The Secret within Music: Gurdjieff, Steiner, and the Sufis, Music by Laurence Galian

[SororThothma]

Very good work.

Gurdjieff and Steiner's teachings mesh well with the research of Joseph P. Farrell, PhD. Farrell's research into ancient prehistoric highly technologically sophisticated cultures is something you may want to investigate.

Also, Pablo no longer is an Ayahuascaro. Dr. Luna says Amaringo has changed.

Entheogens and music are deeply intertwined.

Gnothi seauton et pax tecum.

@SororThothma I'm a great fan of Joseph P. Farrell, PhD. Amazing man. He has opened up entire avenues of investigation because of his profoundly well-researched work. Farrell is no light-weight. He doesn't borrow or climb on top of other's shoulders, but in his humble way stands taller than most of the writers out there. Hmmm...

Great insightful video. Does anybody know anything about the second image that appears at 00:07 ?

OH MY!!! Magnificent video. I am having my morning coffee and have to force myself to stay in my chair. I will dance to this....keep up your wonderful work.

I love "the work" and am grateful to weave it into my life now after many detours . Music COMPLETES IT....(and movement),

love to you!!

@DeeGran Heart-felt thanks for your words. May our lives become works of Art.

Beautiful video. Could you please tell me the name of the painting that appears right after the Hazrat Inayat Khan quote (the one showing the bare back of a dancer)? Thank you.

[Gargeniture]

@PinkertonStudsworth , @PinkertonStudsworth, Thanks! I believe it is the work of the Peruvian shaman Pablo Amaringo, who is the most famous and gifted of Ayahuasca artists working today.

[PinkertonStudsworth]

@Gargeniture Thank you for the reply, but are you sure? The painting I'm referring to is the one at 13:46. It does not appear to be an Amaringo (although the one right after it might be).

@MusicOfMystery, Have you read any of Fabien Maman's books? It sounds like you are doing great work already. As long as you keep focusing on your goal to elevate humanity with music, then you cannot go wrong. I suggest (seriously) that you sit for 20 minutes a day and think how you can relate Gurdjieff's teachings to your music. Eventually you will know.

@Gargeniture Sorry for late reply, I didn't saw your answer. Thank you very much for your suggestion, I will commit to introspection in that way. Also, I will check that guy (Fabien Maman), I haven't read anything from him yet. Thank you very much.

@Gargeniture, thanks for your answer. My interest in particular is to study and practice objective music. I'm already committed to Gurdjieff's movements and the study of the system in practice groups. I also found very interesting what Steiner and the sufis say about music. Sufi music is very profound, very spiritual. I'm currently reading about the law of octaves, but I can't yet relate it with music in practice. I'm here to know how to elevate me/my brothers with music. I appreciate any info.

Hi, were can I find the complete source material for reading? Thanks!

[Gargeniture]

@MusicOfMystery, Almost all of the material can be found through the used book services at Amazon.com. The quotes are from a very wide variety of books written by (and about) these great masters. Is there something in particular that interests you?
