Of the many pupils who gathered around G.I. Gurdjieff, certain among them attained a level of understanding that enabled them to transmit the teaching to groups in many parts of the world. Christopher Fremantle was one of these. When Jeanne de Salzmann, Gurdjieff's successor, asked some of the older people who had worked with Gurdjieff to write about the Work, Fremantle began to dictate notes on the aspects he had explored. These notes were read aloud at meetings of his groups, and are reproduced in this volume. Fremantle brings a fresh response to the questions of attention and transformation.
"When one ponders the ideas that Christopher Fremantle has chosen to write about, one realizes that the author goes to the core of the matter. He poses questions that are worthy of man, that challenge one to go beyond oneself and that spur one to liberate the best in oneself."
--William Segal, author of Opening
