A brief exploration of the meaning of the inner sensation of Being, based on Gurdjieff’s teachings and other sources.
This series of essays lays out a new pathway for understanding the nature of inner spiritual energy and its role in the sensation of self in both planetary and cosmological contexts. A discussion of inner harmonic vibrations and their relationships ensues, along with some observations on their relationship to yogic practice.The essays propose an approach to the mind-body connection initiated through the body, not the mind, which is centered around an organic sensation. In addition, they explore the role of planetary and solar emanations in the development of Being in humanity, with an explanation of how magnetism and gravity function not just as physical, but also spiritual forces. A new impression of the spiritual dimension of what are otherwise considered merely physical forces emerges from this discussion.
An in-depth examination of one of the most unique and unusual initiatory religious spaces in Northern Europe. Dating from somewhere around 1150 A.D., Serrabonna (Serrabone, to English speakers) houses some of the most extraordinary and unusual Romanesque capitals anywhere. Featuring a baffling bestiary and enigmatic characters, the space has defied modern attempts at interpretation. Yet its spiritual power remains intact nearly a thousand years after its construction; its remote location and the undeniable beauty of its masterpieces still speak to us.
This groundbreaking monograph proposes a comprehensive, unifying esoteric meaning to the space, along with the manner in which initiates conducted processionals through it. It binds together classical understandings with traditional Christianity and undertones of Jungian psychology, and will be of great interest to any student of medieval religious symbolism, early Christian mysticism, and the works of G. I. Gurdjieff.
