So, for the last 5-6 years that I have been heavily studying all things mysterious and hidden from mainstream view, I came across three people who intrigued me more than most: P. D. Ouspensky (I have downloaded a lot of his books/lectures but haven't fully dived into them as of yet), G. Gurdjeff (whose work focuses on the "Fourth Way" to enlightenment, the other three being 'physical' 'emotional' and 'spiritual'. Those of us who are SS know the spiritual route is the main way to go, given you have the proper knowledge to know how) and Carl Jung (who created Jungian psychology and explored psychology in the literary form in the book Liber Novus, which I have recently started reading.)
My question being, has anyone else studied these authors and what is your take on their work?
With Ouspensky being the least studied of the three in my own account, I can't really give my take on his works just yet; but with Gurdjeff and Jung, I felt especially called to them. I greatly admire Jung for spending so many years of his life, trying to understand the inner workings of the subconscious mind. He spent years perfecting the individuation process; integrating the darkest parts of ourselves and coming out of the stages of individuation as a reborn being, complete and whole. And with Gurdjeff, he also spent majority of his life immersed in study, travel, and finding the hidden secrets and different ways we as human beings can achieve enlightenment, until he finally found the Fourth Way.
The main theme between these men speaks to me clearly; they, just as most human beings, were searching for ways to understand our experience better, and articulating their opinions on how to make our personal experience with life better. Many of the greatest minds in history were humble souls who simply just wanted to know MORE; to FULLY seek understanding and to not just sit on the information learned, but to integrate it into their lives to in turn make it inherently better. From the philosophers of Ancient Greece, to the modern day minds alike, we all have one thing in common; every single one of us yearns for knowledge to understand our purpose of life on Earth.
In todays day and age, where there is a literal war on truth, people like Jung and Gurdjeff, Socrates, Plato; all these men LEFT the world in a better way than they found it. Just as the mission of Joy of Satanas is to spread the truth, awaken the masses, uncover the corruption; I cannot express into words the amount of pure love and adoration that I have for this community.
Sorry for rambling there at the end, lol. But yeah, anyways; so what are your thoughts on the works of Jung, Gurdjeff, Ouspensky and the like and what is your favorite work by them if you are familiar with them?
Also, if you have any recommendations of other authors/philosophers/mystics that you guys enjoy, feel free to drop some so myself and others can indulge as well
