The esoteric teaching known as "the Work" was introduced to the West by Gurdjieff early in this century. Pogson studied "the Work" for many years with Dr. Maurice Nicoll. Here she gives an account of how the principles of fully applying one's knowledge to one's daily life can be put into action.

According to the Johannine tradition referred to by Clement of Alexandria, it was believed that "Christ imparted the truth to James the Just, to John and Peter, after His resurrection". These three disciples were said to share the threefold task of continuing His work - it was said that James the Just, as Bishop of Jerusalem, carried on traditional Christianity, Peter was the organiser and ruled the Church, and John was said to have understood and preserved the spirit of the Teaching. They formed the Triad, which springs from and is closest to the One. There was a similar Triad in the Hermetic tradition in which three disciples of Hermes Trismegistus, Asclepius, Ammon and Tat, represented knowledge, power and love. The Johannine tradition also says that tehe secret spiritual teaching received by John from Christ was handed down orally and survives to this day. Hints of this teaching are found in the Fourth Gospel, the First Epistle of St.John and in a cypher in the Revelation of St.John. Beryl Pogson (1895-1967) was a pupil of Dr. Maurice Nicoll for nineteen years and his secretary for fourteen years. Many of her writings have been published only privately for the benefit of her students and groups. Now for the first time much of her Tea

THE TRUE MYTHA written work of the quality of G.I.Gurdjieff’s All and Everything, First Series: Beelzebub’s Tales to His Grandson can justly be classified as esoteric. While that description gives the book an intriguing cachet, it also implies that very few people will understand it. Nearly everyone needs guidance to comprehend much of it.Beryl Pogson’s talks on many of the potentially liberating messages woven so deceptively into stories that have been found to puzzle, irritate and occasionally ourage unprepared readers.Beryl Pogson had the knack of penetrating the layers of meaning in Beelzebub’s observations about Man and his place and role in the Universe. More significant, she showed how to use this knowledge in one’s everyday life to nourish the inner Self.The True Myth records in detail her instructions to groups of people studying Gurdjieff’s ideas. A notable feature is her use of “the law of analogy” to translate cosmic processes into methods of human psychological and spiritual transformation.

THE WORK is about applying what you know to your daily activities, rather than simply theorizing about abstract ideas of life. The author lived “the work life” and studied with Dr Maurice Nicoll for almost 20 years, beginning to teach a group at his request in 1955.The group had residential meetings at “Dorton House,” and it was there that people had a chance to experiment with what they learned.A level of community developed: group projects included painting a mural, building a summer house, and making a glass mozaic of the zodiac – all activities designed to bring out various talents in the group. It was a great opportunity for learning !This record of “The Work” has been published to help students – more than 50 years later – understand how the teachings of Gurdjieff, Ouspensky and Nicoll can be actualized.
