    So, does any magic actually *work* in the sense of having effects in the outside world, or only have effects on the minds of the practitioners? Has anyone seriously looked at that?

    Why do you feel that you have to give a disclaimer for Evola when you don’t do it for leftists. If you to do a program on the Satanic Temple you wouldn’t denounce their Communism. I find that hypocritical and cowardly.

    Great video! Speaking of Gurdjieff and music, you may want to look into Robert Fripp and his Guitar Craft. He was a big fan of Gurdjieff and Ouspensky in the 70s, and started his own sort of off-school that combines music, movement (see the League Of Crafty Guitarists), group work and personal development. It’s also strangely Pythagorean, imho.

    I highly recommend the study of Gurjieff’s practical techniques for capture of the ego and identification of automatism that plagues humanity. Best starting point is “In Search of the Miraculous” by Ouspensky, who details meetings with G. And group work. A riveting story to boot!

  • @frankjimenez4601

    Some of Gurdjieff's practices weren't intended to be passed on, like the dance and "Simon says" methods. Not all "machine" types do the same practices. Also, his teachings isn't to focus on the thoughts, feelings, instincts, and physical movements. It's to be aware of yourself in every moment including your environment at once. In being aware of one's self one will notice the habits and activities of the thoughts/emotions/instincts/bodily movements.

    I used to be a member of one of his Fourth Way schools in Manhattan, The Fellowship of Friends. Gurdjieff didn't derive his system from Sufism as some postulate. He traveled around the global collecting teachings. At his death bed, he told Ouspensky he made it all up.

    This man has always been a big question mark to me, and I'm sure both Ouspensky and Crowley would agree. Anyway, any further presentation about his work, especially his enneagram, would be greatly appreciated.

    • @frankjimenez4601
      @frankjimenez4601 6 годин тому

      Gurdjieff and Crowley actually met. Crowley visited Gurdjieff, who upon seeing Crowley separated from his group and approached Crowley alone. Gurdjieff's members saw them talking but couldn't make out what they were saying. Then, his members heard Gurdjieff's voice raise loud, then Crowley left. I don't remember the source.

    • @nickgangadis8679
      @nickgangadis8679 2 години тому

      ⁠@@frankjimenez4601Yeah, I know that after a quick encounter Gurdjieff expelled Crowley from the Prieuré, where his school was established. It is said that he was the only person that Gurdjieff ever expelled (that’s Crowley for you, LOL), but I don’t know what it was said during that meeting. Meeting with ’remarkable’ men for sure. 😂

    One documentary I've watched contended that Gurdjieff was in contact with both Hitler and Stalin, and that he was one of the only men Stalin feared. It also said that Gurdjieff knew Hitler would fail because he reversed the direction of the swastika on the German banners. With it being a symbol of the sun and therefore victory, Hitler doomed himself to defeat. I have heard Alan Watts describes Gurdjieff's followers in such a way that he claims the only ones who really understood him gave up his esoteric practices and moved on. The most fascinating thing for me was that he thought our souls were food for the Moon in some way. Did he have esoteric knowledge of a dark spiritual power, or was he just aware of the alien moon nazi soul traps littered throughout the solar system?

    • @frankjimenez4601
      @frankjimenez4601 6 годин тому

      Gurdjieff was talking about evolution in regards to the planets. The moon was trying to become like the earth so it's taking from the earth. The earth is trying to evolve like the sun so it's taking from the sun to evolve. Everything and being in the boundless universe is evolving back to to its original state from which it came.
