The Enneagram in the Writings of Gurdjieff
Used Book in Good Condition
G. I. Gurdjieff was a spiritual teacher in the first half of the twentieth century who offered an unusually penetrating analysis of the human condition together with practical methods for the development of being and consciousness. The Enneagram in the Writings of Gurdjieff presents a unified solution to a number of mysteries connected with his writings and with the emblem of his teaching, a geometric figure known as the enneagram. This book shows that Gurdjieff transmitted through his writings an understanding of the enneagram that he chose not to divulge in his talks. It also shows that the emblem of his teaching can be seen in the large-scale structure of his writings if one knows how to look below the surface.
It should be noted that this book is not about personality types, but about the enneagram as a symbol of the Gurdjieffian octave.
