Gurdjieff was a spiritual teacher in the first half of the twentieth century who offered an unusually penetrating analysis of the human condition together with practical methods for The Enneagram in the Writings of Gurdjieff development of being and consciousness. The Enneagram in the Writings of Gurdjieff presents a unified solution to a number of mysteries connected with his writings and with the emblem G. The Enneagram in the Writings of Gurdjieff presents a unified solution to a number of mysteries connected with his writings The Enneagram in the Writings of Gurdjieff with the emblem of his teaching, a geometric figure known as the enneagram. Gurdjieff called the enneagram the philosopher's stone of the alchemists and a source of great power, yet he never explained it satisfactorily to his pupils. This book shows that Gurdjieff transmitted through his writings an understanding of the symbol that he chose not to divulge in his talks. It also shows that the emblem of his teaching can be seen in the large-scale structure of his writings if one knows how to look The Enneagram in the Writings of Gurdjieff the surface. Richard J. Defouw became fascinated with astronomy as a youngster and went on to earn degrees in this field at Harvard and Caltech. His main interest subsequently shifted to the ideas of Gurdjieff. For two years he participated in a study group associated with the Institute for Religious Development headed by W. Nyland, a direct student of Gurdjieff. Later he spent ten years as a pupil in the Gurdjieff Foundation of Colorado. Defouw presents The Enneagram in the Writings of Gurdjieff analysis of the literary world created by Gurdjieff that one might expect from someone whose first interest was the search for order in the natural world. The surprise is that such an analysis is possible. Get A Copy. Paperbackpages. More Details Friend Reviews.

It is not the place to begin with the study of Gurdjieff's ideas. It is for the time when you are ready to really attempt to understand the Enneagram. It is the kind of book where you have to be able to hold things in your mind, go back to earlier diagrams, and read all the footnotes in the back of the book as you go along. But it is really worth it. I think Defouw is really on to something here. After reading this, you will be prepared to go back to Gurdjieff's writings This is a difficult read. After reading this, you will be prepared to go back to Gurdjieff's writings and trace the Enneagram in it for yourself. The Enneagram in the Writings of Gurdjieff might help to understand a level of the books that is not immediately apparent. It will be a quest to understand the octave of man's possible evolution.

Just a moment while we sign you in to your Goodreads account. Gurdjieff and the Enneagram — Center for Action and Contemplation In previous posts I have mentioned the work of Christian Wertenbaker. It runs to pages plus a glossary and a list of references. The top of the triangle is point 9, and points 1, 2, 4, 5, 7 and 8 are marked by coloured lines. If you wish to know more about that, and were not taught it by a pupil of Gurdjieff, it is in my forthcoming book Gurdjieff: Mysticism, Contemplation, and ExercisesNovemberOxford The Enneagram in the Writings of Gurdjieff Press. The outer circle is omitted from the cover illustration, but as said, the point ten is in the middle: two intriguing touches. The book is The Enneagram in the Writings of Gurdjieff in twenty short chapters, 1 being the introduction and 20 the conclusion. As I have mentioned earlier, the highlight of the volume is, in The Enneagram in the Writings of Gurdjieff opinion, the excerpts of unpublished material from Gurdjieff the group meetings on pp. It is not an explanation of the enneagram nor even a historical treatment of the enneagram craze, let alone of Gurdjieff. It is rather an engagement or exploration of the enneagram from several complementary perspectives: the most important of these is probably the psychological, although the mathematics and The Enneagram in the Writings of Gurdjieff are more eye-catching. But there is also philosophy and cosmology here. The enneagram, its significance, and its hidden symmetries and curiosities, seems to be its theme, with the chapters developing from more simple and mathematical concepts to the more complex and cosmological. That is the book as a whole. If one did not already know something of Gurdjieff, this book would not be the ideal introduction: but if one does, it is quite a useful task to engage with its engagement. It is interesting, but little more, in my opinion, to draw attention to the Fibonacci sequence where it naturally occurs. Where does that leave us? Open-mouthed and gaping? Let us say that there is a golden symmetry to the nautilus shell. I acknowledge that it is beautiful. But then what? What have we gained which simply contemplating this wonderful instance of creation did not itself provide? This is startling, perhaps, but to what does it lead? What is the practical continuation? What difference does it make to my life? If that is all there is, one might as well watch a modern movie: a form of pseudo-art which seems to rely on special effects, sentimentality, titillation, or a combination of these, and not much else. An idea can be such that I become aware of my own existence in front of the reality, a higher reality, of this idea. It is not that there is nothing in The Enneagram in the Writings of Gurdjieff critiques, but such phrases can too cheaply be exploited by people who are, in some respects at least, poseurs. As I see it, in this volume, anyhow, one will find an exploration, and not merely the striking of a pose. He then relates each brain to one of these dimensions. I follow his contention that the body moves in ordinary time, and the feelings bring an eternal quality to our consciousness. What I find harder to understand is his view that the mind is related to the third line. Is the mind really free to that idea? I am not persuaded. The value of this book, in places like this, is that it raises for pondering a fair and legitimate contention. Relative to the body and the feeling, I think that this is correct. So, I think that Wertenbaker is heading in the right direction. I wonder, however, if he has not drawn his correspondence too tightly? If these can be rewritten more clearly … Then, at 52, Wertenbaker admits that the well-known passage in Miraculous about the incorrect but significant placing of the interval is not clear to him.

