More From G. I. Gurdjieff
Listen, You Have Now Found The Conditions In Which The Desire Of Your Heart Can Become The Reality Of Your Being. Stay Here, Until You Acquire A Force In You That Nothing Can Destroy. Then You'll Need To Go Back Into Life, And There You Will Measure Yourself Constantly With Forces Which Will Show You Your Place.

A Man Must First Of All Understand Certain Things. He Has Thousands Of False Ideas And False Conceptions, Chiefly About Himself, And He Must Get Rid Of Some Of Them Before Beginning To Acquire Anything New. Otherwise The New Will Be Built On A Wrong Foundation And The Result Will Be Worse Than Before. To Speak The Truth Is The Most Difficult Thing In The World; One Must Study A Great Deal And For A Long Time In Order To Speak The Truth. The Wish Alone Is Not Enough. To Speak The Truth One Must Know What The Truth Is And What A Lie Is, And First Of All In Oneself. And This Nobody Wants To Know.

Knowledge Can Be Acquired By A Suitable And Complete Study, No Matter What The Starting Point Is. Only One Must Know How To "learn." What Is Nearest To Us Is Man; And You Are The Nearest Of All Men To Yourself. Begin With The Study Of Yourself; Remember The Saying "know Thyself."
