New poem: "Is Gurdjieff Still Relevant Today?"

 

 

Is Gurdjieff Still Relevant Today?

 

Is Gurdjieff still relevant today,

the mystic philosopher who influenced

so many and broke the hearts of more;

the charismatic teacher of the Fourth

Way Teaching, the Work, the System, 

“esoteric Christianity,” and the “way

of the sly man” who believed that we

are not born with an immortal soul,   

that Nature has done all it can for us,

and that we have to take evolution into

our own hands to create our own soul

and complete what Nature cannot finish,

is he still relevant today with all that

information online on healing our

broken spirits with past-life

regression therapy?

 

Composed in Tiny Beaches,

Georgian Bay, Southcentral, Ontario