Dynamic bonding patterns in n-tuple helices engendering n-fold rotating symbols Embedding the triple helix in a spherical octahedron Embedding the quadruple helix in a spherical cube Embedding the quintuple helix in a spherical dodecahedron and a Pentagramma Mirificum Embedding six-fold, eight-fold and ten-fold helices in appropriately encircled polyhedra Embedding twelve-fold, eleven-fold, nine-fold and seven-fold helices in appropriately encircled polyhedra Neglected recognition of logical patterns -- especially of opposition Dynamic relationship between polyhedra engendered by circles -- variously implying forms of unity Symbol rotation as dynamic essential to engaging with value-inversion References Introduction The contrast to the geocentric model of the solar system was framed by the Italian mathematician, physicist and philosopher Galileo Galilei (1564-1642). His much-cited phrase, " And yet it moves" (E pur si muove or Eppur si muove) was allegedly pronounced in 1633 when he was forced to recant his claims that the Earth moves around the immovable Sun rather than the converse -- known as the Galileo affair. Such a shift in perspective might usefully inspire the recognition that the stasis attributed so widely to logos and other much-valued cultural and heraldic symbols obscures the manner in which they imply a fundamental cognitive dynamic. Cultural symbols fundamental to the identity of a group might then be understood as variously moving and transforming in ways which currently elude comprehension.

  • Polygrams and Polygons
    Poligrams and Polygons THE TRIANGLE The Triangle is the only Lineal Figure into which all surfaces can be reduced, for every Polygon can be divided into Triangles by drawing lines from its angles to its centre. Thus the Triangle is the first and simplest of all Lineal Figures. We refer to the Triad operating in all things, to the 3 Supernal Sephiroth, and to Binah the 3rd Sephirah. Among the Planets it is especially referred to Saturn; and among the Elements to Fire. As the colour of Saturn is black and the Triangle that of Fire, the Black Triangle will represent Saturn, and the Red Fire. The 3 Angles also symbolize the 3 Alchemical Principles of Nature, Mercury, Sulphur, and Salt. As there are 3600 in every great circle, the number of degrees cut off between its angles when inscribed within a Circle will be 120°, the number forming the astrological Trine inscribing the Trine within a circle, that is, reflected from every second point. THE SQUARE The Square is an important lineal figure which naturally represents stability and equilibrium. It includes the idea of surface and superficial measurement. It refers to the Quaternary in all things and to the Tetrad of the Letter of the Holy Name Tetragrammaton operating through the four Elements of Fire, Water, Air, and Earth. It is allotted to Chesed, the 4th Sephirah, and among the Planets it is referred to Jupiter. As representing the 4 Elements it represents their ultimation with the material form. The 4 angles also include the ideas of the 2 extremities of the Horizon, and the 2 extremities of the Median, which latter are usually called the Zenith and the Nadir: also the 4 Cardinal Points.

