"An imposing edifice of thought. Every one of its twenty chapters
will richly repay careful reading. Those passages dealing with
ethics, love, the significance of knowledge, and the meaning of
life are hard to surpass." - New York Evening Post The title of
this book, Tertium Organum, boldly refers no less to a
reorganization of all knowledge, but it is primarily a study of
psychology, more specifically the psychology of our higher mind.
For Ouspensky what we can call the higher mind represents, within a
single person, the development of an entirely new way of
understanding. In short, psychology is the art of self-study. With
remarkable scope and sophistication, Ouspensky shows us in this
book, which has been hailed as "a work of genius," just how vast
and strange our universe really is. P. D. [PETYR DEMIANOVICH]
OUSPENSKY (1878-1947) was a Russian mathematician and philosopher
turned mystic, who combined geometry and psychology in his
discussion of higher dimensions of existence. After traveling
through Europe and the East, seeking unsuccessfully the world's
centers where ancient esoteric knowledge and wisdom are not only
preserved, but taught to initiates, he returned to Russia where he
met and studied under G.I. Gurdjieff. Ouspensky is today best known
for his expositions of the early work of this famous Russian
mystic.
