Fourth Way

The Fourth Way proposes to work simultaneously on the Moving Center (body and physical health), Emotional Center (feelings, emotions, and mysticism), and Intellectual Center (development of thought and knowledge). The result: practical and theoretical knowledge about men and women in the 21st century, addressing many of our conflicts and fulfilling the inner development needs of contemporary individuals. The Fourth Way is the path of the balanced man and woman. Introduced at the beginning of the last century by an enigmatic and charismatic figure named George Ivanovitch Gurdjieff, who was born in Armenia in 1866 and passed away in Paris in 1949. His 83 years of life were marked by the adventure and passion to provide humanity with knowledge that liberates it from psychological enslavement—not a physical slavery but one of ignorance, fears, prejudices, doubts, or negative emotions. Faced with this psychological disintegration, Gurdjieff proposes the integration of various paths of development through comprehensive and simultaneous work on all our Centers or Functions. The Fourth Way suggests working simultaneously on the Moving Center (body and physical health), Emotional Center (feelings, emotions, and mysticism), and Intellectual Center (development of thought and knowledge).
