On June 23, 2025, Gurdjieff raised his pen from the grave to conclude the work he set out to finish, marking the dramatic - and unexpected - ending of his essay: "The Outer and Inner World of Man."

For context, readers will want to review the last pages of All And Everything Series 3: LIFE IS REAL ONLY THEN, WHEN I ‘AM.’

Continuing from the last paragraph where we left off,

“And so, among the people with whom I come in contact, the formation of the psychic factors necessary for the manifestation of attitudes diametrically opposed to me must inevitably occur in the following way:”

At the moment of this writing, the understanding created through the process of teaching real, exact “principles” in exact accordance with the structure of our cosmos, where I had next intended to elucidate the knowledge contained in the preceding “megacosmic” metaphor with the reader’s “microcosmic” position, that is, his position as a many-colored lamp as it were.

Instead, upon directing my psyche to mentate on these two aforementioned worlds from (the place of) my third world, the sharpness in contradiction between these two worlds (as a pair) in such drastic contrast with my third world -

At once observing this striking pair created such a brightness in my psyche that this white-hot illumination was forced to spill over into my third cup, to reveal to me for the very first time the degree of vivifying-ness of my own metaphorical cosmic concentration, and its general incompatibility with both the floating connection of interconnected wires and perhaps even in what is called the life of man.

I see that the intensity of the manifestation of my “psychic formation,” that is, the structure of laws created from the conscious initiative I used to impress upon others - just in the same manner as my previously mentioned repealed “hypnotic influence” -

Such intensity does not cause a blending or fusion as it does in mechanical life, and I see the reason why “pressing the most sensitive corn” has become increasingly less viable over this duration of time.

And, Dear Reader, as I have promised to disclose to you in generally accessible understanding, is here in the words of my unwitting accomplice:

“The vibrations given off by one light, if they are active, that is, of greater radiations or intensity (volume and quality) then those relative to lights nearest to it, then those vibrations will surge through the wires connecting them.

This new inflow to the receiving light will fill up to the limits of its totalities. The possibility of a change in atmosphere

( As a reminder, atmosphere which can dynamically change based on one’s present state, changing the possible spectrum of color and possible volume of expansion )

is dependent on an affinity, this affinity is in accordance with a relationship concerning

Degree of Contradiction between two lights and Distance (Intimacy) + Time.

Equations for this relationship can be easily generated.

The possible affinity or possibility of fusions between two lights for a change in the receiver’s atmosphere is based on, how similar the two lights are, the proximity of those two lights running counter to duration of time.

The receiver’s cup will fill at a speed based on their difference.

The cup will fill faster if there is a greater degree of contradiction.

The cup will fill faster based on prolonged duration of proximity.

And because nature is not wasteful, returns diminish and become negative after the receiver’s cup is full.

One can gain understanding from this if they consider why the followers of an awakened being usually do not awaken, while passersby making contact with an awakened being only in a few chance encounters in a lifetime often become awakened themselves.

I must say that if you observe how cups with varying degrees in quality come to meet, you will see the Law of Accidents in action, and know why it is that people in relationships meet at which moment.

And, why meeting at the “wrong moment” or in excessive duration is wasteful, harmful, and gives negative results. Thousands or millions of people know this innately and many privately have worked it out themselves.

Back to the formula at hand, we can imagine it takes a duration of time for the increased volume in the receiver’s cup to travel down the next wire to the next light.

What a waste it would be for a person with a high degree of quality to pour into a person connected to only 20 wires (or at least to have only 20 others in their regular vicinity.)

What potential gain to pour into one who connects to thousands or millions of wires (such as one like Ouspensky!)

Although there are significant limits, and although it is only suitable for “the first and second baptisms,” stages of human development, we can see why Gurdjieff “turns down his pitch” by directing his efforts into written form; into books.”

Having taken from my disposed of accomplice, refer back to what I have said:

The diametrically opposed actions from others towards me, and the duration of contact I have spent with them - in spoken and written form.

From The Author:

We know that a Conscious person can measure their life in breaths, and Gurdjieff writes that he has 1-3 years to live. Anyone who has read his work can work out that at the moment Gurdjieff calculates the cost of effort in explaining the principle he outlined in relation to the people with which he comes in contact, he determines he cannot afford it. He will not die like Mozart to complete Requiem.

We do not make decisions for a singular reason.

We make a number of considerations and derive from them a conclusion, a conclusive decision.

With that in mind, we can consider that Gurdjieff could at least reasonably expect that “after my death the principal aims of my life would be.. realized.” From this quote I have removed the word “certainly”.

Yes, his previous writings could be understood exclusively by those readers acquainted with his language.

Yes, he had not published in a way that is accessible to everyone.

Yet, by evidence of his quote (see the beginning of All and Everything Series 3,) his first series of writings contained his complete - or most of his - teaching in “stone” form.

Then as it is for a man who puts the world on his shoulders, there is consolation in recognizing that his students certainly have no trouble with general speak, and may be able to carry on these Conscious Labors.
