About This Item
Each talk starts with a clear proposition that Bennett expands to a profound discourse and then, usually, brings back to a simple practical task, which his audience, and today's reader, could use to help verify what he was saying.
These talks were given at a particularly creative period of Bennett's life, when he returned to the practice of techniques he had derived from Gurdjieff but was still strongly influenced by his experience of Subud in the preceding half-dozen years.
In characteristic fashion, Bennett had plunged wholeheartedly into the practice and dissemination of Subud, and the rapid worldwide spread of Subud in the late 1950s owed a great deal to his commitment and energy. Bennett's autobiography, Witness, describes the effect that the Subud experience had on his spiritual life, and people who knew him before and after this phase of his life can attest to the fact that Subud brought about a profound change in him. To put it simply, it helped him to discover his heart. This is apparent from these talks, which have an unmistakable compassion, even when they are presenting ideas that are unpalatable for people to face.
