Much of our daily behaviour runs on autopilot.
#Gurdjieff taught us that humans operate like machines — driven by automatic #habits, conditioned #responses, and fragmented centers (intellectual, emotional, physical).
Recognising this mechanical nature isn’t meant to dehumanise us, but to inspire conscious self-observation.
When we become aware of our ingrained #routines, we get a chance to step in and choose differently.
Through the #practice of self-remembering — active, deliberate self-observation — we can interrupt these automatic processes and start “re-engineering” our inner workings.
Every #habit and #routine is like a pre-set program. Once we see them, we can work to transform these patterns into conscious #choices, turning our mechanical tendencies into intentional #actions.
This self-transformation isn’t just personal; it has collective power.
As individuals awaken, #society too can evolve from a collection of automatons into a #community of conscious, interconnected beings.
Think of self-work as maintenance for our inner machine.
Regular self-examination and inner work keep our system from running entirely on autopilot, allowing for continuous #growth and #evolution. This is the real meaningful human #PoW.
In essence, by acknowledging that “man is a machine,” we are empowered to break free from automatic programming and consciously evolve into integrated, dynamic beings.
The journey from autopilot to self-made is ongoing — and vital.
Do the work! Prove the work!
The Journey is the reward…
