Remembering - being with my teacher (Paperback)


One student's storybook-tribute to a living teaching shepherded and unsparingly nourished by a man without quotation marks: Lord John Pentland, President of the Gurdjieff Foundation in North America. A collage of achingly-touching, ego-diminishing, cosmic and comic stories which could only have unfolded face-to-face with a genuine teacher whose larger-than-life lessons reawakened and unplugged that soul-spark-of-conscience we all hunger for bringing another scale of meaning to our everyday existence. Lord Pentland, aka LP to those closest to him, is portrayed here as a fully human, extraordinary being who personally saw to the developing consciousness of many with a loving impartiality only teachers humbled by authentic experience can impart. Under his direct guiding Presence this student, as well as her peers, were challenged to ask themselves how far they could "see" what Mr. Gurdjieff called "the terror of the situation" and which efforts could help. Whatever your spiritual path or inclination, this heart-telling "read" is intended to encourage all of us to recall and reconnect with the ONEness we are part of and our real Self.
