On the third Thursday of each month we gather to watch films that open a possibility of investigation and dialogue — about the searches that guide our lives, our own possibilities for awakening, for observing and remembering ourselves.Each evening stands complete on its own while contributing to an ongoing exploration. We watch, and then we talk together. No prior knowledge of Gurdjieff’s teaching is required — only an interest in the questions these films raise. We hope you come with questions of your own as well.
We're beginning with Seekers of Truth, Part One
Conceived by Michel de Salzmann and realized by Jean-Claude Lubtchansky, this documentary offers a rich biography of G.I. Gurdjieff — and a set of insights and questions for any sincere seeker. This evening we watch the first part, which traces Gurdjieff’s early influences, the teachers who set him on his search, and the founding of his Institute for the Harmonious Development of Man.
Questions rise as we follow his quest: How can I begin to find my purpose? What does it mean to be fully human? What is the role of the subconscious in a deeper understanding of myself? What is my aim?
Want to let us know you're coming? RSVP appreciated but not required.
