Books Descriptions
'You must learn not what people round you consider good or bad, but to act in
life as your conscience bids you' For twenty years, the spiritual teacher Gurdjieff
journeyed through Central Asia and the Middle East. Part travelogue, part
adventure, part spiritual guide, Meetings with Remarkable Men vividly describes
his encounters with the people who aided his search for knowledge: his father, a
bard, who handed down to him tales of wonder and magic; a Russian prince
dedicated to the truth; a Persian dervish who taught him a new way of living; a
woman who escaped slavery to become a trusted fellow seeker. Through them,
we see a young man discovering the answers to who we are and what it means
to live fully.With a new Introduction by Gary Lachman
