“Relationships from Higher States of Being”
with Dina ElBadry
“When I first learned the Enneagram I was rather disappointed by my type, even more disappointed to know that it doesn’t change. But when I started studying Gurdjieff, I was so fascinated by the concept of Essence. I found a lot of inspiration in realizing that the personality isn’t Humanity’s only option, and that the human can be so much more.
The Sufi tradition teaches the same thing. In this presentation I aim to correlate The Gurdjieffian and Sufi teachings about The Full Potential of the Human Being. Gurdjieff referred to this as “Man Becoming Immortal.” In the Sufi tradition it is called “Al-Insan Al-Kamil.” I will also shed light on what our human relationships would look like if we approach those in our lives from a higher state of being. Coming from Essence is the way to share what is most sacred and uniquely loving in ourselves with the rest of the world.”
