This is more complicated than I was looking for for the Being thread. But it's worth looking at.
You cannot come to consciousness unconsciously. Directed attention supposes someone there to direct it--not just chariot without driver. All work begins with the control of attention. Madame Ouspensky
A man is unable to explain what he himself really is. The only thing you have to sacrifice is your suffering. No work can be done in sleep. You can't see above your own level of being. Gurdjieff
Gurdjieff said to Ouspensky: "You always think - I only now and then".
