About this listen
Are you ready for self-transformation? Many spiritual teachers promise transformation, but Georges Ivanovitch Gurdjieff delivers.
Gurdjieff (1872-1949) was born in Alexandropol on the border of Russia and Turkey. Gurdjieff's teachings contain many concepts that, taken together, are referred to as the Work. The idea behind the Work is that our first birth is our physical body, which is all we need to get through life. But we are capable of developing into something higher; just as an acorn can stay an acorn and die or develop into an oak tree, we can develop into something higher. Gurdjieff offers a radically original vision of man and his potential for self-development.
Gurdjieff, A Beginner's Guide: How Changing the Way We React to Misplacing Our Keys Can Transform Our Lives is a beginning guide to the teachings of Gurdjieff. Practical and eminently easy to listen to, it leads the listener through some of the main concepts necessary for self-transformation.

enjoyable
Minor historical oversight: Gurdjieff was from a Pontic Greek father and an Armenian mother. He had nothing to di with the Georgians.

A succinct introduction to a great model
this book is a very accessible introduction to a very practical model for walking the tightrope dance between the desert of nihilism and the clutches of tyranny. neither of which are mentioned in "the work" but the pendulum of all thing oscillating from elation to despair and how to uncling from such rollercoasters is finely laid out.
