Gurdjieff - Hypnotic "waking sleep" (1866-1949) +

[kookomula]

Gurdjieff claimed that people do not perceive reality, as they are not conscious of themselves, but live in a state of hypnotic "waking sleep".

"Man lives his life in sleep, and in sleep he dies". Gurdjieff taught that each person perceived things from a completely subjective perspective. Gurdjieff stated that maleficent events such as wars and so on could not possibly take place if people were more awake. He asserted that people in their typical state function as unconscious automatons, but that a man can wake up and experience life more fully.

Gurdjieff and the Sarmoung Brotherhood, Robert Bruce Baird

Frank Lloyd Wright said Gurdjieff was the greatest man of his century. FDR appointed Wright and Baruch to re-construct Europe and start a real New World Order. Baruch was a student of Gurdjieff too - and this means a lot if you want to know who runs things.
