About This Item

London: N Casswell, 1934. First Edition. . Hardcover. Good. The student was N Casswell of 24 Thurlow Rd London NW3. But also mentioned is Edna Crampton Regent St. The notebook which is in pencil begins Matthew 6 The Lords Payer in an Octave. "The right approach to prayer is through Self-remembering". etc "Cosmoses" "Seven Cosmoses- corresponding very nearly to the ring of creation". Notes from a programme of teaching running fron September 1934 to February 1936. Who the Tutor was is unclear, perhaps Ouspensky, Gurdjieff or Orage, JG Bennett, Maurice Nicoll or perhaps Jane Heap, an American publisher who moved in 1935 to London to set up a new study group. Mention of a "Sub Group". Mention of Kundalini a imagination which is definately a Gurdjieffian concept. Lots of diagrams on Hydrogen, octaves etc which I have never seen before. Drawing of an Ennagram. Contains what is probably a unique document relating to Gurdjieff, much of which is probably unique & lost. This diary and other non related notebooks were in several boxes of gurdjieffian books purchased in a surrey auction house in the 1990's. According to Yale University T I Casswell wrote "Gurdjieff, Ouspensky and Nicoll - A Living Teaching?" but it appears not to have been published. Reference to Casswell is apparently to be found amongst Maurice Nicoll's papers held at Yale University Library. Maurice Nicoll formed a group in London in 1931 so this perhaps holds the key. Also included are a number of T I Casswell's accounts books covering 1920's to 1960's
