We focus on George Ivanovich Gurdjieff’s seminal work, Beelzebub’s Tales to His Grandson, a part of his trilogy All and Everything. This text provides deep insights into Gurdjieff’s understanding of spiritual progress and offers a unique perspective on self-identity within the context of self-spirituality and Western esotericism. Through the narrative, Gurdjieff presents a cosmological model known as the “Ray of Creation” and introduces the concept of the “Kundabuffer”, a unique organ implanted in humans to distort their perception of reality.
Furthermore, the episode explores how Gurdjieff’s ideas on the necessity of conscious effort for spiritual development contrast starkly with modern passive existences, where individuals react automatically to external stimuli. His teachings emphasize the transformative potential of embracing rigorous self-examination and disciplined spiritual practices.
