I am back from the library with a stack of books. Some on the reading list were not available and some I needed to place holds on. As far as Gurdieff I could only get the Beelzubub book, that said there was a shelf of commentaries so I grabbed most of them. I was able to place holds on Ouspenky and Mourieff. I am looking for a bit of advice around which to read first, or if there is an order I should observe. And if some might not be worth my time reading at all.
So here is the list:
Beelzubub's Tales to His Grandson by Gurdieff
Teachings of Gurdieff: A Pupils Journal by C.S. Nott
Gurdieff: An Introduction to His Life and Ideas by John Shirley
The Gurdieff Work By Kathleen Riodan Speeth
The Making of Man by Kenneth Walker
Psychological Commentaries on the Teaching of Gurdieff and Ouspensky by Maurice Nicoll (this is a three book series)
The Myth of Sanity by Martha Stout
The Mask of Sanity by Hervey Cleckley
Thanks to all for the feedback.
