Infant Psychology (and its Influence)

A Necessary Component of Self-Work

This paper references a number of pieces of published Fourth Way literature, notably Beelzebub’s Tales to His Grandson, Burton’s Self-Remembering, Ouspensky’s In Search of the Miraculous, and Speeth’s The Gurdjieff Work. Nomenclature from Brain Systems is used, but explained in the text in some cases. Class study on this topic included significant requirements of efforts at personal memories of childhood thoughts. The essential argument for attention to Infant Psychology is an increased awareness of the organic origin of certain thoughts which may resist adult self-remembering work.
