"THERE DO EXIST ENQUIRING MINDS, which long for the truth of the heart, seek it, strive to solve the problems set by life, try to penetrate to the essence of things and phenomena and to penetrate into themselves. If a man reasons and thinks soundly, no matter which path he follows in solving these problems, he must inevitably arrive back at himself, and begin with the solution of the problem of what he is himself and what his place is in the world around him. For without this knowledge, he will have no focal point in his search. Socrates’ words, “Know thyself” remain for all those who seek true knowledge and being."

VIEWS FROM THE REAL WORLD, BY by G.I. Gurdjieff, p 43

No-thing

Don't worry,
There is Life after this discovery of your nothingness.
Freedom is there -
Just past that trying to crawl back into the tomb of forgetting
Like a frightened stink bug.

Stay where you can be seen.
Freedom is almost yours.
Keep moving forward into the clean fresh air
Of your real Being.
