Description

THE GREAT WORK


Notes on the
Work (incl. beyond
source notes).
Inner meanings
and connections
of the Work language.
The center-of-gravity
of the Work ideas,
practices and goals.
(In the Bookmarks
section - to the left -
there are links
to other notes...)

- c. t.

'My nature is subdued
To what it Works in, like the dyer's hand.'

-Shakespeare

On the name
'work_celestial'...
Though the Work is
practical - like the
word 'work' itself -
it is also very poetic
and mysterious,
not only in its ideas
and goals but in the art
of its practice as well.
There is also
something of the
celestial in it in
that there are higher
forces that take notice
of individual human beings
who are making real,
conscious efforts
to awaken...

Obviously, what
is written in the
work_celestial
posts can be aquired
from the main sources
(or, purest springs)
themselves (Ouspensky's
In Search of the
Miraculous,
the Fourth Way
and the Psychology
of Man's Possible
Evolution,
as-well-as Nicoll's
six-volume
Psychological
Commentaries on the
Teachings of Gurdjieff
and Ouspensky,
and also Mouravieff's
Gnosis), that is,
when you study the
language and begin
to make efforts, and
begin to see connections
and inner meanings
for yourself...

'Develop yourself
physically, creatively,
and intellectually.
Read great books.
Study the Work,
do the Work, and
you will find your way.'

And, with the Work,
action is true eloquence,
and, the Work
must be conquered..
