Tertium Organum: The Third Canon of Thought, a Key to the Enigmas of the World<\/em>, 1912.\"Tertium<\/a><\/h5>\n

Ouspensky\u2019s experimental efforts to enter higher states of consciousness proved to him that an entirely new mode of thought was needed by modern man, qualitatively different from the two modes (classical and positivistic) that have dominated Western civilization for 2000 years. Tertium Organum is a clarion call for such thought, ranging brilliantly over the teachings of Eastern and Western mysticism, sacred art and the theories of modern science. With the publication of Tertium Organum in Russian, in 1912, Ouspensky became a widely respected author and lecturer on metaphysical questions. The American translation of Tertium Organum in 1920, won him widespread recognition in England, where he lived from 1921, and in America.<\/p>\n

Kinemadrama<\/em>, 1915. Translated into English as Strange Life of Ivan Osokin<\/em>, 1947.\"Strange<\/a><\/h5>\n

Written in Russian in 1905 as a \u2018cinema-drama,\u2019 and first published as Kinemadrama (St. Petersburg, 1915), Ouspensky\u2019s novel is based on the theme of \u2018eternal recurrence.\u2019 It tells the story of how the young Ivan Osokin is unable to correct his past mistakes, even when given the chance to relive his life. The last chapter powerfully portrays a man\u2019s shock at the realization of his utter mechanicality and characterizes both the promise and the demand of an esoteric school.<\/p>\n

A New Model of the Universe:
\nPrinciples of the Psychological Method in Its Application to Problems of Science, Religion and Art<\/em>, 1931.\"A<\/a><\/h5>\n

A collection of twelve wide-ranging and penetrating essays dealing with esotericism, symbolism, science, religion, higher dimensions, evolution, superman, eternal recurrence and other topics that anticipate many of the most significant psycho-spiritual questions of the twentieth century. Most of these extended essays were published separately in Russian before Ouspensky translated them to English and published this anthology in London in 1931 for the general purpose of attracting those interested in such questions.<\/p>\n

In Search of the Miraculous: Fragments of an Unknown Teaching<\/em>, 1949.\"In<\/a><\/h5>\n

Ouspensky met Gurdjieff in Moscow in 1915. Undertaken in 1925, with Gurdjieff\u2019s approval and in progress for many years, parts of the manuscript were read to Ouspensky\u2019s groups in the 1930\u2019s but it remained unpublished at his death in 1947. It was brought to Gurdjieff\u2019s attention by Mme Ouspensky and with his encouragement was published in 1949. This book is the precise, clear result of Ouspensky\u2019s long work in recording in an honest and impersonal form these \u201cFragments of an Unknown Teaching\u201d.<\/p>\n
