Attending a meeting
If you are in the Philadelphia area, you are welcome to come to an introductory meeting and see how our group works together. A visit is worth a thousand words... or pictures.

The
open meetings for visitors are usually the first
and third Sunday evenings of each month at 5:00
PM. Typically, meetings begin with a brief live
piano recital of Gurdjieff/DeHartmann and/or
classical music. The meeting includes attention
work, such as sitting and walking meditation,
chanting, drumming, music and divided attention
exercises.
Frequently there is a topic for presentation
and/or discussion, related to the psychological
models and other concepts of the Fourth Way,
from the perspective of practical daily application
to one's life. Other segments of the meeting
may involve mindful movements and music, which require
no prior experience.
Thus the meetings provide a forum for integrated development of intellectual mind, emotion and body, and hands-on experience with a broad spectrum of tools that appeal to many different ways of learning.
There are occasional Mindful Movements workshops which provide an opportunity of extended practice with the body-centered techniques, but in a context of refined understanding.
Call
for more information, or to register and confirm
the location of meetings or workshops. The location
is usually in the East Falls neighborhood of Philadelphia
near public transportation (R8 or R6 commuter line).
