by Peter D. Ouspensky (Author)
Ouspensky's unique series of five 'psychological lectures' describe not what Humanity is now, but what it may become.
Most people are 'asleep' - they act mechanically, are not totally conscious of their own existence, and are filled with a multitude of ephemeral and competing 'I's. To awaken - to find inner unity - one must first become continually self-aware, a difficult task that requires special techniques, sustained effort over many years, and the help of a bona fide 'school' of wisdom.
In these lectures, originally meant only for a select few, Ouspensky gives invaluable guidance for those starting out on this most important of all quests. Included in this edition are the 'Notes on Decision to Work', a vital adjunct to understanding his philosophy and method. A book that will repay careful study over many years.
