When
you look in the mirror, what do you see? Your self as you truly are?
Or a mask that you identify as yourself? On The Enneagram Tapes, you
will learn how an ancient tool for self-inquiry can help you uncover
the truth of your own being, and see that the possibilities for your
life are limited only by your misidentification.
A
Return to the Enneagram's Original Tradition With roots in antiquity,
the Enneagram is one of the world's most enduring systems for understanding
the human mind. Today it is popular among career counselors, religious
study groups, therapists, and even the parents of teenagers. On The
Enneagram Tapes, Eli Jaxon-Bear returns us to the Enneagramıs original
tradition, first revealed in modern times by the mystic Gurdjieff
after visiting the mystery schools in the Pamir Mountains of Central
Asia.
Everyone
says that they want to be happy, Jaxon-Bear begins. So why is there
so much suffering? The answer lies with our false identifications,
and the fixations that define and limit them. The Enneagram can serve
as a "wisdom mirror" that can help you look deeply into yourself,
and wake up to your true nature.
In 12 entertaining lectures, and with the help of men and women sharing
examples from their own lives, Jaxon-Bear guides you through the nine
points of the Enneagram, examining the fixations that are unique to
each one of them, and demonstrating how they move and relate with
each other.
There
are many works on the Enneagram which explain how to take advantage
of your type's strengths, work around weaknesses, assess the types
of others, and get along with them by "seeing through their eyes."
Now, with Eli Jaxon-Bearıs The Enneagram Tapes, the original purpose
of this once secret spiritual system is fully illuminated: to move
beyond fixation to freedom, and realize peace and self-liberation
in this lifetime.
