Exploring the Teaching of Gurdjieff WHEN YOU REALIZE THAT ALL YOUR KNOWLEDGE IS THEORETICAL

"There comes a moment when you realize that all your knowledge is theoretical.

Many of the ideas that you accepted and thought you understood quite well suddenly take on an additional meaning. They are seen with an extra dimension. The depth and the significance of a principle you believed you had absorbed and assimilated become different. Even though they may still seem vague, many unforseen ideas of this so-called 'well understood' idea begin to appear as if waiting to be discovered. You believed you 'knew all about it.'

Knowledge that is illuminated inside oneself ceases to be theoretical."

William Segal
