Consciousness

“Faith of consciousness is freedom – Faith of feeling is weakness Faith of body is stupidity – Love of consciousness evokes the same in response – Love of feeling evokes the opposite Love of body depends only on type and polarity – Hope of consciousness is strength – Hope of feeling is slavery Hope of body is disease”   Beelzebub’s Tales to His Grandson, G.I. Gurdjieff

Consciousness comes from above, not from below. I begin to see that what I need more than anything else is consciousness; not to do something but to see. Change comes of itself as a result of seeing, of consciousness.

In relation to the law of three, one thing in me opposes, another affirms; a muscle opposes an emotion. Where is the reconciling force, where is the master? Otherwise I am a slave to forces in disorder. I am not united, not whole, I am legion, I am not One.
