Beelzebub's Tales to His Grandson: An Objectively Impartial Criticism of the Life Man - All & Everything/First Series

Gurdjieff, in his writings, intended to awaken people to their own inner possibilities and potential. Beelzebub's Tales To His Grandson , the three books that constitute the first series in Gurdjieff's trilogy All and Everything , distills the essence of his ideas. This book examines life on earth from the viewpoint of beings belonging to a distant world, led by the all-wise Beelzebub , who is able to perceive the weaknesses and follies of humanity and, through his compassion, can point the way towards possible regeneration. Through this cosmic allegory, Gurdjieff demonstrates a methodology for the spiritual growth of mankind.
