Tertium Organum, which he believed was the third major
philosophical synthesis, the previous being those of Aristotle and
Bacon. Originally issued in Russian in 1912, this is the second,
revised edition. It was translated into English and published in
1922.
The Tertium Organum by P. D. Ouspensky explains the author's
philosophy of human behavior, and attempts to reconcile the natural
sciences with the theological and spiritual beliefs developed by
mankind. A bold and ambitious work of philosophy, Tertium Organum
is a committed attempt to establish a new model of the universe
from the perspective of humanity. Our individual reality and
perceptions, the application and development of the sciences, and
our relationship with the spiritual and the divine form background
themes in what is often an intense and focused explanation of
reality. The author does not stray to fanciful notions, but embarks
and maintains a route of reasoned explanation after the style of
the theosophical movement. P. D. Ouspensky was born in Russia and
first worked at a newspaper in Moscow. World War I proved almost
disastrous to his spiritual and professional life; the Tertium
Organum, originally written and published in Russia, was assumed
lost amid the conflict.
A new edition of the groundbreaking spiritual treasure, with a
foreword by bestselling author Marianne Williamson .
Since its original publication in 1949, In Search of the Miraculous
has been hailed as the most valuable and reliable documentation of
G. I. Gurdjieff's thoughts and universal view. This historic and
influential work is considered by many to be a primer of mystical
thought as expressed through the Work, a combination of Eastern
philosophies that had for centuries been passed on orally from
teacher to student. Gurdjieff's goal, to introduce the Work to the
West, attracted many students, among them Ouspensky, an established
mathematician, journalist, and, with the publication of In Search
of the Miraculous, an eloquent and persuasive proselyte.
Ouspensky describes Gurdjieff's teachings in fascinating and
accessible detail, providing what has proven to be a stellar
introduction to the universal view of both student and teacher. It
goes without saying that In Search of the Miraculous has inspired
great thinkers and writers of ensuing spiritual movements,
including Marianne Williamson, the highly acclaimed author of A
Return to Love and Illuminata. In a new and never-before-published
foreword, Williamson shares the influence of Ouspensky's book and
Gurdjieff's teachings on the New Thought movement and her own life,
providing a contemporary look at an already timeless classic.

P.D. Ouspensky is a leading and influential figure in occult and
mystical thought and philosophy, most famous for his seminal work,
Tertium Organum. Here Ouspensky delves into the mystical symbolism
of the Major Arcana of the tarot; this book reads more like poetry
than a how to book, and will illuminate you imagination with
visions that ill add depth and meaning to your readings and
understanding of the mystery of tarot. Fully Illustrated with the
Wirth Tarot
This is one of the Great Books on the Great Mystery..... do you
have a mind balanced and broad enough to grasp it? Time is really
motion in extra dimensional space... this profound thought can
point us towards the actual physical location of the "Fourth
Dimension." Our perception confuses this Dimension with Time, but
with an evolution of consciousness, it can be percieved. This is
the next huge Evolutionary Leap, both for the individual and for
Mankind, in understanding the true nature of the Universe and
Reality. Peter D. Ouspesky was a widely traveled Russian born
philosopher, who made his way to London after the Bolshevik
Revolution. He was associated with Gurdjieff for many years, but
ultimately seperated both from the man and the philosophy.
Ouspensky's work stands apart and above, as writing of rare
lucidity and clarity.

"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.
