Mr. Gurdjieff and Mr. Teilhard in Conversation: Part II

This recording is part of a two-year Wisdom School series entitled “Mr. Gurdjieff Meet Mr. Teilhard.” The first year focused on the congruence between the two great teachers. The audio below is from the second Wisdom School, Part II, which focused on their differences looking at consciousness, conscience, and the human condition.

These unpolished, unedited recordings are available to the Wisdom community for free. Our thank you to Bob Sabath for recording these sessions held at the Claymont Retreat Center. A donation for use of the resource is always appreciated.

  • Stand Still in that which is Pure by Paulette Meier https://youtu.be/fR0oG2kAVWAStand still in that which is pure After ye see yourselves And then mercy comes in After thou seest thy thoughts and temptations. Do not think but submit And then power comes in. Stand still In that which shows and discovers And there doth strength immediately come. And stand still in the light And submit to it And the other will be hushed and gone And then contentment comes.
