“What if all the world you think you know
Is an elaborate dream?”
Becoming conscious – what does that mean?
You wake up, take a shower, eat something, drink a coffee and go to work. You may have a family, friends, hobbies, issues and even some kind of purpose. Your life may not be perfect, but this is your life. You have your hopes and dreams, you have your fears, secret desires and you certainly have an idea about the world we live in. You may believe in God, in more than one God, or you may believe in science. Or maybe you do not believe in anything because definitively there is this option too on the table.

Gurdjieff also speaks about a third circle, the “mesoteric” which is in the middle, respectively in between the esoteric and exoteric circles .
Think of an egg. On the outside is the eggshell. The eggshell would be the “exoteric” circle. The surface which is accessible for everybody. On the inside is albumen – or egg white – which would be the “mesoteric” circle. In the middle of the egg white, protected and hidden is the egg yolk which would be the “esoteric” circle.
According to Gurdjieff, people belonging to the “exoteric” circle are the so-called “mechanical humanity”, people exposed and living by the rules and will imply from outside, people living their lives unconsciously. Read more Esoteric, mesoteric and exoteric
