Exploring the Teachings of Gurdjieff: THE ORAL TRANSMISSION OF KNOWLEDGE

What is my understanding of knowledge – the information that floods our daily lives and the kind of knowledge that potentially might be received through oral transmission – true knowledge?   How can I discern what is true knowledge, and how can I create a place within to receive this knowledge?

“The conditions of life in which a man is placed at the beginning of his work, in which, so to speak, the work finds him, are the best possible for him, at any rate at the beginning of the work.  These conditions are natural for him.  These conditions are the man himself, because a man’s life and its conditions correspond to what he is. Any conditions different from those created by life would be artificial for a man and in such artificial conditions the work would not be able to touch every side of his being at once”  

In Search of the Miraculous, P. D. Ouspensky

"Knowledge is sacred.  It is sacred because it expresses the laws of Life.  Diagrams and symbols are the revelation of what is hidden and are understood only according to one’s level of being.  They require a new vision, a deeper and broader vision: the worlds are not separate but are contained one within another.  A higher world encompasses a lower world and acts upon it, influences it.  This helps us to understand that the material of all worlds is in man."

Inner Octaves, Michel Conge
