"The Reality of Being," by Jeanne de Salzmann

In this episode, which originally aired in radio format on June 9th, 2022, I explore some of the ideas presented in the first 100 pages of Jeanne de Salzmann's book, The Reality of Being: The Fourth Way of Gurdjieff. Such concepts include the "ordinary I" or "individual self," the relationship between information and intelligence, the perpetual oldness of thought, the importance of connecting with one's body in order to know one's truth, how tension in the body prevents such knowing, how we ARE what we observe, and what de Salzmann calls "the most important question of my life."