Medieval sorcerers used triangles to bind spirits because they believed the limiting force of the triangle would confine the spirit. The triangle may be used in any effort to restrict, structure or limit anything. The number three also indicates cycles and therefore time, also a limiting factor appropriate to Saturn. The Square The square is related to Chesed, whose number is four. A square implies the form of a castle or walled structure, society, prestige, rulership and other Jupiterean qualities. The square also symbolizes structure beyond walls, it represents a completion or perfection; a "square deal" and three "square meals" a day illustrate the archetypal idea verbally. Also the four elements working in balanced harmony. The Pentagram The pentagram is the Force of Mars, and the sephira Geburah.

  • Gurdjieff , Enneagram and the Fourth Way
    Gurdjieff , Enneagram and the Fourth Way This essay will survey Gurdjieff's central ideas, locate his sources and delineate the main reasons for his "Work"; explain chief methods and evaluate his place in the history of ideas and in the contemporary visions of human condition. His life, one of the great adventure stories of the 20th century is not our concern ( an interested reader can consult Riordan-Speeth's book (1) as the best introduction to all things Gurdjieffian ) - ours is a more critical and investigative, even inquisitive approach. 1. Gurdjieff's Vison of Human Machine Gurdjieff can be best described as a blend of operating Theosophist and the protagonist of Neopythagorean/Rosicrucian-Hermetic doctrines in vogue these times ( turn of the 19/20th century.) What the Theosophical movement had been teaching in last two decades of the 19th century, Gurdjieff, armed with his vitalist temper and adventurous spirit tried to achieve in practice. For all the nice talk about India and "Masters", Theosophists remained an influential, but rather impotent debate club. Our hero, Georgi Ivanovitch Gurdjieff, yearned for "the right stuff" of superhuman mastery and actualization of the "miraculous", a pervasive theme during the fin de siecle. And now we shall expose what has been found in search of the miraculous- and the shameless quackery, too. 1a. Bodies Gurdjieff's's Theosophical "roots" can be traced in his analysis of a human being: he divides man (I'll use Biblical chauvinist Yahwespeak) into four "bodies": 1. Carnal or Physical Body 2. Astral/Kesdjan Body (feelings, desires) 3. Mental or Spiritual Body (mind, mental faculty) 4.

  • Representation of Creative Processes Through Dynamics in Three Dimensions Global Insight from Spherical Reframing of Mandalas, the Zodiac and the Enneagram -- /
    Alternative view of segmented documents via Kairos 13 October 2014 | Draft Representation of Creative Processes through Dynamics in Three Dimensions Global insight from spherical reframing of mandalas, the zodiac and the enneagram -- / -- Introduction Global insight implied by circular representation Spherical mapping of conditions traditionally associated with the zodiac Relevance to change, learning and creativity Transcending polar preoccupation Imagining the nature of cognitive "flight" in terms of the enneagram Meaningful cognitive navigation References Introduction The argument developed here derives from an exploration of the creativity of Nikola Tesla (Reimagining Tesla's Creativity through Technomimicry: psychosocial empowerment by imagining charged conditions otherwise, 2014). There it took the form of a separate section (Insight into global dynamics through Tesla's focus on the sphere, 2014). The focus and scope of that section, with its speculative animations, justified its separate development in this document into which the contents have been transferred. The concern here is with the learnings to be derived from spherical representation of cognitive dynamics -- especially in contrast to their representation framed in some way by a circle, as with mandalas, the zodiac or the enneagram. Missing from the separate discussion of Tesla's creativity was his considerable interest in the sphere -- both in relation to his energy experiments, and to his understanding of the terrestrial globe. There is a case for relating these to the later explorations of Buckminster Fuller (Synergetics: explorations in the geometry of thinking, 1975), as separately discussed (Geometry of Thinking for Sustainable Global Governance: cognitive implication of synergetics, 2009). With respect to Tesla, it was suggested that his creativity might be fruitfully explored in the light of technomimicry, as illustrated by that of Arthur M.

