Awakening. Quotes by R. Berton

According to the teaching, the fourth path, at the source of which was the famous mystic Georgy Gurdjiev, there are four states of consciousness. Each subsequent expands a person’s ideas about the world around him and about himself - from a deep “sleep” to complete “awakening”, from life in illusions to a state of penetrating awareness, the achievement of which in some traditions is called the discovery of the “third eye”.
The spiritual teacher Robert Earl Burton went this path and generously shares acquired knowledge. The book “Awakening” is a selection of his statements for a forty -fifth period, from 1970 to 2015. From it you will learn what different states of consciousness are. And how to work with lower centers - intellectual, emotional, motor, instinctive and sex, whose manifestations we often mistakenly consider our true “I” - to achieve the highest states. After all, the path to awakening always includes two elements: recognition of their true nature and gaining power over their lower essence.
Robert Earl Burton pays special attention to self -remembering - an important tool for awakening - the ability to constantly remember himself, to be present in every moment.
"Each appears in this life in a sleeping vessel, but this vessel contains a third eye in itself that it can wake up" (R. Berton)
