] Gurdjieff PDX - The Practice - weekly meetings in Portland

The Friendly House

Group Meetings

"A man alone can do nothing. He must find someone who knows." The meetings are lively exchanges of people's attempts to practice the teaching during the week. We are interested in practicing the Work as it has been passed down through oral transmission.

Ideas

People are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the teaching by reading certain "Work" books on their own.

Attention Exercises

These exercises are designed to help us struggle with our habits and work for being in the present moment.

Meditation

We begin each meeting with a brief silent meditation.
