The Psychology of Man's Possible Evolution
Categories: Religion & Spirituality
Russian philosopher P. D. Ouspensky presents a short introduction to the psychological ideas he learned from G. I. Gurdjieff. First printed privately in the 1940s as Six Psychological Lectures, the book argues that people normally live in a kind of sleep and can develop higher states of consciousness through self-observation and effort. Ouspensky explains the system's ideas about consciousness and change.

- Shane Parrish: “These lectures, which were originally called Six Psychological Lectures, were first privately printed in the 1940s. Of the first run of 150 copies, none were sold. The essays were published once again after Ouspensky’s death, and unlike last time became a hit.”
