    Potential Student’s:
    I hope that you will take advantage of this reading page list which help you follow Gurdjieff’s ideas that are in the book “In Search of the Miraculous” written by Ouspensky. I don’t follow all of Gurdjieff’s teaching but what I found, is truly amazing. The amazing parts works well with Spinoza’s philosophy that will helps us understand human nature, and more specifically our nature.

    IN SEARCH OF THE MIRACULOUS     (Preferred Reading Pages)

    The following pages are valuable, sometimes extremely valuable, helpful or at least not

    a hindrance to the work that we do.  All other material in the book is of no value,

    occasionally contrary or confusing. Read this latter material if you find it of interest,

    but bear in mind the above distinctions.
