Taking with the Left Hand:
Enneagram Craze, The Fellowship of Friends
& the Mouravieff 'Phenomenon'

by William Patrick Patterson
Cover of Taking With the Left Hand THE FIRST BOOK TO examine the spiritual theft and appropriation that marks our time. A detailed and well-documented study, it illustrates how the enneagram movement commercialized an ancient alchemical symbol, how Robert Burton, founder of The Fellowship of Friends, arrogated the Fourth Way teaching, and how Boris Mouravieff plagiarized and tried to appropriate it.

This book is available through the Gurdjieff Legacy online bookstore. Gurdjieff Legacy carries Fourth Way books, videos and music as well as an interesting selection of hard-to-find books on a variety of esoteric topics.
