Explorations in Active Mentation:
Re-Membering Gurdjieff's Teaching, A Grandchild's Odyssey
Keith A. Buzzell, 2006
ISBN: 0-9763579-1-7
$45.00
An exploration of Gurdjieff’s written Legominism, this volume investigates his teaching on the potential transformation of man. Utilizing scientific, geometric and Work principles, Explorations in Active Mentation focuses on Gurdjieff’s cosmology and on a number of the fundamental circumstances—emotion, hypnotism, the duration of being-existence, Ilnosoparno, and man’s topsy-turvy view of the Universe. The aim is to contribute to the formation of a reconciling force—a force powerful enough to evoke the emergence of real conscience in man.
A very impressive (and beautifully done) piece of work. I would say it is perhaps the most creative and profound exploration of Gurdjieff's teaching to appear in over a generation.

My burning question these days, “How can I penetrate deeper into the book [Beelzebub’s Tales]?” Reading Explorations has provided an answer to my question.
