Shownotes

The Three-Headed Man reflects on their spiritual paths, specifically their attraction to the teachings of G.I. Gurdjieff and his modern successor E.J. Gold.

They share personal anecdotes about searching for meaning through books and music before finding a community that uses conscious movement and communication as a method of growth. A significant portion of the conversation focuses on a specific spiritual exercise termed "voluntarizing a habit," where they attempt to transform unconscious fidgets into intentional actions. Through examples like touching one's nose or gardening, they debate the difficulty of maintaining awareness during repetitive physical tasks.

Ultimately, the speakers explore the challenge of self-observation and the effort required to remain present amidst the automatic behaviors of the human machine.
