure in the Gurdjieff lineage, rising to prominence, as he did, in the generation after Gurdjieff's death. Scholar Joseph Azize scrutinizes Bennett's visions (near-death, out-of-body, and mystical experiences), showing the original ways he witnessed life, death, and resurrection. Azize also reveals how Bennett was taken advantage of by Idries Shah, and why there's a widespread view among students of Gurdjieff that Idries Shah was a poseur, a pretender to esoteric knowledge, prepared to deceive others when it was to his advantage. Bennett's later connections with Shivapuri Baba, and his correspondence with David Bohm, are also sure to stimulate more explorations of Gurdjieff-related matters. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Helen Adie was a teacher of Gurdjieff's Fourth Way, and one of its premier musicians and composers until her death in 1996. Together with her husband George Adie, she co-founded the Gurdjieff Society of Newport, which continues to this day. The heart of this book are her responses to questions by their pupils about the practical work. In addition, we include photographs, and some recordings of her playing the Gurdjieff/de Hartmann music and her own compositions for Movements. The questions and answers cover diverse topics, arranged thematically with an index for convenience, including these areas: aim, the purpose and value of the morning preparation, relaxing, collecting attention, self-remembering, moving, feeling, and the head, identification, considering, the work in daily life, in the family, in the workplace, negative emotion, dreaming, habits, exercises and tasks, making appointments, the Movements, energies (use and transformation), using the resistance, conscious labour and intentional suffering, and working during the recess, as well as special sections including answers by Mr Adie.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - What is the Maronite Catholic faith It is a Church which professes the same creed as the Universal Catholic Church. It is an expression of the revelation and sacramental dispensation of Our Lord Jesus Christ, addressed to a people who shared the Aramaic language and culture of the Semitic world into which He Himself was born. If we think of it as a tree, then its seed was planted by the teaching of Our Lord Jesus Christ, as passed on through His apostles. In the person of St Maroun of Syria, that seed put down roots. Then, through his disciples, who journeyed to Lebanon, a sapling shot up from the soil of Lebanon. Finally, a full-grown cedar appeared, tended by St Yuhanna Maroun (a monk from a Syrian monastery named after St Maroun), who was elected Patriarch of Antioch to preserve the Christian faith. -- From the Introduction.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Very scarce stapled booklet, internally very good but with a small scuff on the front cover and staples just beginning to show rust. Lawyer, priest and author Joseph Azize presents a concise manual of how to spot a fraud, both within our own selves and among our friends, family, and those with whom we may have business dealings. He discusses the many behavioral manifestations of various types of fraudsters and lays bare their methods and styles, their many modus operandi. In this title, the reader will find how talk and chatter are used to persuade, how cleverly diverting blame buys trust, how baseless cynicism and resentment fuel our own vulnerabilities to fall victim to fraud. Sometimes serious, sometimes witty, but always with deep insight, this book is an invaluable aid to both spotting fraudulent behavior in others, but perhaps more importantly, recognizing our inner propensities to fool ourselves.

dj. Later printing. Oxford Studies in Western Esotericism Series; [xvii] 326 pages. Writers have for the most part passed over in silence the contemplative exercises presented in Gurdjieff's writings. Although Gurdjieff had intended them to be confidential, some of the most important exercises were published posthumously in 1950 and in 1975. - Arguing that an understanding of these exercises is necessary to fully appreciate Gurdjieff's contribution to modern esotericism, Joseph Azize offers the first complete study of the exercises and their theoretical foundation. It shows the continuity in Gurdjieff's teaching, but also the development and change. His original contribution to Western Esotericism lay in his use of tasks, disciplines, and contemplation-like exercises to bring his pupils to a sense of their own presence which could to some extent be maintained in daily life in the social domain, and not only in the secluded conditions typical of meditation. Azize contends that Gurdjieff had initially intended not to use contemplation-like exercises, as he perceived dangers to be associated with these monastic methods, and the religious tradition to be in tension with the secular and supra-denominational guise in which he first couched his teaching. As Gurdjieff adapted the teaching he had found in Eastern monasteries to Western urban and post-religious culture, however, he found it necessary to introduce contemplation.
