Meetings with Remarkable Men
Meetings with Remarkable Men | G Gurdjieff
2 posts | 3 read
These are the memoirs of the great mystic and teacher who inspired a generation of disciples and followers before, during and briefing after the Second World War. In Meetings With Remarkable Men Gurdjieff introduces us to some of the companions he encountered in his travels to the most remote regions of Central Asia. With colorful episodes from his adventures, he brings to life the story of his own relentless search for a real and universal knowledge. The book can be read as a colorful narrative or psychological autobiography, but the meaning of its contents can be better appreciated in relation to the expositions of his previously published ideas.

A pair of scoundrels! I was half way through Gurdjieff‘s ‘Meetings‘, ostensibly an autobiographical account of his youth and early travels, when I realised he‘d made it all up. Brilliantly funny, though, even so. Alas, Osho‘s own attempt at emulating his mentor falls well short and the result is mostly drivel. Thumbs up for Gurdjieff, two thumbs down for his copyist.
