It was gurdjieff hat said this over hundred years ago. He said many things that we now know are true..so inclined to believe him. With all this talk of mud floods ...I wondered if too much use could change frequency of the Schumann resonance or something similar. He said more than one....perhaps it was electricity from another source?
Never heard of Gurdjieff before, but after reading through excerpts from his work he strikes me as one of the esoteric types. Mildly interesting, but not my cup of tea.
One thing that stood out to me about his teachings is that he constantly speaks of “energy” but fails to define what kind of energy he’s talking about. This is a hallmark of esoteric types who don’t understand physics. There is no such thing as “energy” or “pure energy”. There are different types of energy: thermal, nuclear, kinetic, gravitational potential, electromagnetic, etc.
People who speak of “energy” without clarification simply don’t know what they’re talking about.
A discussion of gurdjieff’s writings on Reddit implies that he believed a number of bizarre ideas. Firstly, that there have been two prior civs that have been brought down by using too much electricity; however, these two civs are never identified, which is a major red flag. Secondly, he seems to believe that because our brains operate on electricity, then everything else using electricity affects our brains, chiefly by decreasing our willpower. Once again, no clarification or explanation is provided. If external EM fields significantly affected human brains, then said brains would go haywire every time someone was subjected to an MRI. Lastly, an apparent quote from him seems to be along the lines of “when we think, we are positively charged, when we do, we are negatively charged”. Whoever teaches this understands nothing of human biology or electric charge. The human body contains both positive and negative charges, uses both of them equally, and overall has a neutral charge.
Be very careful with people who are tauted as gurus or experts on the esoteric arts. They speak very artfully and convincingly of higher human consciousness, ancient civilizations, and “energy”, but a closer inspection of their writings reveals that they are mostly fluff and no substance, not to mention no scientific literacy.
You must remember he spoke in the language of the day. He said our sun neither heats or freezes..nothing that was known..but true. He was privy to teachings thatwe still don't understand and he certainly understood about aliens although to my knowledge he never spoke of them. All his students were told to study maharbarrata books. Carlos casteneda .the illiad..his father was a bard and could recite the epic of Gilgamesh and it was absolutely true to what was found .
He had amazing knowledge.....he said this world is a reciprocal world.we all eat the ones below us and yes our energy whether positive or negative is eaten by those above us. Here knew our purpose in being here but wrapped everything up so he was hard to decipher...he didn't give knowledge away you had to work mentally for it. Everyone was in awe of what he as a man could do..not speak..do.
He students wrote books..if you read what Gurdjieff wrote you wouldn't understand it unless you were at a certain level of being. I am only understanding bits now .
So you might understand something on an intellectual level but your being can be still that of a small child...the Mad professor? Tesla spoke of these sort of people...knowledge and being must grow at the same pace
