Maurice Nicoll: Forgotten Teacher of the Fourth Way

**Saturday, November 23, 1:00 – 2:30 p.m. CT

This presentation, based on Gary Lachman’s recent book Maurice Nicoll: Forgotten Teacher of the Fourth Way, will explore the unusual syncretic approach Nicoll brought to his teaching of the Fourth Way. Nicoll is unique in having Jung, Gurdjieff, and Ouspensky as teachers and having had close, personal contact with each of these important figures in esoteric history. We will look at how Nicoll incorporated elements of Jungian psychology and the teachings of Emanuel Swedenborg into his approach to Gurdjieff’s and Ouspensky’s ideas, as recounted in his best-known work, the Psychological Commentaries on the Teaching of Gurdjieff and Ouspensky as well as his esoteric interpretation of the Gospels.
