GURDJIEFF WITHDREW THE BOOK from publication because it did not have the desired effect, but, while difficult to read, it provides an invaluable perspective. He speaks about Tzvanorharno, the subconscious, hypnotism, vanity and the discovery "that the force and degree of man's inner benevolence evokes in others a proportionate degree of ill-will."

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.
