Description
A further discussion of the mechanical part of the intellectual center: Im. The study of centers, especially as they are compared to each other, suggests that Im has a quite different purpose, structure and process. Ouspensky was clearly fascinated with this mechanism and wrote about it in his Psychology of Man’s Possible Evolution. The purpose of this class study was to consider Ouspensky’s idea, its inconsistency with other of his own ideas and Gurdjieff’s ideas as expressed in his lectures In Search of the Miraculous. This paper contains further considerations of the center activity found in man’s reality process structure. There are references to Brain Systems.