  • Intendant of the Building 1. a Nine-Pointed Star Is an Important Symbol in This Degree
    Eighth Degree: Intendant of the Building J. Winfield Cline Eighth Degree: Intendant of the Building 1. A nine-pointed star is an important symbol in this Degree. Discuss some of the various symbolic meanings and significance of the number 9 and its multiples. On page 136 of Morals and Dogma, in the essay for the eighth degree, Intendant of the Building, Brother Albert Pike writes that “you still advance toward the Light, toward that star, blazing in the distance, which is an emblem of the Divine Truth, given by God to the first men.” A light blazing in the east is a familiar symbol to all Master Masons, for “as the sun rises in the east,” so we are taught that symbolically the light of knowledge comes from the east. That is why the Worshipful Master sits in the east, so that he can “rule and govern his lodge” with the light of his wisdom, just as the sun rules and governs the day. This idea of light/knowledge/life coming from the east is not new. Remember, for instance, that the wise men followed a star that was shining in the east, leading them to the “Light of the World.” Likewise, a few decades later, Jesus made his triumphal entry into Jerusalem (what Christians now celebrate as Palm Sunday) from Bethany — from the east — symbolizing the triumph of light over darkness, freedom over oppression, and the Kingdom of Heaven over the Kingdom of Earth. In the eighth degree of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite we are told specifically that the star shining in the east is a nine-pointed star.

  • The Decad of Creation Sacred Geometry Upon the Tree of Life
    The Decad of Creation Sacred Geometry upon the Tree of Life Aaron Leitch One of the foundational texts of the Hebrew Qabalah is entitled the Sepher Yetzirah- the Book of Formation (or Creation). Likely written sometime near the dawn of the Common Era, it is a particularly Pythagorean interpretation of the Biblical formation of the universe. It describes God as manipulating both number and sound to accomplish the Creation. Keep in mind that sound- especially in the form of musical scales- is itself an important mathematical study. The numbers used by God to create are, of course, the same decad (numbers 1- 10) contemplated by Pythagoras and which form the basis of our own number systems to this day. This is actually more cultural than actual, as other base-number systems are possible. We use our base-ten mathematical system to illustrate the underlying principals of the universe- such as physics- therefore we assign special significance to the ten numbers that compose that system. The Sepher Yetzirah associates the decad with a Qabalistic concept called the ten "Sephiroth"- or Divine Sayings. The name likely originates with the ten instances of "God said..." found in Genesis I. Each Sephirah embodies one particular aspect of God during the act of Creation. As we will see below, the Sepher Yetzirah personified the Sephiroth as super- celestial Archangels.1 They are also presented as the embodiment of the mathematical decad. According to the text, God created the universe via "Number, Writing and Speech." Of Number, we are told in the first chapter: 2. Ten are the numbers, as are the Sephiroth..

  • The Sacred Geometry of the Leadership Circle Profile and the Universal Model of Leadership: Toward a Physics of Leadership
    THE SACRED GEOMETRY OF THE LEADERSHIP CIRCLE PROFILE AND THE UNIVERSAL MODEL OF LEADERSHIP: TOWARD A PHYSICS OF LEADERSHIP Bob Anderson Founder, Chairman & Chief Development Officer The Leadership Circle® ©The Leadership Circle, 2020 | All Rights Reserved Sacred Geometry of the Leadership Circle Profile ABSTRACT Nature scales in fractal geometries. Among these, and perhaps the core scaling geometries, are the circle/sphere, Pi, the equilateral triangle, the hexagon (the structure of carbon), the constant Phi, the Doubling Sequence, and the Fibonacci Sequence. This paper uses digital root math to find previously hidden patterns within the Fibonacci Sequence (as far as the author knows). The Fibonacci Sequence is found to pattern perfectly to the hexagon, the six-pointed star, Buckminster Fuller’s Vector Equilibrium (VE), and Nassim Harramein’s Isotropic Vector Matrix (IVM). Both the VE and the IVM are proposed by their respective authors as being the Structure of the Vacuum or the Zero-Point Quantum Field. This paper does not try to validate these theories but shows how Phi is related to hexagonal structures and how the Fibonacci Sequence, and the number patterns within it, relate to these theories. It will show how the Fibonacci Sequence is a hexagonal geometry comprised of zero-point mathematics (polarities that arise from zero in equal and opposite directions and sum to zero). The Leadership Circle’s Universal Model of Leadership (UML), the dynamic polarities within it, and its correlation matrix is found to be consistent/coherent with core scaling geometries. Human beings pattern their identities and the dynamics of their interaction to the same geometries.
