Based on notebooks kept by G.I. Gurdjieff's closest follower, this book offers new insight on his spiritual teachings - a way of "gnosis "or "knowledge of being" passed on from remote antiquity.
Viewed as the wheel of life and the key
to self-knowledge in ancient traditions,
a mandala is a symbolic spiritual image
which, when meditated on, can bring about
profound inner transformation.
"No one has done better in conveying Lao Tsu's simple and laconic style of writing, so as to produce an English version almost as suggestive of the many meanings intended. This is a most useful, as well as beautiful, volume—and what it has to say is exactly what the world, in its present state, needs to hear." - Alan Watts
