music id ?
Gurdjieff Music: played by Alain Kremski, can be found on the Internet Archive.
What is the name of the music at the beginning <3 ?
Return from a Journey. Gurdjieff composition played by Alain Kremski
Hello Robin-some of the most interesting aspects here were the last bit on thought, feeling, higher functions, conscious shock. So much...I would have to be sitting with you to really understand, and even then..... thank you for this understanding you have created for yourself and the offering to us all... I hope the weather there is, well it is what it is. The tulmultuous emotional waters of the Earth seem to be reflected in the unconscious doings of people these days...ah yes, as above so below....
Hello, how to test/ apply some of these ?
Be specific and I'll try to help.
@@robinjpbloor It is usable only by mens n°7-9 ? Can mens says n°1-4, use this if they want to have better dream memories ?
@@robinjpbloor Hi Robin, do you think there's a way to apply the Enneagram to physical exercise? As in, can it be used to help develop an optimal exercise routine by adding in shocks at certain phases, etc?
@@danjonesdj Try it and see. For any activity there is an octave.
@@robinjpbloor Can you give me an example of how this could work? For example with lifting dumbbells.
dººb! Aware.
1:40 where did you get the Gurdjieff quote, "To know all, it is necessary to know very little; but to know that very little, one must first know pretty Damn much." ?
Found it in a list of Gurdjieff quotes. Probably came from CS Nott, but I'm not certain.
@@robinjpbloor ok , sounds a little gobbledygook to be Gurdjieffian ..
@robinjpbloo didnt find anything in CS Nott books or any of his drect students who also wrote books. Maybe am missing a book or two in my collection.Do you have link to that book of Gurdjieff Quotes ?
@@anind3r It's not a book, it's a collection of Gurdjieff quotes I stored in onenote a while ago. It doesn't specify a source. I always presumed it was about the enneagram.
You'll find this in Bennett's Enneagram Studies at the beginning of chapter two: To know all it is necessary to know very little, but to know that very little, one must first know pretty much." My note may be a slight misquote.
I may have understood the Hydrogens and assimilated the food diagram for the first time Thank you. My brain hurts, now that has to be an improvement.
Great Interview
Great Interview
Sacred is not what it is, but what you do with it.
I started questioning my existence at the age of 7, and as a child of a Muslim family at a young age, my first stop was the Quran. Then this wasn't enough for me. At the age of 13, I decided that this was not enough and continued to search in bitter anguish. I met Osho when I was 16, and at 18 I experienced kundalini in nature for the first time. I had an extraordinary experience that I didn't believe it, things were getting deeper and I was starting to get scared but I only felt good emotions and Love, my mind was still scared, then I needed someone like me or a servant, The only thing I was passionate about in life was my desire to search, there is no one like me around me, I wish there was one in the world. It is good to know that there are people like me, we will not turn back from our path. Now I am 19 years old and sometimes I progress and sometimes I take a break. I could not focus on university because of reading spiritual books. Now I decided not to study at university. I will work and gain financial freedom with savings at an early age and continue reading the books of masters about my only passion, the search.
Keep searching from within
<3
Thank you for your beautiful work. It is lovely to see the teaching come to life in your videos. How do you achieve this quality of presentation? Are there tools you can recommend?
I use Keynote on the Mac to create presentations. It has the ability to export as video and it has many visual effects that can be used. Aside from that I use the Affinity graphic tools rather than Adobe as I find them more intuitive and more productive.
Maybe Gurdjieff should have consulted a vedic scholar about the meaning of kundalini since the vedas are where that term originated. He seems to be off point in his understanding of kundalini. Sankhya yoga philosophy delineates terms like Pakruti and Parusha, ie. Nature and the All Knowing Self. Parusha can be trapped in nature(Pakruti) when immersed in perceptive faculties, five senses etc. The purpose of yoga is to unravel ourselves from the grip of our perceptions (past) to have an objective view (be here now) and harness our sexual energy (kundalini) for authentic purpose aligned with Source consciousness. This is a flow state, of ease and of grace. Its much deeper than I've explained. I suggest consulting with a vedic scholar to understand these deep concepts.
Robin, thank you as always for your elegant and break-through work.. at 3:19 slide, the left column.. I think you meant to show the variations of the 6 possible combinations, as in the diagram on the right, but on the left they read all the same : Higher, Middle, Lower...
Thanks for your input.
None of the links in the description are working
Checked, they're not working for me either.
Thanks for pointing that out. I've now fixed it.
Thansk for telling me. I've now fixed it.
Splendid work, thank you so much 🙏🏻
dººb! Nice
Thank you.
I have been in Gurdjieff Work for many decades and with a different teacher, Wm. Nyland. However, I completely agree with the comment below and with the Gurdjieffian tendency to speak in abstractions that are formulatory word salads that create a lot of unnecessary mental baggage. For a good explanation of self remembering that is clear, direct and accessible to one as a direct experience see Rupert Spira: th-cam.com/video/ByFvAKdKeRA/w-d-xo.html.
