Product Description

Product Description

When Maurice Nicholl was studying in Zurich, he met Jung, and Ouspensky. He went on to study with Gurdjieff, and from 1931 to his death in 1953, he began at Ouspensky's request, a programme of work devoted to passing on the ideas he had received. Reissued in hard cover, these five unedited commentaries are taken from the weekly lectures and talks Nicoll gave to his students in England and which were recorded verbatim; the sixth volume is an index produced by the Gurdjieff society Washington DC. These differ from Nicholl's more polished works - they are more concerned with directly applying certain deep ideas to daily life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Serious self help for those aware of a larger existance., 12 Jun 1998
By A Customer
These books are for people confused by, or struggling with life.If you know, somewhere deep with-in, that there is a much greater meaning to life than that which you behold on a daily basis, if you possess what the Author refers to as "magnetic center", than these volumes could be for you. It's safe to assume that, in todays world,the very idea of one questioning their relationship to life and the cosmos are largely non exsistant. This is why the world is in the condition that it is in.I couldn't possibly go into the psycology the books offer here. The information is serious. It is real. It's not for everybody. It wasn't intended to be.For me, when I hear more and more about children shooting children on play grounds, and life seems to slip further and further into what a sane person would call insanity, Maurice Nicole has provided a life line that i can hold on to tightly.

5.0 out of 5 stars The commentaries of Nicoll are vast., 15 Feb 1999
By A Customer
The commentaries of Nicoll are vast; 5 volumes (the 6th. volume is an index) with thousands and thousands of pages... but if one takes the trouble one is immensely benefitted. By reading them, the condensed picture painted by Ouspensky in his "In Search Of The Miraculous" is gradually unraveled; it becomes clear how the many facets of the teaching of Gurdjieff are interlinked into one whole which is truly a sparkling diamond. The reader changes in the course of reading because his awareness is sharpened and his understanding of himself/herself grows. The Commentaries have changed my life irreversibly, and it still gets better and better.
