The group works with the principles that Gurdjieff introduced to the West, while also following the methods of his senior students, with particular emphasis on Rodney Collin and Ouspensky.

The Center have groups in New York, Los Angeles and Tel Aviv, and is led by a direct student of Alex Horn.

Our method of study is pragmatic and direct. Students are introduced to well-established methods that enable precise self-observation. Through this observation, self-knowledge can develop, and from it, a foundation for change.

The Center aspires to establish a small core group that is serious and deeply committed. No prior knowledge is required, though it is welcome if present.

We engage with art, philosophy, and religious texts from various traditions, as well as physical practices—but above all, with a precise effort to strengthen the higher part of the human being, which exists in everyone but is dormant and suppressed.

We also place special emphasis on the study of Jewish Kabbalah, and through the keys of the Fourth Way, many additional layers are revealed.


The talks below offer a taste of the type of knowledge that is explored and studied in the groups.


המרכז הישראלי ללימוד האדם את עצמו הינה קבוצת לימוד ע"פ המסורת של הדרך הרביעית עם דגשים יחודיים. הקבוצה עובדת עם העקרונות שגורדייף הציג למערב אך גם עוקבת אחר שיטת הלימוד של תלמידיו הבכירים עם דגש על רודני קולין ואוספנסקי. המרכז הישראלי הינו הסתעפות של הפעילות של המרכז בניו יורק ולוס אנגלס ומובל ע"י אחד ממקימי המרכז ותלמידו הישיר של אלכס הורן. שיטת הלימוד שלנו היא פרגמטית וישירה. התלמידים נחשפים לשיטת לימוד ידועות שמאפשרות התבוננות עצמית מדויקת, דרך התבוננות זו ידיעת העצמי יכולה להתפתח ודרכה בסיס לשינוי. המרכז הישראלי שואף להקים קבוצה גרעינית קטנה אך יסודית ורצינית. אין צורך בידע מוקדם אך אם קיים, יתקבל בברכה. אנחנו עוסקים באומנות, בפילוסופיה, בכיתבי הדתות השונות, בתרגול הגוף אך מעל הכל במאמץ מדוייק לחיזוק החלק הגבוה באדם, זה שנמצא בכל אחד אך רדום ונרמס. אנחנו גם נותנים דגש מיוחד ללימוד קבלה יהודית ודרך המפתחות של הדרך הרביעית רבדים רבים נוספים נחשפים. השיחות להלן מאפשרות טעימה מסוג הידע הנחשף ונלמד בקבוצות

The Center is a group of people working together on self-study through observation, using well-known tools according to the teachings of Gurdjieff and his direct students, including Ouspensky and Rodney Collin, as well as many other teachers, among them Alex Horn and Russell Smith.

If you’ve made it this far, it is likely that something from the search has already touched you. However, for the development of the subtle part within us that we call the soul, there is a need for a path, a guide, and a group.

Our work is based on ancient principles, and at the same time is revolutionary for those who are exposed to them.

The Center will continue to focus on self-knowledge through observation, drawing from many cultures and methods, including Kabbalah and Judaism, Buddhism, and Sufism. We focus on the Fourth Way, while also exploring and being exposed to various teachers and traditions.
