The Enneagram - Gurdjieff and the Wisdom of Sacred Geometry

[@josephraymorgan]

As a sacred geometry tool I am amazed to the facts of creating the periodical table. Using law of fifths & sevens unknown elements have been created. John Coltrane followed the same rules to create his spiritual jazz music.

Love you Fourth Way thank you for all that you do.

This overlays beautifully with the circle of 9 points (Vedic Science) - ROCK ON!

Great presentation. Thanks for bringing up the Chief Feature, an under emphasized thread of G's teaching. My own epiphany about the enneagram was the one of the kitchen, which revealed the inner circulation as the chef's intentions vs. the outer path as the chronological kitchen activity. The cooking. (J. G. Bennett's book)

One source of the enneagram is alluded to in a footnote in Ouspensky's "In Search of the Miraculous" showing the 9 point circle of Abraham ibn Ezra. Also mentioned is a French book by S. Karppe on the Zohar, which contains a diagram of the tree of life. Another souce is the tetragram diagram shown in Madam Blavatsky's "Isis Unveiled".

Interesting , I had a vivid dream of this symbol recently .

Excellent video! So many misunderstand the beauty of symbolism and try to force one meaning to it. It is a diagram of perpetual motion, a representation of the octave and the disapation of the energy among the tonic solfa if it is insufficient to complete the octave. These are just the first few that come to mind. Once you realize everything is governed by the octave it can literally be used in infinite ways. Gurdjieff stated that the science of "types" or "personalities" consisted of 12 fundamental types and according to legend were represented by the twelve apostles. "A symbol possesses an endless number of aspects from which it can be examined and it demands from a person the ability to see it simultaneously from different points of view. Symbols which are transposed into the words of ordinary language become rigid in them, they grow dim and very easily become their own opposites ... the cause of this is the literal understanding of symbols, in attributing to a symbol a single meaning." - Georges I. Gurdjieff Again wonderful video! Thank you! 🙏

5:46 Regarding the movement inside the enneagram.. Take any number that can not be evenly divided by 7. Divide it by 7. The remainder will always exhibit the pattern within the enneagram. A few examples.. 71 ÷ 7 = 10.142857142857... 66 ÷ 7 = 9.428571428571428... 19 ÷ 7 = 2.714285714285714... The same pattern of movement within the enneagram: 1-4-2-8-5-7. Sometimes the remainder starts at the beginning, sometimes the middle, other times at the end of the pattern.. but regardless the pattern is always present and will repeat ad infinum. ❤

I’m the 333th like -enjoying this presentation.

The first single Equilateral Triangle gives the APEX of the PYRAMID: the E.T. with the EYE lilluminating It. The double TRIANGLE is SOLOMON'S SEAL or MAGEN DAVID. The triple gives the NINE POINTED STAR and The ENNEAGRAM.

[@quest_onchannel54]

Good but I think it would have been better if you had also shared the archetypal personalities of each level. You only said you were 5, the investigator. Not sure I see how applicable the system is without understanding that layer. Ty anyway

[@The4thway]

Thanks, I was trying to keep the video from being too long, but I have another video coming out in a few days that will go into greater detail into the types

[@damianmarshall4001]

Shame you said external for 2 and extroverted for 4... I think 4 was supposed to be introverted according to the chart

[@The4thway]

Yeah thanks for catching it I meant introverted for 4 that’s right, I’ll try to edit the audio at some point if I can

How many people run your brand across accounts? You do a good job of putting out a lot. Are you the proprietor and the reporter in this video?

[@The4thway]

It’s mostly just me with occasional help from someone else

[@xxispeth]

These teachings have given me so many tools I use as a combat sports coach in the development of my fighters. I see it in everything. I see everything in everything now though 😂

OMG... ☀

[@pikejaw]

The original enneagram does not count the triangle in the middle. 3 polarity, 6 polarity, 9-Neutral exit door. All other points follow the music scale like the cosmos, and they move like in vortex math. We are in constant flow through all, we pause at our number, we are not that number. 1,4,2,8,5,7....moves in the vortex constantly. We are all connected spiritually through all the numbers. And eventually we all change numbers.

[@brettdavidson1140]

Well done.

It's profound and interesting and amusing that enneagrams are elevated to the status of "sacred Geometry". There seems to be a huge gulf of ancient wisdom missing or stolen or screwed with here. There is a twelve pointed algebraic group representation that has been dismissed out of hand by mental midgets. There is a lie at the bottom of this subject. Perhaps the Topic of the ancient wisdom of the pundits should be considered. This would involve the "sacred Geometry" of the Hindus among others. For me, enneagrams are just a poor man's Astrology. Too bad. So much to learn, so little time left to make it right.
