I 'awoke' in 1995.
Gurdjieff said a man must receive multiple consistent shocks to awaken.
I received my first shock at the age of 16 in 1961. The first shock was debilitating and led to a total destruction of who I was and where I was going in life.
The shocks came in a flurry of daily bombardments and never ceased until about a year ago in 2016.
By 1995 I had my first awakening and by 1996 I had my first contact with a special counsel in the ethereal. The revelation was startling and totally unexpected.
Gurdjieff went on to say, once a man awakens he/she has no other choice but to accept the continuation of shocks multiple times daily or he/she will simply slip back into a state of slumber. So it was I remained awake through the persistent inundation of daily shocks racking my mind and body relentlessly.
Once reaching a state of level four or what is often referred to as having found one's true 'I', finding one's true esssence, one remains a level four and can never again go back in time and sleep.
It wasn't until much later upon joining the Gurdjieff society that I was able able to understand what was happening to me. Through following the 'path' I was able to assemble all the pieces of the puzzle I had collected through life's journey and hovering over life I was able to see the total picture regarding my life and my awakening.
Although I no longer actively participate in the Gurdjieff Society, I owe much to the Fourth Way regarding a certain peace I have found regarding my life's journey.
As with most organizations I have attended, they eventually found it in their interest to politely suggest I refrain from attending any more meetings since their determination was that they could no longer be of any help to me.
They were correct in there observations and recognized the fact before I did.
Regardless I owe them much and I extend my sincerest gratitude.
