“Over the past 40 plus years I’ve seen Camp Caravan go from ideas to manifestation in a profound way. I’ve witnessed real doing, real action in the world. I’ve seen the Work in motion and it is truly inspirational for me. I have witnessed the evolution of the group and in its reflection of the process, I see the evolution of the individuals and of the group itself.”
Gurdjieff left a practical teaching, to be transmitted in a group or community medium. This can provide ideal opportunities to work towards building balanced relationships within ourselves, with others, and for the Work.
The Fourth Way teachings evolve to fit time and place. Here at Camp Caravan, we are open to that evolution. Participation may include Gurdjieff Movements, spiritual exercises, practical physical work, psychology, the arts, cosmology, the enneagram, meditation, presence, relaxation, sensation, service, and more.
Our Work together draws on the group itself as the leader.
Open Work Days
Work Days provide ideal opportunities for getting a taste of what it is like to work with a Fourth Way group. We invite you to attend these events that are open to everyone, whether it is your first time participating or you have long-standing experience. Held at Camp Caravan from early spring through late autumn, we announce these day-long events in the Camp Caravan monthly enews.
