Synopsis

This is the third and final volume of Gurdjieff's 'All and Everything' series, in which the great man offers words of wisdom and guidance to those following his path. "Life is Real Only Then, When 'I Am'" comprises a prologue, the contents of five lectures given to his closest confidants in the late 1930s, and an unfinished essay 'The Outer and Inner World of man', sadly unfinished at Gurdjieff's death on 29th October 1949. This book was privately published and has only recently become more widely available - it is an invaluable source for anyone interested in the 'oeuvre' of one of the most remarkable men of the twentieth century.

About the Author

Gurdjieff was born in Alexandropol, and trained in Kars both as a priest and a physician. For some twenty years, he travelled in the remotest regions of Central Asia and the Middle East - this time was crucial in the moulding of his thought. With his party of followers, he was responsible for the opening of the Institute for the Harmonious Development of Man.

Other key works available from Arkana: BEELZEBUB'S TALES TO HIS GRANDSON, VIEWS FROM THE REAL WORLD and MEETINGS WITH REMARKABLE MEN.
