“So by this time we’ll assume that you know that you ought to Work. So we can talk about application of that kind of Work. How will you be when you Work, and do you make mistakes? Are you sure that you don’t make mistakes? Are you sure you know what Work is? Because if you’re not clear, this is now the time to talk about it.”
Mr. Nyland, August 14, 1973
Gurdjieff’s Teaching in the Groups of Willem A. Nyland
New York City / Warwick
Chardavogne Barn In the late 1960s, Mr. Nyland moved from New York City to Warwick, NY, where he purchased a large barn and 13 acres. There he conducted several meetings each week, had movements classes, and weekend workdays where simple physical activities were used to Work on oneself. In general, he encouraged and taught all members of his groups to apply Work in ordinary life.
Today, group meetings are held weekly at several locations, including New York City and Warwick. Classes in the Gurdjieff movements are held weekly in Warwick. The group continues to hold weekend workdays at the Barn, which provides an opportunity to practice the Gurdjieff Work in a simple setting. Members from across the United States meet at the Barn every Fall for an Intensive Work period.
There will be a series of open meetings in Warwick, New York on the ideas of G.I. Gurdjieff, followed by questions and answers. Meetings will start at 7:30 p.m. starting on Novermber 9, 2010 and continuing for the following Tuesdays of the month. Persons wishing to attend should contact Ms Elaine Knight at 845-258-4655 or email knight@nyland.org for location and directions.
