Beelzebub's Tales to His Grandson: An Objectively Impartial Criticism Life Man All & Everything 3rd Series Hardcover - 1993
by G. I. Gurdjieff
From the publisher
First line
Among other convictions formed in my common presence during my responsible, peculiarly composed life, there is one such also-an indubitable conviction-that always and everywhere on the earth, among people of every degree of development of understanding and of every form of manifestation of the factors which engender in their individuality all kinds of ideals, there is acquired the tendency, when beginning anything new, unfailingly to pronounce aloud or, if not aloud, at least mentally, that definite utterance understandable to every even quite illiterate person, which in different epochs has been formulated variously and in our day is formulated in the following words: "In the name of the Father and of the Son and in the name of the Holy Ghost. Amen."

Viking/Arkana/Penguin, 1992. First Thus. Hardcover. Near Fine Condition/Near Fine. b/w. frontis. photo. of the author; titles, 'friendly advice' (by Gurdjieff) & contents pages to front. Integral red silk bookmark. Gurdjieff, in his writings, intended to "awaken" people to their own inner possibilities and potential.
