In the Name of Real World Views
The Most Impartial of Thoughts, Feelings and Actions
May you be blessed by its Noble Truth and be Enlightened with Real “I Am”
Views from the Real World
is above all the Life Stance Opus
Magnum Objective Manifesto for the Seekers of Truth, an OM OM for the Seekers of
Truth written for the coming 1st Decan of the Age of Aquarius.
The first book with this title of
Views from the Real World of Gurdjieff is from Gurdjieff’s Earlier Talks in
Moscow as recollected by his pupils which came into publication in 1973 and is
considered as the first initiating original life stance objective manifesto of
views from real world individuals with higher inner beings for a Fourth Way
pilgrimage. However,
Real World Views, as a continuation is the works of Tan Man Ho who was
inspired by the Gurdjieff's work and together with this first original works
of Gurdjieff as recollected by his pupils is the real Life Stance Opus Magnum
Objective Manifesto of the 1st Decan of the Age of
Aquarius much needed by the Seekers of Truth - a complete treatise for people on the Fourth
Way pilgrimage to acquire higher being bodies with Aquarian characteristics.
Like Gurdjieff’s Third Series, the mission of this Life Stance Opus
Magnum Objective Manifesto from Real World Views is:
To assist the arising, in the mentation and in the feelings of the
reader, of a veritable, non-fantastic representation not of that illusory world
which he now perceives, but of the world existing in reality
Gurdjieff’s three series known as All and
Everything which consists of ‘Beelzebub’s
Tales to His Grandson’ (First series, first published in 1950), ‘Meetings with
Remarkable Men’ (Second series, first published in 1963) and the incomplete work
‘Life is Real Only then When ‘I Am’’ (Third series, privately printed in 1974)
together it is the Gurdjieff’s Aquarian Bible for the Seekers of Truth.
Details of the three series of Gurdjieff’s writings are:
FIRST SERIES: Three books under the title of “An
Objectively Impartial Criticism of the Life of Man,” or, “Beelzebub’s Tales to
His Grandson.”
SECOND SERIES: Three books under the common title of
“Meetings with Remarkable Men.”
THIRD SERIES: Four books under the common title of
“Life Is Real Only Then, When ‘I Am.’”
All written according to entirely new
principles of logical reasoning and strictly directed towards the solution of
the following three cardinal problems:
FIRST SERIES: To destroy, mercilessly, without any
compromises whatsoever, in the mentation and feelings of the reader, the beliefs
and views, by centuries rooted in him, about everything existing in the world.
SECOND SERIES: To acquaint the reader with the
material required for a new creation and to prove the soundness and good quality
of it.
THIRD SERIES: To assist the arising, in the
mentation and in the feelings of the reader, of a veritable, non-fantastic
representation not of that illusory world which he now perceives, but of the
world existing in reality.
Views from the Real World
of Gurdjieff and
Real World Views of Tan
Man Ho have the same impact in tone, vigor, graciousness and fragrance of
the third series of Gurdjieff’s writings -
Life is Real Only Then When I Am.
It is the branch from an interval of the Gurdjieff’s Aquarian Bible.
All other writings from Gurdjieff’s direct and indirect future
generations of the same breed and also from pupils of the highest rank together
have produced a continuum of knowledge for the generation to come. Both
Gurdjieff Movements which is the
moving center calisthenics and the Gurdjieff’s Music of Thomas de Hartmann which is the feeling
center’s food in sound forms are the holistic integration of the same breed.
Das Kapital together with the
philosophy of Dialectical Materialism (the early stage of the formation and
consolidation of Trioctave Materialism) is often called Marx’s Aquarian Bible of
the working class and so is the political Communist Manifesto which is this
Aquarian Bible’s social-economic and political manifesto.
The international communist party is their sociocosmic realization which
is organizational and has missions and goals centered on the historical survival
of the majority working people at large. Here,
Views from the Real World is the Life
Stance Opus Magnum Objective Manifesto of Gurdjieff’s Aquarian Bible for the
Seekers of Truth and the Fourth Way schools is their sociocosmic realization
which is organizational and is very broad-based. The
religious Piscean Bible and all the other Piscean Holy Scriptures from different
great religions that have emerged from planet Earth during the Astrological Age of
Pisces, hitherto, have their creeds (religious manifestos) and organizational
schools for havatvernonian proned believers. While
Gurdjieff’s Aquarian Bible and the Opus Magnum Objective Manifesto is able to
attract the havatvernonian proned non-believers and believers, fence-sitters,
atheists, idealists, materialists and all spiritualists alike.
All historically march in three, as if pre-ordained by higher beings to obey the
Law of Three (trinity), and manifest as octaves in obedience to the Law of Seven
(eightfoldness).
In the Name of Real World Views, The Most Impartial of Thoughts, Feelings and
Actions, it is written and calculated to create conditions in which man would be
continually reminded of the sense and aim of his existence by an unavoidable
friction between his conscience and the automatic manifestations of his nature.
In the Name of Real World Views, The
Most Impartial of Thoughts, Feelings and Actions, May you be blessed by its
Noble Truth and be Enlightened with Real “I Am”.