He was quite the influence to Robert Fripp.
❤Gracias
Thank you, Robin, I have your book, ‘Gurdjieff’s Hydrogens’, with me at a park as I view this video.
God bless Mr Bennett. ❤🎉🏴🥰
My father was a pupil of Mr J Bennett in the late 60s They don't make people of this calibre anymore, it seems to me. ❤🏴
Plus the screen evaporates too soon
Pause.
I’m considering buying his book on Amazon about hydrogens so I checked out his TH-cam page so I could get an idea of how he presents information because I can’t find a single review in all the internet on his hydrogens book. These are good videos - but if his book is like this - I’m not ready for this yet. It might take me 100 years to get through it
Amazing. Such a treasure to stumble across, seemingly by chance. Seeing the videos of areas that G. lived in at different times makes the sense of his presence on the planet years ago so much stronger, at least for me. Thank you for the time you must have put in, to produce this gem...
Thank You ……….🌞
the music is him playing his harmonium.
Thank you for posting
TY
Any thoughts on Elon Musk's recent comments on electricity?
You mean his comments about the supply shortage that is emerging? Mankind's abuse of electricity continues apace. It will probably not lead to anything good. Gurdjieff warned that the more mankind used electricity, the worse the outcome would be.
@@robinjpbloor Exactly. “You see, my boy, what coincidences occur in our Great Universe..." I had just read about Elon's concerns when my associations brought me back to the Tales and Orage's commentary on electricity. "...there is not an infinite amount of electricity available. During an Electric age neurosis, will-less-ness and inability to engage in impartial intellection will increase. " "When my teaching understood, there will be no more electric light."
L’interprétation au piano est « fortissima » ! Cette musique de Gurfjieff et Hartmann est sublime ! 💜💜💜
Hi there could you tell the music that is playing in the beginning of this video?
First piece: Andantino for piano (Alain Kremski), Second: 12 Musique Pour Les Mouvements - No 18 Des _39_ (Alain Kremski), Third: Alleluia (Alain Kremski)
Thankyou@@robinjpbloor
Thank you, that's a lot of work. Much appreciated for further study.
I have followed Gurdjieff's work for a long time, re-reading/listening to his books and music, which I never seem to get tired of, how I am glad to have found this...I need must be, determined in learning this. Great source for inspiration and my further development. Huge thanks from my entire being, bless your soul Robin Bloor!
Hervorragend 1:35
Thank you.Wonderful. The placement of 2-3-1 Invention on MI is wonderful, as therefore is the rest. The copying, growing force at SO for instance. The Essence types and their placements look weird to me.
Brilliant explanation. It's the first time I understood some of this Gurdjieff "stuff".
The quote from Gurdjieff about the two men reminds me of a quote by Eliphas Levi about the Tarot.
More than fine. Thanks for making this very complete “record” for us. I wish all the viewers here could have heard your accompanying comments
He spent the entire time describing the parameters, the context, the reason for it but he still hasn't described what IS self remembering and how do you do it. The usual obfuscation of Gurdjieffian teachers. I have to assume he does not know.
to be conscious thats it
It's essentially a different linguistic interpretation of what we typically call mindfulness. Being engaged in the current moment and making yourself aware of your presence and your place within the external world.
This is a beautiful greeting. Thank you so much Robin Bloor!
Hello Mark. Im in oregon also. I found this inspiring and emotional. I don't know much about music but this sings to my soul, crushes my body, and vibrates my will all in my hearts desire. I love this😊
I can send you recordings of the music if you want. Contact me at tofathomthegist.com/contact-us/ and request.
@@robinjpbloor Thank you ❤️
Hello Robin-thank you for your work here.....when I look at the enneagram (among other things) I Draw an imaginary line downwards bisecting the enneagram into left brain hemisphere and right.....each side, emotional and intellectual, when conscious, contain three points of perception in regards to any experience, either 1-4-2 or 8-5-7, in which a perspective for that hemisphere or center, is had....it may be a feeling first or a cognitive perception first.....the deeper and fuller experience is had when the #2 point crosses over to the cognitive #8 point (or vice versa) and the opposite hemisphere contributes its unique perspective. In this regard the cross over lines of force are particularly important and concomitantly difficult for the striving individual as each center naturally wants to be the dominant. The cross over balances. I would have to speculate that with this idea, the circle representing all and nothing, is a representation of the body center and sensation without which there can be no conscious feeling or thinking. My life here in Oregon is very fluid now and I am set to go to Europe at the end of February. When I come back (?) I would like to come to Auston to visit you and your group. I feel Gurdjieff gaze if it rested upon you, would be a very benevolent one in regards to your furtherance of His work. God bless you....
Interesting. I understood restorials and stopinders to be the same thing, namely the actual notes of the octave, the places of rest but also the points of maximal blending. Also, to return the ocatave back to the start, the kitchen must be returned to the original state, i.e. cleaning and tidying up. This last stage is what we mostly miss in life. Ahh, you mention this...
