In "Life is real only then, when I am" Gurdjieff gives answers to the fundamental human questions: how do I really live and what are the requirements to lead a real life? What is reality? What is existence? Has every man a given I or what must he do to acquire a real I? First of all, we have to accept that we are not awake, but asleep. The vast majority of mankind never awakens through its whole life. Only those are given the chance to become awake, who fight for it with their whole hearts and beings.

G.I. Gurdjieff allows the reader in these narratives to become acquainted with a person that is up to this day to many, who have for instance read his Beelzebub, still an enigma. You will meet a person, who is more often than not, as the esteemed Mulla Nassr Edin would say "into the deepest galoshes that have ever been worn on sweaty feet." In other words, you will meet G.I. Gurdjieff, the human being. The spiritual messages are hidden inside breathtaking adventures and a colorful description of really remarkable men and women and the time before and after the Russian Revolution.

A recording of the reading of the first edition, published in 1950. An additional bonus chapter, The Holy Planet Purgatory from the 1931 typescript, is included. Beelzebub's Tales to His Grandson is Gurdjieff's world-famous cosmological epic. It examines human life on Earth from the viewpoint of beings belonging to a distant world, led by the all-wise Beelzebub. Through this cosmological allegory—rich in humour, anecdote, and linguistic elaboration—Gurdjieff demonstrates a methodology for the spiritual growth of all mankind.

Gurdjieff refers to it as the first of his writings intended to head the list of his publications. He describes the activities of his organization, "The Institute for Man's Harmonious Development", and gives an outline of his other writings, like "All and Everything", consisting of 10 books in three series.

Meetings with Remarkable Men is Gurdjieff's autobiography that tells of his adventures and travels to achieve enlightenment and inner growth. Beginning with his childhood, each chapter is dedicated to one of the remarkable men or women who accompanied him on his journeys to search for hidden knowledge. Among them is his father, a Russian prince dedicated to the search for Truth, a Christian missionary who entered a World Brotherhood deep in Asia, and a woman who escaped slavery to become a trusted member of Gurdjieff's group of fellow seekers.

This is the third volume in the All and Everything series, consisting of four books. These audiobooks are written according to entirely new principles of logical reasoning and strictly directed toward the solution of the following three cardinal problems. The third volume deals with the assistance of the arising, in the mentation, and in the feelings of the listener, of a veritable, non-fantastic representation not of that illusory world which they now perceive, but of the world existing in reality.

As I wrote in the last chapter of the first series, I had given myself my word that during the whole of this time, I would do no writing whatsoever, but would only—for the well-being of the most deserving of these subordinate parts, slowly and gently—drink down all the bottles of old Calvados now at my disposal by the will of fate in the wine-cellar of the Prieuré, and specially provided the century before last by people who understood the true sense of life.

È il 1944, in una Parigi devastata dalla guerra, Gurdjieff continua a insegnare nonostante i pericoli e le difficoltà del periodo. Col gruppo di lavoro che gli è stato presentato da madame De Salzmann, il maestro armeno tiene regolari incontri nel suo appartamento, durante i quali risponde su questioni pratiche del lavoro e dà consigli specifici, esercizi e direttive.

During the mid-30s in Paris, Gurdjieff drew together four women: Solita Solano, Kathryn Hulme, Alice Rohrer, and Elizabeth Gordon - and formed a special, mutually supporting work group. In allegory he explained: You are going on a journey under my guidance, an “inner-world journey” like a high mountain climb where you must be roped together for safety, where each must think of the others on the rope, all for one and one for all. You must, in short, help each other “as hand washes hand”, each contributing to the company according to her lights, according to her means.

"My ballet is not a mystery," replied Mr. G. "The purpose of it is to present an interesting and beautiful spectacle. Of course, under the visible forms a certain sense is hidden, but I did not aim at demonstrating or emphasizing it. The chief position in this ballet is occupied by certain dances. I will explain this to you shortly".

"Le dirò un segreto: lo sforzo personale non è mai possibile tutto in una volta: è necessaria una preparazione. Fare fatica è necessario. Finché non ci riesce, uno dimentica, ricorda, dimentica, ricorda. Ma quando lei è seduta, calma, può pensare e cominciare a fare". "Trascrizione integrale degli insegnamenti trasmessi a Parigi in rue des Colonels-Renard 1941-1946". È il 1941, in una Parigi devastata dalla guerra, Gurdjieff continua a insegnare nonostante i pericoli e le difficoltà del periodo.
