With her new practical guide for enlightened self-study, Cheryl Shrode-Noble wishes to inform, encourage, and empower you. She has spent over forty years studying esoteric, philosophical and spiritual disciplines and has verified that personal transformation and self-empowerment begin with enhanced self-knowledge. The focus of this book is for individuals to achieve heightened self-awareness using practical methods with wisdom derived from the Fourth Way system of esoteric psychology, which was taught by Gurdjieff and Ouspensky in the early 20th century. This system proposes there are four primary centers of influence within us, known as the emotional, intellectual, moving and instinctive centers. The esoteric concept of the centers, preserved in symbolic form throughout history, has remained relatively obscure and unknown. Symbolized by the four iconic suits in a deck of playing cards, the centers exist within us all. The author deciphers and elucidates the symbolism of centers in detail, guiding you to understand yourself and others with astonishing clarity. Learning about your personal centers of influence will help you gain enhanced self-knowledge to awaken to your essential nature and your authentic life purpose. Employing mindful self-observation as a practical method, gradually increases one's self-awareness. Mindfully observing the influences of our centers allows us to attain comprehension of our emotions, intellect, movements and physical senses. This also encourages us to recognize our natural talents, inherent tendencies, and innate abilities, as we shed artificially acquired traits, self-doubts and delusions. Mindfulness is the key to acquiring self-knowledge and self-awareness. Discovering your centers using mindful self-observation, will guide you to understand your feelings, thoughts, actions, and sensitivities to achieve command over your life. One is finally freed to awaken to one's true natural possibilities. The author puts esoteric ideas into practical terms and believes that awakening and enlightenment are certainly possible for those who possess the sincere desire to gain self-awareness and higher consciousness. She discusses the history of esotericism, the characteristics of the four primary centers, the importance of evaluating your personal center of gravity while balancing your centers, and the benefits of employing these concepts to awaken and become enlightened. Knowing oneself is the key to living one's life harmoniously in one's essential nature. These remarkable esoteric concepts, combined with mindful self-observation, have the power to lead you to your own miraculous awakening and enlightenment. She hopes her work will inspire your quest for self-knowledge and help you to awaken to your highest natural potential. "Your path is within you."
